Woman Invades Sacred
Precincts of Omaha Bank
When woman Invaded the sacred
precincts of the Omaha National
bank the motted question of femin
ine capacity for breadth of responsi
bility and keen Insight Into financial
matters was removed from doubt.
This was thoroughly exemplified In
the Instance of Miss Anna Hansen.
Who came to the bank about a year
ago, rising within th twelvemonth
to the charge of the savings de
partment, which was Inaugurated at
the bank Monday.
Rome time since the officials of the
bank resolved to experiment with
women assistants, and they found
them eminently suoceeeful ss cleri
cal helpers. This was esr'cially
true of Miss Hansen, who demon
strated remarkable deftness, pleasing
accuracy and almost endless ability.
Her worth was put to the severe
test when she was assigned to the
analysis department of the bank,
wher a general knowledge of the
Intricacies of financial patronage Is
so absolutely necessary.
Miss Hansen Is regarded as one of
the cleverest women banking em
ployes In the west She came here
In June, 1910, from the German Saving bank
cleverness, she attracted th serious attention

The thirsty citizenship .-.f the vlllase of
Florence gstherfd at the town hall Tues
day night and watched with pathetic
eagerness the vagaries of the council on
the license question. Protests against the
granting of the four licenses which re
cently expired were read and the audience
groaned and hissed.
This enraged the prohibition people and i
Councilman Grigg Introduced an ordinance!
which was passed, putting upon the !
saloons more restrictions than ever before.
They are to pay under this law 1.(W)
license and 1100 occupation tax. The Hln
eumb Inw was embodied and all such tin
pleasant regulations as the forbidding of
chairs and tables, and Inside locks were
specified. The locking regulation was to
make saloon keepers close their places of
business only from the outside with a
padlock and key.
Tool halls and bowling alleys received
two blows. Councilman August Peterson
Introduced an ordinance to abolish them
altogether and Councilman Fnrls followed
this with one for vetV strict regulation.
The license fee was fixed at 120 for the
first table and $10 a table for others and
all gambling and playing of cards pro
hibited. The halls must be closed at 10:30
and on Sundays. The pool halls also must
be locked with padlocks.
The moral throes of the council were
observed by a crowd which packed the
hall and hung around the outside edges.

How to A?oid Street Car Accidents
I. Boarding a Car
RASP the forward hand-hold with your right hand; face
slightly towards the front of the car and step up onto the
step with the left foot firpt; retain hold with your hands until you
are safely on the platform. It is always better to wait until tha
car stops and then step lively. .,
Never under any circumstances attempt to board the front
platform of a moving car, as a mis-step here is almost certain to
throw you under the wheels, and death or a crushed limb will be
tLe result. (
If you board a car properly, there is not much danger of ac
cident, even if the car should start before you are fully on.
