Prolonged Illness.
Away
a
Mrs. Marie Wedclell. nee Kmse,
liorn March 2T, 1SS2, near Le Sueur,
Minnesota. cJeparted this life at her
home ill Murtiock, Nebraska, Thurs
day eveniiigr. June 10, 1937, at the
aire of 5 5 years, 2 months and 15
days.
She was educated in the Minne
sota public, schools in the early years
oi her life, and occasionally attend
ed the summer sessions of the church
German schools. She was confirmed
in the Lutheran church and united
with the church in Le Sueur early
in life, remaining- a member until
the time of her death.
Mrs. Weddell came to Nebraska
in 1903 and made her home in and
near Klmwood until 1904, when she
came to Murdock and found regular
employment. On March 12, 190S,
she was married to William T. Wed
dell of Murdock and has lived in
this village ever since.
She joined the Royal Neighbors
of America lodse in Murdock on
January 16. 1917, and served the
chapter faithfully throughout the
years as a member and officer. She
was elected the Receiver for the year
1920 and was re-elected to the same
office in 1931. She remained in
office until she found it necessary to
resign to so to the Bryan Memorial
hospital for further treatments to
regain her lost health and vigor.
The deceased experienced many
hours of suffering in recent years and
was compelled to submit to four long
periods of treatments in the last four
years. The family testify to the fact
that she was a patient sufferer,
never complaining. although at
times she was compelled to remain
in the hospital for many weeks.
With an unusual power of endur
ance and determination, she sought
to overcome the effects of a major
operation several years ago. After
a period of hospital treatments for
several months, she would give evi
dence of complete recovery, only to
be stricken again and again, until
relief came in a quiet, peaceful
sleep, from which she did not
awaken.
The departed leaves her devoted
and sacrificing husband, William T.
Weddell, her son Meredith and her
daughter, lone Weddell, of Murdock.
Likewise, she leaves two sisters, Mrs.
J. C. Jcnts, of St. Paul, Minn., and
Mrs. Edward Schlegle. of Le Sueur,
Minn., two brothers, Henry and Wil
liam of Le Sueur; a number of
cousins, which include Mrs. August
Klemme, of Ashland, Nebraska; Mrs.
William Knaup, of Murdock; Wil
liam, Charles and Irvin Rodenburg
and Mrs. Lydia Seba. of Drummond,
Oklahoma, together with her belov
ed lodge comrades of the Murdock
chapter and a host of friends in
Cass, Saunders and Lancaster coun
ties in Nebraska.
Funeral services were held Sun
day afternoon, June 13, 1937, in the
Ebenezer Evangelical church in
Murdock, by the Rev. Harvey A.
Schwab. Mrs. William Zabel and
Mrs. II. A. Schwab, accompanied by
Mrs. Emma Ward, rendered hymns
of comfort for the bereaved.
The pall bearers were Charles
Schafer, Myrle Gillespie, Henry
Iiackemeier, Henry Tool, Edward
Rrunkow and L. 13. Gorthey.
Interment took place in the Mur-dock-Wabash
cemetery.
DEATHS FROM INFLUENZA
Nebraska suffered the most ser
ious epidemic of influenza and pneu
monia last January since the World
war period, Dr. Bartholomew, state
health director, disclosed.
Deaths attributed to influenza to
taled 2S9 during the month and 2C9
persons died of pneumonia the
highest fatality record for respir
atory infection diseases since the win
ter of 191S-19. Dr. Bartholomew said
there. was some evidence that, the epi
demics of these diseases run in cycles.
Concerning the reduction of acci
dental deaths from a rate of S2.5 in
1935 to 81 for 1936, Dr. Bartholo
mew said nearly 10 percent reduc
tion in deaths from auto accidents
alone is evidence possibly of more
care in driving and maintaining mo
tor vehicles in better condition. Ac
cidents are classed as one of the six
principal causes of death. Scarlet
fever cases reported in May totaled
267 as compared with 486 for the
same month last year. The total num
ber of cases reported this year up to
date 13 1,694 compared with 3,546 for
the same period last year.

rest the elbows on the desk. This is
a lazy, but effective method of sup

If this habit is not corrected early,
it may cause the teeth to shift out

course, will result in irregularly

SOME QUAKES MAN MADE
St. Lotiis. Man made earthquakes
were described as among the latct-t
plagues to engineers. A paper deal
ing with "earth movements in the
region of Boulder dam," prepared by
Ralph R. Bodle of the United States
coast and geodetic survey and read
before delegates to the annual meet
ing of the eastern section of the
Seisniological Society of America, fo
cused the experts' opinion on "man
made shocks which seem to be oc
curring." Bodle discussed the possibility the
enormous amount of water impound
ed by Boulder dam 30,500.000 acre
1-ept. would conceivably produce
"marked changes in the earth's crust
in the vicinity of Mead lake," being
formed by the Colorado and Virgin
rivers.
"Two quakes already have been
felt in the area," Bodle said. "In
September, 1936, a series of slight
earth shocks occurred southwest of
Boulder City, New, where they were
distinctly felt. Slight shocks again
were felt in March of this year."
He said careful study of levels of
the region by engineers will be re
peated when the full water load is im
pounded in hope of definitely deter
mining "if the water load is to
blame."
MAY TRANSFORM A SANDPIT
North Platte. A sand pit in Cody
park hero -will be transformed into
a swimming pool for children, Leo
Seherer. WPA recreation director
said, if 'the city council approves
plans he has submitted.
Seherer began the annual summer
recreational program for school chil
dren this week with a record attend
ance. Plans for the summer include
hoys' and girls' roftball leagues,
hikes, fishing trips and fish fries.
Plattsmoutn offers a splendid
market for farm produce. Local
