Leck of room for all his departments was the reason for Mr. Pray's decision to discontinue his clothing line, which included clothes of the Alfred Benjamin and other good makes. Pray will con- tinue Bfs ‘hat and men's furnishings de- partments at his present location. The stock bought by Berg is a large and up-to-date one, and its sale at deeply cut prices, beginning Saturday, is one of the lmportant merchandizing events of the season, according to both firms in- terested.

He asserted that his tali was nonpariisan, but he sneered at the administration for its attitude In the Vera Cruz affair, and declared that the Americans withdrew their army because Carranza gave them twenty-four hours |stro. to do 80, Agaln asserting that his talk was non- partisan, he stuck a thorn into the ap- pointment of the five men for the federal trade commission. “I suppose we should have the rules of base ball revised,” he said, “by a committee chosen through the direct primary. We would get & com- mittee that never saw the game. Now you have five men appointed to have absolute charge of the busimess of the country, and not one of them ever played the game.” STEREOPTICON SLIDES PRESENTED TO LIBRARY A collection of 3,00 stereopticon sildes of travel in America and abroad has been presented to the Omaha public library by Miss Janet Monro Wallace, whose father, the late Willam Wallace, made thé siides #nd wanted the library to have them after his death.

Free Money Orders for Prisoners of War It looks now as though the United States government is becoming very in- timately connected with the Huropean war, for an order has just been received by the local postoffice from Third As sistant Postmaster General Dockery in- stituting free money orders for prison- ers of war in Europe. Anyone wishing | to send money to & person now held as | & prisoner of war can send It without payment of any fee whatsoever, The order calls attention to the fact that the Hague convention, which was subscribed to by the United States and by all the Buropesn nations now in gon-~ fliet, contained s provision that money |orders drawn in favor of or remitted by prisoners of war shall be exempted from any charge for fee or commission. Why this provision was not put into meonths after the war the order does not say.

You're not “lhd to fit"——not at this in ¢ "o " Vaxe cation, in the assembly room on the fifth floor of the city hall, yielded several pleasantries as well as being of practical intérest to those present, It was decided that at the next session the principals shall occupy the platform and the sphool directors wjll be the audience. At this meeting A. O. Wakeley of the board chose to sit with the principais rather than with his assoclates. When W. A. Foster spoke, he facetlously in- quired as to the identity of the gentle- man clad in the light sult and asked what school he was principal of. Con. tinuing in his happy vein, Mr. Foster de- clared that there scems to be a need for making the elementary school curriou- lum of more practical value For in- stance, he noted that many of the boys do not seem to know who Jess Willard is. Growing serious, Mr. Foster added that he devotes most of his attention to the grade schools, because statistios show that two-thirds of those entering the lower public schools never go to high #chools at all; therefore, the grade school means much to a great majority of the attendants. i Thomas A. Fry said he felt like a cer- fain colored man in the south, who, upon being asked to change a $10 bill, replied that he was unable to grant the favor, but thanked the stranger for his compii- ment.
