OLD fi ESI BENT DIES
IN KEARNEY. NEBRASKA
J. R. Neal, an old resident of
Iants, who left here April 23rd. for
Kearney, Neb., died at that place on
the 28th. according to word received
late last week by local frienda.
Mr. Neal was a sufferer from an
aggravated case of caneer of the
stomach and when he felt the end
sas near decided to go cast, where
he had many relatives, in order to
see them before the end .eame His
daughter, Mrs. Sadie Rosenbloom,
accompanied him and when he passed
away was at the bedside.
The wife of Mr. Neal died about
six months ago and was buried at
Kearney, where the remains of Mr.
Neal will be interred. The deceased

cast.
WALL PAPER NOW IN
GREAT DEMAND HERE
■
♦
“Time was here in Ianta when ev
en the most pretentious homes con
sidered ■ ‘tinted* walla quite the thing
but those days are past, and one of
the first requirements of miladv in
choosing a new home is that attrac
tive paper shall adorn the walls,“
says Chas. Warde, the 92nd street
decorator.
“Some people seem to think wall
paper is expensive that only the
very wealthy can afford^ to paper
their rooms, but such is' not neces
sarily the case. Manv dainty effects
for the sleeping room are available
at but a few cents a roll, while rich
tapestry paper for the living room
can be procured at a total expendi
ture of just a few dollars.“

the recipient of birthday honors. Last
Sunday about fifteen of her relatives

joying the splendid vocal selections
rendered by Edward Brewster, a
grand-nephew of Mrs, Coffman, and
a palatable luncheon served buffet
style. Then on Monday evening the
neighborhood friends of Mrs. Coff
man came to wish her just as many
happy returns of the day as she
would like to have. Violin solos by
Carl Hawkins, accompanied by Miss
Kirk, made the evening pleasant un
til a lunch consisting of salad, sand
wiches, coffee and cake, was served.
Mn. Tom McSloy sang several selec
tions in a pleasing manner.

The Arjeta Athletic club met the
Ridgefield Athletic club Sunday at
the latter’s home town.
The Port
land lads trotted home with a victory

The street railway company has a
crew of men at work repairing the

Woodmere School Notes
I Jut Friday night and Thursday
afternoon a most remarkable ami
aucesaful program waa put on by the
pupila under the direction of the
teachers. Those who drilled the
youngsters taking part certainly cov
ered themselves with glory, for sel
dom does one see such beautifully
trained children aa took part in that
program.
The primary teachers
taught and drilled their own classes
in their own particular exercises and
Miss Canning and Miss Brandt had
supervision over the intermediates.
To them belongs great credit and
praise.
The first part of the pro
gram was given by the primary de
partment and waa as follows: Folk
dance, third grade children; piano
duet, Katherine and Carolyn Schweit
zer; flower song, children of 1st and
2d grades; style show, pupils of 3rd
grade; apple blossom song, 1st
grade; darkey song and dance, 1st
grade; Scotch folk dance, 3rd gn.de.
Another pleaaing number waa a
proup of Armenian children, dressed
”1 native costume, singing their na
tional song in Armenian. Following
that, they sang in English “Beauti
ful America.”
“Old Pipes and the Dryads” was
put on by intermediate pupils. “Old
Pipes” waa played by Merle Nelson;
Margurete Norris was a dryad. Geo.
Blakeslee waa the “Echo Dryad” and"
waa exceptionally good. Ruth Faw
kes waa "Old Pipes’s" mother. The
prologue waa given by Beatrice
Fisher.
Between the first and second acts
Grace Fisher and Lewellyn Flier
sang two songs, balloon song and a
lullaby. Between the second and
third acta Everett Repp recited “Go
ing Barefoot.” and Lelia Sears gave
“The Last DolL” Virginia Morgan
sang “Sleep, Darling. Sleep.”
A beautiful Maypole dance was
given aa the third scene. The cos
tumes
represented
fairies.
The
whole thing was beautiful beyond
imagination and the results were in
deed gratifying to all who had work
ed so hard.
The proceeds will be used for the
general school fund.
Earl in June will be introduced
in musical entertainment the Wood-
mere Juevnile Orchestra.
The regular Parent-Teacher meet
ing waa held Thursday. May 12, at

Wednesday, Harry Carey in "Hearts
Up”, and a two-reel Century comedy.
Thursday, Robt. Warwick in "The
14th Man”, episode No. 10 of "Dou
ble Adventure".
Lights Are Needed
The conditions in each locality are
peculiar to that locality. Our prom
ised Mt. Scott playground will be
built among the trees.
The street
lights on various corners near the
playground only serve to accentuate
the darkness among the trees. Our
boys and girls in this district are
just as priceless and valuable and
worth taking care of as those in any
other district. And a black hole,
such as we had last year and the
year before, is not conducive to good
morals and good examples.
Let us
insist on good lighting or good pol
icing, and if we can’t obtain either,
for pity’s sake return the property
to private ownership and as far as
we can eliminate the chances for im
morality in our district A combined
effort of earnest, thoughtful parents
and of organizations will bring the
desired result.
At (he meeting of the Mt. Scott
Imptovewiertt Chib at Arleta Tuesday
evening Mr. Pier was unable to ap
pear as scheduled. Mr. Hooper, his
assistant, spoke in his place. He told
the people of the purchase of three
blocks between 72nd and 74th streets
and 56th avenue and said they were
planning to buy three more blocks in
the same vicinity.
The subject ' of supervision was
discussed. It was suggested that a
matron be appointed to assist the
regular park supervisor. Mr. Cooper
stated that it is hard to obtain help
other than the kind they have, that
is, college students. It was suo-eat-
ed that the park be lighted, but Mr.
Cooper informed them that play
grounds were never lighted, only the
parks. There are so many parks be
ing equipped and the Rose Festival
is taking so much time for prepara
tion that he could not promise any
definite action soon. The fact that
the district had united and knew
what it wanted and had made a defi
nite request for it would, in his opin
ion, go far toward obtaining for us
our desired objects. The subject
will be further discussed at the June
meeting of the Mt Scott Improve
ment Club.
