KEEPING POSTED on this and that is what everyone is doing these
days and that's especially why I wanted to have a bit of the June
fashions before the Fourth and a bit of summer coolness implied
i r what with the hot stick days beginning again it's more than
tr paramount this keeping tool business.
LC.-5 OF APPETITE in the summer
is iu. more a matter of the weather
tor chickens and hogs than for the
children it's all depend
ant on thtir foods that's
V. why I wanted to call your
-r'y'jjf attention to the mashes
for growing and develop
' meat all of them Wayne
y mashes too and every
farmer knows there isn't any more
proved one than that! When you
livf iii a community that is dependent
farmers for their very livelihood
you know this is an important item
a;.d that's one reason Mr. Bach car-rit-s
a vt-ry line supply of feeds in his
si; rercom located next uoor to the
.u-neral store. The next time you come
to town plan to order you mashes
vith the rest of your shopping!
RIGHT ABOUT NOW everyone is be-gi:.nit-g
to plan those summer trips
and ii.t one thing that tends to make
tli-iii more successful is the lark of

and that's just why it's
necessary for the women
to look around for a
range that will save them
effort and make the cook
ing even better. That's
w here the Skel-Gas stoves
figure prominently. For
Willi Skel-Gas these's no danger of
! lo.-ions and best of all you'll find
it' actual cost less than most and
ti:- time saved and the pleasure in

wonder whether or not I'm certain of

JUNE BEING THE MONTH for the
generous use of fresh fruits, almost
every menu calls for an unusual com
lunation of fruit with vegetables or
other foods. For instance cottage
cheese and currants for a salad. Rhu
barb with tapioca or even a lemon
juice with string beans all things
that will taste cool these hot days
and foods that are full of the neces
sary vitamins for the youngsters. An
other rather unusual recipe is made
with chopped peanuts and
potato salad made the
usual way, but the addi
tion of peanuts adds a
certain salty flavor that
snacks of picnics and light
lunches. Mullen & Sons
specialize in finding the newest com
binations of vegetables and fruits
you'll find fresh apricots and pears
and cherries already!
OLD-TIMERS tell us that the help
you get from the sun is not from the
"neck up" so to speak for it may
be ruinous to the complexion through
freckling or burning uncomfortably
and scorching a harshness into a
formerly soft face that will be un
attractive all winter long. In fact.
beauty specialists tell us if instead of
letting the face become as
tanned and harsh as the
i rest of our bodies that
j we should wear large
brimmed sun hats on the
! beach and for sports
then when we're specially 1 T '
preparing for a party all that is
necessary to do to make the face
match the neck and shoulders is use
a bit of sun tan powder and you'll
find that Armands ,Symphonie." at
Mauzy's Drug store and their dark
est "Rachel" in Houbigant's line
will just do the trick and leave you
in much better disposition next fall
when you want to be fair again.
THESE COOL SUMMER dresses call

