Dowler left his car standing in the street by his home the other night and when he went to use it in the morning found that the spare tire and the license number were gone and also the tools of a neigh bors car.

Mr. Davidson was a member cf the Methodist church and was a worker in the stone quarries for tha greater part of the time that he waa here.

Entertain Their Frisnd Henry Mogensen. who has been at the Veterans hospital east of Lincoln since he uderwent a operation for gall stones and appendicitis, was giv en a surprise by his friends, the member'? of the Weeping Water band. They went over in a body last Sunday and gave him a concert and the glad hand and made him merry for an hour. Henry surely enjoyed the visit and considered it better than'medicine. He is doing fair. Opening a Quarry at Nehawka Ole Glsen has been at Nehawka most cf the time of late where he is looking after the opening of a stone quarry there. He is to take his large crusher from this place to there. A road is already graded to the qurrry and there is also a large bcilcr for the steam engine that is to operate the crusher. The crushed rock will be used cn the O street paving. Heccivcd Severe Injuries Phillip Spangler has had a bull in his herd that during the past few months lias h:.d to be watched to keep him from hurting some one. While he had been dehorned he still had some stumps which would in jure a person. The other day while passings through the barn lot at his work, in which there were also some horses with the cattle, the bull attacked Mr. Spangler. The bull knocked him down and the horning and pummelling that Mr. Spangler received nearly killed him. Mr. Spangler endeavored to get out of the lot and called for help but the houAe was some distance away acrof-s the road. Mr. Spangler was able to get on his knees with his face to the fence and the bull kept butting him in the back until he was almost killed. The horses stampeded out in to the pasture and the bull followed them. When found Mr. Spangler was scarcely alive and cculd not speak. He was carried into the house and a doctor called who gave him treat ment and bound up his broken ribs. After some time he was able to speak I but he is so sore he can scarcely move in his bed. After three cf four days he is reported us being slightly better,- KOTICE OF ELECTION To the Legal Electors of the Village cf Greenwood, Nebraska: Notice is hereby given that pursu ant to the action of the Village Board at a regular meeting held on the 2Sth day of June, 1932, for the purpose of submitting to the legal voters of the Village of Greenwood, Nebraska, the question of whether or not the Vil lage should sell its electric distribu tion system and transmission line to the Iowa-Nebraska Light & Power Company and in accordance with said action of the Village Beard and pur suant to the authority fixer! in me as Chairman of the Village Board of the Village of Greenwood, Nebraska, you are hereby notified that said t lec tion has this day been called to be held on the Sth day of November, 1932, in said village at regular poll ing places.

(Seal) CHARGED WITH INTOXICATION From Tuesday's Paily Last night Officers Dave Fickrel and Roy Stewart gathered in a man giving the name of Claude J. Akim, who stated that ho was engaged in working wtih the grading gang on the Union-Nchawka highway. He with two companions, had partaken freely of the refined spirit of the corn at Union and decided to go places and do things and accordingly drove to this city. When he was discovered by the officers he had backed his car for a block down Main street and investigation of bis action led to the discovery that he was intoxicated. Bond was supplied and he was allowed to be taken on home by his companions. TIIE VERY LATEST and there seems to be much truth in the rumor is that short bobbed hair is return ing to favor again. It seems that the new bats require an even trim back hair line, and for that reason the curl3 that you have been growing so as siduously will have to be removed from the back of Kour neck and aren't you glad? I'm sure not many women would truthfully say that thsy preferred long hair. The Etta Belle Beauty Shoppe is "up" on the laiest hair cuts. Etta Nickles will thin and trim your hair in the latest mode, and you may be sure that the finished job will bo an artistic piece of beauty work. Call 20 for appoint ments. CLOTHES that are clean and well pressed give you a feeling of confi dence that is needed in these days of competition. There's no doubt about it, personal appearance goes a long way toward success these days, and the man or woman who sends his or her clothes to the cleaners at fre quent intervals is the one whose clothes are going to