AN UNUSUAL TREAT
Countess at Coronation
Mrs. Elsie Kelly and daughter.
Lucille, were Plattsmouth visitors
Wednesday evening, attending the
King Korn Karnival. Miss Lucille
represented Greenwood as the coun
tess in the coronation ceremonie3.
The people of Plattsmouth are to be
commended on this splendid enter
this state on November IS, 1888, to
Miss Maude Disher, of Burbon, In
diana. To this union one son was
born, who died in infancy.
Mr. Blattler began iarmini' near
Adam, Nebraska, where they resided
twelve years. From tnere they moved j
to Edwards county, Kansas, where
they lived twenty years, then return
ed to Nebraska ana settled in .Lin
coln. After ten years there, they
moved to Greenwood where they have
since resided.
He leaves to mourn his death his
wife and foster son, Charles Lau, of
Firth, Nebraska, also two brothers
and two sisters, George V., of Ot
tawa, Kansas, and Harry E. of Clar
ington, Ohio; Mrs. Durst of Cleve
land, Ohio, and Mrs. Wuerfel of
Ann Arbor, Michigan, besides a host
of staunch friends and acquaintances
here and at other points where they
have resided.
One of the outstanding features of
the King Korn Karnival of this year
has been the visit here of the sym
phony orchestra, composed of the
leading musical talent of Omaha, a
part of the recreational program of
the WPA.
The orchestra of some thirty pieces,
was directed by Ernest Nordine, Sr.,
one of tne best directors in tne west
and who was for many years leader
of the Orpheum, World and Rialto
orchestras in Omaha and is known to
hundreds over the state for his splen
did work. Joseph Ryan, concert mas
ter is also one of the leading musi
cians of Omaha.
Each member of the orchestra rep
resented the best in his line and cer
tainly their visit to Plattsmouth was
an occasion deeply appreciated by
the lovers of music.
Ordinarily an orchestra of the size
and the character of this group would
have cost a great deal of money to
have presented in a community like
this, but under the advantages of the
musical project of the WPA, they
were secured for the actual cost of
transportation.
That this aggregation may be
heard here again is the wish of all
who heard the concert.
