“There’s More Than One Traffic
Problem”
said Aunt Julia, as she watched the
policeman a£ the comer trying to un
tangle the lines of passing automobiles.
“Seems like everyone wants to go down
the same street at the same time. They
get into the habit, and forget all about
the short-cuts. Same way with lots of
women with their housework. Just be
cause they get used to doing things a
certain way they keep right at it, when
the chances are they could find a short
cut if they would just stop and think.”
Aunt Julia is right about the wash
day short-cut. In the average home
there are enough things for the house
wife to do without bothering about the
washing. So the modern laundry is
ready to help her straighten out her
traffic problem by doing the washing
and ironing for her. May we help you?

Muscle Shoals Up In New Form.
With the withdrawal of the Ford
proposal for the power properties at
Muscle Shoals a new measure has
been offered in congress by Senator
Underwood. He would urge that the
primary purpose of the power be for
the manufacture of nitrates that would
go into fertilizers and that remaining
power be sold for general distribution
for electric light and power. The bill
proposes that opportunity for lease to
private companies be left open for six
months but that failure to make ad
vantageous lease shall then make it
abligatory upon the government to op
I erate the properties. The measure is
! understood to have the general appro
| val of the administration but it is rec
. ognized that many amendments will
| he offered and Senator Uuderwood has
| indicated his wiliinigness to accept
j such as are in harmony with the prin
ciple of his proposal.
REM ARK OF FAKE SOLICITOR.
_
This is the time of year to beware of
the fake solicitor who seeks funds
under the guise of charity. This fellow
is one kind of swindler "'ho preys
upon human emotions at a time when
hearts begin to open and respond
to the Christmas urge.
Know to whom, and for wliat, you
are giving. If a proposition isnotworth
investigating, it is not worth giving
toward. Every unworthy cause that
makes a successful appeal may noi
harm the mistaken giver to any great
extend, but it causes every worthy
cause to suffer by making it more
difficult for the worthy cause 10 find
a needed response. It is the unknown
and stranger—solicitor that needs the
watching. j
WORE INDUSTRIES FOR O’NEILL, j
Legitimate enterprises in manu- ■
facturing should be encouraged. In
creased payrolls bring prosperity.
Manufactured products advertise a
town extensively. Factories swell
postal receipts and bulge bank de
posits. O’Neill does not want fly-by
night schemes or worthless stock-sell
ing propositions. The problem is to
make the discrimination, and then go
after the promotions and industries!
that are worthy. A city or town has j
a valuable asset *n established manu
facturing plants, with contented and
well paid workmen. Home owning is
stimulated and the endless cycle of,
prosperity revolves.
A census of the farms of the coun
try is now being taken by the federal
census bureau. This census was au
thorized by the last session of con-:
gress following a resolutinen formed i
by the agricultural committee of the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce which
was presented to congress by the na
tional chamber.
