V,: - $ :" V ' --MV v-ay. a -,. Adjutant Webb at Work on Legion Post Membership Records BEGINS TWENTY-FIRST YEAR Yesterday marked the beginning of his twenty-first year of continuous service as post adjutant of the local American Legion post and found Elmer Webb busy at the desk part of the day transcribing membership records onto new index cards from the old ones that have been used since the post was organized, Sep tember 30, 1919. It was on August 4. 1920, that Webb was named adjutant, after hav ing served as acting adjutant since early in May. The election was held at the K of C hall, and the late W!l liam Shepp was named commander. Five months later, on January 5, 1921, because of change in fiscal year decreed by department head quarters another post election took place and Emil Hild, newly elected commander (now of Council Bluffs) prevailed upon the incumbent to con tinue as adjutant with the promise that "I'll let you off when Jim (two- weeks-old first-born) is able to say 'Da! Da!' " A motion was even pass ed at that meeting that "The post commander be empowered to name an assistant adjutant to work with the adjutant and qualify to assume the duties of adjutant." But somehow that was never done, and now, twen ty years later, with Jim a sophomore at university, "Da! Da!" is starting upon his twenty-first year the old-' est post adjutant in Nebraska and one of three or four oldest in point of service in the nation. Webb's service as adjutant has been under twenty-two of the post's twenty-four commanders. In addition his service as acting adjutant the last three months of A. H. Duxbury's term, leaves only the first comman der. Frank H. Smith, under whom he has not taken minutes for transcrip tion into the permanent records. Following Smith, Duxbury, Shopp and Hild, post commanders in order of succession have been: Eugene Lis ter, A. W. Hollmeyer and Raymond Larson. 1922. Larson, 1923; Roy Holly, 1924-1925; Tom Walling, 192G; Henry Soennichsen, 1927; Les lie Niel, 1928; Fred Lugsch, 1929; Otto Lutz. 1930; Garold Holcomb and Albert Olson, 1931; W. T. Dis tell and Clyde Jackson, 1&32; Albert Olson. 1933; Dr. R. P. Westover. 1934; June Marshall, 1935; Fred Herbster, 1936; Harrison L. Gayer, 1937; E. G. Ofe, 1938-1939; George THREE-WAY SMASHUP Prom Monday' Dally Last night north of this city on highway No. 75 a three-way smask up of two cars and a truck took place, but in which fortunately no one was gravely injured. Ted Svoboda, returning home from the picnic had stopped his car sud denly in the line of traffic and just ahead of that driven by LaVern Hen nings. As the two cars were stopped a truck coming back of the Hennings car hit the car and forced it into that of Mr. Svoboda. In the car of Mr. Hennings was his mother, Mrs. Charles Hennings and Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Hennings and son, Gerald. Mrs. C. C. Hennings sustained a cut on the head in the smashup and all were more or less shook up and bruised. TO VISIT IN MISSOURI Mrs. E. G. Ofe of this city wita her sisters, Mrs. R. R." Berggren of San Antonio, Texas, and Mrs. Week worth and daughter, Betty, of Oma ha, are to leave this week for Win ona, Missouri, where they will en jay a visit with their father, Charles McBride, formerly of this city. Conis. 1940 and the new commander, Frank Rebal, for year ending in July, 1941. Four hundred and fourteen have belonged to the post at some time since its organization and Adjutant Webb has an index card for every one of them, showing the years be longed and those missed, together j with duplicate copies of all member ship receipts issued. The first set of these index cards, which were stret ched into covering 22 years by using the margins, are now having to be replaced with new cards. Information contained on the first set of indexes i3 being condensed and transferred to the new files, to provide in all a 40 year individual membership record when completed. Twenty-eight cards have been moved from the active file, due to death. Doubtless other deaths have occurred among the scores of other one-time members who have moved away and been lost track of. Eleven members, on payment of 1941 dues, qualify for 23 years of continuous membership. They are: George Conis, A. II. Duxbury, Dr. P. T. Heineman, Raymond Larson, Fred Lugsch, Otto Lutz, Leslie Niel, John Palacek, John E. Turner, Robert M. Walling, Elmer Webb and Max Val lery. Peak membership of the post was 177 in 1921, the year before the railroad strike. Since 1922, in only five years has membership exceeded 100, the last of these being 1931 with 111. This year's 78 is highest since 1932's 94. Establishment of a post at Louisville and a shift of Union and Murray service men to the Nehawka post, caused a drop in membership here from the peak years of the early twenties. Po3t dues were $2 a year until 1930, $3 a year since then. The post sponsors a Scout troop, Junior drum corps and Junior base ball and has had for its slogan al most from the beginning "A Live Post A Live Town." Besides being adjutant, Webb is a member of the board of trustees administering the Legion owned com munity building, and chairman of the Boy Scout committee. His office maintains a cemetery plat and rec ords of the 32 Legionnaires and ser vice men- buried here as well as the twelve from here who- have been taken elsewhere for burial. i ORCHESTRA MAKES TRIP The Joe Sinkule orchestra of Omaha, of which Art Skalak and Ralph Stava of this city are mem bers, have Just returned from a trip of 1,300 miles in -which they have entertained several thousand persons at the dances where they played. The places visited included Sidney, Nebraska, Julesburg ana Holyoke, Colorado, and Oberlin, Kan sas. They had large crowds at the dances and delighted audiences. The members were much impressed with the dryness and conditions in that section of the country from this part of Nebraska. VISITS WITH OLD FRIENDS Rev. and Mrs. J. C. Lowson have as their guest at the parsonage this week, Miss Louise Nary, of Philadel phia, an old friend of many years standing. Miss Nary who is a de signer in Philadelphia, comes from the same town in England as the Lowson family, she coming to this country some time before the Platts mouth friends. The visit is one much enjoyed altho filled with regret for he homeland that is suffering the piivations of war and whose sturdy people are girding for greater 6acri uce. STOLEN CAR ABANDONED From Wednesday's Datij This morning ai an early hour a car was reported abandoned north of this city just east of the Oreapolis viaduct, to Sheriff Joe Mrasek. The car was a 1939 Dodge coupe and bore a Douglas county license plate, ne ar had the wheels and tires removed when found. Sheriff Mrasek called the Omaha police department, who in turn reached the owner of the license who had not at that time discovered the loss of the car. The car was taken back to Omaha by a wrecker later in the morning.