look the best and wear longer. It's a fact Mr. Fred Lugsch at the Lugsch Clean ers tells me that the surest way cf getting the maximum wear from clothes is to keep them clean and have them cleaned as soon as they got dirty don't let those spots "set." Call phone 166 and their delivery truck will pick up your bundle. By the way, they're equipped to recondi tion men's and ladies' hats, giving a factory-finish job ct small cost. Also, special equipment just installed to handle men's caps. No need throwing that old hat or cap away take it to Lugsch. TIIE NEXT TIME someone in the family casts reflections on your cook ing ability by asking "Who made the biscuits soggy?" just come right back at them and say, "Well, I could show you who's a good cook if I had a decent stove one of those fine Copper Clad ranges that the Eestor & Swatek Co. sell would suit m a flno ' ' Tint Inn ' t ctnn there renew the attack by leading the man of the house down to the hardware store and showing him those wonderful Copper Clad ranges. He will understand how the copper-asbestos lining that takes up the "sweat" prevents rusting out of the stove and they will refer you to sccres of Copper Clad users who can attest to many years of satisfactory service. Then, too, the whole thing is so compact and neat looking. Your cooking will be improved a hundred per cent when you cook on a Copper Clad range. The regulator on the oven insures your biscuits baking at the right temperature they'll never be soggy again. WHEN YOU'RE TRAVELING 'round in a car going through the same towns every week, one "develops" fa vorite eating places in each town. And if I'm any judge of such gusta tory matters, Brown's Cafe is every one's favorite eating place In Platts mouth. Their excellent food, cooked and served as you like it, leaves mem ories that are forever fresh in our minds when "it's time to eat." Mr. Urown is prepared o ar range for special luncheons or din ners for any size. This should be cf interest to club organizations who meet regularly. If you're interested in the kind of service Mr. Brown gives, just ask a member of the Ro tary club or the Chamber of Com merce directorate. Both these orga nizations hold their noon-day lunch eons in Brown'3 hotel dining room, served directly from the Brown's res taurant kitchen and he can offer your organization the same kind of service privacy for your meeting, with all the tempting dishes Brown's cafe is noted for. . V 4,1 GOES AKXPfPONG A TOUR of the Plattsmouth stores convinces me that there's never been a more gorgeous display of fall mer chandise. If anything can cure Old Man Depression, these fall offerings ought to do it. These articles I have mentioned are merely indications of the values to be found right here in your home town stores. Sincerely, "I CAN'T AFFORD to heat my house with gas any longer," remarked a man who was discussing the prob lem cf healing his home this winter. Lots of peo ple all over the country are discovering that the cheapest and safest way to keep their house com fortable during the cold winter months is to burn coal. They have found, too, that the insurance rate on homes and furniture is much less when coal is used as a medium for heating purposes. The Hartford Coal Company will deliver coal to your house any time. If you have not ordered your winter's supply, better do so now before the really cold weather arrives and you're caught without an adequate supply. Call No. 22 for prompt service. THEY SAY that eighty-five per cent cf the nation's shopping is done by women. And at the II. M. Soennich sen department store they tell me that fully half of the men's furnish ings are purchased by women. In that ease, of course, most cf the Plattsmouth ladies are familiar with the men's furnishing section at Soennichsen's, but to those who aren't I'd like to suggest that the next time you're shopping for the male members of the family, you go to Scennichsen's. Just notice the fine shirts, tics, belts, Focks, underwear and pajamas and other wearing ap parel for the men folks, and don't forget they have an equally complete line lor tne boys, including every thing that's new. They carry as large a stock of men's and boys caps as you will find in any store. You'll see for yourself the values to be found at this store. AUTUMN DAYS call for new clothes. And a stock of the newest styles right from Jhe Eastern style centers is awaiting your inspection at the Lad ies Toggery. Just now you'll find frocks ,cf light weight woolen fab rics, deeply crinkled rough rilk crepes and for more formal wear, luscious velvets. And by the way, the newest vel vets have a dull finish. Wide shoulder arrange ments predominate with an otherwise slim silhou ette. And