Christmas Corsets
Don't overlook this department "when selecting a gift. -
The most beautiful creations in corsets for gift giving arc
.here.- The idea of giving a pretty corset for a Xmas remembrance
is a new idea, and they should prove quite popular as gifts, for
what woman is there who doesn't delight in owning a pretty
: corset. ...
. For the present the high bust and long skirts reign supreme,
and whispers are heard of their continued popularity for Spring.
So the corset you buy now will be just the proper style for spring.
"We fit our corsets and alter them when necessary.
Pries from $3.50 to $20.00 each.
Model fitting rooms with expert fitters always in attendance.
COMING! .Another great special shirt sale Saturday.

I1ILD LABOR 'CONVENTION

MISS ADDAMS AND MR. BLVERID6E TALK

Ertrr Nation la Korope Kmeept
Russia In Protecting
' -Children.
CINCINNATI, Deer I3.-Before the first ,i
session .of. the. child latxr convention ncrn r-
tonight Dr. Felix Adler, chairman of tne
national child labor committee ana pro
fessor of political and social ethics In
Columbia university; spoke on "The At
titude of 8oclty Toward the Child as an
Index of Clvlllxatlon." Prof. Adler spoke
of the Inadeuuac yand Ineffclency of state
laws and urged the enecesslty for a na
tional law to furnish a- background ior
effective state and local activity and make
the enthusiasm of the people contagious
In Its effect on local bodies, thus inducing
greater efforts for the child and a more
glorious future for the republic.
Addresses by Miss Jane Addams of Hull
house, Chicago, and t nlted State Senator
A. J. Beverldge followed.
A resolution was adopted emphasizing the
belief that It Is the duty of the several
states to correct the evils of child labor
In local manifestations, but endorsing
'cordially the principle of the Beyertdge-
Parsons bill for a national child labor law."
Vnlted States Behind Biironr.
Mlas Addams urged . the desirability of
uniform legislation against the evils of child
labor and declared that the census reports
show America behind every European coun
try except Russia insofar as child labor
and Its effects are concerned.
A similar view was taken by Senator
Beverldge,' whov said: ' ' '
When an evtl Is national In Its effect a
national remedy should cure It. It Is a
subject for the Intelligence and consclonce
of the whole American people. Even If
child labor were confined to one state it
would still be a matter for nutlonai con
cern; If W he said that In time the states
shall come to have uniform and excellent
laws, executed everywhere with equal
vigor, the answer Is that If that Impossible
day should ever come It will not dawn for
a generation at least. Meanwhile nun
rirerta of thousands of children will con
tlnne to be murdered and ruined and other
hundreds of thousands will continue to be
spoiled for cltlxenshlp.
We must get down to earnest business
In this sacred cause. We must concentrate
on one plan which will be as effective.-In
Maine aa In South Carolina. We must
rorpe and marshal public opinion and ap
peal to the Intelligence of the American
people. When the moral sentiment of the
nation Is aroused congress will act.

undertake to do for the south port of the

tell In advance how many divisions the
judiciary committee of the house will be
willing to recommend for the western pnrt
of the Mate. We ought to have at the
very least two divisions for the Sixth, else
there would be no object In having any,
while four or five would be better, so that,
should you Judges and the membership

should be nl eased to urge the creation
of two divisions In the south part of the
Sixth district.

Accordingly. I should be nlensed to have
you recommend me, conditioned on what
may succeed in eecuring, two separate
divisions for the south part of the dis
trict, naming the places for. holding of
court In each; also name the boundary
llnea of but one division for the south
part, naming the town aa the phire for
holding of court to be accented if two
places cannot be secured. Possibly you
may feel prompted to recommend three di
visions for the south part of the district,
arftl If so. that shall receive mv favorable
consideration. Of course. It. will not be
requisite that Judicial divisions be mule to
conform to the boundary linfs of congres
sional districts; whatever may best subserve
the convenience of the public should prevail.
The bill would be taken un and nressed
for passage Immediately, except for my
own request, whlrh has been granted, that
the matter shall be deferred until after
the expiration of the holiday recess, so
that I am drslrious of becoming Informed
as to the sentiment of the district as to the
divisions and pIjcps for holding court by
not later than January 1.

FAVORED OXK ALSO SURPRISED
Had Hot Expected to Itecelve the
omlnatl4n.
The announcement of the appointment
of O. K. Paddock as the South Omaha
postmaster waa the topic of general com
ment In South Omaha last night. The
ntws was noised about In the afternoon and
soon received confirmation. Moat people
appeared greatly surprised and were In
clined to think the appointment unusual
to say the least. Abotit the postofflce the
appointment of El L. Howe had been con
sidered settled after he received the tele
gram from Kennedy stating that he waa
to be recommended.
Mr. Howe himself expressed much sur
prise, and the news came to him entirely
without warning.' He expressed regret that
he had allowed himself to count on hla
appointment as certain' but ilirlit ihnt '
such sui prises often are to be .expected.
"Of course-, I would have been pleased to
receive appointment, but have no further
comment to offer on the appointment of
Mr. Puddock at present." '
Marry of the business men of he city
did not know that Mr. Paddock desired
the position, nor that he had been at any
time-a candidate. While the appointment
of Mr. Howe appeared certain, .many took
occasion to expres much satisfaction.
Mr. Paddock Is a veteran of the civil
war and la a well-known commission man
at-the South Omaha Live Stock exchange.
He is the senior partner In the firm. of
Paddock, Cbtner & lattm. 'He is a man
of good appearance, and i ix'rsonally much
respected. He haa, however, kept aloof
from public affairs and has had little to
do with South Omaha pontics. His ex
pression was simply 6ne or satisfaction
as to tie h6hor- conferred, on him. with
possibly quite ns much surprise as that'
expressed by the others. He did not dis
cuss the influences which won' him the
appointment. ' '
He has resided In South Omaha: fef twenty
years and to one of -the veteran, coniniis
slon men. He Is 68 years of age, 'has a
wife and five children and is in moderate
circumstances. When Informed over the
telephone by The Bee that her husband had'
been appointed postmaster, Mrs. Paddock
said: ' '
"Well, that nearly takes my breath away.
It waa the least of our' expectations. Of
course, Mr.' Paddock was a candidate fo,r
the t fflce, - but was very' quiet about U.
This la the first news of the appointment
1 have received, an.tllf he has recelved-any
I 'do not know it. Of course he will be
