'Lawless Legion'
Gives 'Ken' His
Greatest Role
Star Leads 10.000 Head of Cattle Over
Lawless Plains in Thrilling
Outdoor Adventure.
The picture at the Parmele the
atre Friday and Saturday has been
without a doubt designe dand con
structed for audience purposes only.
It does not contain any especial moral
lesson nor does it portray a phase of
history but for real pulse throbbing
thrills and action it beats anything
this reviewer has ever seen.
All of this refers to "The Lawless
Legion" in which Ken Maynard and
his horse Tarzan are the principal
factors. This western star seems to
have won a wide range of fans for
there was not only a huge crowd but
were of all ages, young, near young,
and those not so young, and all are
enthusiastic in claims. Some even
applaud when some spectacular bit of
daredevil work was enacted. There
is no question this boy can ride.
"The Lawless Legion" is presented
in such a novel manner that one
doesn't stop to think about it except
to wonder how Ken can do the things
he does and still live to draw his pay
check. The story tells of a community, be
cause of drought find it necessary to
find better grazing lands for their
cattle. The only thing that stands
in the way is a band of organized
and notorious cattle thieves who
have been operating through a par
ticular stretch of land thru which
the cattle must pass. The commu
nity in a mass meeting decide to
trust their pooled herds with a man
then resting in jail because of dis
turbing the peace.
The cattle are pooled and (there
must be all of ten thousand) en
trusted to the young man (Ken) and
in turn he is tricked out of the en
tire herd. Of course he loses his popu
larity almost immediately, but he sets
out to get them back again he does
too. but herein lies the story.
In the bandits' rendezvous he and
Tarzan give the audience some real
wild west riding. There are two par
ticularly fine pieces of stunt work in
addition to the fine cattle scenes and
that is Ken when he is tied to a wild
horse with his head dangling about
the horse's heels. The other is a close
viek of Ken driving a pair of fast
running horses while standing on an
iron rfod connecting two wheels.
Others in the cast of 'The Lawless
Legion" give adequate performances
They include Nora Lane. Paul Hurst,
J. P. McGowan, Frank Rice and How
ard Truesdell. Howard Brown as the
director has woven a fast interesting
story in one of the pictures of its
kind.

LIGHTNING DOES DAMAGE
During the severe rain Tuesday
afternoon shortly before 3 o'clock,
lightning struck at the residence of
C. O. Carlberg in the south part of
the city and did considerable dam
age. The lightning or the vibration
of the thunder caused the breaking
of a window in the home and from
near which Mrs. Carlberg had mov
ed just a few moments before the
bolt struck. A mirror in the house
was also broken by the lightning
bolt and the family very badly
frightened by their experience with
the force of nature's electrical power.

The only source of income that
the Red Cross has in the peace time
activities is that which comes from
its membership drives and special
calls that some overpowering disaster
makes necessary, but the immediate
relief and the prompt rush of sup
plies to the scenes of disaster comes
from the funds that are accumulated
in the membership campaigns such

the business interests better, as well
as the social and other interests, such
as schools, and churches. Rev. Ralph
Pickham, new minister of the Con
gregational church, was present and
was asked to give his impression o
the city. He said in substance, that
he was greatly pleased as well as his
good wife, that their lot had fallen
in Weeping Water, where already
they had formed many strong friend
ships, that they were liking the town
and the work, and also stated that he
and wife were anxious to do all they
could for the best interests of the
city
The matter of straightening out of
the highway passing through Weep

ner in the north portion of the town
just at the end of the pavement lead

ter of making the corner wider at
the homes of J. D. Ambler and Carl
Day, which would do away with what
is now a dangerous corner. Other
matters were taken up and the fol

Our ability to serve you efficiently and economically
has been greatly increased thru merger with the
H. M. Soennichsen Grocery, retention of the pow
erful I. G. A. buying connections and consolidation
of all our efforts in one channel to the end that we
may bring to our door hundreds of new customers.
Last Saturday's sales the second week-end in our
enlarged store zoomed to new heights, proving
that people are very much alert to saving money.

The coffee market is lower this week and our prices on all
brands have been dropped from 1 to 3 cents per pound. One
thing you can depend on at Black and White and that's just
this: Whenever the market quotations on any commodity are
lowered, we fall right in line by reducing our selling price,
legardless of the size of our stocks on hand. Our regular low
coffee prices have saved you money now you can buy still
lower. Note the quotations and compare with other stores!

RAIN CHECKS ACTIVITIES
The rain that has fallen 'since
Monday has had the effect of check
ing a large part of the community
activities, the road construction pro
gram being held up for the past three
days and with little prospect of
much improvement for the rest of
the week and the bad weather has
also held back the work on the new
Missouri river bridge. Many of the
farmers were preparing to start the
corn shucking season but the rain
has made it impossible to get in the
fields. The soft roads have also
caused much annoyance to the travel-
ng public and local people who have
found that it is far from a pleasant
task to try and get out on the high
ways in this kind of weather. Not
the least the weather man has put
the "kibosh" on many of the box
socials and entertainments that were
arranged in the rural schools of the
county and disappointing the teach
ers and puptls. as well as the patrons
of the school. But all will be well
bye and bye as the sun cannot always
remain behind or the rain make
travel impossible.
BOX SOCIAL POSTPONED
The box social that was to have
been held at the school house In dis
trict No. 42. of which Miss Eliza
beth Nolting is teacher, on Friday
evening, has been postponed. The
announcement of the date for the
social will be given later.

that has prevailed, the
attendance and the success of the
event was far greater than that of
last year.
The opening feature was the sup
per on Monday evening and where
some 430 were served during the
evening with the splendid menu that
the ladies had prepared and on this
evenine as last night the needle
work, candy and Bingo booths alhdid
a fine business and the candy and
needlework were all disposed of as
well as the booth where home made

Last evening the ladies were dis
appointed in the fact that the Herb
Smith orchestra of Lincoln which was
to have played for the dance was un
able to reach here on account or roaa
conditions and the ladies made a very
pleasing substitution in the Knites
of Melody of which Charles jvowaceK
is the director. Despite the rain and
uncomfortable weather condition a
verv lanre number attended the
dance and had a most enjoyable time.
The prize waltz was won by Ches

APPRECIATE CHORAL UNION
From Wednesday's Dally
Desnite the inclement weather
yesterday, the rehearsal of The
Messiah was well attended last eve
ning. This is a fair indication of
the appreciation of the members of
the Choral Union of the opportunity
to take part in the presentation of
the "Sweetest Story Ever Told.
On account of the impassable con
dition of the roads Prof. Logan could
not attend, but Miss Lindsay, Di
rector of Music of Plattsmouth City
Schools filled his place admirably.
We hope by united, earnest endeavor
to put vPlattsmouth near the head
of the class in the finale.
