Irvin s' rsier, attorney for the ■--' — petitioners, believes that the proposed ordinance should be passed. "Such a law has been upheld in the courts,’’ he said.

The conference has been con ducted by Percy Powell, sales man ager; Charles Betts, advertising man ager, and Ben Warren, general man ager. Wyoming, Nebraska, South Dakota and Iowa were represented. “Business has been very satisfac tory with us during the last year,” snvs Charles Belts in an inerview, "but from 4II Indications we will make a steady, substantial gain dur ing the next 12 months." Ben Warren declared: “We believe that there Is more business In the Omaha territory than any other ter ritory on earth and we are directing our plans accordingly. We are mak ing no other plans on expanding the territorial limits of this company over last year but we are making exten sive plans on covering the Omaha ter ritory more thoroughly." This opinion Is not an Isolated judg ment. The Omaha Bee will call at tention to others from time to time. Everywhere there Is the spirit of ad vanee. When the slogan of The Omaha Bee—Greater Nebraska, Straight Ahead—was called to the attention of an Omaha business man, he laugh ingly replied; "I’ve found that the shortest distance between two points is a bee-line.

When Frederick Lnngenbuck, 10, told his bride of three months, Made line. IS. that he was going to Alii ance, Neb., with his mother, and that after Saturday night she would have no home, the girl-wife appealed to the county attorney’s office. Saturday morning Deputy founty Attorney Gordon Nicholson Issued a complaint for Langenbark, charging him with nonsupport. Madeline, whose maiden name was Robinson, married Dangenback three months ago against the wishes of her parents, she told Nicholson. Her par ents live at 2S16 Decatur street, she said. Since her marriage the young wife has been living with her husband and his mother at *118 Davenport street. She blames the loss of her husband’s affection upon her mother-in-law. “He has grown cold and Indiffer ent,” she declared. Wife Worked in Laundry. Langenbadk has been out of work since his marriage, but his child-wife has been employed by the Omaha Flat Work laundry. Nicholson issued the complaint in an effort to detain Langenbaejt from moving to Alliance Saturday night with his mother. “If necessary we will bring him back from Alliance,’’ he said. Dangenback is a friend of Ray Bacon, 27, actor and piano player, Whose wife, Eva, 18, sought a com plaint for nonsupport Friday. Three-Day Courtship. “I do not know whether his treat ment with me has been influenced by what he has seen Mr. Bacon get away with or not.” declare* Mrs. Langenback. Eva Bacon said Friday that she met her husband December 17 in a local movie house and married him aftei- three days' courtship. Her home Is in Wisconsin and she was employed as a waitress in Omaha. She asked the arrevt of her hus band, claiming that she spent the day before Chrlstains without food and that he has failed to provide for her. A divorce Is impossible at present ' because Mrs. Bacon has not been In Omaha long enough to establish ! residence. High Prices for Horses. Special Dlipatch to The Omaha Ilf*.