lingerie must always be smooth and
unamiarent that s whv Carters suk
'mesh lingerie is so popular among the
women who want the best in com
fort and their qualities are not limit
ed to this phase alone
their ability to be tubbed
without ironing is a spec
ial feature and the fas
tidious woman likes many
sets of shorts and brass
iers in the summer
The slips are of crepe silk
months.
with lace trimming and the length
for any frock that's why light, cool
voiles are as heralded for now the
women know they can find suitable
lingerie for any frock at Soennich
sen's by the way they have the
newest shades in lingerie too try
Phoenix in Plage it's complimentary
to 'most any outfit.
NO MATTER WHERE you are plan
ning to spend the summer its en
tirely your own fault if you don't
maintain that certain feeling of chic
through fresh frocks and for you
men those linen and flannel trous
ers that lose their crease
so sewn if you have them
cleaned at Fred Lugsch's,
you'll find they'll hold
their shape twice as long
and there's nothing that
helps the morale as much
as knowing that you're properly
dressed! Those Panama hats both for
men and women too probably need a
bit of cleaning! I know when I was
i5,t thpre. Mr. Lugsch was trying" a
new mode of cleaning one of his own
and quite successfully, I might
add!
THE SEASON'S PUMP has achieved
the popularity of a classic this year
with its slightly Greecian effect
none other than the "Bandalette."
Basket weave is important as a con
trast or in similar tones and stock
ings are worn to match the darker
tones in an outfit. Some
thing just a bit different
for summer and you'll
find more flattering for
the ankles than the ter
ribly light hosiery! Rows
of perforation also tend to
bring out the new shoe interest this
season and show more of the stock
ing than ever before? necessitating a
cradle fitted foot in the stockings.
But no matter the fashions you'll
find just what you've been reading
about at the Fetzer Shoe Company!
WHAT WITH ECONOMY the main
idea today many people are return
ing to the use of coal in their heat
ing and cooking equipment about
their homes. One thing
certain, it is excellent for
burning if you know
where to buy the best
coals and another thing
an ordinary kitchen
range need not be so ter
ribly uncomfortable during the sum
mer in fact with proper cleaning of
flues and pipes it is quite the usual
thing to have a hot fire for dinner
and have the kitchen cool again that
afternoon. Then, too, there is no
danger of explosions and really
some cooks say that food doesn't taste
the same when it's not cooked in a
large coal range oven maybe that's
just their idea but it's a good one
and while we're thinking of it did
you know that when you buy your
coal out of season just like all other
items you save money! Just call the
Hartford coal company!
FOUND JUST THE PLACE for that
late snack before retiring these hot
nights and none other than Brown's
Cafe they're open late enough to
stop by for that late sandwich after
a drive or after the show
and best of all, you'll
find they have perfectly
delicious coffee though
perhaps some of you won
der why I don't mention
their cold drinks like
lemonades and orange juices
-but
then personally I'd much prefer a
good cup of coffee to any other bev
erage any time in tne year. just, a
suggestion now that it's so warm
and rather uncomfortable cooking in
one's kitchen why not have any fu
ture luncheons or dinners at Brown's?
Their private dining room off the
lobby of the Riley hotel is splendidly
situated and they'll arrange all the
little details and have an excellent
meal for you and any number of
guests!
BUTTONED with style is an expres
sion that rather describes the mili
tary trend of even the summer frocks.
When you're looking over the pat
terns for this season, note
particularly the new high
OV necKiine anu me umc
, ' Yl enaulettes with the but
tons every place from
sleeve interest to double
lapel effect and you'll find
the very best of these in the "Miss
Simplicity" patterns and featuring a
pattern that costs only 15c and yet
has three very smart versions of the
dress for the women who are clever
enough to save money making their
own summer dresses. You'll find any
thing in the cotton and rayon mater
ials at Wurl's and especially attrac
tive are the highly colored materials
for the taller, slimmer girls though
with their line of Goldette founda
tion garments we all may achieve
that desired slenderness!
j
WHY NOT BE COMFORTABLE is a
question that many ask themselves
when they're ordering their new
spring and summer wardrobe and
that's where experience often plays
an important part for those of you
who remember the uncomfortable past
when you wore a sports dress to the
beach or any swimming
place and had to empty
your shoes innumerable
times before arriving at
the beach well, the new
beach pajamas rather tend
to make us ridicule the
uncomfortable past for what with a
large beach hat and colored pajamas
and sandals what would be better
for a pleasant day of solid cool com
fort? Before you look anywhere else,
stop at Knorr's Popular Variety store
and let them show you their display
of pajamas and sun hats to match
very reasonably priced, too!
NEW ENTICEMENT for drowsy ap
petites is just what everyone is look
ing for these days in their menus
and that's particularly why I'm men
tioning some of the rpec
ial recipes that I happen
ed to think of when I was
looking over Martin's Red
& White store. They're
mostly concerning the
salads of the week, too
and if I may quote a cullinary expert
he called them the "piquant point
of interest" in all menus! Mayon
naise of shrimp and pineapple sound
perhaps the most atrocious and yet is
probably one of the most delicious
you will ever have tasted just try
It and I'm certain you'll agree. An
other clever way to use fresh veget
ables that have been left over is in
a "julienne," which is made of any
number of vegetables merinated and
then mixed with lettuce and gelatine
and served cold but no matter what
you want, you'll find it at the Red
and White!
Here's to a very fine vacation for
you all over the Fourth and be care-
A
ful of the fire works, youngsters and
don't put holes in your new frocks
and suits, you grown ups!

