always on the job in Serving Par

The Fontenelle hotel waiters are
looking fo ra very large full busi
ness and when you see them on
North 24th St. in their late model
cars you would think they work in
New York as their actions speak
louder than wtords as they make
rapid steps and walk fast and make
business good t all the stores. The
salesmen are very careful in giving
them service to avoid a mistake.
Mr. C. C. Jones and the crew in.
the Cottonwood room at the Black

taking care of the large crowds
and we all know good service pro

floor and carries a heavy loaded
tray high in the air.
Mr. Ed Lee the athletic Club
headwaiter was talking with this
writer during his vacaton and told
all of us he was enjoyng a much
needed rest. Mr. Lee told this
writer some years ago he was a
class mate of Dr. Thomkins the
recorder of deeds in Washington,
D. C., and we know by that good
scholars are top men at all times
and we should all take our hats
off to such men who are out in
front.
Flash the Omaha Guide contin

the way they get out the news.
Now why don’t all of us take on©
years subscription and keep the

dollars fo rone year, now what do
you say about it.
Mr. Johnnie Fleming and the
Country Club boys are going over
big and as they are in the home
stretch we are quite sure they will
double their efforts to give satis
faction as Mr. Donavan and Mr.
Simpson, Mr. Kennedy and Mr.
Hayes will continue to move for
ward in completing a good job for
the summer—and Mr. Lambert can
make a Tom Collins or a whiskey
sour or an fashion toddy or a Alex
ander Cocktail in double quick
time.
Mr. Harold the double header
musician and head waiter and Mr.
Chester Hodges and Mr. Jack
White are all about ten pounds
heavier, so we all can see what
fresh air and morning rides to
work does for the boys.
This writer shall visit with the
Streamlined Chef Cook, Mr. John
Rotello who is a very fine gentle
man and all round good fellow and

Service.
Mr. John Evans is just as pleas
ant as ever and carries a business
look on his face at all times and
we 11 know1 what good one can do
when their actions are of that kind
OLD LANDMARK RAZED AT
LINCOLN U. (MO.
A necessary sacrifice to prog
ress was completed last week at
Lincoln University with the clear
ing of the area of the campus oc
cupied for thirty-eight years by
BarnestKrekel Hall, freshman wo
man’s dormitory, until last year,
when the modernistic Anthony
Hall was erected on the east cam
pus and the razing of the old dor
mitory was begun. The first sec
tion of Barnes-Krekel was erected
in 1893J. additions were made in
1902. and alterations of one kind
or another were introduced at var
ious times during its existence
The first portion of the building
was the oldest structure on Lin
coln’s campus. 4,
Barnes-Krekel had served many
diverse purposes during its life
time. At one time girls were hous
ed in one side of the building and
young men in the other; the
school’s cafeteria, classrooms and
the president’s home were also
housed there in those early days.
In 1940 the three-story brick and
stone building housed in addition
to 100 freshman girls—the unver
sity hospital and the laboratory
high schools’s Home Economics
department. The large recration
room on the basement floor of
Barnes-Krekel was a favorite ga
thering place for Lincoln students
during their leisure time-scene of
scores of the general socials and
Greek-letter dances that are such
an important part of social life.
The razing of Barnes-Krekel is
part of a dampus improvement
program which is in its second
year. A recent $70,000 WPA pro
ject to Lincoln University is to be
used for completion of this pro
gram. Beautification of the
twenty-acre campus is to be effec
ted by roadbuilding and repair,
and by landscaping. Mr. G- Rob
ert Cotton, head of the Unive*
sity’s Mechanic Arts department
will supervise the entire impro
vement project Mr. C. E. Dick
erson, another member of this de
partment and a specialist in land
scape architecture, will direct the
landscaping activities.
MAINSPRING
j ‘‘For the first time in years,”
i writes William R. Kuhns, in Bank
ing, “the butcher, baker, and can
dlestick maker, their sisters, cous
ins and aunts are beginning to dis
cover what a fine assortment of
useful and unsuspected items their
bank has for sale.”
Many of us used to think of
banks as institutions which were
only interested in “big money'”
operations and which had little to
offer the ordinary man. oTday, the
typical bank is actively seeking
accounts of all sizes—and it offers
as cordial a welcome to the legit
imate borrower who nfeeds a few
hundred dollars as it does to the
borrower who needs tens of thous
ands. It finances the purchase of
automobiles and homes.
Today the banks are carrying on
still another big job—the sale of
defense loan securities. It is esti
mated that more than $100,000,000
worth of these bonds and stamps
must be sold to the public each
week if the Treasury is to avoid
further inflationary sales of gov
ernment securities to the banks.
Private banking is again proving
that it is one of the mainsprings
that keeps this country going.
“It is illusory to suppose thaf
the cost of living can be held down
if wages continue to advance.”—
The New York Times.
Mr. and Mrs. Carl King of 280!
Ohio St, were blessed with a babj
girl.

2-Way Help for
WOMEN!
What should a woman do who is
run-down, suffering from function
al discomforts, such as headaches,
nervousness or cramp-like pain ?
The experience of women by thou
ands answers. “Take CARDUI!”
For CARDUI may help you in two
ways: Many who begin three days
befire “the time” and take it as
directed, find it helps relieve pain.
Then taken by directions as a ton
ic, CARDUI usually helps stimu
late appetite, increase the flow ot
digestive juice, and so improve di
gestion.
Thus it helps to build energy and
strength and reduce periodic dis
tress for many. 61 years of popu
larity invite confidence in CAR
DUI.
