At the January meeting of the
oonimunity club of Mynard. on last
Friday evening there was the largest
crowd in attendance since the be
ginning of the organization last fall.
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

' 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

Mynard on Feb. 9th and J&th. at

being a mock trial of a prominent
farmer who had been arrested for
lobbing the soil.
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. Wise, attorney for prosecution.

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.

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. We have them
at $160 less the
hundred, for our finest Ford Overcoats and we guar
antee them to be worth it and to give perfect satisfac
tion for several seasons of wear.
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.
Come in and make us prove it! We have Febru
