VOL. HO. XLVH pLATTcrourn, eezzzzza. hohday, eov. 2, 1931. NO. 80 Residents of the County Plan Var on Hunters Irresponsible Parties Driving Into Country Side From Cities Destroy Property. A move is being started among the residents of the country districts west and south of this city to protect themselves and property from the in vasion of Irresponsible hunters, a most worthy move and one that is being made necessary by the acts of the hunters. The greatest trouble seems to be frcm persons from Omaha who on Sunday drive out in the country dis tricts to wage a general warfare on all game or the property of the farm' ers if they fail to find any other tar gets for their marksmanship. The parties who commit these acts do not seem to recognize the rights of the land owners or farmers in the least, invading the farms and shoot ing recklessly over the places, en dangering the live stock and persons who may be in the vicinity of their hunting activities. The farmers are as a rule not against the legitimate hunter who may come and secure their permis sion to hunt and then conduct them selves as real sportsmen instead of a bunch of bandits which is the usual attitude of some of these persons who have raided the Cass county farms. A few days ago a party cf hunt ers killed two shoats for one of the farmers in the vicinity of Rock Bluffs and another farm suffered the loss of a number of chickens, shot by the Omaha hunters. It is proposed that a general asso ciation of the farmers be formed that will embrace those north and west of Plattsmouth. east along the river and west and south of Murray to the Eight Mile Grove church, this terri tory seeming to be the chief sufferer from this outlaw hunting. The farm ers will not permit any hunting on the farms unless they, have given written permission and the members of the association will investigate any and all of the hunting parties they may find to learn whether or not the banters have the necessary perm isskm. -r"rrr-- V-- j CALICO PARTY Last evening a number of Meth odist mothers and daughters held a pleasant luncheon and program in the dining room of the church from 6 to 8 o'clock. It was under the charge of the Woman's Foreign Mis sionary society who invited any mother and daughter or anybody to secure a daughter and participate. A pleasing number were present des pite the many other interests to take time and attention. The party commemorated the days of 1869 when the society was first organized in Boston, and two of the founders said "Rather let us walk the streets of Boston in calico dresses than fail to send these two young women to India." Those two young women were Isabelle Waburn who founded the great college now at Luc b now, India for girls, and Dr. Clara Swain, the trrst doctor to go early in the days of organization. So the dresses of print with little print bags to match in which the offering is to be brought each month were initiated Into service and the pro gram this year is to follow the thought of "sacrifice and simplicity." The newly elected officers present were installed with appropriate ritual by ex-president Mrs. P. L. Barkus. as follows: President, Mrs. Harry White; vice president. Miss Emma DeHart; recording secretary. Miss Margaret Mapes; Corresponding secretary. Mrs. R. B. Hayes; treas urer, Mrs. H. A. Light body, standard bearer leaders. Mrs. E. H. Wescott for senior girls, Mrs. E. G. Shellen barger for junior girls; supervision of ligbt bearers and king heralds, Mrs. Hayes; publicity. Mrs. Barkus; missionary education, Mrs. Win. Howland. The story of Standard Bearers was given in word and song by all pres ent. Miss Virginia Trively reading the story, and Miss Helen Schuls leading the songs interspersed. A playlet. "Calico Mites" was given by auxiliary members with the help of three daughters. The first scene where the idea of the calico dresses and bags originated was in the home of a mother. Mrs. Barkus and her two daughters, which parts were taken by Louise Rishel and Margaret Lahoda and a girl Joining in their plans being Frances Lillie. Second scene was a meeting of the society later in the year, when eight members met and reported how they had saved the money in the little calico bag. The program closed with singing of "God Be with You 'Til We Meet Again." and announcement of the next get-together to be held in late winter called the "Mystery Mother" luncheon. . JIAHY ATTEND COFFEE Wednesday afternoon the ladies of the altar society of the Holy Rosary church held a very delightful coffee at the church parlors,- very largely attended by the resident; pf the, city.

I SHERIFF REED COJT- TTCUES TO IUPCOYE From Thursday's Dally Sheriff Bert Reed today was very much improved and the patient ap parently was making very rapid pro gress to recovery. He has had two good restful days and now has so much improved that he wishes to be up and around as well as to enjoy a real meal.

PRESENT DEII0ITSTRATI0I7 From Thursday's Daily- Wednesday afternoon at the high school and last evening at the pub lic - library auditorium, there was presented a very interesting and scientific lecture and cemonstration of meat selection and preparation. that was a real revelation to those who attended. At the high school in the after noon. Prof. W. J. Loeffel, in charge of meat work at the University of Nebraska, gave his lecture on the selection of meats, the preparation of the various cuts for the greatest advantage in economy and food. Special stress was laid on the pre paration of cuts of lamb to give the use of practically all of the carcass. The demonstration in the evening at the public library, was attended by many of the residents of the com munity, who found a real treat await ing them, in the practical demonstra tion of meat cutting, given by Max 1 u. tuiien, wno was assisting troi. Foeffel. The lecture of Prof. Loeffel was covering the use of the meats as a part of the diet of the family. The demonstration of cutting so that many excellent cuts of lamb could be secured in addition to the chops and leg cuts, was one of real interest, showing that practically all of the lamb carcass can be used and that the cuts that are seldom ijsed can be made into most appetiz ing dishes for the meat ration of the family. This lecture and demonstration was sponsored jointly by the Univer sity of Nebraska, the National Live Stock and Meat board and the local meat dealers to bring to the residents of the community a great deal of in formation concerning the use of lamb as food, which has been gen erally overlooked in the past. Those who attended felt amply re paid for their time in the clear and practical lecture given and the dem onstration of Mr. Cullen in the cut ting of the lamb.

As the guests arrived at the home they were met at the door by a ghost ly figure that escorted them into the home and where they found a pro gram of the Hallowe'en games and amusements had been prepared for them. The members were all required to pay a visit to the "torture cham ber" where many startling exper iences were prepared for thtm. The refreshments of the evening were in keeping with the Hallowe'en season and were most delicious and thoroughly enjoyed by all of the members of the class.

"Bird sella the north road to Tony fcr the river road and S l.oos,-rmr tortus -nts-mistake and that he has lost the sale of the land to the railroad.' President Kilbuck of the railroad finds that his son is more clever in a business way than he thought and the railroad pays the price for the north road to Tony. John Svoboda appeared es "Mr. Mulberry," attorney of the railroad: Walter Gabriel as "Bruce Ferguson." clerk in the railroad office; Ed Wehr- beln as "Artie" the office boy: Miss Janet Vallery as "Imogene McCarty," the stenographer in the railroad office.

LOOKETG AFTER GRAVEL From Friday's Daily County Commissioner George ' L. Farley was out in the country to day looking over some gravel work that is being done on the west of this city from Murray to the point where the road joins No. 75 near Oreapolia. This road was a part of the detour used while No. 75 was being paved, the gravel being placed on the road at that time and is now being replaced. In a number of the sections of the roadway the gravel has become very light and this is being resurfaced to save the road, the highway being a great conven ience to the residents of the section through which it passes. The part of the road from the Oak Hill ceme tery west to the junction with the main graveled road at the Tritsch farm is also being resurfaced.
