COFFEE, Suit! «»», St. JsmM Hot.l Bldg., D.v.nport, lews Omaha Girl in Operating Chair Shows How Violet Ray Is Used to Reduce Criminal Tendencies in Convicts Hair for Raid and Tan for Bathing Girl Also Possible. Possibility of eradicating criminal tendencies through ultra violet ray treatments. Is interesting Omaha authorities, who have been informed that eastern prisons use the ray on prisoners with real results. The ray eliminates diseased condi tions of the gums, which, it is assert ed, are frequently responsible for crime and suicide. Applications nre now administered with elaborate accessories, which en able the rays to be either air or water cooled. 1'Urn-violet therapy is now being used successfully by doctors In stopping the progress of tuberculosis and in curing scores of other serious conditions, according to officials of the Seiler Surgical company of Omaha. The ray also furnishes a ray of hope for lhe bald. Dermatologists are applying it on shiny scalps and hair sometimes appears, 'tis said. The girl who would gain a becoming tan with out the bother of going to the beach also finds the ray a quirk means to an end. _ /a GARDEN FLATS IN GOTHAM, PLAN New York. Dec. C,.—John 13.

One woman who pays $70 a month for an apartment is condescending enough to offer one room of her place for $50 a month. Hotel and apartment house owners put the “gyp" on strong when con gress convenes. Between sessions the apartment business is a dull affair. Congressman Willis G. Sears ar rived in Washington for the opening session sporting a new hat and over coat. It is hinted around the Con gress Hall hotel, where the judge lives, that some Nebraskan paid an election bet. j ne nuniDer deaths in the ranks of the house and senate were taken up mostly in recall •lark Dee. lng the members who had died and offering resolutions for special memorial services. A prominent Washington physician says the death rate among congressmen is higher than any other class. Traffic direction in Omaha Is per fect, compared with Indianapolis, Bal timore nnd Washington. Jn Indian apolis It's everyone for himself. In Baltimore there are plenty of cops at every turn but not enough observ ance* of the traffic rules by the drivers. At one end of one of the most dangerous curves in the white pole road there is nn advertisement for an undertaking Arm nnd nt the other there Is a huge cemetery. Kighty thousand persons shivered through the annual Army-Navy game at Baltimore last week. Debs and subtle bs, society folks, to whom this annual grid classic Is duck soup; the high hat squad and the frails In furs suffered for the sake of being aide to say they were present and cheered for the ‘ Ahrn.v'’ or the "Nelvy.'* The t'ornhuekers could have de feated either team hands down and without a tenth as much fuss as Baltimore put on. Baltimore is a town of more than 500,000 but the ad ditional 80,000 in the city that day stood this staid old city on its ear. A Cornhusker notices the absence of the good old letter "H* front con versation in the east and the pres ence of the broad "a" of Harvard. How wonderful it is to have someone "breeze** into this office from the west and hear him roll out his "r New comers to Washington attempt to ape the "ah" of the native, but are soon found out. One little ntiss from Ne braska who has been here for a short time "gets away" with it. But now' and then nn *TM will ripple out and proc laim her as being from the west. Washington boasts of f»9 holes of public golf. Omaha, less than half as large, has almost as many "muny" golf courses. Humor has It that there will not be an extra session of congress imme diately after March 4. The "dope" is now that President Coolldge will not call an extra session until June, after the end of the fiscal year. The opening dav of congress re minds one of school clays when we went around and greeted ell the old "kids" and sized up the new ones. Congressmen and senators can be Just as boisterous as school boys, but heaven help the poor taxpayer in the gallery if he lets out a "peep.*9 One time I attempted to applaud a par ticularly worthy address by a con gressman and almost got the hum’s rush out of the gallery by one of our national pensioners. I felt sorry for the clerk attempt ing to call the roll of the house at the first session. He had to shout over the confusion being made by the law'makers, who were greeting each other as though tlwy had been apart for years Instead of weeks. The Congressional Record will soon he In the mall and the world will be ahio to keep track of Mr. Blanton of Texas, who got In the Record last session through various methods, speeches nnd objections, about 10 limes more limn other members. In Washington, paper money Is used almost entirely. A hard dollar la in scarce as roses In December In Nebraska yards. Pictures of Omaha and Nebraska, recently presented to < ’ongresainan Hears, will soon grace the walla of the congressman’s office. Tills will be the only office in the Nebraska delegation that has anything show-log the wealth and magnificence of the Cnnhusker state. These pictures sre the gift of the Omaha Kiwanls club. Wa.vland Magee, owner of Hummer Hill farm near Benlngfon. has •hipped to Congressman Bears sev I eral samples of Nebraska corn grown on his farm. They compare favorably with the far famed product of a neighboring state ami show the world that corn grows tall In Nebraska as well as across the "Big Muddy."

