Smith style show, staged for out of town merchants here for Spring Market week. "Dame fashion has her traditions," declare the managers . r tin- en tertainment. "She does not forget. Now and then slip reverts to tire master fashions of former days anil repeats them. Tire presentation of The Maids of 19T.0’ is based on this tradition—on the belief that some day in a succeeding generation the styles of 1924 will be repeated, per haps In 1950. "As a fitting background for this revue, we present a 1950 scene showing (he river front and the docks when the Missouri river waterway plan has been completed—a step that will mark one of the greatest strides in our history toward the upbuilding of a greater Omaha." Endless Variety. The last hurrying spectator is seated, the orchestra plajs s lilting tone, and a tall, slender gir l cornea down the runway that ts in the M. K. Fmith auditorium. -She is succeeded by another, and another, all clad in the latest styles. The number and variety of costumes are apparently endless. Sport coats, sport dresses, traveling dresses, street dresses, silk dresses, wash dresses, wool dresses, enough dresses for every woman in the audience. The women in the audience hurst into applause, the men, unless they are out-of-town buyers, make sure that their poeketbooks are In a safe place. At last the procession ceases, the curtain is drawn, and r.. .1. F.etg of Burgess-Nash. with Mrs. Helen Hendrikson, step out before it. Borg dives into an enormous suitcase that has been handed to him and pulls out yards and yards of green silk. He rapidly proceeds to encase his model, putting a pin here and there, and In five minutes he has pro duced an evening gown. A dark green fan, a diamond sunburst and pearls complete the picture. Fashion's Evening Robe. Another swoop into the suitcase ami he lias a great .-trip of carmine silk which, under his-fingers, becomes an evening robe for Mrs. Hendrik son. That comes off, then the gown, and with light green silk ire fash ions a pair of pajamas. Berg and Mrs. Hendrikson quit the stage, bowink to the vigorous applause, and the 17 models reappear. The show goes on until the styles change to bathing suits. Seventeen bathing suits of seventeen different colors and seventeen different styles. The music stops. The curtain is again drawn, and the M. E. Smith spring style show has completed its 1924 run. v Arts. Nellie Dean, Hamburg. H. K. Dye, Macedonia. Mr. and Mrs. DeVries, Hospers.

"I'p in our territory the farmers are putting the money they get into their pockets, and for this reason cash business is increasing very rap idly," said J. A. Anderson, Rosebud, S. I). "The prospects for spring and summer business are exceptionally good. The banks are gradually get ting over their slump." "Money is not really easy to get,” remarked O. K.
