The children were left at private
homes in Omaha last November, aftd
are now at the Child Savings insti
tute, pending an investigation of the
case by juvenile authorities.
In court Gillespie testified he for
merly ran dry .cleaning establish
ments in Omaha and Onawa, la., and
Miss Kramer was hi3 stenographer.
Then the cleaning business got so
bad he was unable even to pay his
rent, he said. The children were left
in Omaha homes, he said, while he
sought work and Miss Kramer obtain
ed employment doing housework in
Kansas City.
Miss Kramer, posing as "Mrs.
Thompson," left her daughter, Dor
othy, 2, in one Omaha home with
word that she would permit Dor
othey's adoption, and left Freddie, not
quite 1 year old, at another home as
a temporary boarder.
Now, Gillespie said, a friend of his
is opening a cleaning establishment
in Topeka, Kan., and has offered him
a job. He returned to Omaha with
MiS3 Kramer to reclaim the children,
he said, so they might establish a
home in Topeka. Both Gillespie and
Mis3 Kramer said they had intended
to be married, but had neglected it.
Miss Kramre is the daughter of
Jake Kramer, retired farmer of Erie,
Kan.
Inspector of Detectives A. C. An
dersen told Judge Lester Palmer his
only interest in the couple was an
auto they were driving, belonging
to a resident of Topeka but bearing
Dodge county (Neb.) license plates,
Issued for another car.
Palmer imposed the five-day sen
tences to permit both Andersen and
juvenile authorities to complete their
investigations.

Next Tuesday
Pledges to be Sought fcr Membership
in Civic Organization During
Coming Epochal Year.
The Plattsmouth Chamber of Com
merce, which i3 starting out on what
promises to be its most propitious
year, at least in the past several, will
conduct its annual drive for 1934
members during the coming week.
Eight o'clock Tuesday morning is
the 'zero hour" set for the solicitors
to go forth, blanks in hand, to secure
pledges from business men and citi
zens who are interested in keeping
Plattsmouth in the advancement area
on the economic charts of the na
tion. With contracts already let for
extensive river improvement, a high
way program and other activities to
provide employment throughout the
summer. Plattsmouth is very well
situated so far as labor conditions are
concerned.
The river projects will eventually
bring about navigation on the Mis
souri, providing another natural ad
vantage that the town should take
full advantage of, and with our live
Chamber of Commerce organization,
a lot can be done along this line to
the end of securing dockage and ter
minal arrangements. Crowded river
front conditions in Omaha will make
necessary .the location of dockage fa
cilities a good distance from the heart
of the city and inaccessible to rail
connections. With the'' widespread
rail service of the Burlington and the
Missouri Pacific joined here, a large
area could be served through estab
lishment of terminal loading and un
loading facilities at this point, and it
can be assured that every effort will
be put forth by the Chamber's liar
bors and Docks committee to secure
such a terminal here. Our present
lower rail rates make it cheaper to
ship goods here from points east than
to take them cn into Omaha, for re
consignment via boat.
There are many other ways where
by the Chamber of Commerce can aid
in advancing Plattsmouth this year of
all years and the one thing needed
just now is a large and active mem
bership.
President Fred Rea can assign ev
ery active member to certain well-de
fined duties along this line, and his
success and that of the Chamber will
depend largely on the backing up of
the organization's 1934 program by
the largest membership enrolled in
recent years.
The past year was ended with a
moderate balance on hand in the
funds of the Chamber, and no large
sum will be asked from any firm or
individual. The main thing is num
bers, backed by reasonably small sums
of money from each firm or individual
enrolled to carry on the work, coup
led with whole-hearted co-operation
throughout the year.
The soliciting crew will call on you,
Mr. Business-man and Citizen, Tues
day or the next day or the next with
the opportunity to "Buy Plattsmouth"
cn a very small down payment basis.
Lend your ear to their call and loosen
your purse strings to the reasonable
amount you will be asked to contrib
ute. No community can stand still. It
i3 simply a case of going forward or
slipping backward. So, get behind
the wheel and push for some real
surprise achievements in Plattsmouth
during the coming twelve months.
JUNIOR HIGH SPELLING CONTEST
The Junior High school held a
spelling contest to determine the ones
who will represent Plattsmouth in
the spelling contest to be held at the
court house February 24.
Thirty-five boys and girls from the
eighth grade participated in the con
test and the best ones selected to be
the official represntatives. There
were in all 400 word3 pronounced and
the winners were: Hazel Payton, who
missed two words; Shirley Seivers.
missed five; Jean Knorr, missed six;
and Jane Rebal missed six. These
four people were declared the best
spellers in the Plattsmouth Junior
High school. Since every school is
allowed to enter but two contest
ants Hazel Payton and Shirley Seivers
will be the representatives with Jean
Knorr and Jane Rebal the alternates.
The contest was under the direc
tion of Miss Jessie Whalen who will
act as the coach for these young peo
ple. Last year Plattsmouth was rep
resented by Alice HIrz and Edna Mae
Peterson, who also won in the coun
ty contest.
Mr. Devoe conducted the contest
and pronounced 100 words each day
for four consecutive days. These
young people are to be congratulated
upon their record.

Passes Away as Result of At
tack of Plural Pneumonia
The death of Everett E. Eaton, C2,
a resident of Plattsmouth for a great
many years, occurred at Modena,

by relatives today stated.
Mr. Eaton had been engaged in
placer mining at Modena for the cast
few years and while engaged at his
work contracted a cold that later de
veloped into pneumonia and he had
constantly grown worse until death
came to his relief.
The funeral services were held at

mouth and passed his earlier years in
this community where he grew to
manhood and received his education
in the city schools of Plattsmouth.
He was engaged here in the up-
holstry shop of the Burlington over a
period of years. In recent years he
had made his home', in the west. Mr.
Eaton had a large circle of friends in
the community who will receive the
news of his passing with the greatest
of regret.
Mr. Eaton is survived by the
widow, residing at Modena, as well as
daughter, Laura Elizabeth, resid
ing at Los Angeles, as well as three
sisters, Mrs. C. C. Wescott, Mrs. F. L.
Cummins and Mrs. Maude Fricke, of

AERANGE FOR SWIMMING
INSTRUCTION FOR SCOUTS
Arrangements have heen made at
the Y. M. C. A. in Omaha, for the
use of their fine swimming pool by
Plattsmouth Boy Scouts at a very
nominal charge. If the boys bring
their own towels, they will be ad
mitted to the pool each Monday and
Friday evening at 5c, or 10c if they
use the towel service provided by the
'Y." At these hours, a swimming in
structor is present to give assistance
to beginners and after a course of a
few weeks, every boy should become
a proficient swimmer, thus enabling
him to qualify for merit badges in
that line as well as advancement to
the rank of first class Scouts.
Spurred on by the recent court of
honor held here, all members of the
local troop expect to make some ad
vancement before the date set for
holding: the next district court at
Peru March 21st, and the opportunity
of taking swimming lessons will be
welcomed by many, this being one of
the requirements before a boy can be
advanced to the rank of a first class
Scout.
Arrangements will be made among
local car owners and friends of the
Scouting movement to transport the
boys to and from Omaha on the two
days of each week when they can
have the advantages of the "Y's" reg
ular paid swimming instructor.
