ter some shopping as well as visiting
with friends for a few hours.
Walter Miller and Emil Meislnger

Greenwood from northwest of town
on last Wednesday and Thursday.
L. C. Marvin was getting the elec
tion booths in readiness and erecting
them at the garage of Matthews &
Petersen, for the election which
comes this week.
Leo Peters was over to Omaha on
last Tuesday with a load of hogs for
the market and which brought him
a very fair price, as they were ex
cellent porkers and well finished.
E. L. McDonald and the wife were
over to Omaha on Thursday of last
week, where they were visiting with
friends and Mr. McDonald was mak
ing some purchases for the store
here.
A. R. Birdsall was a visitor in
Murdock last Tuesday, where he was
called to look after some business
matters for a short time, he driving
over to the neighboring town in his
auto.
Mrs. E. L. McDonald still remains
very poorly and many days cannot
get from her bed and home, but
whenever she is feeling so she can,
she likes to get out and get the sun
shine and fresh air.
County Commissioner Fred II. Gor
der, who is county commissioner for
the west end, and who has also filed
for re-election, was looking after
some business for the county in
Greenwood one day last week.
John Kelley was in town last Wed
nesday, looking after some business
and getting ready for the farming
season. The kiddies at the Kelley
home have just gotten over the
measles only to take the chicken pox,
which has kept the home nearly like
a hospital for some time past.
W. E. Newkirk is rustling over the
county selling the wheel garden

community, for the milk will be de

evening.
The merry ring of the hammer at
the shop of S. S. Petersen, both of
himself and his workman, W. Cope,
denotes that spring is here and that
the farmers are getting after their
spring work. There is also this, that
Sophas is doing good work or they I

last week at a miscellaneous shower be included in the newly formed Dis-

ried on last Friday, formerly Miss
Margaret McCartney, near Waverly,

marriage with Mr. Donald McKin-
non. The young people will make

their home with the groom's father,
and they will farm together.
The I. O. O. F. have been making
pome extensive repairs on their
building where the corner of the
front had slumped away and was
"crumbling. A new corner was con
structed, with Fred Ethrege assist
ing and now the building is in fine
condition, which makes not only the
building strong, but adds to its ap
pearance and increases the value and
long life of the structure.
After having returned from their
trip to California, O. F. Peters and
Glen have been at the farm, where
they have been tearing down an old
house which has long since lost its
usefulness. They are making the
farm look rather spiffy, and have
moved a building to another place,
thus making some nice changes,
which have added much to the ap
pearance as well as the convenience
of the farm.
Visited Friends Here
Forest Clymer, who has made his
home in Los Angeles for a number
of years, where he has been conduct
ing a play house on one of the piers,
which he disposed of a few weeks
since, drove back to the old town for
a visit with the friend3 of many
years, whom he has here.

one evening, saying he would bring
three passengers to Omaha for $35

After having visited here for
time, he will again return to the
west, driving as he came.
Making a Beauty Spot
The Burlington, which has some
ground just across the track from
their station in Greenwood, which is
level, has had the same plowed and
gotten in shape for landscaping. Up
wards of 500 tulip plants have been
placed in this plot and as the season
advances other beautiful flowers
and shrubs will be planted. This is
a very sightly place and will make
an excellent beauty spot on the road
way and perhaps not be equaled by
anv ether station between Lincoln
and Omaha.

FRED HOFFMAN.
Will Visit at Plattsmouth
A delegation from the Greenwood
Commercial club will on Thursday
of this week be guests at the dinner
which is given each Thursday by
the members of the Plattsmouth
Chamber of Commerce and will talk
of things which interest the towns
in common, including the securing
of a good hard surfaced road from
Greenwood to Plattsmouth, and also
if possible the routing of U. S. 34
west from Plattsmouth to Greenwood.
This is the federal all-paved road
across Iowa and with the bridge at
Plattsmouth affording direct outlet
into Nebraska and a short cut route
to Lincoln, will see much traffic dur
ing the tourist season of the year.
It is the route followed by the Hard
ing highway and the securing of it
through this section of the county
would be a great thing. Among those
who are expecting to attend the din
ner are Rex Peters. George Bucknell,

walked in and roughly ordered
"hands up!" The bankers, Charles
Draper, receiver for the bank, and
a neighbor cashier, just sat and
stared incredulously. They looked at
each other and shook their heads.
"Can't you see you're being held
up?" explained one of the robbers.
"That's too bad," said Draper. "This
bank has been broke since a year
ago. There's not a penny in the
vaults."
The robbers backed out the door
staring somewhat incredulously
themselves.

