Leap Year Arrives
and Larry Flynn is
the First Target
Larry Flynn, deputy sheriff. Jolly,
rotund and of uncertain age, is believed
to be the first Omaha bachelor to re
ceive a leap year proposal.
Mr. Flynn recently received much at
tention In 'many quarters as the result of
a correspondence with a New Tork girl
Iwho desired to marry him and there wej
keen competition on the 'part of Omaha
lyoung "women to prevent the prlM from
going to Gotham.
The victim,, however, escaped all snares
by reason of the fact that convention
'required that he should speak first, whloh
he refused to do.
Monday morning a young woman called
Mr. Flynn by telephone and after a brief
Introduction of herself, asked for his
hand In marriage.
"I would like to marry you, my dear,"
she said.
"Do I know you well enough?" coun
tered Lorry desperately. "I don't want to
get married yet, I'm too young. I don't
know yet how many chances I'll get."
It is understood Larry's relatives want
him to wait at least a year.
Metcalfe Studies
Retailers' System
in St. Louis Stores
J. W. Metcalfe, secretary of the Asso
ciated Retailers of Omaha, has returned
from St. Louis, where he spent a few
weeks In a minute study of the systems
of the big retail stores and of the Re
tailers' association, with especial refer
ence to the abuse by some customers of
the privilege of taking out goods on ap
proval and the privilege of returning
goods.
Mr. Metcalfe will report his findings to
the Associated Retailers of Omaha at
their meeting January 13.
"I find the St. Louis merchants have
Instituted a lot of good things In their
practices," said Secretary Metcalfe, "and
we should be able to draw some good
lessons from them. They have a good
system of eliminating the abuse of the re
turn goods privilege, and then, too, they
have cut out the practice of holding
clearance sales at all times of the year,
which Is a practice that Is bad. They
have gone back to a sane basis of doing
business."

to transfer it to the homes of the people of Greater Omaha ana the surrounding country.
We are going to make this the greatest cut price home furnishing bargain event in the history of this city. We are going to dispose of the immense reserve stock now stored in our
big warehouse rooms. We are positively going to sell all of the samplesmow displayed on our five big sample floors, if prices never before quoted on high grade home furnishings will
