These boards proved so clearly the value of co-operation and an ethical understanding ambng real estate men that the need of a great central body) a clearing house for ideas, and an agency for the standard isation of the business was clearly dem onstrated.

C. Sumney, prominent club weman snd wlfs of a local physician. She has arranged with city officials for a conference with the commissioners al tha city hall Monday morning at 10 o'clock, when she will present her plan and ask for the co-operation of the city authorities. "We do not plan to oppose publlo ex pectoration because It Is against tha law," ssys Mrs. Pumr.ey. "Our campaign will simply attempt to educate tha people against ths practice from the standpoint of filth and disease." She has explained It to Mrs. K. R. J. Edholm, state superintendent of anti tuberculosis society work, and also to Dr. It. W. Connell, health commissi ner; John A. Rlne, city attorney, and Commissioner Hummel, who U temporarily In charge of police and sanitation. They all ex pressed approval of tha proposed cam paign. Newspaper advertising, posters, bill boards, street car signs, handbills and cards, will be employed in reaching the people and urging them not to spit In public. Tha advertising and publicity cam paign against spitting wss originated by Dr. J. B. Anderson, health commissioner of Spokans, Mrs. Sumney says. It will be financed In Omaha, she says, by small contributions from many persons, who ara Interested In publlo welfare. She thinks tha present time to be most opportune for starting such a campaign, because of tha unusual prevalence of contagious diseases, such as grippe. In fluenza, bronchitis, pneumonia, scarlet fever, diphtheria and others. RETAIL CLOTHIERS WILL HEAR DIVINE Advertising jn Clothing Business will Be Topic of Expert Who Will Speak. . DELEGATES TO BEING CLIPPINGS Retail clothlera of Nebraska will be treated to a short course In ad vertising, when they attend the con vention of the Nebraska Retail Cloth ers association at the Fontenelle hotel, February 15 and 18. Vern C. Divine of the Chicago Service bur eau, has Just been engaged as one or the speakers for this convention and has taken for his subject, "Ad vertising a Clothing Stor." . It Is expected that the various dele gates to tha convention will bring with them some newspaper clippings of the advertisements they are running at home. These will be submitted to this expert, who. will comment on them, criticising those that ara defective and have no real selling power, and com mending those that la his estimation ara valuable. Other Speakers. Arthur T. Capps of Springfield. III., tho man at the head of tho woolen fac tories that buy raw wool and sell fin ished clothing. Is to be another speaker. O. N. Mage of Lincoln la to talk on 'Developing tha - Salea' , Force." A- J.

Is to talk on "Speeding tha Turnover." Other speakers are: C. E. Wry ,of Des Moines, secretary of tha National Association of Retail Clothelers; Charles Beno of Council Bluffs, J. Frank Barr of Omaha, and W.. Q. Uhley of Falrbury. Eeal Estate Exchange Considering Building , A building for ths Omaha Real Estate xchanga Is a' proposition the exchange has up now. The matter of financing the construction of the proposed building was discussed at the meeting Wednesday noon. Frank H. Meyers suggested that tha Exchange Issus stock to be held by the members, and that It then sell common stock enough to finance a company that could go Into tha business of platting, developing, building or other lines of real estate activity in the city for a profit. The proceeds could event ually be used to build a building. No definite action was taken at the meeting. The Exchange has something cf a fund now for which It has not yet found a satisfactory place. It Is lying Idle, drawing Interest in a savings bank or building and loan association. FIRST NATIONAL SELLS. . BUILDING NOW OCCUPIED About the first really big deal in real estate closed this month, and therefore this year, Is the sale of the First National Bank building, which has Just been bought by Albert K Cook, who control heavy real estate Interests in Chicago. The price was 1200,000, and the bank fixtures and vault went with the sale, as the First National bsnk will get an en tirely new set of fixtures when Ha new building at Sixteenth and Famam Is com pleted. The fact that the fixtures and vault were purchased by Mr. Cook with the old bank building at Thirteenth and Far nam streets, has set up some conjecture among business men la the city as to whether another bank la contemplating using that location.

TELLS OF VISIT TO MUNICIPAL COURT Hantfr Finds Chicago Institution Disposes of Vast Number of Suits Annually. CASES DIVIDED INTO CLASSES Richard C. Hunter, recently ap pointed Judge of the municipal court, returned last week from a trip to Chicago and Milwaukee in each of which cities he spent some time studying municipal courts. The Chicago court is similar to Omaha's snd is regarded as a model. Speak ing of what he learned Judge Hunter said: "The Chicago municipal court hag been In existence for ten years. It has beim ably administered and many think It tha type of court which Is best suited to modern conditions In populous communi ties. There are thirty Judges of tha superior and district courts In Chicago, which correspond to our district court. but the business of the municipal Court has conxtantly Increased, while the work of the other courts has docreased. "This Is ascribed to the belief that litigation is disposed of more Quickly in the municipal court so that attorneys prefer to take cases there. The Chicago municipal court has thirty-one Judges. Thirty receive salaries of 18,000 a yeir while the presiding Judge receives $10,' 00. The duties of the presiding Judge consist largely of exercising an oversight over the entire work of the court, but he also hears cases and attends to matters In the clerk's office. There is a force of 180 deputy clerks and 150 bailiffs. Special Coarti Established. "The Chicago court exercises police Jurisdiction and Is so large that It has) been found possible to establish special courts. There are eleven of those, includ ing the so-called morals court, the court of domestlo relations, the automobile court, where all infractions of the motor vehicles laws are considered, and the courts which try ordinary polios court cases. T other classes specialise in dlffertn kinds of civil litigation. "I am sure I do not know how lawyers of Omaha would take to a procedure by which each of the Judges of our ctfurt should attempt to dispose of over 6,000 coses a year, but the record of the Chi cago court shows that there were some thing over 200,000 cases commenced dur ing 1915 and that over 200,000 were finally disposed of, an average of over 6,000 for each Judge. About two-thirds of thesi were charges of misdemeanor or violation of city ordinances. "I was shown every consideration by the Judges and emploes that I met The operation of the specialized courts was exceedingly Interesting. They dispose of business rapidly and In a way that Is hard for a lawyer accustomed to prac tice in the west to understand. But Judged ly resutls my opinion is that their method Is a success."