if J'ou don't love the doz ens of shiny buttons that are being used for ornamental as well as utili tarian purposes you're not the girls I thought you were. Whatever is smartest in dresses and coats will be found at the Ladies Toggery. ANOTHER WAY to make meat loaf more interesting and thi3 is particu larly nice for beef loaf, is to put whole, shelled hard-cooked eggs in it. Press the meat down well around the eggs and on top, else when ,the meat is baking the eggs have a tendency to pop out of place." When the loaf is sliced the eggs make an attractive "design." Mr. Mullen at the "Mullen & Sens Meat Market and Grocery Store suggests adding a can of mushrooms to a veal meat loaf and pouring the liquor over the loaf. It imparts a delicious taste and places the meat loaf in the "elite class." You'll find a fine line of meats of all kind, in addition to the complete gro cery stock at the Mullen & Sons store. Watch their ads regularly in the Journal for news of real money-saving specials. IT'S SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE to "tie" a tie or an exford for style and smartness as perhaps you already know if you've been searching for fall shoes. Yes, indeed, the majority of the fall 6hoe styles are in oxford effects of some sort. Only a small per centage are in the strap models! But don't think for a minute these are V1 awkward or clumsy shoes. because they're not. Those new suede oxfords arc as smart and graceful V Jib looking as one could ask for and much more sensible than the sandal effects we have been wearing. Ox fords hold the Instep and arch snug ly which all makes for greater foot comfort. Fetzer Shoe Company is showing the latest In fall shoe styles. IT JUST DOESN'T PAY to gamble with canned goods with whose label you are unfamiliar. You'll never be disappointed in any food products bearing the "Advo" label. Take coffee for instance Why, there are certain foods that you wouldn't dream of serving for breakfast unless you knew they were strictly fresh (eegs, for instance); then why not be just as particular about your coffee. "Advo" coffee is always fresh and of uniform flavor. After all, good coffee is one of the small details that con tribute so much to the satisfaction of a good meal and you're always assured of satisfaction when you order "Advo" coffee. The A. G. Bach General Store has "Advo" coffee and all the other Advo label canned goods in their fine grocery department. You Just simply can't go wrong when you specify "Advo," Phone your or der, they'll deliver. Call 18 or 19. YOU'LL ALWAYS FIND a bridgo party going on some place, some where. How do I know? Well, I just do. And, besides, I notice that the linc.cf bridge tallies, cards and other accessories at Knorr's Popular Vari ety Store is always being inspected by a hostess. It's a fascinating and In teresting assortment and, as varied as you could ask. If you're making plans for a bridge party. stop in at Knorr's and select your bridge prizes there they have an endless variety from which to make selections. , By the way, I saw some wool jersey dresses for girls and wool knit suits for boys at Knorr's Variety Store. They were exceptionally at tractive, and the price was only 98c. These deserve your attention! A LITTLE! O' THIS A little o' that may be all well and good when you're hurriedly stirring up a simple cake, but it's an entirely different proposition when a druggist is filling a doctor's prescription for a sick mem ber of your family! Yes, indeed great care must be taken that every ar ticle is Just "as the doctor ordered." There's a reg istered pharmacist on duty at the Mauzy Drug Store at all times and that assures you that every prescription will be prom ptly and faithfully filled! I Just want to mention, too, that there are many remedies at the , Mauzy Drug Store that should have a place on your emergency shelf, for there are many things to be done before the doctor arrives. "LET FOOD be my theme Dessert my song!" Yes, indeed, as far as I'm personally concerned, I'd like my meals to consist mainly of desserts. But of course, that's not done in the best regulated diets. Pies have always been a favor ite of mine, and since the discovery of "cracker pie. crust," the making of pies is not so hard on the cook. "Cracker pie crust" actu ally has its own individual flavor! Imagine the delightful flavor of a pumpkin pie in a ginger crust. You roll fine, 18 old fashioned ginger snap cookies, mix with one-third cup of softened butter and a tablespoon of granulated sugar. Press mixture firmly with fingers into a buttered pie plate and bake in a rather hot oven for ten minutes. The Red and White Grocery Store has a fine line of cookies. The ginger snaps are grand!
