under the trade agreement, must be
withheld from the market until late

Old Settlers
Reunion Scores
Fine Success
Large
of
Crowd Present cn Both Days
the Annual Gathering of
Old Time Residents
Another of the Old Settler.'s re
unions has passed into history with
the closing of the gathering Satur
day night and which has proved an
annual event at Union since lH
Despite the general depression there
was as large a crowd present as in
the past years and the attendants at
the event found a fine program and
plenty of entertainment in the two
day event.
The Friday program was arranged
and carried oat by the Lewiston com
munity center and as usual with
this group of people there was plen
ty of fun and amusement for the
young and old alike. The old time
residents who had come to Cass and
Otoe counties at an early day were
in evidence on the grounds of the
reunion and many interesting stories
of the olden times was related among
the groups of the men and women
who had such an important part in
the development of the territory and
state of Nebraska.
The Saturday crowd, as is usual,
was much larger than that of Fri
day and embraced large numbers
from more distant points who came
to share with the good people of
Union the excellent time that had
been prepared.
On the Saturday afxernoon pro
gram Judge James T. Begley of this
city, was the chief speaker and gave
a very fine address, paying tribute
to the pioneer residents of eastern
Nebraska, who coming from their old
homes in the east settled to make
homes in the new and unknown land
and where in this garden of the Mis
souri valley hail found an ideal con
dition for the growing of their crops
and which had developed into one of
the most fertile spots in all of the
great western empire.
During the Saturday afternoon
program the Nehawka-Lewiston band
was he:u-d in several selections, given
in their usual very fine manner and
which reflected the greatest credit
on the members and their direct.'-.
James Smith.
Tommy Troop, one of Cass coun
ty's most talented young musicians,
was also a feature of the Saturday
program and gave several very de
lightful vocal offerings that were
very much enjoyed by all of the
large audience.
A solo dancing number Dy tiie
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne
I'ropst of Nebraska City, a former
resident of Union, also pleased the
audience with its charm and very
artistic presentation.
Adding to the entertainment was
the fact that the Gibbs carnival com
pany, a very high class organization,
was on the grounds for the two days
and their array of shows and riding
devices served to help keep some
thing doing all of the time on tiie
grounds.
The association that promoted the
Old Settler's this year was beaded
by W. B. Banning as president, and
C. B. Smith, as secretary, and these
gentlemen, witli their active and
efficient committees, deserve a great
deal of credit for the fine time that
was arranged for the visitors at
Union.
DOING VERY NICELY
From Friday's DaHy
The many friends of Cecil Corn
stock, local young man, will be
pleased to learn that he is doing
very nicely at the hospital at Omaha
where he was operated on a few days
ago. The patietu has stood the or
deal in fine shapj and is now on the
highway to recovery and hopes soon
to be able to return to the home
here.

LEGION AUXILIARY MEETS
The American Legion Auxiliary
held a very interesting meeting Fri
day afternoon at the Legion building
and which was attended by a pleasing
number of the members .
The chief feature of the afternoon
was the address given by Mrs. E. H.
Wescott. state regent of the Daugh
ters of the American Revolution, who
had as her subject, "Why I Am Glad
That I Am an American." In her
remarks Mrs. Wescott gave a very
clear insight into the workings of
organizations seeking to undermine
the American theory of government,
presenting many examples ol the
methods used to spread the red doe
trine, communistic- articles as well
as attacks made by many societies of
the patriotic organizations of the na
tion, the C. M. T. C, Boy Scouts and
other organizations, seeking under
the subtle means of propaganda to
create a distruct of the factors that
had served to stimulate the growth
of a strong American sentiment in
the nation in the years past. The ad
dress was followed very closely and
the members of the Auxiliary felt
v ry grateful to Mrs. Wescott for
her presentat ion of these important
facts for their consideration.
The Auxiliary also voted to serve
the banquet for the Cass County
Women's Club convention which will
bo held here in October.
The action of the delegates to the
state convention on matters of vital
consideration were discussed by the
members of the entire Auxiliary.
At the close of the afternoon dain
ty refreshments were served by the
hostesses, Mesdanies R. H. :?ailon,
R. B. Hill. C. H. Jensen. Frank Re
bal and A. H. Duxburv.
AN INVASION OF RODENTS
Rats are more numerous in Louis
ville this year than for many years in
the past. The reason for it perhaps
is that weeds are permitted to grow
without restraint along the banks of
Mill creek and refuse is thrown into
the stream on which they feed and
thrive.
Tuesday night Dave Sjogren set
38 steel traps in his filling station
and oil room. They were all care
fully baited with cheese. As to what
success he had. we have not been in
formed. They have been doing much
damage by eating holes in chamois
skins and other like articles.
Recently George Ossenkop exter
minated dozens of them by attaching
a hose to the exhaust pipe of his car
and inserting it in a hole under an
old shed. In a short time they be
gan to come out in great numbers
and as soon as they got into the fresh
air they tumbled over and died. The
plan is worth trying. Louisville
