Ferrie Home South of This City,
But Frightened Away,
From Saturday's Daily
Last night near the midnight
hour, Mfs. E. J. Ferrie, residing
south of this city along ihghway No.
75, was aroused by the sound of a
car approaching along the roadway
in the yard and looking out saw the
lights of the car in the farm yard
road. She had gotten up and started
out Into the yard, thinking it was
someone in trouble, but as she drew
near the Ecene she caw two men in
the roadway and who started toward
where the car was parked some dis
tance away, having been driven some
distance from the roadway north, the
driver .going on the wrong side of
the road and parking the car. Mrs.
Ferrie reached the vicinity of the
car but was unable to see the num
ber owing to the fact that the lights
were turned off on th? car and the
flshlight that she carried was not
strong enough to see the number
plates of the car. The men stated that
they were from Fort Crook and were
soldiers but later on being question
ed by Mrs. Ferrie they stated that
they were from Omaha. Mr. Ferrie
laetr appeared on the scene and at
which the driver of the car, stepped
on the gas and drove away before
the car number could be secured.
The description of the three men
in the party given by Mrs. Ferrie to
the office of Sheriff Homer Sylvester
was excellent and should aid in the
identification of the men if they are
found trying to raid other places.
One man was reported as being in
the neighborhood of six feet two
inches, light complexion, weighing
about 1S5 pounds, while the second
man on the outside of the car was
reported as about five feet four
inches, dark complexion and with
sleek black hair. Both of these men
wore golf pants and sleeveless
sweaters and were hatless.
The man seated in the car and
driving could not be seen as well but
apparently had dark trousers and
white shirt and wore a straw hat.
The Ferrie family have suffered
the loss of chickens and gasoline sev
eral times in the last months and
it is thought that the party may have
planned another raid on the place
had not Mrs. Ferrie aroused and
drove them away.
TO EXCHANGE SERVICES
Omaha. Business Managers M. B.
Park3 and Mrs. E. J. Wolcott an
nounced that the. "Omaha co-operative
exchange" will be formally pre
sented to the public here Thursday
night.
Under this plan, which has been
operating experimentally a short
time, the doctor who needs patients,
groceries, auto repairs and plumber
services, or Mr. "X" and Mr. "Y,"
who have services or commodities
which they can give or need, but no
money, would be able to have some
of these needs filed. As Mr. Parks
explained it: j
"A dentist was one of the first to
join. He offered $200 worth of serv
ice and was given credit for that
amount. The dentist needed a paint
er at his home. This painter had a
sister who needed dental work."
The group believes this will prove
a practical plan for effecting that
long sought teamwork between money
shy farmers and city laborers.
"The exchange will handle all
kinds of professional services, ar
tistic talent, labor and material prod
ucts," the managers said.

WRECK PIANO "FOE FUN"
Omaha, June 16. It was all good
clean fun when the boys hacked the
piano with axes, but it provided some
few tense moments. The annual out
ing cf the Omaha Executives associa
tion was the setting. One featura
was a vocal by Leslie J. Strain in
the clubhouse at the Lakewood club.
Scattered boos greeted the singing.
When Strain continued three huskies
marched into the rcom and attacked
the piano with axer.. smashing it to
bits. Sometime later, it was learned
that the entertainment committee
had paid 55 for the piano, and had
n.vved it into the club on the sly in
place of the regular piano.
