What is a mnemonic marvel? a dyocaet riacon ta hedon ? What is dysapoeatastasis? These terms are not heard during the everyday conversation of the average person, but one might hear them if he attended a luncheon of the group of "immortals" who park their feet under a round table at the Omaha Athletic club during the hour of noontide. This little academy of altruists peregrinate over to the club when the whistle sounds the time for mid day surcease. They have no written code, nor is any script required other than that which is indicated on the meal c hecks which are issued by Bob, the genial servitor who graces the tablo with comforts. Their code is "iex non scripta," tiie unwritten law, as against "lex scripta." the written law, which most • of them encounter during the day s work. And. thus, tile question obtrudes it-! self, "What is a mnemonic marvel?" an-1 where may it he found. Is It one of those prehistoric creatures j that roamed tics-- regions long be fore t: e footfalls of civilization begun to animate the hills and dales?

Vork, '.Neb., May 24 1-toys in York county think they have found a "get rich-quick" scheme to be worked dur ing vacation since the county treasur er announced there Is a bounty of 10 cents on each gopher distilled during the reign of King Tut? It is neither. It may be found at the round table in tho Athletic club. His name is Ben S. Baker, otherwise known as "The Judge," scant of hirsute embellishment and ready of wit. Judge’s Magic Memory. The term has to do with a person who has an extraordinary memory. That describes Judge Baker of the round table. If any of his luncheon legionnaireb wish to recall some fact or figure, they turn to the judge who. like a necromancer of old. brings forth the required bit of Information with a magic gesture. Ilis system Is that of the association of ideas, not ex actly new, but eternally effective. "Where were you on September 22, 1 SOS?" he w-ns asked. Immediately be began to figure that In 1898 Oma ha saw its first automobile, which v.i s at the Transtnississippi exposi tion. That was the year In which Charley Gardner fell out of a tree while picking apples. Therefore, he instinctively replies that he was at the Transmiijslssippl exposition on the date mentioned. That was the day on which he smoked his first Turkish cigaret. And then we have the question of "\\ hat is a dyocaelriacontahedon?" It Is a solid bounded by 82 faces, not to b8 found at the round table, the judge asseverated with vehemence. And what Is "dysapocdtaetasls?" It is a condition of unrest, not to be found at the round table. This lit tle organization of luncheoneers re lax while they relish. Evolution Is Slow. Having thus disposed of the mnemonic marvel, the dyocaetrlacon tahedon, and dysapocatastaala, the next question has to do with the round table as an Institution. This croup of immortals had Its genesis when the Athletlo club was opened. It started with a few congenial souls ;ind has grown to 10 to 14 at the noon day food and fun festival. The program of activities and pro cedure Is quite informal. One might hear the topics run from barium dioxide to holding a tag day for a new Trnlon depot for Omaha. They discuss pulchltrude, politics, psychics, piscatology, pictures, perils of pro pinquity and pinochles When there Is a conversation calm. Jim Rait broadcasts a bit from Shake speare, his favorite being; "Sleep, that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care, The death of each day's life, sore labor's bath; Balm of hurt minds, great nature* second course— Chief nourlsher In life's feast." One of the Items of unfinished busi ness before the round table Is the moot question of whether the egg or the chicken waa created flrgt. This remains controversial, but .Her man Aye. whose home town Is Tekamah, where the crack horseshoe pitchers come from, has an abiding faith that the question will be solved. He expects to file a brief on the subject. "Jest of Honor.” "Is It Justiciable?" asked Frank Howell, referring to the egg and the chicken. Fred Wright averred that there Is nothing In nomology on the subject. Arthur Mullen suggested that he might find It In Jurisprudence. E. C. Page Is the "jest of honor" of this group. He preaches tile gospel of the smile. He says that a laugh is the sunshine of the soul and that promoters of laughter aro public P.T" f--tors. He holds to the belief that m long a* a man can laugh he in sate. He secs magic in a smile, health In a laugh. He quoted Ella Wheeler Wilcox: "Smile a little, smile a little, As you go along. Not alone when life Is pleasant, But when things go wrong." 9 Swedish Mission Nurses Graduate j I here nine nurse* were graduated Thursday evening from the Swedish Mission hospital nurse*' training school.

Thrills Furnished in Erection of Meridian Highway Bridge at Yankton Ft. Helena, Neb.. May 24.—Con epete Is being poured for the big nlers of the Nebraska approach to the Meridian highway bridge just north of here, the cement for which was unloaded at Yankton, S. T)., and taken across the river to the No hraska side. When the pouring is completed on this side the concrete outfit will he removed to the Dakota side to pour concrete for the first 15 feet of abutment there. In order to do the pouring It wras necessary to erect a high tower by means of which the cement is hoisted and emp tied Into the forms. The election of the Meridian bridge has furnished some thrills and in foresting stories, one of wrhleli was a wedding romance when *om# flowers were delivered to the bride from Yankton by being carried across the bridge and handed to the bridegroom who made hts way from the Me la-aska side before the bridge reached the Nebraska shore. Uecently. Miss Christina Nelson, accompanied by one of the steel work ere, climbed to the very top of the l.ir; sleel lift tower, about ISO feet above the surface of the river. She climbed up on the top deck of the bridge and then walked to the tower, which she climbed easily. Miss Neb son walked over the steel girders of the bridge, venturing anywhere that her more experienced guide dared to go. North Platte Woman Heads P. K. () Sisterhood of Stale St. Paul. Neb..

The Canadian government will close its immigration office in Omaha on May 31. it was announced today by W. V. Bennett, who has been agent here for the Canadian immi gration department for more than 30 years. A\ itii the closing of the office Mr. Bennett will be retired. In point of service, he is the oldest agent of the Canadian government in this coun try, and during the long period of Ills service, he has. through the Omaha office, assisted 46,788 persons In finding new homes In Canada. The Canadian immigration office was opened here in 1896, with Mr, Bennett In charge. That year 16 per sons were sent to Canada through the efforts of the office. The number of homeseekers, whom Mr. Bennett Was instrumental in locating in Can ada. increased rapidly each year un til 1912 when 4 483 persons were sent to the northern country. At the beginning of the war there 'was a marked decline in the number |of persons leaving the states for Can ada. The decline has continued to be more pronounced, until in 1923 only 245 persons from the territory in charge of the Omaha office settled in Canada. War inflation and a resulting de flvon, causing a money s'rlngency in the western Canadian provinces and consequent economic depression similar to that of the middle west of the United States, is a factor in smaller number of prospective Can adian settlers handled of late years by the Omaha office, in the opinion of Mr. Bennett. In all, 35 per cent of the Canadian government offices are being closed in the United States. State* Included in the territory of the Omaha offlc* were Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and Arizona. Kansas City and Des Moines office* will be expected to care for the territory of the Omaha office. A new system, which will place four men equipped with auto mobiles in this territory to call on prospective immigrants, will be In augurated. Mr. Bennett will remain In Omaha and continue to deal In Canadian lands, he says; and is expecting an appointment which will authorize him to act as agent for Canadian natlonaf 1 lands.