Extortion Plot
Against Nehavka
Man is Foiled
Elmo Imbler, 26, Arrested at Omaha
Sunday in Attempt to Extort
$10,000 from Henry Znabe.
A plot to extort $10,000 from
Henry Knabe, wealthy Nehawka
farmer and his son, Edward, was
foiled Sunday when Omaha police
acting in conjunction with Sheriff
Ed Thimgan of Cass county, nabbed
the leader of the plot to "shake
down" Mr. Knabe.
The man arrested gave the name
of Elmo Imbler, 26. He told police
that his home was at Rollo, Kansas,
and that he had been wandering
through Kansas and Nebraska foi
some time. He stated that he naa
come to Omiha from Fremont sev
eral days previous.
To the Omaha police Imbler ad
mitted that he had taken part in
the plot to extort the money from
the Knabes, claiming a man named
"Peterson" and one "Johnson ' were
'also in the plot and that he had met
ago. He insisted that "Peterson" had
stamped out the letter from a rub
ber stamp outfit.
Omaha police questioned Miss Alice
Wiseman, who had ridden to Omaha
from Fremont with the suspected
robber, who stated that she did not
know of the activities of Imbler, but
that last Sunday he had showed her
a letter and stated that it was im-
iportant. He did not tell her the con-
tents of the letter, however.
In his letter to the Knabes, Im
bler demanded that the money be
M. C. A. Sunday afternoonfi where
he would pick it up.
Knabe, on receiving the letter last
Tuesday, took it to Sheriff Ed Thim
gan at this city, who formulated
plans to trap the extortionists. The
sheriff and Knabe came to Omaha
Sunday morning and requested the
aid of Omaha police.
Inspector Danbaum sent the two
detectives to the Y. M. C. A. with the
dummy package.
Taxi Driver Appeared.
At 4 p. m. H. G. Reed. 2116 Cas
tellar street, a taxi driver, appeared
at the desk and inquired for a pack
age for "Mr. Peterson." the name
used by the blackmailers. The of
ficers promptly pounced on him.
"What's the matter with you
guys," Reed demanded indignantly.
"A fellow at the Henshaw hotel,
where I got ray stand, asked me to
come over for this. He said he had
a date with his parents and couldn't
come.
Phelan drove to the hotel and
parked in a police car across the
street. Pattavina secreted himseir in
the back of Reed's cab and ordered
Reed to drive to the hotel.
Suspect Came to Cab.
When the cab stopped in front
of the hotel, Imbler stepped up to
the driver and asked for the pack
age. Pattavina jumped out of his
hiding place and grabbed Imbler.
They tussled for a moment. Phelan
dashed across the street and helped
subdue Imbler.
Attempted Once Before.
The elder Mr. Knabe was victim
of an attempted extortion once be
fore, about a quarter of a century
. : .1
ago. ueorge cmion, a lorraer nireu
man for Knabe, was arrested and sent
to the Nebraska prison for a year
and a half. Henry Knabe is . 1 and
his son is 4 4. They are rated well-to-do.
After the note, Sheriff Thimgan
investigated the present whereabouts
of Clifton, to learn that he is serving
a life sentence at Fort Madison, la.,
for murder.
The note had been mailed on a
train running into Omaha from the
west last Sunday afternoon.
The letter demanded that Knabe
get the money together in large bills,
at least half of it in twenties, and
leave it at the Y. M. C. A. It stated
that Knabe would be the first of sev
eral wealthy Cass county farmers to
be blackmailed and threatened him
with death in many forms if he did
not comply.
Text of Letter.
The letter received by the Knabes
read in part:
"Henry Knabe and Son: Do
not notify the law or you will
be sorry for the rest of. your
days. Do as you are instructed
and all will be well. We know
that you have money. We have
spent a long time looking you
up, and several others around
there two to be correct.
"You're the first to get a let

do will help us. If you refuse
and notify police we will make
an example of you for the rest.

"Here is just a few ways we

"You might get picked off

"You might get blowed up. or
we might kidnap you and hang
you ... to a tree.
"Your car might blow up, or
go off the road and kill you.
"You might die of poison.
"We're going to make an ex
ample of you if you tell the law.
The rest will come through after
they see what happens to you.
Your every move is being watch
ed, so don't bo a fool.
"We have every reason to
think that you can get this
amount without trouble or we
would reduce it. Don't keep the
numbers of the bills if you don't
want someone to slip up behind
you and cut your throat or siip
a knife in your ribs.
"The law is darn smart, but
so are we. Tell the law and you
both will be dead sooner or
later. Remember, make only one
package."
The letter was not signed.
MEET AFTER 47 YEARS
A meeting of two former Cass
county men occurred at Holyoke,
Colorado, recently, this being the
first time in forty-seven years that
the two had enjoyed a visit with
each other. The men were William
Kerrell or "Billy" as he was better
known in Cass county, and A. 13.
Kieager. Mr. Kerrell lives at Holyoke
while Mr. Kreager is a resident of
near Laporte. It is needless to say
the two old fiends had a most pleas
ant visit in the renewal of the old
days back in Cass county.
