Former Omaha Woman Once Pelted Stones At President Wilson Mary Hawes Glover, former Oma- ha clubwoman, now living in New York City, recalls childhood mem- ories of President Wilson in a letter to Mrs. C. W. Hayes, leader of the social science department, Omaha Woman's_ club, with which depart- ment Mrs. Glover .was once affiliated. “I went to school with Woodrow cleven, Little did I know that when 1 threw stones at long, lanky Tommy Wilson that 1 was pelting the future president of the United States. His only brother, Joseph Wilson, played the violin the night my class gradu- ated. The father, Rev. Joseph Wil- son, was for many ycars pastor of our First Presbyterian church in Wil- mington. My father was an intimate friend and came very near leaving the Methodist church, so strongly was he impressed with Dr. Wilson.” Mrs. Glover mentions that attend- ing the same school was Mary Leily Kenan, widow of Henry Flagler, the multimillionaire. Mrs. Flagler mar- ried Bob Worth Bingham just a few days ago. Ad Man Must Be " Analysist as Well As a Copy Writer Analysis is one of the most im- portant factors for the advertising man or salesman in getting out the proper information about his product to the potential customers, according to an address made by W. R. Evans of the Bankers' Realty Investment company before sthe Omaha Ad club at a round table meeting at the Com- mercial club ;ast night, “Analysis of the Article” was the subject upon which he had prepared his paper. He showed that no great advertjsing campaign can be a suc- cess unless the adwertising man has studied the product and its manufac- ture long and hard and has analyzed it carefully, Kountze Mefi&fal Pastor Gets Raiset Members of Kountze Memorial Lu- theran church, at the fifty-eighth an- nual congregational meeting last night bowled over in surprise the Rev. Oli- ver D. Baltzly and Associate Paster (. F. Koch, when they presented each with a raise in salary of $400 and $300, respectively. In anouncing the increase, high tribute was paid both Rev. Mr. Baltz- ly and the Rev. Mr. Koch. According to the report of Treas- urer_ George Gilespie, $4,200 was ex- pended” for charity during the fiscal vear. Contributions to the church treasury amounted to $iZ,597. New officers elected were as follows: El- der, William Sievers; deacons, L. H. Robinson, C. O. Larmon, Robert L. Young, George H. Gilespis, Glenn W. Smythe, Elmer Sandberg, H. P. Jen- sen, A, B. Detweiler and W. D. Mor- ton Motor Ears Meet Head-0n | While Moving Swiftly Results somewhat similar to those of an irresistable force striking an immovable object were achieved last night when C. C. Edgely, contractor, living at the Hotel Harney, driving an auto without lights at Sixteenth and Clark, butted radiators with Pat Connors, chauffeur, who was driving in an opposite direction. A complaint of reckless driving and intoxication was lodged against Connors. Edgely was arrested for driving at night without lights. ! Both machines were traveling at a high rate of speed when they met, witnesses said. Found a Quick Cure for croup. When a child has croup no fime should be lost, and the remedy that will givei the quickest relief and is pleasant and safe to take is the most desirable. Mrs. S. Cartwright, Col-| lingsvilles 111, says: “When my child was small re was subject to croup. [ found that Chamberain”s Cough Remedy gave the quickest relief and that l:e never objected to taking it.” —Advertiscment. i \ THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNLUDAY, __combibi o 1916. 7 Once More—Perhaps the Last Time HIS MASTERS VOICE wiTH APoLeaES MONEY SHARPS IRK THE WELFARE BOARD Justice Courts and Collection Agencies Are Listed as Un- mitigated Social Evils. ‘ SOME tem of dispensing so-called justice | and the methods of collection agen- cies in wringing cash from poor peo-| ple, then the Welfare Board would/ not like tg meet them. “Why, only last week,” said Attor- ney J. P. Palmer, at a meeting of the Welfare Board last night, “a| woman went to a South Side justice. | Now nearly everyone knows that the | cost of starting a case is only about $2.40 or $2.50. This particular gent- leman told her that it would cost her | $3.50 and a goo:2. The womar, who is a native of Poland, brought him the money and the goose.” “Yes,” said T. J. McGuire, of the Board’s legal aid department, “only | today a case came to eur notice whereby a woman’s original bill for $10 had grown to $18 before a col. lection agency got through with it.” These were only isolated case cited from a legion of instances. At- torneys Palmer and W. C. azer, representing the Barristers’ club heard a long tale of woe as they con” ferred with the board methbers about drafting new laws to remedy the glaring defects. I Palmer expressed the opinion that | the establishment of the municipal | court in Omaha, which automatically | reduces the number of justices to one, | would help greatly in the elimination‘ of many of the evils perpetrated by the justices. The board agreed wilh‘ him. ' | But how to prevent by law the mal- | feasance of the collection agencies, | some credit houses'and kindred evils, | is a problem which the Barristers’| club and the Welfare Bgard will try to work ovt in time to submit practi-| cable suggestions to the state legisla- | ture. serlously over the question of motherhood—it used to mean such agony and sacrifice, that one could easily overlook the pleagure and honor of children in the home—but ‘“Mother's Friend” has changed the views of thousands of women from that of distress to a pleasant anticipation of the happiness of being a mother.
