Providing the Apple a Day
Who wouldn't rather eat an apple
than tn:c- a pill before going to bed?
"An apple a day keeps the doctor
away" is just as true today as it was
a generation ago. While city folks
may depend upon the fruit dealer and
the wholesaler to provide an all-winter
supply, farm folks with a sup
ply on the farm or available from the
neighbors should regard the apples
they put away as so many living
things and treat them accordingly.
Apples ripen in storage just as they
do on the trees and the secret of
good storage is to retard the ripen
ing process as much as possible. This
is best accomplished by keeping the
apples in a shaded, well ventilated
corn crib or shed until freezing
weather comes, then moving them
into a cave or cool room of the cel
lar. Ventilation is essential in pre
venting molds and rots. A storge
place that is too dry causes wilting.
If this occurs, wet the floor daily or
l:np a shallow pan of water in the
roc m.

I The walls have been tinted a rich
I cream, fine oak floors laid and the
two furnaces have been removed and
a bricked in furnace installed in the
i rear of the rooms, and the whole
makes one of the most beautiful
church parlors in the city.
The ladies hardly felt that the
term basement could now be used so
last night at the suggestion of Mrs.
McClusky, the name of Fellowship
Rooms was given and formally ac-
I cepted by fhe members of the church.
The beauty of the room was greatly
enhanced by the profusion of fall
flowers and foliage. A splendid pro
gram had been arranged by the com
mittee in charge which added much
to the evening's entertainment.
Two piano duets were given by
Doris and Douglas Douglas, and by
the two Comstock boys. Piano solo
by Miss West, one of our talented
teachers. Vocal solo by Miss Ruth
Lindsay, our music supervisor and
two n umbers by the male quartette
composed of Roy Knorr, Frank
Cloidt, Rev. McClusky and Mr. L. D
Hiatt.
Mr. Hiatt also read a little poem
composed by Mrs. McClusky which
was greatly enjoyed ad which showed
much thought in its preparation, and
which is as follows:

DEMO LAY'S INSTALL
From Wednesday s Pally
Last evening Cuss Chapter of the
Gigantic Land
Fraud Case is
Now Revealed
Sillililiira
Five Held in $500,000 Fraud Case
Which Has Been Uncovered by
Postal Department.
Title of 100,000 acres of Nebras
ka and Iowa land probably has been
clouded by extensive operations of a
land fraud ring in Omaha, according
to Postollice Inspector W. M. Coble,
who returned to Omaha Tuesday from
Ogallala. N'eb., after five men had
b en arrested in connection with
these operations.
Similar operations have !rn con
ducted in Minneapolis, St. Paul, San
Francisco, Los Angeles. Oklahoma
City, Kansas City and Wichita, ac
cording to Inspector Coble.
It was through a tip received in
Omaha that the first arrests were
made, the inspector revealed.
"I had known that lar.:l framl?
were being carried on on a consid
erable scale here in Omaha ami else
where for more than a year." reJated
Inspector Coble. "I determined tc
crack. the case sooner or later.
Cut P.ate Prices.
"For a time I was discouraged,
knew the manner in which the
frauds were practiced. Under ficti
tious names those perpetrating t
fraud would write to abstractors and
get abstracts on land. They would
then obtain blank deeds, fill out r.
description of the land, forge the
line of the real owner and deed
the land to themselves, using a fake
notary seal.
"They were then in a position to
sell the land at cut rate prices, it
having cost them nothing to begin
with. Th y would attach the fake
deed to the abstract. The real owner
f the land would know nothing cf
the fraud, and in scores of rasni
records show that the real owner has
Ik-posed of his property, when as v.
matter of fact he knew nothing about
it.
Bought am'. Traded.
"In scores of other cases persons
have bought or traded for the s-pur-
ious deeds an 1 lived on land which
OeMolav held their installation of i they really didn't own. These spur-
the newly elected olficers for the en
suing term and a very pleasing num
ber of the young men were present
to attend the session of the chapter
and witness the work in installation.

ious deeds aIo were used to sell
mortgages. For instance. W. T. Gra
ham, an Omaha real estate m:in hold"
such a mortgage, although he prob
ably doesnt's know it.
"Carl S If. an Omaha attorney
traded his Colorado land holding; for
a spurious deed to land in Missouri.
I have the deed in my office. These
are just examples of how even smart
men were fooled.
"I finally wrote to postmasters in
county s ;:ts in Nebraska, and obtain
ed the names cf abstractors and ask
ed them to notify me when person
unknown to them asked for abstractr
on land."
. Tip Leads to Arrests.
It was through a tip from an out
state abstractor, that Inspector Coble
got his first definite clue in the case
he snys. The abstractor had received
a request for an abstract from a men
who got ins mail at the general de
livery window. A federal officer fol
lowed this man.
"The trail finally led to a renuez
vous at S0' South Twenty-sixth ave
nue." said Mr. Coble. "This sec met;
to be a meeting place for the group!
in Omaha, although the woman run-'
nir.g the p!n'e was not involved." !
The inspector related how be .and
o'her agents fallowed lh-. five men
arrested though Cohnnbu:; to Grand
I.-iand. then to North Platte, and
finally to Ogallala, where the arrest? ;
occurred. J
100 Deeds Evidence. j
"I have about J00 spurious deed.
right here in my grip." proudly an- ;
nounei d Inspector Coble, patting hi.-;
gladstone. j
"I tlon't know whether or r.ot the :
operations in land frauds nere are
Iniked up with those in otner cities
Rut I do know that there was uni
formity in methods." j
Coble credits Isaac Konecky, for-:
mer deputy sheriff, with being a great
help in "checking" the case. i
From 12 to 15 men are involved
in the operations, postal inspector?

cago to Seattle, and involve titles tc
