“Doing the Stroll”
—.- - RICHARD BERNET STANLEY -
BEAU BRUM .WELL—
The one and only men’s club that
is full of action at all times, gave
their yearly event at the Dream
land Hall. Such a wonderful turn
out and everything went on as pre
arranged. The members of the
club left no stones unturned for the
success of their affair from the
looks of those beautiful corsages—
the florists in town sincerely wish
that all dances were formal affairs.
Well I guess the Beau Brummells
will just about wind up their form
al affairs for the season. All the
the clubs are now looking forward
for next year, for a bigger and bet
ter entertainment, but first let’s
all heap praise upon all the clubs
for their activities during the year.
The Club members are now busy
figuring how to replenish their
treasure for the coming season—
Good luck and may success greet
you on every corner.

one of the biggest style revues in
town ever pulled. Just watch for
the date and place and be sure and
don’t miss, because you will be sor
ry for a long time to come. Just
a word to the wise,—the Presid^t
Julia Williams and the financial
sec’y. Thearis Taylor and Sec’y Lu
cille Irvin also that erstwhile and
busy reporter Mrs. Leola Jones and
other executive officers of the club
are preparing a gigantic style re
vue. So don’t say I didn’t tell you
next month.
PEACE MAKER—
A couple of matrons agreed to
disagree on North 24th St., last
Saturday night about a couple of
seats from Mr. Polly Gordon’s.
Just as the larger of the two be
gan to get a half nelson on the
smaller one, up steps Mr. Jordon—
says he break it up, break it up I
say. Good old Polly. One of the
large girls complains that she got
bit on the cheek,—the large one.
From where I was standing, the
little one wasn’t tall enough to
reach her cheek with her teeth.
What puzzles everyone who saw
the scrap is wondering where Pol
ly got the lipstick on his cheeks and
lips or did Polly do the Mayhem.—
Something funny somewhere. Oh
yes, the girls started about whose
hair the other girl was wearing.
The tall one accused the little one
of buying or borrowing the hair,
she was wearing. Sounds kinder
funny, eh! Borrowing hair—one
never knows, does one—funny old
world!!
SAY YOU FELLOWS—
You must buy some ciggies. Some
time you almost got caught kidnap
ping that man’s package Saturday
night. I know if he had caught
you—you was only joking, which
you were joking. Are you ashame
to pull out that granger twist. Af
ter all, it’s yours if you like Grang
er that's your business. But I ad
mit it’s rather strong to roll into a
fag specially at the Blueroom. I
ain’t telling who you are at this
time, but when I come down where
you work, you must buy me a Coca
Cola or give me one on the House.
Lee Washington is my friend. He
doesn’t mind. 1 will be down be
tween 10:30 a. m. and 2:30 p. m.
Now remember 1 will expose you if
you don’t. Your friend—RBS.
OPEN CONFESSION—
Dearest Helen:—
I won’t be able to come over Sun
day as I have to allow sohrty a
chance and I have to play Shorty
; awhile. Hope you don’t feel hurt
but above all Shorty must be tak
en care of at 'ill times.
Lovingly yours,
Paul.
This letter was written by one of
our local boys. But you mustn’t
leave such important stuff lying a
round kid! May be one of your
other flames might night like it or
may get the wrong idea—of course
I know you were only foolin’ when
you mention Shorty, because you
are the only one—maybe .
RABES BUFFETT
Breeze into Rabes Sunday night
looking the situation over. Seen
quite a few old timers still whoop
ing them up. Frank the Bar-keep
still giving that fast service as us
ual. Somehow Rabes’ got a fol
lowing that hardly goes any other
place. Well the old saying is if
you treat ’em right, they’ll stick by
you. Looked in the show case over
in the lunch room-—Jim Bell bad a
| large baked ham, sure looked good
to me—in fact that hani looked
good to anybody regardless if they
were not hungry. Rabes wants all
the boys to drop around sometime
also the ladies—lots of booths for
all.

AMERICAN farm products pur
chased by the brewing Indus
.ry since beer’s relegalization in
1933 have reached a total of 25 bil
lion pounds, enough to fill a freight
train extending from Los Angeles
to Detroit.
More than three million acres of
farm land must be cultivated each
year to raise tha billions of pounds
of barley, corn, rice and hops for
which brewers pay approximately
$100,000,000 annually.
In 1939 alone nearly four billion
pounds of these products were used
to make the 55,191,103 barrels of
beer, which the United States Bu
reau of Internal Revenue reports
were produced last year.
These are among the develop
ments recorded by the United
Brewers Industrial Foundation In
Its annual survey of the brewing
Industry.
The past year also witnessed
rapid expansion of the industry’s
program of active cooperation with
local law enforcement officials to
at the end of this year.
Although active in civic affairs
and prominent in the legal frater
nity of the city and state since his
graduation in 1907 from the college
of law, Creighton University, Mr.
Leary never before has been a can
didate for public office. Since
1913 he has been legal counsel for
the Omaha Catholic diocese and in
1931 the rank of Knight, Order of
St. Gregory, was conferred upon
him by Pope Pius XI for "outstand

in which Industry committees dedi

Similar programs are to be in

the coming year.
Direct taxes collected on the 1939
sale of beer totaled $411,596,780 and
averaged $7.80 per barrel on the
52,768,818 barrels withdrawn for
sale. This revenue is ear-marked

highly commended by members of
the bar and business and profession

Linn P. Campbell, 61, president
since 1934 of Byron Reed Company,

with which he has been actively
connected for 35 years, is a repub

A resident of Omaha since 1900
and a graduate of Omaha’s public
schools, Mr. Campbell’s long asso

Vegetable Laxative
Has Important Points
Most people want a laxative to
do three things: (1) act punctually
(2) act thoroughly, (3) act gently.
Here’s one that usually fills all
three requirements when the easy
directions are followed. It’s an all
vegetable product whose principal
ingredient has medical recognition
as an “intestinal tonic-laxative.”
That s the ingredient which en
ables BLACK-DRAUGHT to help
tone lazy bowel muscles. It is the
main reason for the satisfying re
lief from constipation that gener
ally follows next morning when
BLACK -DRAUGHT is taken at
bedtime. The millions of packag
es used are proof of its merit.
