Eagles Have Great Time at Picnic Sunday Fine Dinners Served and Sport Pro gram of Unusual Interest is Staged by Both Aeries. From Monday's Dally Yesterday found a very happy, merry bunch of Eagles assembled at the South Omaha picnic grounds, the event being the annual Platts mouth Eagles picnic, held this year in conjunction with North Omaha Aerie No. 3 8. Safe to say, there was the largest bunch of Eagles assem bled there that have been together for many a day. The crowd was es timated at nearly five hundred and a hundred and forty cars were count ed on the grounds at one time. The basket dinner at the noon time was the biggest event of the day. Basket after basket of picnic dain ties were spread over the tables sup plied by the local Aerie and the eat ing continued until long past the al loted hour. Delicious lemonade in the hands of Lynch and Burrows re freshed dry throats all through the day. Following the dinner, the North Omaha and Plattsmouth Aeries clash ed in nine fast, hard fought innings of baseball, Plattsmouth winning by a score of 9 to 4. Both teams deserve much credit for their fast team and ground work. In the girls and boys' races, the' Plattsmouth contestants lost all but one. The men's free for all went to Omaha, as did the same event for the ladies. In the fat man's race, tiny Doc Schabrock, of Omaha, watldled in for first place. All records were smashed in the latter event. Davis, of Plattsmouth. took the honors in lost their event to Omaha. In the ladies' slipper kicking con test, Plattsmouth ladies certainly de veloped some terrific kicks, but all to no avail Omaha again placed first. In the horse shoe game, the local boys took the field on 197 points to Omaha's 107. Then came the tug o' war. Platts mouth "heavies" tussled, heaved, slipped, gnashed teeth and all but' plowed the field, but they wouldn't take defeat. For three long minutes the heavy rope only quivered. Then with a sudden heave the Omaha team came across the goal line and Plattsmouth had won. Nine local boys lay sprawled in the sand, but they were content for they had won for themselves a feed and a smoker to be glyen in the near future. The day closed with short, snappy talks by a number of the leaders of the aeries, among them our own Past Worthy President John P. Sattler. A great time was reported by all and preparations will soon be under way for even a bigger and better pic nic in 1929.

Philip H. Meisinger was married here to Miss Elizabeth Lutz. also a native of Illinois, and their life has been one of loving affection until the ties of love were so rudely severed by the calling of the hus band to the last rest. Mrs. Meisinger and three children, Mrs. E. H Tritsch, Mrs William H. Tritsch and Carl C. Meisinger, survive his passing, the daughters resided here and the son at Lincoln. There are also two grand children, Adelia Tritsch Meisinger and Wilma Tritsch and one great grandchild, Elizabeth Marie Mei singer.
