"Our Civic Pride," written, staged,
filmed and produced in Omaha, be
gan a 30-day showing in local the
aters at the Strand yesterday. It is a
movie depicting the need for and
work of the Omaha free dental dis
pensary for children, instituted last
year by prominent Omaha dentists.
Dr. F. F. Whitcomb, sponsor for the
dispensary, which is located at 758
crandeis building, wrote tne scenario.
Three Omaha children, Gordon
Pray, Ellen Myers and Bess Laverty,
are the stars. Thirty other children
appear in the film and in one scene
there is a playground with JUD chil
dren. Miss Charlotte Townsend, head
of the school nurses, two Brandeis
Players, Miss Mary Hill and Willard
Foster also took leading roles. The
Warren Film company produced the
film.
Need for Dispensary Work.
"We want the people of Omaha to
realize what a pressing need exists
for dental dispensary work and how
our institutions is trying to fill that
need. Well-cared-for teeth will do
much to remedy a low standard in
studies. Poor health is often the result
of diseased teeth," said Dr. Whit
comb. Scenes in the movie show the in
ception of the dental dispensary work,
school rooms where the nurses ex
amine the children and the different
phases of the work in the dispensary
rooms. A juvenile romannce lends ad
ditional interest to the movie.
Cohn Brothers Ask Court
To Rearrange Thair Names
Samuel Smead Cohn and his
brother, Abraham, seek to have the
district court rearrange their names
in a more convenient, euphonious,
and efficient order.
The brothers allege that the father
did not know what he was about
when I.e tacked Cohn onto the end of
his legitimate surname Smead for the
purposes of coming to the United
States. They say they have had no end
of trouble) with it ever since. People
misdirect their mail and call them to
the telephone unnecessarily on ac
count -f the superfluity of Cohns in
the directories. Therefore they pre
fer Smead as a surname. They sug
gest that Samuel and Abrahai.i Cohn
Smead would e by far the most
preferable arrangement.

Ancient Order of United Workmen.
A rather novel case was won out
side of court by the Ancient Order of
United Workmen of Nebraska when
E. J. Lambe, attorney for the order,
succeeded in locating Carl A. Sward,
supposed to be dead.
Some 10 years ago Sward disap
peared from Alliance and his where
abouts since that time had been a
mystery. His relatives brought suit
on his beneficiary certificate in the
sum of $2,000, alleging that his ab
sence, unaccounted for and covering
a period of more than seven years,
created a presumption of death and
therefore rendered the order liable.
After several months of diligent and
persistent search the attorneys for the
order succeeded in locating Sward
alive and well, so well in fact that he
is performing his daily duties as track
man for the Burlington in Wyoming.

Hymn to Kaiser's Goat Composed
By Former Bee Man Now in Chicago
When Ernest H. James was at
tached to The Bee staff, none ever
suspected him of being a poet and
song writer. He just went up and
down street, selling advertising space
and making good on the job. Now
that he is advertising manager for
the Chicago Post, he has found time
to tune his lyre and compose a hymn
to the kaiser's . goat. "When the
American Army Gets the Kaiser's
Goat," words and music by Ernest H.
James, is just off the press, and is
already receiving much favor in Chi
cago. Here are the words:
We're (tolng across IS" e to get the Oer-
mans.
We are sendlns troops abroad to flht for
peace.
They will do It with a will, and they'll
teach the Kalaer Bill
That on this world he cannot have a leaae.
Autocracy mut go Into the Junk pile,
It'a freedom and Democracy you'll note.
The Emp'rora. Kings and uch, will not
amount to much.
When the 'Mericaa army (eta the Kalaer!

CHORUS.
The t'nlted States, It Is a mighty nation.
And In a crista it will never tall.
Our dear old Uncle Sam la as peaceful aa a

Put when ho 'a rouaod he surely ts a whale.
We have the money, men and all the mak
ings.
Of the greatest army that the world 1 -s

Our boys are truly game, and the Kaiser's
goat tney ii tar. e.
And he'll wish he'd never seen a submarine.
Yes, he'll wish he'd never seen a submarine,
The Kaiser started war thruout all Europe.
And he came hire to embroil us In his plot.
His spits In their crude way. mistook Sammy

When they thought he'd fall for rot like

Rev. C. B. Harmon preached his
first sermon as pastor of the Lutheran
Church of Our Redeemer yesterday
morning. His subject was "God's
Voice, Man's Echo."
"As the echo of a loud voice is
heard when it reverberates against
the hills, so the echo of God's voice is
heard when it reaches the hearts of
true and sincere people," said Dr.
Harmon. 'We begin today a spiritual
relation as pastor and people which
we believe is the direct result of the
leading of God. It has been brought
about because God's voice has found
its echo in our hearts.
"What does God's voice say? Paul,
in his epistle to the Hebrews, declares
the word of God to be I will never
leave thee nor forsake thee.' And in
the next verse Paul quotes the echo
which God's voice finds in the hearts
of His people, namely, 'The Lord is
my helper and I will not fear what
man shall do unto me.'
God Is Responsible.
"A great work is before us here in
this church. It is a splendid field and
the work is waiting to be done. It will
be hard at times; discouragements will
come, but through it all let us remem
ber that it is God s work. He is re
sponsible for it. We are required
merely to be faithful and to do the
best we can. Having done that we
need have no fear whatever. The re
sult will be entirely in the hands of
uod."
The Church of Our Redeemer was
organized less than a year ago by
Kev. vv. l. Kanse, synodical mission
ary, who has been supplying the con
gregation as pastor until now. Rev.
Dr. Harmon was called to this charge
from North Platte, Neb.,' where he
was pastor for a number of years
and where he and his congregation
built a new church. He was president
of the Lutheran synod of Nebraska
last year. His new charge has alrcadv
a good start, with a growing Sunday
school and . connderab.c list of
church members. The robed choir of
15 voices is well trained. The con
gregation is holding its services tem
porarily in the Prairie Park hall,
Twenty-sixth street and Ames avenue.
At the morning service vesterdav
W. F. Kcdde and W. W. Frankfurt

A Safe Oil to Use
An engine with caked carbon oa the piston
head, Fouled spark plugs and unseated valves
is like a person with a cold in the head-all
stuffed up. Most of this comes from using
an oil that doesn't burn up clean.
Polarine burns up cleanreduces carbon tQ
, a minimum makes a smooth running,
powerful and economical motor.
Some motor oils pit the cylinders and eat
away the valves and piston nngs. That's due
to acids. There's not a trace of acid in
Polarine. It 8imply cannot eat away the
metal and destroy tne efficiency of the engine.
Plavsafe. Use Polarine alwavs. Free from
acid, grit and other injurious foreign matter.
