From Tuesday's Early Election time is always exciting and interesting at a Woman's club meet ins? anl last night proved no exception when the riattsmouth Woman's club met at Hotel Platts mouth for its annual election. All officers were re-elected except Mrs. E. H. Wescott, who had declared earlier she could not serve another year. Mrs. Lowell S. Devoe, who has received so many honors in Woman's club work, received another honor when she was elected the president. The officers for the coming year are as follows: President Mrs. Florence Devoe. Vice-President Mrs. R. C. Shel lenbarger. Recording Secretary Mrs. L. W. Egenberger. Treasurer Mrs. William Hein rich. Corresponding Secretary Mrs. Frank Horsak. It is very fitting that the Flatts mouth club has the services of Mrs. Devoe as president before she serves in that capacity as district presi dent. More complimentary letters, which were very much appreciated, were ;read cn the success of fhe conven tion from Mrs. Walter Kiechel, Te- leumseh, state director; Mrs. Oscar i jWarp, Minden, editor of the "Ne jbraska Club Woman"; Mrs. R. D. Mershon, Cook, newly-elected presi dent of First District; and Mrs. II. P. Doole of Lincoln, state chairman of f or tne program on "Buyer Guid ance," which was in charge of Miss Mathilde Soennichsen, Mr. Patrick of the Patrick Drapery company of Omaha, showed many samples of drapery and slip-cover material, and he advised how to use them. Many questions were asked on the correct style of draperies and slip-covers and Mr. Patrick's answers were quite enlightening to all the women. Miss Eloise Cole .played a piano solo, a number which was enjoyed by the group. Following the meeting refresh ments were served by the hostesses: Mesdames Frank Mullen, Elmer Yardley, Lora Lloyd Kieck and Fred 1. Rea.

Hilt Homers for 1 to 0 Victory Over Louisville Hicks, Louisville Twirler, Gives Up Eut One Hit Shiffer Shines for Blue Devils in Field By ROBERT COOK In the third inning Ralph Hilt stepped to the plate and whacked the ball over the left field bank for a home run and Plattsmouth's only hit in a 1-0 shutout over Louisville. Hilt truly won his own ball game as he struck out five and gave the visi tors two hits for his second consecu tive shutout. Harry Shiffer made a couple of one-handed stabs "of two Sheeny Mikes in the sixth to help the Blue Devils out during a stretch of wildness on Hilt's part. Hicks struck out six and kept the Blue Devils euessing, but his mates couldn't overcome Hilt's circuit clout. B. Knutsen's double and D. Alfrey's single were Louisville's hits. Five Louisville men saw first base while two Blue Devils managed to get" there. In the first for Louisville B. Alfrey walked and Blair forced him at second. A. Alfrey poked one into center field to send Blair to sec ond, but Hilt bore down to get Hicks and Brown and end the threat. For Plattsmouth Parriott walked and reached second only to be picked off. Hicks to Blair. In the third Hilt smashed the apple out and beyond the downs and the winning run. From, there on Hicks retired twelve men in row. In Louisville's half of the fifth B. Knutsen doubled and advanced to third on .Sehomaker's roller to Martin but died there. In the sixth. Hilt, tired from pitching a no-hitter Thursday, weak ened and walked Elair who stole second and went to third on Cho vanec's wild heave to second. Hicks walked, and McShane pinch-hit for Brown. He bopped a blooper just over third and Shiffer cruised back into the treacherous muck and on precarious footing made a nice one handed grab of it to pull Platts mouth out of the fire. Marion JHicks and Ralph Hilt pitched a torrid duel, and the best man won although a badly under rated Louisville team put up a val iant battle. Box score: Louisville- AT5 R TI TO 2 0 0 0 B.

Corn Planting Time Nears A large truck load of $7 hybrid seed corn was delivered to farmers of this vicinity last Monday, filling orders previously placed. They say the planting of this type corn in volves an expenditure of about $1 an acre, but feel the increased yield far more than justifies the added cost over open polinated varieties. As expressed in the popular song hit of today, "There's been Some Changes Made" in fanning methods, the same as other things, in the last few decades and the planting of hy brid seed is one of them.
