vice aimed to produce better farm
and garden work or to improve the
method of doing things in the black
smith shop. His latest creation is an

cluding a Dodge car and a number of

t; perfection.

Interesting Masonic Meeting
At a meeting of the Masonic lodge
a i Weeping WateiMast Monday even
ing, visitors were present from Ne
hawka, Plattsmouth, Elmwood and
other points to witness the confer
ring of the Master Mason degree on
three Fellowcraft Masons Floyd
Ilite, a former Murdock man, Rich
ard Keckler and Stanley Schraugh
er. Ivan McCrorey of Murdock was
among those present.
Attended Funeral Service
Henry A. Tool and I. C. McCrorey
were in Elmwood last Tuesday, where
they attended the funeral of Richard
C. Deles Dernier, who died at a Lin
coln hospital on Sunday, following
an operation a few days before. Mr.
Deles Dernier had been a member of
the Masonic order for many years
and was buried with Masonic honors
by his local lodge at Elmwood, of
which Mr. Tool and Mrs. McCrorey
are members.
Judge Duxbury to Speak
Miss Myrtle Wood to whom was
assigned the matter of securing a
speaker for the exercises to be held
at the Wabash cemetery on Memorial
Sunday, May 28, has been able to
tecure County Judge A. H. Duxbury
of Plattsmouth. If the weather is
fair, a large crowd will assemble at
the cemetery to pay Memorial trib
ute to the deceased war veterans
who are buried there and hear the
address of the learned jurist.
Water Supply Failing
The well which has heretofore sup
plied barely sufficient water to meet
the needs of the community, is de
creasing in volume until it has be
come necessary to look for a more
plentiful supply. Two test holes have
been put down, but no satisfactory
results so far. It is hoped that an
adequate supply of good water may
be located.
Similar conditions prevail in many
towns, where wells that for years
have furnished an abundance of the
aqua pura are gradually drying up.
forcing the communities to take
other means. Weeping Water and
Nehawka are but two near-at-home
examples of this condition and at
Murray a great deal of experimenting
and expense was necessary before an
adequate well was located. Until a
greater amount of moisture comes to
this territory, there is probability of
the condition becoming more aggra
vated rather than better.
Expect to Make Home in Lincoln
During recent years there seems
not to be sufficient employment in
the line of painting and home deco
ration in this vicinity to enable all
in this line an opportunity to make
a comfortable living. Homer H. Law
ton has been compelled to accept em
ployment in his line and has done
much work in the capital city. Just
recently George Small, who has been
making his home near South Bend,
sought to buy a home in Murdock
and he and Mr. Lawton made a deal,
and Mr. Lawton is now making ar
rangements to locate in Lincoln.
The trouble is not so much a lack
of work to be done in the decorat
ing line, but the fact that scanty
crops do not supply nor warrant the
spending of any extra money.
Blue Eibbon Pig Club
The Murdock Blue Ribbon pig cub
met at the home of John Schlaphof
on May 15. John is leader of the
club, which is doing some splendid
work. All the boys were present.
The club membership now numbers
eight boys. James Mills, Donald
Rikli, Silas Schlaphoff. Warren Rikli,
Stuart Mills, Merle Buell, Howard
Bornemeier and George Buell. Mr.
Johnson, the county agent, was pres
ent and was able to assist materially
with the study period.
The lesson consisted in naming
the different parts of a hog. Sor
gum crops were also discussed.
Mrs. Schlaphof served a fine lunch
at the conclusion of the session.

terests. Howard says there has been
more moisture out that way than

looking better. A good rain recently
has enhanced the prospect of a good
wheat crop for that part of the
country.
Sunday evening guests at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Rauth were
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Snell. A most
delightful supper was enjoyed. The
visit was especially pleasant because
of the fact that Mrs. Rauth made her
home with Mr. and Mrs. Snell when
a girl, and a relationship not unlike
that of mother and daughter exists
between them, so it was very appropo
that the Snells should time their
visit to the occasion of Mothers'
Day.

been in the best of health for sev
eral months and unable to do much
work, received an invitation from

ter the parents, which he did last
week, leaving Monday for the re
turn trip to his home at Waukesha.

spend thirty days or more there.
