loading chute* and pens for truck
etockq expected to be the most con
venient In the country.
The old cattle pavilion, where
numerous sales of pure bred cattle
were held, will be razed this week
to make way for erection of the new
pens. The pavilion was built 20 years
ago end was referred to as Fort Ken
yon In honor of W. J. Kenyon, who
was general manager of the yards at
that time.
Eight new unloading chutes end
600 trench pens, which will be rected
at this point, will be able to handle
eight truckloads of stock at the same

livestock shipments by trusk, as truck
chutes now are scattered all over the
yards. Officials of the yard company

livestock arriving by truck.
8ale* of pure bred cattle in the
future will be held In the horse barns
and a pavilion to take the place of
Fort Kenyon will not be erected.

Thirty-one years ago he was work
ing in New Tork city, when oppor
tunity knocked loudly at his door.
This opportunity, he relates, was an
invitation to go west and grow up
with the country. He had been look
ing westward with wistful eyes, so
when the chance came, he was in a
state of mind that favored the oc
casion.
He came to Omaha and organized
the company of which he Is now the
directing officer. From his first con
tact with business in Omaha he ob
served a policy of fair dealing.
Mr. Wilhelm Is president of Or
chard & Wilhelm Mattress Co. and of
the Orchard & Wilhelm Furniture
factory of this city. He Is a charter
member of the Knights of Ak-Sar
Ben and served on the board of gov
ernors of this organization for three
years, 1906 to 1908.
Ha haa always been ready to sup
port Ak-Sar-Ben In Us activities as he
has supported other organizations for
the promotion of Omaha’s interests.
Hs is a member of the executive
committee of the Chamber of Com
merce and was president of the
chamber In 1907. His counsel has
been sought on many occasions by
committees of the Chamber of Com
merce.
Mr. Wilhelm has been a director
of the Metropolitan Utilities district
for 10 years, serving as chairman of
the board during part of his service.
He Is familiar with much of the de
tail work of the municipal water, gas

worker, always keeping In mind the
thought that every business man
should boost his home town along
with his business. Mr. Wilhelm has
100 per cent faith in Omaha. He has

shows no signs of letting down.

Ex-Nebraskan Takes Job Mims Pay;
Now Sales Chief of Giant Movie Firm
Six years ago he accepted a Job
without wages to enter thg servlre of
the Famous Players Film Company.
Today Sidney R. Kent. 87, formerly
of Lincoln, Neb., is In complete charge
of sales and distribution In theUnlted
States and Canada for one of the
largest motion picture concerns in
the world, the Famous Players-Lasky
corporation.
Kent lg a member of the board of
directors of the company and the
right-hand man of Adolph Zukor, the
man who refused him a salary when
he first applied for work.
In 1912 Kent was a salesman for
the American Druggists’ Syndicate
at $50 a week. Jle was made assis
tant sales manager three months
later. From that position he soon
became assistant president.
He left the syndicate to break into
the movies.
Hia aim has been to bring to the
movie transactions those same com
mon-sense methods prevalent in mod
ern busineaa.
“It's better to soft pedal the money
part of a job-seeking Interview,” ad
vises Kent.
"One of the first things I ask a
man coming to me for a Job is, ‘Why
do you Want to work for us rather
than some other company?’ Most of
them can't give a good answer to
that.
"The chap I like is the one who
makes me pay more because he pro
duces results.”
TJnlted States money is now used
almost entirely in Panama.
