While hhc is willing, Mr. Abbott

"She told me part of the message

A Silly Song
n a rnrirnrt tit-dt 1
By. A. CUCKOO BIRD.
At planning things Jim Dodge U
good. His head works like the
dickens. One time he figured out a
way to raise a million chickens. His
plan was sure a dandy; when Jin:
had got it finished, 'twould have
made him independent if his pep had
not diminished. Jim's fertile mind
tvorks day and night and still Jim
thinks it's funny because these well
laid plans of his don't bring him any
money. The world is full of men
like Jim, -with patches on their
britches, "who, if they carried . ou
their plans, would soon be swamped
in riches. They build their castles
in the air and give them 410 founda
tions. They labor with their cal
loused hands and waste their inspir
ations. For any man can plan his
work, but- many are defeated because
they do not work their plan, when
mcy have it completed.

If TwinKkhecls spoke to him.
Ebencrer rl(!om heard him the first
time. And often Khrnczer even fell
asleep while Twinklehccls was talk
ing to him.
Twinklehecls always moved smart
ly. F.benezer took his time about
everything. When anybody backed
him between the thills of a wagon,
he was as slow as Timothv Turtle;
and no more graceful. And, while
people harnessed fr.m, he usually
sighed heavily now and then, be
cause he dreaded being hurried along
the road.
Before Twinkleheels came to the
farm to live, Johnnie Green had
thought it quite a lark to drive or
ride Ebenezer. Now. however.
Johnnie paid little heed to the old
horse. And to tell the truth, tben-
ezer was content to be let alone.
"This bov must have found it "a
bit poky, riding you, Twinklehccls
remarked to Ebenezer one day when
he noticed that the old horse was
actually wide awake.
"He found me safe, Ebenezer re
plied. "That's why Farmer Green
let Johnnie ride me."
Its a wonder vou didnt fall
asleep and tumble down and throw

Mm .very sure-tooted, t-benezcr
told him proudly. "Of course, a
person will step on a loose stone now
and then. But I've never really
stumbled in my whole life."
How old are you? Twinkleheels
inquired.
' 1 m twenty, Ebenezer told him.
"And you've nevei stumbled in all
that timel" Twinkleheels cried. "How
did you manage to stay on your feet
like that?"
"Bt minding my business," Eben
ezer explained with a shrewd glance
at his young companion.
The answer and the look were
both lost on Twinkleheels.

Omaha On the
Up-Grade
A survey of the Industrial and commercial world
of Omaha made recently by J. M. Gillan, manager of
the industrial bureau of the Omaha Chamber of. Com
merce, shows Omaha concerns on a solid footing in spite
of the period of deflation and depression that they have
just undergone.
Business men and bankers with whom Mr. Gillan
talked while making his survey were optimistic regard
ing the coming year.
"Looking over the business progress of Omaha dur
ing the last three or four years, it becomes evident that
the retail, wholesale, jobbing and manufacturing estab
lishments that were properly financed and .well man
aged have come through the rapidly changing conditions
in the business world safe and sound," Mr. Gillan
sums up.
"Notwithstanding" the unusual difficulties which
have accompanied a rapid fall in prices during the last
two years, comparatively few of the well-established
business houses and manufacturing establishments of
Omaha have experienced any very serious embarrass
ment. The few failures that have occurred have in the
main been among those firms that were not sufficiently
financed and not properly managed.
"There could be no better assurance of the perma
nent stability and future growth of Omaha than that
found in the history of hundreds of our well-known com
mercial and manufacturing plants during the last two
years. They have weathered the storm in triumph, paid
their regular dividends on preferred stock and many of
them are in shape to increase and enlarge their business
and their sales territory during the- coming year. -
"Credit is due the leading banks of Omaha for their
liberal and broad-minded policy of standing faithfully
by the commercial interests of Omaha during the months
when it was exceedingly difficult to secure sufficient
working capital. Many of these bankers also furnished
valuable suggestions and advice to their patrons during
the stringent times.
i, -
"Toward the close of 1921 there were pessimists in
Omaha who made many whispered predictions that the
first of the year 1922 would probably witness a number
of financial wrecks among the business concerns of
Omaha. These predictions have been very wide of the
mark, for Omaha business houses and manufacturing
plants are moving on with very little embarrassment.
The old and well-established firms, representing the va
rious lines, such as dry goods, groceries, hardware, boots
and shoes, millinery, lumber, coal, implements and ma
chinery, drugs, paper and stationery, food products,
building materials, grain and many other lines, are mak
ing satisfactory progress, notwithstanding the fact that
the great agricultural region surrounding Omaha has
been seriously handicapped by the unusually low prices
prevailing for farm produce and live, stock.
'-"The manufacturing establishments producing food
products meats, flour; syrup, butter, ice cream, cereals
are all on a firm and substantial basis. The planing
mills, machine shops, structural steel, cement block fac
tories and many other lines of building material are rea
sonably prosperous. Concerns manufacturing ready-to-wear
garments, shirts, overalls, hats, caps, neckties,
. women's dresses, boots and shoes are in business at the
old stand. The box factories, ' both paper and wood,
chemical and serum factories, harness and saddlery, rub
ber tires and tubesanimal foods and remedies, printing
houses and ice machine factories have little reason to
complain or be discouraged.
"In the main the retail trade of Omaha is coming
through in fine shape. The unusually open winter has
made it a little difficult for houses carrying heavy
-goods, but the merchants have discounted this contin
gency in most cases and feel that the spring trade will
undoubtedly make up in volume what the winter trade
may have failed to supply.
"The whole situation, viewed broadly, furnishes
abundant proof that Omaha business is on a sound basis,
and that money invested in legitimate, well-financed,
well-managed Omaha commercial or manufacturing, en
terprises can and will return satisfactory profits to the
investor." ' .
