The Christmas thought was ex
pressed in the meeting of the Platts
month Woman's Hub held at the
home of Mrs. E. H. Wescott. in the
arrangements and setting for tho
gathering as well as the fine musical
urogram that was a part of the event.
The home was aglow with the
candles, the red and green of the
Christmas time and also the Christ
mas tree that added its touch of
charm to the holiday settings of the
rooms.
The members of the club spent
some time in discussing the proposed
community calendar, arranged so
that various events would not be in
conflict with each other and pre
venting many events being staged on
the same evening.
The program was In charge of
Mrs. Wescott and in range gave a
variety of entertainment and musi
cal expression that was much enjoyed
by all of the members.
Mrs. Robert Reed, one of the tal
ented musicians of the city was heard
in one of her delightful piano offer
ings and also as chairman of the
Choral Union she reported that $25
had been donated to the Associated
Charities from the presentation of
"The Messiah."
A reading of the Christmas time
was given by Miss Gertrude Vallery
and was a v-ry pleasing featuit i I
the program.
Miss Coin Williams, supervisor of
the music department of the high
school, was heard in a proup of num
bers. "Night of Xiphts" by Vande-
! water, and "Change of Bfind" by
jCurran.
One of the pleasing features of
l the evening was the song. "Silent
'Night," given by Miss Paula
and in whicri the little artist was
very fine.
Two of the talented musicians of
the teaching force of the city schools.
Misses Hazel and Helen Struble. were
heard in two duet numbers. "There
Were Shepherds" by Lynes and "Gen
tle Be Thy Slumber. Sehlefinger.

Feeling a Spirit
of Reform
Many Changes Are Proposed as City
Tries to Escape Unfavor
able Publicity.
Chicago The spirit of reform is
on Chicago. So far that spirit has
manifested itself in a level headed
manner. If it retains that tenor and
loses none of its potency, this city
that lately has been painted all over
the world as a modern combination of
Sodom and Gormorrah seems destined
for a Utopian era an era of possibly
suits from a particularly embarass
ing municipal administration, the
city actually is giving some serious
thought to the election of a mayor
scheduled for next April.
And. most startling of all, perhaps,
is the prospective house-cleaning in
the demoralized police department.
Acting Commissioner Alcock has done
wonders in the short time he has
been in the saddle but now the way
has been cleared for a complete in
vestigation of the department by a
special grand jury next month. i
State Journal.
When Santa Clans arrives here on
next Tuesday morning lie is g'.ini;
to find every convenience ready, not
only for himself, but for Pranci r and
Dancer, his favorite reindeer.
The lodge that win be prepared
for his reception was placed on the
court house lawn yesterday and a
fenced off park for the reindeer and
where the little folks as wall as the
grownups can look over the reind er
and the little folks as well --.v. imn.iit
Piatt their desires and wishes to Santa.
The reception and general lebra
tion here on the occasion of the ar
rival of Santa on Tuesday, December
23rd. promises to be one of the larg
est that has hern held in tbe city
and while the jolly Sc.ntu will ar
rive here about H :'.' a. in. if is ex
pected that he will find the boys and
Kills from all this se-tion i-i waiting
to extend him the welcome that be
so well deserves.
While Santa will he able with par
ental assistance to look after the
need of a great majority of the chil
dren, there are going to lie ea -
where it depends on the good people
The filing recently of some eleven
cases to secure condemnation of land
for the Missouri Valley Pipeline Co.,
from their present line near Wabash
into Louisville, points to the fact
that that city will soon have a line
carrying the natural gas operating
into that place.
The plant of the Ash Grove Cement
Co., is the goal toward which the
line is working and where the gas
will be used in the tiring of the kilns
and the general operation of the
I plant where heat and fuel is now re
I quired and will make a great revolu
tion In the supply of heat and power
; for the plant.
It is estimated by those who have
checked up the operation of oth r
plants of this kind that the Mas con
sumption of the cement plant will be
as large as that of tjie entire city
of Lincoln, the cement plant being
a continuous user of the gas both
day and night and in large quan
; ities.
These large plants are users of
great amount of gas and estimates
of Omaha are that two or three of
tho paekirg plants there would con
sume more than all of the private
services in the city of Omaha.
Tin- natural fras here has proven
a great saving to everyone and with
the great natural advantages of this
city and its possessing two of these
pipe lines should make it a very ac
ceptable spot for manufacturing con
cerns as this city possesses also a
great store of the best of water and
is located nt a logical shipping point
for any direction as well as having
paved highways and other modern
conveniences for transportation.

you let any of these skeptical folks
shake your faith or spoil your expec

Tuesday morning, Dec. 23 you will
sure see Santa and some genuine
j reindeer that he is bringing with
him. We know this will be a treat
for all the boys and girls as we
(doubt if there is a boy or girl in
Plattsmouth who ever saw Santa s
reindeer and for that matter none of
i the older folks either. So it will be
la genuine treat when Santa drives
i down Main street in his sleigh, pull
ed by his trusty reindeer. Dancer
and Prancer.
Santa will also have with him
two of his Eskimo friends they're
names are funny, we cannot spell
them, much less pronounce them.
The party will arrive in Platts
mouth between 9:30 and 10 o'clock
Tuesday morning and great plans
are being made for his reception. A
lodge has been prepared for him on
the court house lawn and a corral for
the reindeer. Santa is obliged to
leave at 12 o'clock so be sure and be
here in the morning if you want to
see him. On account of bringing the
reindeer with him Santa was unable
to arrange for gifts for the children
this time, but he has ordered a big
lot of candy kisses which he will give
out personally. Bring your letters
telling what you want for Christmas
and hand them to Santa personally.
Better put your address on them, as
it is hard for him to remember where
everybody lives.
