Albright Lad Finds “Seeing the World” Hard Proposition Two months of sleeping in box cars, doorways and barns and pro- viding his own meals with the few pennies he could earn selling news- papers, was enough to cure 13-year- old Henry Swodeck, 1521 Drexel ave- nue, Albright, of his desire to see the world. He ran away from home two months ago and the police and juve- nile authorities had been seeking him cver since. His parents had been frantic with grief since their son’s disappearance. When he was brought into juvenile court before Judge Leslie, Henry said that he would be eager to stay at home after this. “I didn't have a square meal all the time I was away,” he said.

Edward Emily ELKS HOLD THEIR | EXERCISES IN PARK] General Harries the Orator, and in | His Address He Pays Tribute to the American Flag. DECLARES FOR PREPAREDNESS | General George H.

The Elks' division. one of the finest divisions of the big Flag day parade, instead of disbanding at Sixteenth and Leavenworth streets, as the rest! of the divisions did, wmaintained ! formation and moved to Hanscom park, where the exercises were held General Harries, speaker of the | day, reviewed the success of the aft-| ernoon parade, of which he was grand marshal, and spoke of what this pa-| rade meant to Omaha and the coun | try. “Do we fully realize,” he asked, | “what this day of Omaha demonstra- tion means throughout the country “It is a voice crymg in what so lately the geographical wildernes. —the supposed wilderness of placid unconcern. ‘This flag is our flag, let no man dare say otherwise.,'" Reviewing the history of the flag briefly, and commenting on some of | President Wilson's recent remarks, the general continued in part: “The things we must do to extend | and to make effective this rebirth of individual interest in the common weal are many. Even a hastily com- piled catalogue of our shortcomings would be an appalling document. An| inventory of the necessary men, money and material makes startling revelation of our carelessness. But One Keynote. “As to the seriousness of the topic there is little real difference of opin- ion. Recognizing the public concern our political elements are declaring themselves in tones which may ul- s timately harmonize. There is but one keynote, and it will be for the people of this land to determine which of the vocalists sings true. Meanwhile let us have the essential thing—preparedness of the spirit. Without that the most carefully framed plans and the most extrava- gant of preparations will not avail.” Stenger May Come as Superintendent of Union Pacific A rumor has reached Union Pacific headquarters from St. Joseph to the effect that Ernest Stenger, general manager of the St. lloe & Grand Is- land, one of the auxilliary lines of the Union Pacific, may become general superintendent of the Overland sys- tem, with headquarters in Omaha. At hecdquarters here the rumor is regarded merely as a rumor. There are no officials in town who have authority to speak, all of them being out on the main line, or in the east. The appointment of a general man- ager would come within the scope of the authority of President Calvin, who assumes his official duty July 1, and who is now in Salt Lake City. When General Manager Jz{fcrs was promoted from general superinten- dent, it was intimated that the last named office would remain unfilled, but there now seems to be an under- current of opinion that the idea has been abandoned and that the posi- tion of general superintendent may | be continued. At the present time the office force of the general super- intendent is being held intact, and Mr. Jeffery officially is performing the duties of both general manager and general superintendent. PICKPOCKETS BUSILY PLY TRADE DURING THE PARADE During the hours of Wednesday afternoon that the Flag day parade was engaging the attention of the populace thicves were busily plying their trade. C.