EXTEND APPRECIATION The officers of the Cass County Chapter of the' American Red Cross wish to express their appreciation to the Cass county people for their fine co-operation during the "Learn to Swim" week just closed. Without the hearty co-operation of everyone this program would not be possible. From each of the seventeen Cass ccunty towns free transportation has been provided to the pools nearest them where free swimming lessons were given to each group for one week. Our thanks to the drivers. To the management of Merritt's Peach, Plattsmouth, and Lake Park, South Bend, Cass county should be very grateful as these pools have been turned over, gratis, to the Red Cross for the school of instruction each year. Cass County Chapter A. R. C. has given this service. Our thanks also to the local chair man of swim week in every town. Their responsibility has not been small. The co-operation of Louisville fire men and business men was very out standing. They made personal con tributions to the amount of $300 besides giving of their time and strength and filled in the north end of Stone Lake (where the Red Cross instruction is given) making of it a good wide beach, thus removing much of the hazard and danger for beginners and giving the people of Louisville and surrounding commun ity a fine bathing beach. Henry Davis deserves our thanks for serving as chairman of this project. We especially wish to express our appreciation to all who assisted as instructors and life savers. It has been very gratifying to find those who have been instructed in the A. R. C. other years coming back and giving their time and ability to help teach and protect the new stu dents. We have been very fortunate in securing Mrs. Harriett Benson of Fremont as this year's instructor and examiner. Her work has been excel lent. We jilso have been fortunate in securing Miss Betty Clements of j p, mwood as county chairman of life saving. Miss Clements is a Red Cross examiner herself and fully appre ciates evtry part of the life saving fervice. To her untiring efforts much credit is due. r,f-r,innii,g seven years ago, only a few tool: advantage of the free in struciii n feiven by the A. R. C. This year several hundred have attended classes in a business-like way and put forth their best efforts in learn ing to swim and also pass the tests for life savers. You who give your dollar when roll call comes next No vmber are also helping to make this program possible. All Cass county newspapers have been most generous in giving space to publicize thi3 service. It has taken the splendid co-operation of all. including the children them selves, to carry to completion, with out any kind of accident, this seventh year of life saving service for the boys and girls of Cass county. My sincere thanks to all who have help ed in any way. MRS. R. E. NORRIS, chair man Cass County Chapter, American Red Cross. CHECKING OVER AFFAIRS Mrs. Kate Oliver Morgan came down from Omaha to spend some time here in looking over her prop erty interests and business affairs. Mrs. Morgan has been in Omaha for the past few years but regards Plattsmouth as her home and where she has many friends. In conversa tion with a Journal representative she states that after arranging her affairs she will make a campaign tour through Cass, Sarpy, Douglas and Lancaster counties for the third term candidacy of President Roose velt. CONSCRIPTION NO THREAT While many authorities over the country claim that prospective pass ing of a compulsory military train ing bill is causing a rush to the matrimgnial altar, Judge A. H. Dux bury has contrary views. The Judge states that he has not been called upon to perform a mar riage ceremony since July 20th, showing clearly that the Cass county youns: people are not fearing con scription or the hot weather has dim med the desire for matrimony. RECEIVES CONGRATULATIONS Plattsmouth's new librarian. Miss iVerna Leonard was very pleased Mon- day afternoon shortly after 4:15. She Received a message from N. C. Abbott, superintendent of the school for the blind at Nebraska City, who con gratulated her on her recent appoint ment a Plattsmouth's librarian.
