Alvo News
Miss McGinnis, ,who was an in
structor in the Alvo schools during
the past year, will teach in the Union
schools this year, beginning her work
there this week.
Roy Stuart has been digging a sec-
end cess pool at his home, connect
ing it with the one already in use so
there may be sufficient drainage for
the water used about the home.
Hon. W. B. Banning and son, Hal
las Banning, both of whom are em
ployed in Lincoln, were guest3 for the
evening and for supper at the home
of John Eanning on Tuesday of last
week, driving out from the capital
city for the evening.
John Elliott reports the sale of
ten tractors during the past week to
farmers of this vicinity. That doesn't
look much like the end of power farm
ing operations and the return of the
horse to pull the plows and other
farming equipment.
Misses Dorice and Grace Rueter,
daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rue
ter, were visiting at the home of
their sister, Mrs. Wayne Wiles, at
Weeping Water, the latter part ol
last week, returning home in time to
enter school early this week.
Art Dinges, mayor of Alvo,' and his
wife, were at Beatrice on Tuesday of
last week, where they attended the
American Legion convention, that be
ing one of the most colorful days of
the session, with the parade and the
drum corps contests in the evening.
Mr. and Mrs. John Banning were
visiting for the day last Sunday at
the home of her uncle and aunt, Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas Egan, at Peru.
They drove over in their car Sunday
rooming, where they enjoyed tffcIayT
very plecsantly and stopped for a
short time in Union on their return. "
Rural Carrier .Albert B. Stromer,
accompanied by his wife, left on last
Thursday for Wauneta, where they
expected to visit for a few days at
tue home of Mrs. Stromer's brother,
II. C. Erowne and family. While Mr.
Stromer i3 away the mail is being
carried by R. M. Coatman, who is
substitute carrier.
Suffered Severe Injury
While John B. Skinner was doing
some heavy work he strained himself
sufficient to cause a rupture of the
abdominal wall, which has compelled
him to go to bed for a few days. It
i3 hoped he may be able to secure re
lief and a cure without having to
undergo an operation, but that is
rather uncertain.
Will Make Home in West
William Coatman, father of our
townsman, R. M. Coatman, who has
made Lis home in Weeping Water
since the death of his aged wife, held
a sale on last Saturday and rented
the home to one of the men in charge

Water. He is expecting to make his
home with his daughter, Mrs. M. L.

as with a sister of Mrs. Hauptman,
Mrs. G. E. Bruhacher and family, of

of school drew near, they returned to
Alvo and are now nicely settled in a
new home in another section of town,
ready for the school bell to call the

all they had a most pleasant vacation

the summer school.
Engineers and
Chevies Stage a
Great Battle
Rivermen Winners by Score of 3 to 0
Hans Newman Does Stuff
as Chevie Hurler.
From Friday's Tally
Last evening the shivering kitten-
ball fans had the opportunity of see
ing one of the best games of the sea
son at Athletic park when the U. S.
Engineers and the Chevrolets staged
a 3 to 0 battle in favor of the river
men. The game also furnished a fine ex
hibition of pitching between Ken
nedy of the Engineers and that grand
veteran of baseball and kittenball,
Hono3 Newman, the two hurlers al
lowing five and seven hits.
Both teams showed great fielding
ai tIie Engineer committed nary an
error and the Chevies but one little
bobble.
The Engineers made all of their
runs in the sixth inning with the
game being a great struggle up to
that time, both teams playing their
heads off in their bid for victory.
The box score of the game was as
follows:

There was a full attendance of
the members of the city council Mon
day evening to take up the full pro
gram of business that was reposing
In the hopper for their consider
ation. City Clerk Olson reported a num
ber of communications received at
his desk, one asking permission to
construct a new addition to the New
Way Castle building which was re
ferred to the parks and improvements
committee; one to cut the curbing on
South 6th street, made by Herman
Hough and which was referred to
the streets, alleys and bridges com
mittee by the mayor.
Police Judge Graves reported four
arrests for the week ending August
ISth and fines and costs of $6 and
for the week, ending August 24th.
no arrests but S2S in back fines col
lected. Chairman Puis of the judiciary
committee announced that the city
attorney would file an answer in the
suit of John Bauer against the city.
Chairman Tippens of the streets,
alleys and brides committee, report
ed that the condition of North Sth
street due to a leaking sewer was
most deplorable and that while the
sewer was a private one that there
apparently was no response from the
owners in the district to assist In the
work. He asked that the regular
street force be authorized to dig up
the street, repair the leak and that
the same be charged to the owners
of the sewers.
Mr. Tippens was also authorized by

The license committee which has
in the last few sessions been the
busy committee, again came to the
front with applications for beer li
censes. The applications of George
Conis for an "on sale" and B. C.
Cdhn for "off sale" were passed and
recommended to the state board.
In the matter of the application
of Henry Timm for '.license, the com
mittee stated that remonstrance had
been made as to the location pro
posed with objection from the resi
dents In block 35 where it is pro
posed to have the tavern opened. The
remonstrance was read together with
a petition signed by others in the
same block asking that the petition
be granted to Mr. Timm. Mayor
Lushinsky asked that anyone inter
ested present give their views of the
matter. Carl Kunsmann, owner of
the building, called the attention ofj
the council to the fact that the sign-jpaJd
ers in ravor or ttie tavern were all Joe Sedlak, work at cemetery.?

neer had thought the city could pos

WPA with the highway in question
just a temporary state and federal
highway. On motion of Mr. Bestor
the committee was authorized to se
cure County Surveyor R. D. Fitch to
get the plans ready for submission.
Mr. Bestor also suggested that dirt
be moved from. the Walker place to
the lots on Chicago avenue owned by
the city and which would imnroveithe Eastern Star of this city
very much both of the places. This
was adopted.
Councilman Rebal suggested that
the city offer as a WPA project that
of the extension of the sewers on
Chicago and Washington avenues
which are badly needed and would
make a permanent improvement to
both sections of the city. This meas
ure was supported by Councilman
Tippens. Councilman Webb thought
that the city should get as many proj
ects as possible but that all of the
- i
councilmen should assist in getting'
these lined up instead of just one
committee. Mr. Webb also opposed
the use of an engineer on all projects
as too costly. The motion of Mr.

themselves advancing in years and
their interest waning in the hilarious
type of conventions that prevailed a
few years ago and the conventions
themselves assume a different tone
