This fact being most pleasing to those who have put forth a great effort to have such an organization in the community and a place in which to comfortably meet for pleas-j urable as well as beneficial gather-1 ings. The community is fortunate in ! having men. who are proficient in various lines of endeavor, for when they wanted the plastering finished bo a3 to be able to use it, for this meeting, they went in and finished it, in a masterly manner. Their finished work drew forth many com plimentary remarks from many of i the members of the community. With Mr. W. F. Nolte presiding, the business meeting opened with community singing, followed by the leading of the minutes of the last meeting. These being approved the project chaiiman (gave reports on tw ! Coldenrod Staudy Club ami the Mer ry Workers' Club. She reported that 'the Provesssive Studies, issued by ;tho Progressive Dept. of Agricultural j n d lege, and that they contributed ! ?2-: to apply on the cost of planter- ' ' ing the community building, ami J had, also, paid $21.30 on silverware ! for the community kitchen. The Merry Workers have taken up the. project work with leaders, who at-1 tend achievement day, at Weeping i ! Water, each year, and are there in structed a king various lines, and re-j turn witii the outlined work, to the i club. At piesent they are enjoying' "Short Cuts in Clothing Construc tion." At this time, an invitation' was extendid to the Mynardites. to attend the Happy Hundit d supper, j it Platt:n";uth on the evening ofj February 7th. Mr. L. R. Snipes, Co. agent, gave a snort talk on the Ne braska wheat pool, after which he made two announcement:;.' First The engine school is to be held at Mynard on Feb. 9th and J&th. at which time the Goldenrod Studv ! Club will serve dinneis. Second A pruning demonstration will be held I on Feb. 14th at 1:30 p. in. at the farm of James Warga. south oft : l lattsmouth. j J The business meeting was brought! to a close, and the following seb j tions rendered: i Vocnl solos Jack Vallery.

The cast of chartccrs was as fol lows: Hiram Hippocket, defendant. My ron G. Wiles; I. L. Stickem. judge. Raymond Cook; Will K. Ch atem, attorney for defense. Will F. Nolte; I. M.

Mrs. Fred Druecker. Verle Smith,, John Wooders and C. I). Geary. j Mr. L. D. Hiatt deserves much ' credit for his skillful work in creat ing the makeups of the various types,' of character. in tne playlet tno usual court pro cedure was followed, and in the ex- ain i ua i ion ami impaneling oi me i jurors, the audience was very en-' thusiastic in their applause which the sheriff on several occasions, re stored to order. And when Swen Swanson (Glenn Wiles) was called forward, for questioning the entire audience was in a roar of laughter. His makeup was that of a typical Swede farmer, and he proved him self truly honest and sufficiently ignorant to be a juryman. Sherman W. Cole, as Patrick O'Hooligan, dressed as an old Irish farmer, play ed his part equal to any Irishman. C. L. Wiles, as Professor U. Knowitt, played his part in a very dignified manner. The only witness for the defense was Royal P. Smith, as B. A Tfumhinr wlio wore eliin-wti itl.-oi- I glasses, smoked a pipe. He spoke in a high cracked voice and brought down the house with applause and laughtes, which he sheriff, with great difficulty, restored by "Order in the Court-room." The Judge, Raymond Conk, was very dignified with his gray-streaked hair, sideburns and glasses, dis played great knowledge of carrying on the court proceedure. Myron G. Wiles as Hiram Hip pocket, and defendant in the case, had a ridiculous make-up of a poor, hard-working farmer, gray-haired and face lined with deep wrinkles, and assumed a very listless attitude. He played his part exceedingly well. i H ci H il Vvl i I Closing! Hates! S. Davis Prompt Bottom Sear!

Davis Files for State Representative Present Member of the lower House Will Seek Re-Nomination on Republican Ticket. Filing has been made by Troy L. ; Davis of W.eping Water as a can jdidate for the republican nomination ' for state representative from the ' sixth district comprising Cass eoun ! ty. Mr. Ilavis is the present reprcsen Itative from this district and which 'if successful in the coming primary and election w'ill give him three I terms in the legislature, as he wan I elected in 192:.' to the state legisla ture and again in llUJtt and while u j member of the last legislature was a member of many of the important j committees including lhat of the re publican committee on committees, I th" most powerful organization com imittee of the house and was also on the bridge and highway committee. Mr. Davis has long been active in the political circles of the county and lias served as mayor of Weep- ! ing Water on many occasions as well as being the stale representative. ! In his service in the legislature Mr. Davis made a very excellent re cord in support of progressive mea sures and in matters that were of interest to the pcoph of his district lie was particularly active and alert and always ready to render what ser vice was possible for the interest of the people of his district and the tax payers of the state. Mr. Davis was one oi the leaders of the legirlature in the legislation favorable to the construction of the state and federal bridges over the Missouri ii( r and used his influence in the legislature to see that this legislation was successfully put through and while we do not have a bridge a" yr t over the river it is not the fault of the Cass county repre sentative. I vrca8s I Yes we bave none! But tbere was a man in our store tbis week " wearing one which cost him that figure at the Palace Cloth ing Store, in Kansas City and it looked like it was worth it, too.

They always look different Ask the man who has one! From $60, we can take you down at $5.00 a step as low as $ 1 5 and furnish you an absolutely reliable garment at every step.
