ATTEND MYNARD PLAY
For those who have had the priv
ilege of witnessing the final rehears
als of the Mynard musical comedy,
"Mirage," -which was written and is
being directed by Raymond Cook, the
outstanding impression is that for
beautiful and colorful Bettings for the
scenes of its four acts and the quality
of the music around which the play
was written and leads up to, this pre
sentation will be far superior to any
thing of its kind ever presented in
this community.
Especially pleasing :s the camp
fire scene in the second act wherein
the characters gather around the
campfire and sing the old favorites of
the western range to the accompani
ment of "Banjo Bill's" banjo while
the moon, hanging over the distant
mountain range, in all reality shed
ding its soft glow ver the vista of
cactus and plain, painting a picture
that will linger in the memory of
the audience. The lovers of music

will be delighted with the high qual
ity of the songs and choruses used
throughout the entire presentation
for they will contain, not only the
songs so popular on the western
range, but some of the newest cre
ations just off the press.
One of the outstanding surprises
of the entertainment will be the
male quartet composed of Lawrence
Leonard, first tenor; Art Hild, sec
ond tenor; Chuck Howard, baritone
and Ed Howard, bass. Their rendi
tion of "The Last Roundup" and
"Marcheta" will be a real treat to
lovers of harmony.
It is no idle boast that among the
cast of twenty characters in the My
nard Musical Comedy, is included
some of the outstanding dramatic tal
ent in this part of the state and the
director and management assures the
public they will get more than their
money's worth in the evening of en
tertainment. The play will-be pre
sented four nights, March 26, 27,
2S and 29 at the Mynard Commun
ity Hall.
Arrangements are also being con
sumated to present the play at sev
eral other points over the county. A
few reserved seats are yet available.

AGED LADY
CALLED TO
LAST REWARD
Mrs. W. W. Coatman Dies at Weep
ing Water Where She Has Been
Loved and Honored Resident
The death of Mrs. William W.
Coatman, well loved pioneer of Weep
ing Water, occurred at the family
home there Tuesday evening. Mrs.
Coatman had suffered a paralytic
stroke in October, 1934 from -which
she never fully recovered, gradually
failing until death came to her re
lief. Miss Isabelle Malcolm w as born in
Jersey City, N. J., June 12, 1861,
where the family remained until the
conclusion of the civil war and for
a number of years following, when
with the mother, she came to Illinois,
where they remained, for a time be
fore coming to Nebraska when she
was sixteen years of age. The father
was a soldier in the civil war and
was killed before the subject of our
sketch was born.
Miss Malcolm was united in mar
riage with Wm. W. Coatman at Ne
braska City on September 27, 187S.
They came to southwest of Weeping
Water to live on a farm where they
resided for a number of years and
some twenty-five years ago moved to
Weeping Water to make their home.
Mrs. Coatman united as a girl with
the Presbyterian church, while in
Illinois and after coming to Nebraska
jointed the United Brethren church
as there was no Presbyterian church
where they reside, and later on com
ing to Weeping Water to reside join
ed the Methodist church, of which
she had been a devoted and consistent
member.
To this union was born five chil
dren, three girls and two boys, they
being W. W. Coatman of Elmwood;
Mrs. M. L. Gollaher of Grand Island;
Elsie who did when Cve yars of age;
R. M. Coatman of Alvo and Miss
Gladys Coatman, an instructor in
the schools at Ithaca, New York.
She is also survived by one sister,
Mrs. Elizabeth Hall of Santa Ana,
Calif., and a brother, Robert Mal
colm, aged So years, of Imperial.
She was stricken with a paralytic
stroke October 13, 1934, and had
been kept to her bed since that time,
gradually failing in health until
death came to her relief Tuesday
evening, March 19, at 5 o'clock.
During her illness she suffered in
tensely but always with patience and
love, having more concern for the
members of her family and her
friends than for herself.
The funeral was held Thursday
from the Methodist church, conduct
ed by Rev. E. S. Pangborn, with in
terment at Oakwood cemetery. The
Hobson funeral home had charge.
EXCURSION SHIP WRECKED
Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The ex
cursion schooner Laura, aground off
Utila with 116 persons aboard, was
wrecked but all lives were saved.
Dispatches said the 104 passen
gers and 12 members of the crew
were safe aboard relief boats which
hurried to the vessel after she re
ported herself in a precarious position.
Every penny spent for advertis
ing will yield a big return.
