Soeittf tb oum VOL. No. XLVI PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, FEBR. 20, 1930. NO. 6 Tri-County Poultry Show to Come Here Directors at Meeting Here Elect Offi cers and Select This City for the 1930 Show The directors of the Tri-Countv Poultry and Pet Stork association. comprising Cass. Saunders and Sarpy counties, met on Saturday evening at trie Hotel Rilev and completed the task of the election of their officers a rid also decided on the show for 1930 being held in this city. The directors and officers of the association have been more than pleased with the initial show that was held here last December when everything was all that could be asked save the weather and this year the officers hope to be able to set a date earlier that will insure better weather conditions for the show. The officers of the association se lected for the year comprise the fol lowing executive members in addition to the directors: President S. Ray Smith. Weeping Water. Vice-President N. A. Morrow, Plattsmouth. Secretary-Treasurer D. D. Wain- scott. Weeping Water. Superintendents of Show James Reed. Papillion and R. N. Houser, Wahoo. This year it was voted to have a licensed judge here to pass on the entries at the show, something that tbey have not done at the previous shows. The directors are very apprecia tive of the fine treatment that they received here at the hands of the Plattsmouth people, the splendid spirit of co-operation that was shown during the entire time by the citi zens and the fine response that the business houses of this city and Weeping Water made, in the special prizes for the show. The location of the show was the best that had been enjoyed as the American Legion Community build ing proved an ideal place for the holding of the show and ample to care for the exhibits. With any kind of good weather for the 1930 show it is expected that the entries will be much larger than last year as many of the poultry raisers in this locality were unable to get in to place their exhibits.

Writes of Old Days in This Community James Gilmour of Ulysses Tells of "Earthquake" and Other Old Time Incidents. Editor Journal: In regard to the eartquake that visited Plattsmouth in 187 6, you can tell Mr. E. C. Ripple and Frank Rauen that I am another survivor of that same quake, and was among those that stampeded, at the old high school, on that (to me) memorable occasion. I lost my cap and dinner pail. I was on the second floor and we started down the big stairway pretty orderly, but before we were half way down, the pressure from above became so great, that we just stampeded, and came down those stairs like a thousand of brick, and poured out of the big east entrance, and down the outside steps to the ground. It was a miracle that no one was killed. During the stampede down the inside stair. I found myself next to the big banister on the inner circle of the stair and I sure hung on to that banister all the way down. When I hit the main floor, I lost my banister, and also my footing, but was up and going like a scared jack rabbit in less than no time. It was no time or place to be layin' around on that floor. I tell you. I never got a scratch, but the wind was knocked out of me for a few minutes. The first thing that us kids in my room saw, to get scared about, was when the old tin lids that were used to stop up the stove pipe holes in the chimneys, fell out, and the sut from the chimneys just flew all over the room, and that scared everybody stiff, but the teacher held the door shut, and quieted us, before letting us leave the room. I also remember the big rain, that Mr. Rauen spoke of that happened just before the quake. Ivan Holmes, Will Howland and I used to eaten crawdads and turtles, under the old bridge on Main street, just east of where Wescott's store is located now. My father was one of the first custom ers of the Wescott boy's father, when the elder Mr. Wescott first located in Plattsmouth. Mr. Wescott's motto was, One price, and no monkey busi ness. That just suited Dad. I used to chum with Fred and Charley Mor gan, when their father, Capt. Rans Morgan, ran the steam ferry boat, and would tie the boat up at night at the foot of Main street near where the Burlington depot is now. I have been a constant subscriber to the old Journal for 37 years, or since 1893 when I left Cass county and came west. There is nothing like the old home paper, to keep one in touch with the old friends, and it was a pleasure to me to read Mr. Ripple's and Mr. Rauen's account of the earthquake in 1876, and would like to hear from some of the others that went through that same exper ience. I was 7 years old at that time. JAMES GILMOUR.

