THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8. 1917. 11 " NAVY IS POINT OH k ROADTO SUCCESS Good Pay, Comfortable Quar ters and Thorough Education is What Uncle Sam Gives ' ' His Tars. Irish Countess Sells Shamrocks For Benefit of Crippled Soldiers What U. 5. Navy Does For Man Who Joins 1. Gives him a salary equal to or greater than he is making in civil life. 2. Gives him a $50,000 education. It costs Uncle Sam at least that much for each man trained four years in the navy. 3. Gives him a trade or profes sion by which he can make his living in after life. 4. Gives him a standing that is invaluable. There is not a large business house in the country but will give a good job to the young man honorably discharged from the United States navy. The navy makes real men, and business firms fall over each other to get them after they are discharged. "T!ie navy will take any voung man in Omaha under, 30 and give him more money than he is making in civil life.'-' - This is the standing offer made by Ensign Condict of the naval recruiting office. Last night he stood in front of the, navy tent on the carnival grounds and convinced the young men who sapped before the torpedo and other naval exhibits that they would be gain ing far more than they lost by giving up their positions to join the navy. "The rawest apprentice seaman gets $32.50 and all expenses, also clothing. I defy anyone to find in Omaha the kind of board and lodging with med ical attention and other essentials at less than $50 a month, "In a short time the young man entering the navy becomes a petty officer" continued Ensign Condict. "As m well known, one out of three men in the navy is' an officer. His salary is again raised tand in six months afer entrance he is earning what is equivalent to $100 a month with a better chance to save money than in civil lite; - May . Be Officer. "It matters ' hot what walk of life he is in before he enters the navy. A registeredpharmacist, a physician an educated; man of any kind will find a good place waiting for him in the navy with a salary more, I feel safe in saying, than he is making before he joirts after eliminating the expenses in civil life. If he passes the examina tions he will be made an officer and given a' salary larger than he is get ting in civil life. "Except in the cases of older men who. have after years,' established a large clientele or practice, the prof fcssronal or business men can do no better than to join the navy. "The education given a young man during. his four years in the navy costs his Uncle Sam as high as $50,000. For his education the government has the best;equipment possible. -If he wants, to learn a trade every facility is pro vided, expensive tools and machinery, expert teachers. If he learns a "pro fession, as surgery and-pharmacy, the hospital ships where he is taught have the-finest equipment in the land and t'le most skilled physicians' and pro lessors for instructors. . :. I' "In training for fighting no pain spared. The young tar learns to "ire off th6 big guns at $1,000 a shot, lie learrts to shoot a torpedo, though one of these costs-the government $10,000-and he is very likely to lose one or more for the government. "The-highcst quality in clothing, the best food and most comfortable quart ers are provided for him. Students at : Yale an$I Harvard get no better.. k .. Plenty of Jobs. "When a young man leaves the navy he finds himself in advance of his mates who stayed in civil walks. Be sides theispecial trade or profession he has had an opportunity of learn ing, he .finds, all the manufacturing plants and . business houses swing their doors wide -open for him. "The Standard Oil company, to cite one, haS'a perpetual offer to take in instantly" any man honorably dis charged from the navy. They know that, the discipline and training has male a dependable man of him, that he lias judgment and skill. If placed in charge of an oil tank, a factory or an office, the man from the navy can be trusted to stay on the job. The navy man makes a good executive and quickly rises to such a position when again in civil life. "The Bascom Wire Rope company, which Ynakes suspension bridges and cables for big engineering projects, is another firm preferring navy men. Most of its office and desk men were formerly in the navy. This firm, like the Standard Oil, will take in any navy man, whether there is a vacancy or not, so glad is it to get such. In six months the young man from the navy entering this factory is usually made superintendent of a factory depart ment or placed in charge of an office The navy-trained lad shopts beyond and above his co-workers quickly And he never lacks a job."

In a booth at the carnival grounds the countess and her assistants, all Irish girls, are selling little t.cen shamrock pins. The nickels and quar ters raised thus will go to make life worth living tar the crippled chaps who gave their all for the freedom of the world. There are now 1,574 of these crip pled Irish soldiers receiving aid. Em ployment has been found for manv and those unable to take up their former occupations are to be taught trades, typewriting, bookkeeping, elec trical work and so on, so they may earn their own living once more. Those who have contracted tubercu losis will be treated in sanitariums, Families of these men are also as sisted. The countess is vice president of the Dublin branch of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Help society and pays her own expenses. Those who wish to do more than boy shamrocks from the counters can send donations to the Shamrock Fund, 39 East Fifty eighth street, New York City. Checks should be made payable to the Sham rock fund. W7k Wake Up, Mr. Coal Dealer! Although unsolicited advice may not be desired, The Bee volunteers the suggestion to Omaha coal dealers to wake up and get in tune with the times. The government has put coal on the list of necessities sub ject to official price limit? tion, but some of our Omaha coal men still insist they will hold their supplies at prices tov suit them selves. Befusal to recognize the inevitable has already caused a congestion in local yards by deferring deliveries, most house holders waiting while the dealers refuse to sell subject to gov ernment price. Omaha coal men doubtless find it hard to re adjust, but they may as well accept the situation not next month, nor next week, but right now. Dealers in cities all around us are offering to deliver coal to be billed at government price, and the price will be fixed for Iowa, for Missouri, for Kansas, for states all around us, to which ours m Nebraska must bear a direct relation. The Bee suggests that Omaha coal dealers, perhaps through failure to understand the situation, have been standing in their own light. Wittingly or unwittingly, they have done more than anyone else to bring on the muny coal yard. The way for them to retain public favor is to square their business with war-time needs without delay.