Bobbed Hair Craze Started With Grandmothers of 1924 Flappers There is nothing new in this craze for bobbed hair, declares L. M. Cooper, veteran barber of Los Ange les, who formerly worked In Omaha. Cooper, In an interview In his shop on the wre9tern coast, says that years ago when he was* a barber in the Merchants hotel In Omaha, he cut the hair of many women who are now grandmothers and perhaps great grandmothers in Nebraska. During the pioneer days of Omaha when William F. Cody (Buffalo Bill) was one of his customers In the bar ber shop here, Cooper learned the art, of bobbing women’s hair, lie tells how amused lie was when the pres ent day barbers first started to clip France W ants Slow Payment J Ambassador Herrick Discusses Debt Settlement With Fi nance Minister Clernentl. By Associated Prtn, Paris, Jan. S.—Pressed' from all sides for further Information as to the step taken by Finance Minister Clementel to open up Informal ex changes of views an the fundipg of the French debt, Arperican Ambassa dor Herrick today said that he had not yet forwarded to Washington the memorandum which the minister of finance had handed him. He said he had been engaged in the most in formal and personal discussions with various officials of the government concerning the contents of the mem orandum. '» • The document which M. Clementel handed the ambassador was entitled "an official memorandum concerning French public opinion on the payment of France's debt to the United States.” Ambassador Herrick said he could women's long hair and cut In even shorter than the usual bob. In 1889 In Omaha the women wore "tomboy bobs," the hair being cut short all over the heads and parted on the left side. Cooper says. "Before the popularity of bobbed hair In those days began to decline 1 bobbed the hair of some of the best women of Nebraska and nearby states," Cooper is quoted as saying. Although Cooper lived In Nebraska many years, he began bis work as barber in Iowa. Carl Shropp of the Woodmen of the World barber shop knew Cooper when he was here and says he only left Omaha two years ago. "The girls today are having the hair cut boy fashion Just as Cooper says they did many years ago," said Shropp. make no statement regarding the memorandum further than that it contained an unofficial suggestion re girding the manner of payment of the French debt. The ambassador stated he had de cided to give out this further informa tion because he felt there was likely to arise a great deal of misunder standing if nothing at all were said. He would not, however, discuss cer tain details which were eupposed to he among M. Clementel's suggestions, such as small, nominal Interest for the moratorium period, to be in creased as the payments began. Tiie moratorium period suggested is given variously as between 10 years and 15 years, while the period over which repayment is to run is given all the way from 08 years io 100 years. The American ambassador declined to confirm or deny the ac curacy of any of these suggestions. It is understood Mr. Herrick had promised the French government to keep the matter secret and that his reasons for making a brief statement regarding It was that leaks from French sources seemed likely to cause misunderstanding if he continued to remain silent.

Love's a funny thing. At 11 p. m. December 31, 1924, Earl Fleege, 3624 Farnam street, stammered "I do" to a Council Bluffs parson and everything was just dandy. At 1:30 s. m. January 3, 1925, tlie same young man put in 15 minutes at Central police station in a vain plea to Mildred Bivens Fleege. 21, for her return. Tearfully he urged his case and at last she said, Cupid Snaps a Wing. "All right, I'll come back—to get my things." And a hitherto perplexed Cupid snapped a wing pinion in a mad flight to Louis Earl, Chatham hotel, victor In this eternal triangle. Police first learned of Fleege's trou bles when he called to tell them that two men had driven up in a taxicab, had snatched his wife who was walk ing beside him, and had disappeared in a mad flurry of snow. Fleege gave them the number of the cab. “That's a I^ugli." the car at the Chatham hotel. In the hotel were Mildred and Ixtuis and there were no signs that this young bride had been struggling to free her self., “Kidnaped?" burbled Mildred. “That's a laugh. I'm here because I want to be." And here s the tale as Mildred tells It: Late Friday afternoon ah# met Louis Earl In a downtown store. "Have a Look.” "Let's go places," Louis suggested. t*I can't. I'm married," Mildred countered brightly. "Awgwan,” said Loui», an apparent scholar in the school of skepticism. "But I've got a license and every thing," Mildred insisted. "Gather In a taxi and I'll go out horn# and give you a look." Up to the "love nest” they rolled, as one Louis, like Barkis, wms willing. Out scrambled Mildred and returned, her license in her hand. Her hus band watched her go. As suspicious as Louis is skeptical, he Jotted down the number—and called, adding to his story various figments of his Imagina tion. "Xow let’s talk this over," Louis urged, as ha unrolled the Iowa cer tificate of "love, honor and obey."* Louis talked. Then he talked some more. In fact his discourse was still rolling on and was registering when police called at the Chatham hotel. Mildred realized that she could never b# happy with Earl when Louis was still counted In th# census figures of Omaha. To th# station they went. To Earl’s plea she lent a deaf ear. But Earl was a sportsman. "Well, Louis, you win," he said thrusting forth a right hand of friendship. And in his sleep a divorce court Judge tossed and tumbled uneasily. Ho, hum! Love's a funny thing. Civil War Veteran Dies.