Catholic Bishop Who Has Preached for Half Century In Mission Fields Around Mt. Everest Visits In Omaha Enjoying a real, snowy winter for ♦he first time In more than 30 years. Bishop Louis Van Hoeck, S. J., of Patna District, India, will arrive in Omaha Saturday, December 13. The prelate is in this country on a vaca tion from his duties in India. He will speak at St. John church. Twenty-fifth and California streets. •:t all the masses Sunday, lie will tell of mission conditions there and the hearing the political situation has fin foreign missionaries. Bishop Van Hoeck is a Belgian by birth and has spent most of his 54 years in the mission fields of India. When a youth he had a desire to go to Africa as a missionary hut he "as persuaded hv his superior to choose India. He went there to finish hi« studies. T?e taught as a scholastic in the Jesuit college at Calcutta. After the completion of his theo logy and tertianship he was put into the mission field in Bengali where CGrt Belgian Jesuits are now working. Bess than 20 years had passed since the Belgian. Rev. Constantine Liev <ms, P. J.. had been making whole sale conversions in this mission. In seven years, according to his reports, lie made 100,000 converts, but h* was forced to return to Belgium, where he died soon after. Omaha Aids In Work. Father Van Hoeck was assigned to >nre for some of the converts of Father Llevens. In 1010 the terri i >rv comprising all of the indepen dent monarchy of Nepal, and part of the province of Beh ir Orissa, a sec tion formerly served by the Austrian Capuchins, was entrusted to the Missouri province of the Jesuit order, in which Omaha is located. At Sham baganur, where the novitiate of the Toulouse Jesuit privlnce is located. Toulouse Jesuit province i« located, five novices who are studying for the priesthood and one who has entered as a lay brother. The American priest* In thl* mis sion are Revs. Peter Sontag, Man kato; Aloyslus Petit. St. Marys Kan.; Bernard Sullivan, Denver; William Kline, Milwaukee; .John Killian. Toledo: Patrick Troy, St. Marks, and Henry Milet, Detroit. "This mission," said Rev. John McCormick, president of Creighton university, at whose Invitation the Indian prelate Is visiting Omaha, "has only 5,000 Catholics. Most of the Protestants in this area are Baptists and Methodists. The total pagan population Is about 28,000.000, of which the great majority Is Hindu In religion, though there are some 4,000,000 Mohamedans. "Nearly 5.000,000 people of this mission live In the kingdom of Nepal, which lies in the midst of the Himalayas, just * east of Mount Kverest. This land has been absolu tely closed to fnretgneis and mission aries. Capuchins built a number of cl.urrhes th»re In the 18th century, but there Is not a vestige of Christ ianity left In that land now.” "When the new* came that Amer ica had taken over this field, old missionaries said that Nepal's hour had come," wrotrf Bishop Van Hoeck to Father McCormick. "While all priests, brothers, nuns W-O-O-D Fireplace, Furnace Cut to Lengths 12, 16, 24 Phone AT 2700 A.lc for Our Coal Chart Sunderland Bros.Co. and laymen, who can help in the conversion nf India are welcome." said Father McCormick.” Still we must depend on the. Missouri province for Jesuit missionaries. "Many of these have volunteered I for Indian service, but the need of men In American colleges Is too press ing to allow an adequate number to go. One or two priests are generally sent annually now. Men are the greatest need of the Indian mi»> alons now, but there la certainly a need of money also.” ILLINOIS CHIEF EXECUTIVE HURT Kankakee.