violation of his constitutional rights
by unlawful invasion of his home,
Alfred Reames filed a motion in dis
trict court Monday, asking suppres
sion of alleged evidence to be used
against him in a liquor trial pend
ing on appeal. While admitting he

which he has on the farm and which
he rents to some parties who are
farming lands nearby.
John B. Skinner and R. M. Coat-
man were over to umana a numoer
of days last week, where they were
hauling stock for the farmers and
bringing back goods for the mer
chants of Alvo.
Sterling Coatman, who lias been
making his home in the rooms above
the hardware store since their mar
riage, last Wednesday moved to the
Dimmitt house where Rev. Strake
was formerly domiciled.
A. I. Bird was called to North
Lincoln last Sunday to look after
some business ana also to visit witn
relatives and friends. The day was
inviting and while he was able to
look after the business, all the folks
were away.
With the completion of the par
sonage which the ladies and other
members of the Methodist church
purchased and refitted, and which is
in fine condition, it has been occu
pied by the minister of the church
here and his family.
Business at the Alvo garage keeps
Art Dinges and Lee Coatman on the
hump most of the time and they
hardly get one job out of the way
before three more come their way.
However, good business and plenty
of work keeps them out of mischief.
Home and Contents Burned
The home of Mrs. Ora Prouty, in
which Orville routy and family were
making their home, was burned to
the ground on last Saturday night.
Mrs. Prouty, who has not been in
the best of health, was at Diversity
Place, where she was taking treat
ment, and Mr. Prouty had taken the
children to Ashland, where they were
attending school, there being no one
at home.
The fire was discovered by Simon
Rehineier about midnight, who gave
the alarm and in a short time the
fire fighters of Alvo, with their chem
ical engine, were on hand. The build
ing was so tar consumed before it
was noticed that it was not possible
to save the building or contents.
Two pieces of furniture were saved
by reaching into the window and lift
ing them out. This was a danger
ous piece of business. It was re
ported that there was insurance on
both the building and contents, but
nothing definite was known.
Harried at Council Bluffs
0;i last Saturday, a week. Gayle
Bird and Ora Bauer, of Belmont, a
suburb of North Lincoln, were united
in marriage, and as they returned
home from Council Bluffs, where
they were married, they stopped for
a time to see the parents of the
groom, 11 r. and Mrs. A. I. Bird. They
went on to their home at Belmont,
where they will make their home.
The many friends of the newlyweds
nt Alvo and the Journal are extend
ing congratulations and best wishes
for the young people.
Land Sells at Good Price
The Kitzel homestead, comprising
1G0 acres located east of Alvo, which
was sold a week since, brought very
fair prices. The north eighty brot
$132.50 per acre and was bought by
Lemuel Dimmitt. The other eighty
sold for ten dollars more, or $142.50,
and was bid in by Henry J. Miller,
he especially wanting this, because
he had lands adjoining it.
Arthur Heier Barn Burned
The born at the farm home of
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Heier burned
to the ground Thursday of last week,
and for a time threatened to take all
the buildings of the place. The
neighbors assisted as much as pos
sible and were the first on the scene,
working very heroically, and had
much to do to protect the other
buildings. The Alvo fire department
came a humping as soon as they
were appraised of the conflagration,
and worked heroically to prevent the
fire from catching the other build
ings, and found it a good task, work
ing in unison with the neighbors
who were already there, and by the
united efforts saved the other build
ings. However, the barn had gotten
too much headway when first discov
ered to prevent its being burned.

the 13 miles of federal-state high
way, linking highway No. 3, three
miles north of Tecumseh, with high
way No. 41, which runs west, via
Sterling and Adams corner, and on
north to Lincoln.
The road is now completed, in
cluding gravel, from Lincoln to Ster
ling. Highway No. 3, running north
out of Tecumseh, is completed and
graveled three miles north, where it
runs east to Auburn, Nebraska City,
etc.
Taking up the link in the propos
ed graveled road from Tecumseh to
Lincoln will require 13 miles of
grading and gravel and Mr. Cochran
stated he expected to have the job
completed this year. Engineers and
surveyors are already on the ground.

This proposed road building will
be to extend the Goldenrod, No. 3,

graveled road on No. 41 from the
corner of No. 3, north of town, due

CHARGE OF FRAUD IS MADE
Chicago The McCormick boule
vaid constructed by the Chicago
sanitary district, is under investiga
tion again, it was revealed . Thurs
day when the state's attorney asked
criminal court for an order giving
him the right to take certain records
of til U. S. A. company, the con
struction company which did much
of the work.
"The profits were magnificent,"
said John K. Northup. first assist
ant state s attorney in presenting
ins plea before Chief Justice Nor
movie. "Even monumental," he
continued.
"It appears," his petition set forth
"that the profits of the said U. S. A
company under its contract ran from
50 to 200 percent and that the labor
expense and material charges were
so grossly padded that said sanitary
district was defrauded of vast sums,
running into millions of dollars in
1927 and 192S. Justice Normoyle
continued the hearing until Friday
when attorneys for the U. S. A.
company promised to produce the
reecnis asked.
FARM STORAGE BINS LOADED
Lincoln, March 24. Nearly 100,
000,000 bushels of corn and 11,000,
000 of wheat that still remain in
the hands of Nebraska farmers from
last year's crops are an indication
of changed conditions in this agri
cultural section of the west.
No longer does the producer have
to rush his crop from the thresher or
the husking wagon to market. His
own better financial resources, plus
more readily available sources of
loans, have made him more of a
business executive.
The increased number of livestock
and poultry on Nebraska farms also
are an indication that rather than
sell his raw products in deflated mar
kets the farmer will turn his estab
lishment into a personally operated
factory for the fabrication of meat
and eggs.
