School Classes Organized for the Coming Year Select Officers and Sponsors to Guide Them Through the Many Class Activities for the Term. ENTESTAIN FRIENDS The beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Emmons J. RIchey was the scene of a very delightful gathering of their friends on Sunday evening, the occasion being a costume party as well as a house warming. The Richey home has during the past summer been remodeled and is now one of the most attractive In the city, making a charming setting for the jolly gathering. Throughout the rooms . the fall flowers added their beauty to the scene. The guests arriving in costume created a great deal of merriment as each of the members of the party was introduced and the party pre sented a wide array of the gowns and suits of other days as well as those of more modern time. During the evening a delightful buffet supper was served to the mem bers of the Jolly group. A number of the friends from Omaha were in attendance at the event. Persistency Is what counts most In advertising! TWIN PUMPKINS Thi3 seems to be a seasoi for twins in the vegetable kingdom and W. P. Albee of this city has at his home a fine twin pumpkin, two perfectly formed and joined as Siamese twins. The freak was discovered a few days ago when he was working in his garden. Weeping Water Citizen Dies Thomas Anderson Dixon was born in the state of Missouri on January 30, 1873, and lived there until he wa? about twenty years of age, when he came with his family to Nebraska, they locating in the vicinity of Weep ing Water, where he has resided ever since. Their former home had been near Fairplay, Mo. During the past year he has not been in the best of health and he passed away on Friday, September 20th, at his home in this city. Mr. Dixon had long been a faithful member of the Mennonite church, from whence the funeral was held on Monday afternoon of this week, the services being conducted by the Rev. J. A. Parsell, pastor of the church. Interment was in Oakwood cemetery. Besides the aged wife, he leaves nine children to mourn his departure, they being: L. C, Guy, Herman, Frank, William A., Victor C. and Thomas Dixon, Jr., Mrs. Carrie and Daisy Baker. Played on Town Hall Program Last Sunday, Dr. Kintner, in his auto, and accompanied by F. H. Har mon, wife and son, Duane, left for a trip to New York City. Duane, who was winner of the Mid-West amateur contest, was scheduled to play on the "Town Hall" amateur hour Wednes day night, direct from Radio City, broadcasting headquarters of the NBC. Also, on arrival in the east, they expected to apply for a place on the Major Bowes amateur hour, but we do not know if this has been ar ranged or not. In case it is, his date would probably be Sunday evening, October 20th, which is designated as Omaha night on the Bowes program. Duane is' a very talented young cor netist and won the Mid-west contest over a large number of contestants in all lines. He appeared on the closing night's program of the King Korn karnival at Plattsmouth Saturday and received much applause. A further account of his playing on the Town Hall program wil be found elsewhere in this issue. The classes of the Plattsmouth high school have completed their or ganization for the forthcoming term and are now fully launched on the program of class activities under ! their officers and the class sponsors. This is one of the big events of the school year and the students have maintained a keen interest in the or ganzaton of ther groups that they may attan the very best results from the various activities that will from now on mark each class. The seniors, wno the coming spring will leave the old high school a3 graduates have selected as their officers, Joe Hendrix as president; Betty Bulin, vice-president; Kathryn Armstrong as the secretary-treasurer, while J. R. Reeder, the principal of the high school, will be the senior sponsor. The juniors, who always face a very strenuous program that will in clude the annual Jhnior-Senior ban quet, have named as the officers, Wil liam Carey as president; Rachel Robertson, vice-president; Ruth New- land, secretary; Marjorie Tidball treasurer, and Miss Beighley and Mr. Gerner as their sponsors to assist in the many activities of the class. The sophomores in their meeting selected as their officers for the year. Robert Woest as president; Dick Hall, vice-president; Jane Rebal, secretary treasurer; with Mr. Alvord as the sponsor. The freshmen in launching their class for the first year in the high school, have named a full list of officers and are now ready with the rest of the school for the program of the year. The officers named were: James Webb, president; John Tidball, vice-president; Maxine Nielsen, sec retary; Ronald Rebal, treasurer and Mr. Hoyt Griffin as the class mentor. Has Won a Trip J. J. Meier, the druggist, who also sells Norge refrigerators, was winner of a trip to be taken some time in January as a result of his splendid salesmanship ability in disposing of a greater number of refrigerators than others in his division. There are a total of 75 Norge dealers who are to make this trip as guests of the com pany and Mr. Meier is looking for ward to a splendid time. Displayed a Friendly Spirit Citizens of all parts of Cass county are well pleased with the great suc cess attained by this year's county fair, with its large number of entries in all classes and the fine attendance on each of the four days. The weather was perfect and the great success is pleasing to all. The same is likewise true of the Korn Karnival at Platts mouth, which this year rose to new heights of attendance and interest, having the same fine weather all of the four days it was conducted. Another thing in connection with these two feature exhibitions that has impressed us greatly is the fine spirit of co-operation that was manifested. During the fair, a large delegation of Plattsmouth boosters accompanied by their Junior drum corps, came over to fraternize with the Weeping Water people on Plattsmouth day and had a splendid time. Then last .week, on Friday, while the Korn Karnival was at its height, the Weeping Water folks repaid the visit, going in a large group and marching in the parade. Each of the delegations wore distin guishing ribbons and it was inspiring to note the co-operation that exists. It is such co-operation that brings about success and is responsible for the large crowds that attended the two exhibitions this year. Let's keep up the good work and all join hands in boosting for the continued success of each show during the succeeding years.
