John Easter and his home-made "train."
' After several years of sluggish
ness jn the commercial world, Sum
merfield, Kanl, a' town of 500 souls,
has been imbued again with munici
pal spirit." ' ' '
And the credit for the birth of
this new life goes to John Easter,
native pf the little town, -who caught
the spirit. I
' irummerfielu is r 20 miles lrom
Axtell. Kau., where St. Joseph and
Gran J Island trail! service termi
nates. ' ' "
; For 3-ears,' Summcrf ield . was
served by the Kansas City & North
western railroad, running from
Kansas City to Virginia, Neb.
, Road Loses Money.
But from' the time the world war
began in 1914, the railroad began
to lose money.
Debts of the company piled up
until-finally. in 1918, the train serv
ice was stopped.
And business in Summerfield be
gan to show a decline.
' Freight had to be hauled by truck
or wagon to 'Axtell, and the mail,
became slow and uncertain.
But there was a youn'g man in
Summerfield ... who would ' not sit
idly by and see the business of his
home town go to the wall.
He- read in the papers how a town
in southwestern Kansas deprived, of
railroads equipped an automobile
truck with flange wheels and
operated it on a railroad track. .
Washed .Off Bridge. .
This truck-train was washed oft
a bridge during a heavy storm -and
the. driver and three passengers were
drowned.
So this Summcrville 'man,' John
Easter, went direct to the scene of
the wreck, purchased the salvaged
truck, replaced' the body on the
flange-wtieel trucks, and now
operate "The Eastern Special."..
It makes one round trip a day, to
Axtell, carries passengers,' hauls a
trailer which almosts , doubles ' h
capacity for freight, arid now busir
vess in Summerfield is on the boom
and the mails are regular again.
And the citizens are once again
talkinu of paving the main street, a
project abandoned along with, the
Kansas City and Northwestern rail
road. . ,
Bank Charter Extended
i Washington, D. G, May ,14.
(Special Telegram.) The charter of
Merchants National bank 'of Ne
braska Citv, Neb., has been 'ex
tended to May 13, 1941.
Headed by Mayor Bert Miller, a j
delegation of residents of Calhoun
called on YV. A.' Ellis, assistant com
missioner of the Omaha Chamber of
Commerce, yesterday, to ask that
the Chamber of Commerce and other
civic organizations in favor of im
proved roads, protest against ending
the Washington highway pavement
at Calhoun. The delegation was
composed of Mayor Bert Miller, Reo
Frank, C. E. Keese, C. C. Allison,
Henry Rohwers, H. E. Walton, H.
A. Harper and J. W. Inslcr.
- Douglas county has voted to pave j
the Washington highway as far as.
the coiintv line north of rlorcnce.
' Through the north portion ' of
Washington county, from Blair, the
road is to be paved, but the paving
ends before reaching Calhoun, leav
ing a stretch of about eight miles tin-
improved.
Residents of the southern portion
of Washington county think that this
stretch of unimproved road hinders
their marketing as well as causing
tourists to detour.
The good roads committee of the
Chamber, of .Commerce and members
of the Auto club met yesterday noon
at the Chamber of Commerce to dis
cuss the Washington county delega
tion s request for co-operation.
