The rostrum of the church was
very handsomely arranged with the
reason's flowers representing the gifts
of members cf the congregation and
friends.
The opsning services were held in
the auditorium of the beautiful
church structure that has since IS 89
been the home of the church, with
the pastor, Rev. H. G. McClusky,
opening the services with the prayer.
Miss Olive Gass, whose parents
were pioneer residents of the com
munity and early members of the
church, gave the history of the
church from its organization down to
the present time. Miss Gass told of
the pioneer gathering of the mem
bers of the faith who had come west
to Nebraska territory to settle and
the final decision of the sixteen mem
bers of the faith to perfect a church!
organization. The struggles of the
early day and the gradual growth of
the membership of the church down
to the present time was given by
Miss Gass in her Interesting manner.
Many Interesting facts of the inci
dents of the early church life were
related by Miss Gass unfolded the
etory of the Presbyterian church in
Plattsmouth. Short sketches of the
various pastors of the church were
given, especially of Dr. John T. Baird,
who for forty year3 served as the
pastor of the church and its people.
The splendid pastorate of Rev. H. G.
McClusky that has covered from
March, 1914, to the present time
was stressed, as in thi3 period there
was received into the church 622
members, a greater number than had
been acquired in the previous years
of the church organization. In his
ervic Rv. McClusky has baptized
136 infants and 168 adults, 264 fun
erals have been conducted and 202
marriages performed by the pastor.
The address of the evening was by
Dr. J. W. Pressely, executive secre-j
tary of the synod cf Nebraska, who
gave a most inspiring and eloquent
message on "Yesterday, Today and
Tomorrow," stressing the influence
of the church and its undying power
in the lives of nations and Indi
viduals. Mr. Li. O. Minor wa3 heard in one
of hi3 always enjoyed vocal numbers,
to add to the pleasure of the pro
gram. Many greetings and letters were
read from those who had been mem
bers of the church here but have
since been called to move to other
localities, by Mrs. L. O. Minor. A
number of the former members were
able to be here and among these were
Mrs. Agnes Chapman of Oak Park,
Illinois; Mrs. Nellie Agnew and Mrs.
Samuel Waugh. both of Lincoln; Mrs.
Mathilde Vallery Dutcher, Warrens-

sided over by Mrs. Hartford, Mrs.
L. O. Minor and Miss Caroline Baird.

F. A. Cloidt, assisted by the girls of
the Westminster Guild. These girls,
gowned in pastel shades, added to the
picturesque occasion.

the birthday cake were served.
Just before the serving, two tiny
girls appeared in fair like dress, to
offer greetings in word and sonn.

HALL FOB SENATOR
Oh: those pretty bright candles!
How many? Did you say seventy-five?
Who'se seventy years old than I am?
For my birthdays have only been five.
Oh I know, its our church's birthday,
Its big. and must have a big cake,
you see.
So its our big cake and candles,
For this church belong3 to you and
to me.
Like all these pretty bright candles '
Shine, we must . too, and. our ; good
deeds show.

Betty. Ann Thomas eanfr this birthi
? ay wish,:
A movement ha? been started in
Lincoln by members of the" Veterans ;
of Foreign Wars for the appointment
of Phil L. Hall, state commander, for
United State3 senator. Mr. Hall is a
resident of Greenwod and has been
an active figure in the democratic
cilcles of the state, being a candidate
two years ago for state treasurer. He
comt-3 of a prominent democratic
family, hi3 father. Dr. P. L. Hall,
serving as national committeeman
for eeveral years. Mr. Hall is a man
eminently qualified for the office now
vacant by the death of Senator R. B.
Howell and his appointment would j
bring a young and active figure to
the senate. The Lincoln post of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars are to have
a committee that will take steps to
have a resolution presented to Gov
ernor Charles W. Bryan, urging that
the Greenwood man be named to the
vacancy now existing. Mr. Hall, be
ing a .resident of the eastern portion
of the state that ' now has no 'sena
torial representative, should maae a
strong candidate for the position.
