Omaha, August 30.
HELLO. MAME? Yes, this Is Mary!"
"What! -Christmas shopping! Why, it's still summer!"
"Bargains: Ten o'clock tomorrow morning! W-well, I
g-guess so, yes, I'll be there. Goodby!"
. The above took place the other day In Omaha over a perfectly good
little telephone with an ordinary Ireceiver. "Central" will vouch for it.
- It's a fact a cold, hard fact, bounded on the north by the little ham
let of Florence and the Minne-Lusa premises, on the. east by the Missouri
river, on the south by the packing houses, and on the west by Dundee and
Benson. Omaha women, that is, charter members of the Ancient and
Honorable Early Shopping league, have been buying Christmas presents
during these last few days, despite the fact that ordinary perspiring mor
tals have been sweltering in the murkiness of Old Sol's rays.
Do the clerks know about this stampede of early shoppers? Some of
them do, but they never wink an eye lash. True, the regular Christmas
stock is not yet on band, but, then, there are knick-knacks and bargains
galore during the summer months and who will notice the difference
when December 25 rolls around. '. ' ..
After September 1, there's only ninety-eight shopping days until
Christmas, the sixteen remaining Sundays and Labor day being excluded.

MODERN CITYjS A PROBLEM
Moral and Spiritual Ideals Needed to
Cope with Conditions.
"" "
DR. JENKINS AT INSTITUTE
He Explains to Teachers ftoetal and
Other Problems as They Relate' ,
Districts.
. t.
Dr. D. E. Jenkins, president of the
Omaha university, delivered an address
before the Douglas county teachers' in
stitute yesterday on "The Problem of the
Modern City." He rave figures showing
the phenomenal growth of the modern
cities .of the world. He quoted statistics
Ehowlng- that in Rhode Island til per oent
of the population was In the cities; In
Massachusetts, 76 per cent; In New Jer
sey, 68 per oent; In Connecticut, 63 per
cent. London, which Is 2,000 years Old, he
said, had crown five times as much In
the last century as In all the preceding
oenturies. Parle, he said, had quadrupled
since 1800; St. Petersburg had trebled In
the last eeventy-flve years, "The city,"
he said, "Is the center for the collection
and distribution of farm products and for
the manufacture and distribution of ma
chinery and farm implements." Th
speaker pointed out the Interesting fea
ture of modern industry that in the cities
labor-saving machinery for the farms is
manufactured, which being placed In
operation on the farms save labor and
thereby releases farm help, which In
turn flocks to the cities to produce more
machinery which will release more farm
labor, and so on.
Educate the Conscience.
This massing of the population to the
cities, Dr. Jenkins said,' made the city
the most crucial problem of modern civ
ilization, as the good and bad forces, so
cial, economic and political, were nu
cleated In the city. Education, the
speaker said, was the most fundamental
influence at work In dealing with this
problem. There must be moral end spir
itual Ideals In the education, and the edu
cators of the country are uniformly com
ing to realize the necessity of educating
the conscience. "It was the lack of
clear cut moral conceptions on the part
of the youth of the high schools that
was a factor In bringing about the Men
and Religion Forward movement that
swept the country last winter," said Dr.
Jenkins.
A number Of charts were used to Illus
trate the social, Industrial and moral con
ditions of Omaha, and the speaker laid
thar It was the aim of the -Omaha uni
versity, of which he Is president, to put
higher education and practical education
within the reach of the ypung people of
moderate means of Omaha, all within
the range of 5-cent carfare, and that the
university wae aiming In particular to
analyze the needs of our city.
