Group Attending.
From Saturday's Dally
The annual school dance of the
Plattsmouth high school was held
last evening at the high school gym
nasium, sponsored by the student
council. Music was furnished by Ross
Xichols. Charles Howard and the
four Ziggenbein boys. The high
school group assembled at 7:30 and
enjoyed the dance until 10:30.
This is the third year for dancing
in the riattsmouth high school and
it has proved to be one of the very
popular pastimes among the school
activities. The charge of tc is made
for those who take part to pay for
the loud speaker or to apply on the
orchestra chai'ge. Many students are
learning to dance and being instruct
ed in social etiquette on these occa
sions. 1 ne parents ana patrons are
invited to attend this all-school ac
tivity as non - participants and
throughout the social season for this
school year it is hoped that some par
ents will take advantage of the op
portunity to observe and enjoy the
dancing hour.
The rules require that there be one
evening dance a semester and that
all other dances be from 4 to 6 in the
afternoon.
A WORD TO CLUB PRESIDENTS
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEETS
The Chamber of Commerce met
Thursday and had a very pleasing
attendance of the members of the
directors.
The greater part of the time was
taken up in the discussion of the
proposal to tear down the former
high school building. A number of
the members offered suggestions as
to having the building restored and
to what uses it might be put.
A committee composed of John P.
Sattler. Sr., and Searl S. Davis was
appointed to confer with the board
of education as to the possibility of
having the building repaired and
placed to some use.
District Judge V. W. Wilson and
Court Reporter Glenn Woodbury were
at the meeting and Judge Wilson gave
a resume of the work of the Nebraska
City Chamber of Commerce.
The Journal is anxious at all times
to publish news of your meetings
and other activities of community in
terest. On one occasion within the
past week our office called four dif
ferent" parties for a story on an im
portant club meeting held the night
before and was referred by each of
the parties called to someone else,
who might be able to "give you the
story."
The time of busy newspaper re
porters is too much taken up to do
this, and we feel sure that presidents
of clubs who are anxious to see news
of their various activities in the pa
per will ' be willing to co-operate
by delegating to some certain mem
ber of the organization the job of
publicity chairman that person to
act as contact representative with
the newspaper in getting into our
hands accurate information of all the
club's more important activities. It
is not necessary to write the story,
although that is permissable," sub
ject to possible nominal editing to
conform with set newspaper require
ments. The all important thing is
that we desire the news of your
meetings and activities and that the
same be available to us by ten o'clock
of the forenoon after your meeting.
No news story is worth half as much
when run two or three days or more
after the meeting.
Please arrange for a publicity
chairman for your club or organiza
tion and see that he or she maintains
contact with the newspaper.
The same applies to individuals
entertaining. We want and are glad
to publish your after meeting news,
and with your co-operation hope to
continue to improve the Journal and
its service to the readers.
MRS. R. A. BATES,
Publisher.

"... We lost everything in the
flood but what we were wearing, and
with six children to feed, clothe and
educate, we never would be able to
do anything to our house. It would
probably sit lodged against the tree,
right where it is until it rotted down,
if it wasn't for the Red Cross. Some
times I wake up in the night and
just think Suppose we didn't have
a Red Cross and I get so frightened
I can't sleep, so I say 'Thank God for
the American Red Cross' ..."
