Congratulations Dorothy. County Judge is Speaker At Rotary Meeting The jurisdiction of the county court effects more people than any other court in the land. Judge Raymond J. Case told Plattsmouth Rotarians at the group's regular meeting Tuesday noon. A guest of Program Chairman Cecil Krj-r, Case briefly explain ed some of the many types of duties which are handled in a routine manner by the county court. It's not all traffic vio lations, Case explained, pointing out that child adoption, estates, birth certificates and marriage licenses are among the more common activities in the judge's office. Case told the Rotarians that in his opinion, Plattsmouth and Cass county do not have any more serious juvenile problems than other cities of the same size. In fact, Case pointed out that about 90 per cent of the in vestigations show that parents are to blame, rather than the children. Proper training in the home, in the opinion of Judge Case, is the answer to the juvenile problems, where they exist. Another highlight of the Ro tary session was introduction of Junior Rotarians for the month of April. Introduced by Supt. T. I. Friest were John Blotzer, junior, and David Newburn, senior. The two high school students will attend all April meetings of the group. Visiting at the Tuesday session were Earl Jones of Council Bluffs and one of the be whiskered "Smith Brothers" of Glenwood. The Iowa city is celebrating its 100th anniversary and the proverbial whisker club has sprung up. WHAT NO BRAINS?
