LITILE LAD HANGS IN WINDOW BY NECK Is Caught by Falling Window, But is Rescued After Losing Consciousness. HE IS RUSHED TO HOSPITAL Frantically clutching the air with his hands, while his little head was firmly wedged between a window and its base, Albert Wilson, 3-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Wilson, Forty-third and O streets, South Side slowly lapsed into unconsciousness yesterday shortly after 10 o'clock. While playing with his little sister in the window sill, the window sash sud denly lowered catching his neck in its ?'all directly at the base of the chin, The cries of the strangled child at tracted Mrs, Gladys Wells, next door neighbor, who rushed to the scene and held the lower part of the body on a level with the head until other aid came and the window was raised A vain attemnpt was made to call a doctor but none proved available, The olice were called and Chauffeur Joe Baughman rushed out in the emerg- ency car with Dr. J. J. Humpal, The latter administered medicine t& lessen the pain and ordered the child to the South Side hospital Mrs. Wilson, mother of the child, was working in a field a few hundred yards away. She was a witness to the desperate circumstances of her child and immediately came to its aid, At the hospital Dr, A. A. Fricke as- sumed responsibility of the case, An X-ray examination will be taken, Wilson is a packing house workman, Work Continues on Practically All Big Jobs in the City Building activities continue yes- terday on the various big jobs in the city, with the building laborers at work, and the strike apparently pretty much of a thing of the past. Work is to begin again on the Uni- versity of Nebraska State hospital at Forty-second and Dewe avenue Monday. V. Ray Gould 1s the con- tractor on this job, which is practic- ally the only one on which work has not been resumed, The building laborers have aban- doned their headquarters at Wash- ingten hall, where they held frequent meetings during the strike The bricklayers and other build- ing tradesmen are said to be largely responsible for the men returning to work, as the tradesmen began to in- sist they had been idle long enough Carpenters, during the last week, bricklayers and others, were often heard to deplore the fact that they were being kept out of work through strike when they themselves were making no demands 4nd were willing to work. It is said these allied build ing tradesmen brought pressure to bear on the laborers to get them to go back to work last Monday, even though not all of their demands had been met. Council Declares Flag Day Shall Be Official Holiday By resolution the city council de- clared June 14, Flag day, an official holiday and appointed Commissioner Jardine as marshal of the city em- ployes who are expected to join the parade. Of a total of 1,500 city employes the mayor said he expected not less than 1,200 in this demonstration. He has requested all city employes to par- ticipate.

Reeves Asserts Commissioners Are Guilty of Discrimination in Union Edict. APPEALS TO DISTRICT COURT I'hat the city commissioners are guilty of gross discrimination is the charge made in a suit filed in district court by Ned S. Reeves, member of a nonunion brass band, against the city of Omaha and the seven commis sioners, in protest against the lution recently passed which gives union bands the exclusive privilege of playing during the summer Reeves says there are 160 nonunion players who are skilled musicians, and these are taxpayers and citizens ‘of Omaha, He demands a court order preventing the city commissioners from keeping these citizens and him elf from employment in the city parks “The $3,000 fund from which the bands are paid is the people's money Everybody in Omaha is not a mem ber of a union, The city commission- ers have no right to discriminate,” de- clared Reeves The resolution passed is in the form of an order from the commission to the park superintendent, preventing | the employment of any but union bands for public concerts in the city parks reso “CHIP” LEE BOUND OVER FOR ASSAULTING OFFICER “('hi‘p" Lee, who, it is charged, as- saulted Detective Kennelly when the latter arrested him, was arraigned in police court Tuesday morning, and bound over to the district court with bonds fixed at $750.

After that, $1I to $19 more NEARING THE END If there had been no war ~if the ghortage in dyes, drugs, chemicals and hundreds of other things which it occasioned had not sent prices soaring to the skies ; ~if there had not been the same serious inerease in the price of paper, leather, printing ink (and an actual famine of some sorts of binding materials) ; ~—if the publishers of the Britannica had not suddenly been confronted with the problem not only of heavily increased costs, but also of a scarcity in India paper and of binding leathert, so that they had to-notify us that our present contract with them could not be renewed, we might have gone sent on selling the new *Handy Volume” Issue of the Britannica at the low prices for a long while, as we had intended. This is impossible. In spite arranged for (which made it possible for us to sell the complete new unabridged Eleventh Edition of the Britannica, in a small-page form, at one-third the price of the larger-page Cambridge University issue) the issue has been taken so rapidly that oniy a small number of sets now remain and we cannot secure any more at anything like present prices. For such further sets as we shall be able to obtain we shall have to in. crease the price by $11 per set for the cheaper bindings to $19 per set for the more expersive bindings (and there is no telling how long even these prices can be main- tained). We wish to give the public full warning. More than 200,000 persons have written us to ask for our large illustruted 130-page descriptive book about the Encyclopaedia Britannica and the new “Handy Volume” Issue. This means that a tremendous number will come rushingin at the last minute. We send the entire 20 volumes upon the payment of a single dollar. Then you have three weeks with the books in your own (8ee our home to make up your mind they are just what you want. unconditional guarantee,) But only ten days remain—ten working days.

This is the record of the Encyclopaedia Britannica. From the days of 8ir Walter Scott, of Lord Jeffrey and Thomas Young, it has been counted an honor to be invited to write Tor this distinguished work, and the most eminent men of each successive period have written its articles, ~—not merely the most distinguished minds of English-speaking peoples, in Great Britain, in America, but many of the foremost authorities of other nations as well. Far back the famous Arago and Biot, two of the most eminent of French- men of science, set the fashion, and since that time there have con- tributions from the distinguished men of almost every nation in —to the new Eleventh Edition contribute many of the foremost minds of Holland, like Lorentz, Van Der Waals and van't Hoff; of France, Babelon, Bémont, Esmein, Luchaire ; of Italy, like Villari; of Sweden, Nansen ; of Japan, like lfl\mchl; of huslll. e Prince Kropotkin on throughout the list. Yet, in ’fi"‘ of all this high scholarship, in spite of its unquestioned authority, the Encyclopaedia Britannica is an eminently practical and useful book full of interest and unexpected charm, and expressly designed to meet the needs of busy men and women of tothy. —And this is the work which you can now obtain for the first time ~the new edition, absolutely complete, not one of its 30,000 changed by a line, at & opull;};rlce (only one-third that ior the ll(n'rger page Camb dge University issue of identically the same worl —the complete work sent you upon th:d?:yment of a single dollar, After tlhs:_tt easy monthly payments, according to the style of binding you select.