Mrs. F. G- Coryell to Head Better Homes Movem't Local Lady Will Have Charge of the Work in Cass County Appoint ed from Washington. Mrs. F. G. Coryell has been, ap pointed to head a committee of local citizens for the purpose of planning a Better Homes Campaign in Cass county. This appointment was made from the national off ice. of Better Homes in America in Washington, D. C. which each year sponsors a nation wide program for the improvement of housing conditions. The organization is headed by Secretary Wilbur who succeeded President Hoover as its president. Mr. Hoover now serves as honorary chairman. Dr. James Ford is in active charge of the campaign. Better Homes in America is a non commercial, educational organization which has for its object the improve ment of housing conditions and the promotion of a wholesome type oj home and family life. Its program is adapted to local needs by each of the thousands of committees which have been established in eities, towns and villages throughout the country. The campaign is sponsored locally by the Parent-Teacher associations, women's clubs, civic associations, and in some communities by schools and colleges, as a part of their educational pro gram. This is done in the study of home economics, manual training, civics, English and art. A man or woman who is active in civic affairs is appointed in each com munity to serve as chairman of the Better Homes Committee for that place. This chairman then selects a committee of representative men and women to conduct the campaign. These campaigns vary according to the size and conditions of the com munity, and include programs of lec tures, demonstrations, and contests. Wherever possible a house is plan ned and built, or a suitable one bor rowed and furnished. In this way families of modest means are encour aged toward home ownership and are shown how a house of good design and construction can be built at a cost within their means. Through such demonstrations prospective home owners receive many helps and sug gestions for the planning, purchase or building of homes, and amny fam ilies are inspired to make necessary improvements in their homes. CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY From "Wednesday's Dally Yesterday was the twenty-seventh wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Meisinger and in honor of the event a number of the relatives and friends joined in a very jolly party last evening, which was a re minder to the guests of honor of the pleasant anniversary.

The members of the jolly party on departing for their homes joined in the wish that Mr. and Mrs. Mei singer might enjoy many more such pleasant events in the future. Those who attended were: Mr. and Mrs. Michael Ilild. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Libershal and famil5 Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Lorenz, Mr. and Mrs. John Micin and family, Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Gjerde and family of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. P. P. Meisinger. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Sprecher. Mayor and Mrs. John P. Sattler, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Meisinger. Mr, and Mrs. H. J.

Courtnage, 19, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Courtnage of Albion. Neb., committed suicide Monday night by taking poison one week after being released from Jail, where he served a 60-day term on. an assault charge for threatening a cousin who had spurned his attentions. All Welcome to Attend the C of C Luncheons Members as Well as Directors Can At tend, Only Requirement Being Day's Notice in Advance The bi-weekly noon-day luncheons of the Chamber of Commerce held on the first and third Thursdays cf each month are open not only to the direc tors, but to any individual member of the organization, the only require ment being that he notify the presi dent at least one day in advance and. of course, pay the "0 cents per plate charge, the same as is paid by the directors themselves. Time was when Chambers of Com merce over the country generally paid the luncheon costs of tiieir board of directors, which became sort of exclu sive luuncheon clubs and served to defeat more than aid the progress of the community. Then came the advent of the paid secretary and this too has its draw backs. The crying need is for men who are willing to give time from their own busy v.ork-aday lives to put over a program of consequence. And so Plattsmouth evolved back to the old fashioned order of things a board of directors, composed of nearly two score of the city's business and professional men. agriculturists living nearby, whose interest centers in Plattsmouth, and representatives of the hierling class. There about the democratic festive board gather these directors to discuss the prob lems and map the course this even more democratic organization is to pursue. And there around this same festive board any member will find the same royal welcome and be able to sit in on an hour and a quarter of good fellowship as often as he desires throughout the year. When the present Chamber was re organized and combined with the Ad club, the question was advanced at one of the annual meetings con-1 cerning luncheon expense and it was the unanimous choice of the officers that they and their associate board of directors would rather pay for their meals than have the organization do it for them. And the plan has work ed wonderfully in the more than two years it has been in operation. Any member who wishes may come to this Thursday's luncheon if he will give the president at least 24 hours' advance notice. This is necessary in order that the restaurant people may know definitely how many to prepare for. Come up and sit in with the directors at their noon-day luncheon Thursday. It may be you have some thing on your chest that you don't care to unfold in a written communi cation perhaps an idea or a sugges tion that you can best set forth in person but whether you have or not, you are welcome at any and all times to attend the luncheons of YOUR Chamber of Commerce. The dinner table is the open forum of discussion. from which evolve many good sugges tions.
