"LUCKY SEVENTH" IS
READY FOR SERYIGE
High School Boy Draws Poster
Urging Enlisting in the New
National Guard Com
panies in Oniaha.
Orders from Adjutant General Steele
at Lincoln came yesterday to Ma
jor Ray Abbott of the Seventh militia
reserve, designating the companies of
the Omaha battalion as E, F, G
and H. The Omaha battalion of the
"Lucky Seventh" has been recruited
in the last two weeks, but already it
is large enough to promise that the
four full companies will soon be
formed.
Fred W. Higgitison of Omaha has
received notice of his appointment
as captain of Company E. This com
pany was mustered in last night at
the recruiting headquarters, 1612 Far
nam street
"We will first he sworn into state
service," said Captain Higginson.
"Then we will cive an exhibition
of squad drills on the streets. After
that we will be at Omaha s service.
We will keep on with our regular
business and drill at night. For awhile
we will be compelled to use the streets
for drilling. After the machine gun
company of the Fifth leaves we will
drill in the armory. When needed for
guard duty, to quell strikes or In
dustrial Workers of the World dis
order, we will be on hand.
"Jimmy" Williamson, a talented
young high school student, who can
not enlist because he is under the age
limit, has found he can help the mil
itia reserve now organizing in an
other way. '
. "Jimmy" is a genius at poster de
signing and he. has drawn some re
markably fine pictures showing the
reasons why Omaha boys should
join the militia reserve.
, Several of these are on the window
of the recruiting office, 1612 Farnar.i
street, and have attracted much at
tention from passersby w!iu .lpposcd
they were the work of some of the
famous eastern artists till they
looked closer and saw the signature
in the corner.
One striking sketch shows a pow
erfully drawn soldier in the fore
ground pointing to a terrifying battle
scene behind him. The picture is
labeled:
"I'm Going Into This for You.
"Protect My Family."
Another poster shows a dead sol
dier on the battlefield, amid gre.v
some surroundings. Beneath this are
the words: ,
"This Man Has Paid Your Debt to 1
France.
"Pay Yours to Him and Protect
His family. x

Iowa and Nebraska Grocers
Dicuss Hoover Food Bill
Twenty members of the Iowa and
Nebraska Wholesale Grocers' asso
ciation met at the Fontenelle hotel
Thursday morning to discuss how
they would be affected by the Hoover
food administration campaign.
A. C. Melhop of Council Bluffs,
secretary of the association said:
"We have received certain informa
tion from indirect sources that Mr.
Hoover's committee will fix the prices
on some of the staples going from
the manufacturer and producer to the
consumer. However, we have no idea
what staples will be selected by the
committee. We have met to consider
how the grocery business will be af
fected in this territory, and, from the
little information that has been re
ceived, to endeavor to form the
groundwork in preparation for the re
adjustment in the prices of food that
is bound to come.
Mr. Melhop declared that the
wholesale grocers are co-operating
with the government in this new
movement to the best of their pow
ers. "We are an organization loyal
to the United Mates and we recognize
our duty to the government. We are
now awaiting dctinite word as to what
staples will be affected and the com
mands of the food commission will
be obeyed to the letter."
