Will do well to advertise them in the
Want Columns of THE BEE because
in the immediate future, during the
coming -weeks of early Fall, many
hundreds of strangers will come to
Omaha. Hotels will be lull, they must
take rooms YOUR rooms if you guide
them to your home.
One need only to reflect a moment
to realize the truth of the above asser
tions. Firstly, hundreds -of students
will be coming to attend our schools
and colleges. Then, there will be Con
ventions, Festivals, Carnivals, eta
many of them. And they will all bring
countless, visitors
Hotels will be crammed and jam
med. Anyway, many people prefer a
quiet, restful room in a private home
rather than to stop at a public hotel.
These people will be busy they
' will have no time ttf run around looking
for rooms: So you had better guide
them to your place by a descriptive, "
little want ad together with your phone '
and address.
