The establishment by the city of a
hospital tt Twenty-second street and
St. Mary's avenue, forathe internment
I of women who are affected by "so
cial diseases," ijvia plain violation of
the building cce of. this city.
Health Commissioner Manning an
nounced that he expected to open

morning. . " ,
Two three-story frame structures,
known as'the Fairfield buildings and
iiiore recently used as a maternity
hospital, have been rented by the city
' from the Omaha Association for the
Benerment of -Boys and Girls.

; icted by the city council a .few years
igo as an ordinance specifically
states that buildings of two stories
or more, . when used as hospitals,
shall be of fireproof construction.
Prepare Protests.
Persons representing property in
terestsadjacent to the new hospital
in question, are preparing protests
w"hich will be' presented to the city
:ouncil These protests will be based
, on the Omaha building code' and it
will be charged that the city council
.is violating the law in opening this
npspital in these three-story frame
buildings. .
The health commissioner- stated
that the new hospital will accommo
date 60 girls and --women without
crowding, and he added that 75 or
more could be received in an emer
gency. . The necessity for a hospital of this
natyre was urged by the federal
authorities who put it up to the city
in forceful manner that soldiers
must be protected from contamina
tions, which is .proving to be a
menace, not only in' Omaha but
throughout the country,

Dr. Palmer Findley will have charge1
of the hospital so far as the medical
part isconcerned.

Hot Weather Plays Havoc
With Course of True Love
" Sunday was a grouchy day in
Omaha. The weather was hot and
sultry, meat spoiled, babies cried and
husbands grumbled. i
j Husbands and wive decided "they
' just couldn't stand it another day,"
and hurried dowp-town to consult
Nf rs. Rose Ohaus of the domestic re
lations department of the Qmaha
Welfare board. There were so many
callers she' was kept busy all day
Sunday and they continued to come
' all day Monday. In many' homes
"iceless Sunday" led to a "hot time."
- "Hot weather is the 'open season'
for domestic trouble," stated Mrs.
Ohaus, "things that don't bother peo-
"p'e in cbld weather seem unendur-
i able during the hot months."

Naturalization Examiner

"C. F. Boester, naturalization exam
iner, who has been in Omaha in
charge qf the naturalizing' of alien
soldiers at Fort Crook and Fort
Omaha, leaves Monday night fo&St.
Louis..' At the end of the weekhe will
proceed 'to Memphis. .
Only twenty-two of the 630 sol
diers examined at Fort Crook and
only one of the 120 examined at Fort
Omaha were refused naturalization.
Some of these had not yet made up
their minds to become citizens, some
were quite willing to fight in the
United States armies as long as they
wjere not forced to fight against their
kin in their native land, and some had
-brothers in enemy armies."
Winter Wheat Prospects
' 1 Brighten With Heavy Rains
.The Burlington's ,weekly crop re
port indicates that with the abundant
rainfall last week, Nebraska winter
wheat prospects brightened material
ly, except- along the Missouri river.
In this are$the grain "was pretty
wel along and the wet weather ap
parently did littl in the way of in
cttasing the " length of the straw,
. though it is heading in a satisfactory
mariner. . v-

rested Sunday night in a room
ing house at 2212 Douglas street,
operated by Mrs. W. A. Frans,
mere discharged in police court
Monday morning. . Police Judge
Madden reprimanded the arresting of
ficefs, declaring: "I will not tolerate
cases o this sort, with absolutely no
evidence "or suspicion against those
arrested, to be brought into this
court" Ponce said they raided the
place on suspicion. V,
When Mrs. L. F. Amos, 50 years

Railroads Must increase
Intrastate Load Minimum
Railroads, in accordance with a
ruling of the . Interstate Commerce
commission, must increase their in
trastate minimum on carload ship
ments of grain within Nebraska, Iowa,
Kansas and a number of the other
western states.
Heretofore railroads have held to
30,000 pounds as the minimum grain
load per car. The cowmisjion has
placed the minimum at 40,000 pounds.
This puts the intrastate and the inter
sUne in line. '
The Interstate commission has held
that the former rule establishing a
30,000 per far loading for flour from
Missouri river points is unduly prefer
ential for Illinois mills and prejudicial

to western producers. Hereafter the
.40,000-pound car loading will be the
rule. '

Selecting a shoe
for a child is a very
important matter.
To paraphrase a
familiar sayine:
"Shane trie f!Tii1H'fl
Foot in the Way it Should Grow" brings to mind
the fact that comfort and a true appreciation of
nature's demands are two of the main things that
should be considered in selecting Footwear for
children.
Because the Billiken Shoe is a build on ana
tomical lines, conforming; to nature's demands for
freedom and proper room for expansion, we have
, selected these Shoes and stand back of them with
our guarantee and that of the makers for perfect
satisfaction.
1 t
Billiken Shoes are made without nails that
hurt little feet they do not pinch or bind-rthey
are absolutely flexible, as you will see when you
take one of these Shoes in your hand and bend
the toe back to the heel.
There is just as much difference between
Shoes as there is between p'eople, and unless the
makers conceive the right idea, no amount ofstyle
or polished appearance will condone for lack of
comfort.
You can bring the children here with absolute
surety of perfect fit, long service and complete
satisfaction. Billiken Shoes are shown in all styles '
and sizes and priced accordingly.
