Last Sunday morning another of
the early settlers, Mrs. Mary Oberle
passed to her final reward after 8
more or less continuous illness of
several years. Grandma Oberle, a?
she was familiarly known to most of
our people, was highly esteemed by
all for her many qualities of court
esy and neighborllness. She has been
in declining health for several years
though at time had rallied and was
able to be out again. Her last illnes?
dates back a few months and hei '
death was not unexpected, as for the 1
past few weeks, she was confined, tc:
her bed unable to take nourishment
j The funeral occurred Wednesday!
( from the Methodist church and the
remains were laid to rest beside those
of her husband in the Eagle cemetery
-.The following obituary was prepared
by Rev. Zimmerman and read at the
: funeral service:
Mary Anna Stolz Oberle was born
I at Ottenhiem," In Baden, Germany
J the 25 day of January, 1S44, and de
parted this life October, 11, 192S
'aged, 84 years, 8 months, and 20
' days.
She came to Nebraska City when
i 2 years of age, and was united in!
i marriage to George Oberle of that
'place, March 17th, 1873. To this
iunion were born five children: Carl
ueorge, t rea, ituaoipn ana t;mii. sue
was preceded in death by her hus
i band, and son, Carl, who departed
this life at 6 years of age.
In the spring of 1873 they took up
a homestead one mile west and one
: miles south or where Eagle now
j stands, the farm now occupied by
j George Hoffmeister, where they re
j sided until the spring of 1914 wher
I they moved to Eagle, where she re
sided until the time of her death.
She leaves to mourn her departure,
one sister in Germany, one cousin
Mrs. Adolph Herman of Havelock and
her four sons, 10 grandchildren and
many friends.
Early in life she became a membc
of Evangelical Reformed Church of
Germany. There being no church of
this denomination in Eagle, she at
I tended the Methodist Church untl'
j declining health kept her from doing
' so. She never forgot the lessons and
jcatachism she learned early in life
;In our many visits with her we learn
, ed of her love for God, the church
and the ministry, and adminlsterec'
to her the Lord's supper on "severa1
occasions. For three years her health
has been very poor, being confinet
to her bed about half of the time.

Those who drove to Lincoln last
Saturday to see Nebraska defeat the
Montana 'Bobcats in a game or root
ball, had the privilege of seeinj
Claude Rawley in action in the Ne
braska line up during the latter part
of the game. Rawley was called up
on once to punt and did very well
and on another occasion he "dump
ed" a Montana ball carrier who had
broken through the left end of the
Nebraska line.
Rawley spent the summer at Ne
hawka working for C. W. Stone and
pitched ball for the Nehawka team
while here. He hails from Kansas
and we expect to hear considerable
from him as a Cornhusker football
player during the next couple, of
years. Nehawka Enterprise.

The Business Men's Gym claw
which has thrived here for the past
three years is guaranteed to make
strong men weak and weak men
wrecks, opened its fall and winter
sessions last evening at the high
school gym and the task of keeping
fit and retaining that youihful figure
was taken up in real ernest by the
members of the class.
William G. Kieck,, who in the
periods that he 'is not persecutinr
the wrong doer, is the instructor of
the class, was on the job but for
some reason there" was not the snap
that Bill used to1 show in the dave
when he was a youthful lieutenant in
the air service and could work out
the most snappy of erercises. In fact
the instructor allowed the class tc
get by with only a few of the more
modest and easy exercises and Claude
Smith and Henry Schneider did not
even lose a pound as the result of
the exercises given.
The class was opened by the lung
exercises led bv C. E. Ledsewav, al'.ns
"Chick" and "Silent Cal" and who
has some new and snappy yells for the
season, but which for lack of space
we are unable toi give in their full
horror. The residents near the high
school are warned on Thursday even
ing not to be alarmed at the crier
that may be heard from the building
as it is merely the class yells and
not some student receiving punish
ment. J
Speaking of punishment, John E
Turner, county treasurer, states that
the students in school should join the
class and learn what the real punish
ment Is. John at the session

The Ashland high school football
team under .the pilotage of Vint
Lawson, Omaha Central and Univer
sity of Nebraska football star, were
entertained yesterday at the baseball
park by the Plar.tsiii. iith high school
team and with the result that the
visitors annexed the game by the
score of 25 to 0.
In the opening quarter the game
of the Platters showed real form
and their offensive as well as defen
sive work was far better than that
of the visitors, the younger and less
experienced members of the local
squad working well against Lawson's
veterans in the opening part and
serving as a real menace to the Ash-
! land team. The passing work of
Plattsmouth was good in this portion
of the game.
The scoring W Ashland in the
early part of the second quarter came
when Ashland punted out of their
own territory where the Platters
were pressing them, the punt was
received by Herold who fumbled and
the ball was recovered by the visitors
and from the local thirty yard line
the march to the Platters goal was
commenced. A pass well placed
brought the ball to the Plattsmouth
fifteen yard line where on the second
play a line plunge by Hugo carried
the ball over. The try for point fail
ed. The closing part of the second
quarter again saw the visitors tally,
when a long end run by Hoffman car
ried the ball over, but the Ashland
player tripped over the sidelines to
lose his advantage and the ball was
put in play on the Plattsmouth twen
ty yard line and a flashing end run
carried the ball to the local five
yard line from ,where a line, plunge
with Kiser carrying the ball netted
another touchdown.
The third touchdown came just at
the opening of the final period of
the game when the Ashland team
was threatening the Plattsmouth goal
and a smashing attack of the visitors
placed the ball on the local two yard
line from where Hoffman slipped
around the end for the score, it be
ing good by inches from being forced
out of bounds.
The driving force of the visitors
and the breaks against them seemed
to dishearten the Platters and they
lacked the resisting power in the final
period to fight Into the enemy ter
ritory and the ball was in mid-field or
in the Plattsmouth territory the
greater part of the time. The at
tempts of the Platters in the last
half to punt out of danger was not
effective and gave Ashland a con
tinued advantage.
The final score came on a pass, and
end run in the final charge over the
line by Kiser for the final score and
the visitors made good their final
try for point to leave the score 25
to 0
The game was refereed by Nickles
of Malvern, Bezley of Peru, umpire,
and Perry of Doane, head linesman.