MUNY YARD EXPECTS FIRST MAL TODAY Shipment of Illinois Egg Due Here This Afternoon; to Take Orders Immediately Upon Arrival. ' Omaha's municipal coal depart ment expects first shipment this morn ing and Commissioner Butler believes the city will be ready to receive orders today. Orders will not be accepted until coal is on track and all orders must be accompanied by cash. ..'

The price will be $5.75 per ton delivered. Carry-ing-in charges will be extra, but chute will be furnished if desired.

All deliveries will be made under di rection of Superintendent Parks of street cleaning and maintenance de partment, who has offered to haul coal with trucks of his department, at cost." An order for four more cars was closed this morning over long dis tance telephone, this being Kansas coal. Ten cars are expected within a few days. The city has closed or ders for thirty-nine cars as a starter. Corporation Counsel Lambert will have the honfr of giving the first or der to the municipal coal yard.

Bee Want Ads Produce Results. II WORLD FAMOUS VIRGINIA HA PEOPLE ENDORSE HOG REMEDY Two Chemists Labored in Their Interests for Ten Years Per fecting Anti-Choleric Hog Remedy Which Five Years Prove Success. Renowned Sales Manager Leading Campaign Introducing It Through Omaha Druggist REPRESENTATIVES HERE NOW The reader has doubtless read in the recent issues of the Omaha newspapers of the arrival in the state of a corps of Virginians who are introducing a new, remarkable and entirely different hog remedy, cre ated after ten years' labor by two chemists who labored unceasingly in the interest of the Virginian Ham people, raisers of the world-famous hams, which for some reason, demand a higher price than any other ham on the market.- At last perfected, after research work in different parts of this country and the study of the results of experiments in Germany, it has been used in that section for the past five years with wonderful results.1 Seek Larger Production To meet the rising costs of drugs contained in this entirely medicinal preparation, they seek a wider demand so that increased production may keep the price within the slogan, "One hundred doses for a dollar." And representatives are arranging for its distribution through one or more stores (usually drug stores in each town in Nebraska, several be ing in this vicinity now). " , . ' Mr. P. B. Gravely, the nationally known sales , manager, is jn charge, and with his characteristic vigor and big "42 centimeter" style, -is arranging to familiarize every farmer in the state with this remedy,.. whichUs generally, known and- labelled as the Virginian AntUCholenc Hog Remedy; ' " . ' Following the salesman will come Virginia Ham men, skilled in the use of. Anti-Choleric, and these farmers will be asked to administer the remedy to sfck hogs in various parts of the state as part of the demon stration work in the campaign. -' "Tests have demonstrated; that we can put a hog that has cholera tack on his feet, even after he no longer will eat and is usually con sidered all but dead: . It'.drives out stomach and intestinal worms, too, and acts as a general system cleanser, tonic, indigestion, stimulant and invigorator of the hog's liver, bladder and bowels. It increases his ap petite and as a conditioner it can not be beat," declared one of the gentlemen yesterday. - : -"All that a farmer has to do to demonstrate the fact that Anti Choleric Hog Remedy will make a pig 33 per cent to 60 per cerft heavier, is to keep a few to themselves and administer it in their food, at first daily and gradually reduced until a dose twice a week keeps hogs in the pink of condition," continued this gentleman. "We absolutely .guaran tee this Virginia preparation. We found during the past five years it can 'be absolutely depended upon. If your druggist hasn't it he can get you a hundred-dose package to try out on three or five hogs, by order ing from the BEATON DRUG CO. 15th and Farnam Streets Omaha, Neb. What is a man worth? No one seems to know for sure, but there is no doubt as to the value of a hog. That's computed in dollars and rents. Ten thousand dollars is the value xf some of the hogs that will be shown at the National Swine show which begins at the horse barns at the Union Stock yards Wednesday. Hogs were coming in alt day Mon day. All are prize winners. Hogs that did not win blue ribbons at state fairs would not appear at . a national show, so the collection is "the fat of the land." "The National Swine show is a still show," said Everett E. Bucking ham, vice president and general manager of the Omaha Stock Yards company. "We don't have cheering and shouting. But it is a big show and deals with the most important question in the world today that of increasing the food production. It's a worth while show for a worth while purpose." South High Night School Registration Next Week What does it mean to be a citizen? What sacrifice does it require during war time? What are its rewards? These are the kinds of lessons that will be taught to foreign born persons at the South Side High night school soon. Miss Chase will have charge of a special course in citizenship. This course has been arranged to meet local needs in regard to present day topics. . The night school will offer more than thirty different subjects. Three languages will be taught.

The course in English will be especially planned to help the students to speak and write English well. Registration, for work in the night school will begin next Monday night, from 7 to, 9 o'clock. The high school will also be open for registration Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Deaf Mute Secures Job; Five Days in Workhouse A deaf and dumb mute was tried in South Side police court Tuesday morning charged with being a va grant. He tried to defend himself by writing an explanation for the court to read, but the court was busy and he was not given much time. He wrote that he has tried to get work and he wished the court would help him get a job. t The court said, "We'll get you a job," and City Prosecutor Anheiiser wrote, "Yes, we'll give you a job. Glass Smells of Whisky and Owner is Pinched Can the smell of whisky convict a man for the illegal possession of liquor? Officials at the South Side police court puzzled over the proposi tion as they each sniffed at the little whisky glass which had been brought into police court to he used 'as' evi dence in the case of 'John Stepanek. who operates a soft drink place at Thirtv-mnth and L. streets. Officer Shean arrested Stepanek Monday nighf after he had seen him give a drink to a friend. He believes that the drink was whisky and says that the glass smells of whisky. A int bottle labeled "Ameri can Pride of Bourbon," was found in a cellar under the soft drink place. Stepanek is out on $105 bonds. His case will be tried Thursday.
