FINDS OMAHA THE
PLACE OF OPPORTUNITY
Eugene McGill, Energetic Texan,
Finds Business Prosperity Here,
And Is Glad He Came.
Like many other residents of the
south, who have become very much.j
dissatisfied with conditions there, less
than two years ago, Eugene McGill of
Forth Worth, Texas, began looking
about for some northern city to which
he might remove himself and family.
Through The Monitor he learned of
EUGENE McGILL,
South Side Restaurateur.
Omaha, and decided that he would
take his chances here. So in Novem
ber, 1918. he landed In Omaha and
located on the South Side. With a
capital of $180 he opened a restaurant
at 2526 Q street. By attending
strictly to business and catering to
the needs of his patrons his business
rapidly grew. So successful has he
been that from the earnings of his
restaurant business he has been able
to purchase for cash, and a consid
erable sum at that, the present build
ing which he occupies at 2516 Q
street. He is planning to buy other
property on the South Side. He has
associated with him in the business
his stepson, William Davis. Mr. Mc
Gill is very well satisfied in coming
to Omaha which he sayB offers splen
did opportunities for industrious and
law-abiding citizens. He is of the
type which helps to contribute to
wards the building up of a substan
tial citizenry.
We want your patronage. Trade
with Finkenstein.
