What September looks like on F Road

Are you prepared? September is National Preparedness Month.

All Nebraska families should have disaster kits. "The state's

local emergency managers and NEMA have plans to address a

wide range of natural and man-made disasters, but individuals

and families must be prepared to assume a role in personal health

and safety emergency preparedness," said NEMA assistant

director Al Berndt. "Plans should include where to meet if a home

is destroyed and include a list of important information,

including medical information, for every family member. Everyone

needs to be prepared to shelter in place for a minimum of three

days." For more information and a list of items to keep on hand,

go to www.nema.nebraska.gov Tornadoes, floods, and fires can

happen at any time. The best time to plan and assemble a kit

is right now.

Friday, 9-5-1913, The Otoe Union:

The Farmer's Elevator reported $47,000 worth of business the

previous month. E.S. Carper was appointed to the Village

Board, filling the vacancy created by L.D. Finigan's death. The

elevator, coal sheds, and implement dealer at Palmyra were

totally destroyed by fire; the investigators believed the most

likely cause was young men smoking under the elevator.

Greenblatt & Seay proudly announce the Seventeenth ANNUAL SCHOOLHOUSE FIDDLING BEE. This historical, hysterical event will take place on Sunday, October 13, at 2:30 PM, downstairs in the Old Avoca, Nebraska Schoolhouse. In the Open Division, fiddlers will play a hoedown, a waltz, and a tune of choice. There will also be other divisions of competition available for the adventurous fiddlers, including a Singing Fiddler's Contest, a Twin Fiddler's Contest, a Fee-Fi-Faux Fiddler's Contest (fiddle tunes played on any instrument other than a fiddle), and a Hocus-Pocus Contest (cross-tuning, sound effects, dancing, etc.), which will give fiddlers an opportunity to play tunes that are usually not allowed in any other contest. Contestants can register on line (http://www.greenblattandseay.com/schoolhouse_fiddling_bee_preregistration.shtml). Admission is $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for students, and $1.00 for children. Fiddlers and their back-ups are admitted for free. The contest will be followed by a light snack and an acoustic jam session.
