"Medlco-legal Defen" was the subject
of a brief address by .1. U- Sundean of
Wahoo. attorney for the Nebraska Plate
Medical association, before the house of
delegates Wednesday morning.
The address was the result of a spirited
discussion heid at the liK'S meeting of the
association, when Mr. Sundean was asked
to prepare a paper to be read at this
meeting.
! The trend of Mr. Sundean's address was
to commend the association- In lis deter
mination to assist in the defense of mal
practice charges against member of th
association. He suggested the closest In
vestigation of all such charges, first, to
ascertain their truth or falsity and then to
proceed accordingly. ,
""Recognized physicians nf good standing
constitute the best citlsens of their re
spective communities." said he, "and no
citizens, as a class, are more distinguished
for their probity, Integrity and Intelligence
tluin they. The reputation of a physician
is Mils principal asset and to attack It'
through frivolous charges of Inefficiency
s a berlous proposition, ami It Is a duty
that the association owes to itself to de
fend Its members against aspersions cast
upon their professional reputation."
A standing vote of thanks was extended
Mr. Sundean for his address.

ment," was the subject of a paper by Dr.

persons subject to asthmatic conditions.
He .advised the use of anti-toxins as
.remedial treatment.
Another cause of hay fever, was the
proximity of horses., Borne subjects ad
dicted to hay fever could not go near a
stable but their aliment would be greatly
aggravated.
Three papers were read during th fore
noon In which various forms of rheuma
tism were discussed. Dr. Paul O. Woolley

VALUE OF THE AESTHETIC
Beautiful tuts It in Figure in Com
mercial l.lfe of City, Says
Hrogan.
V. A. Brogan nespoke a more beautiful
Omaha at the Wednesday noon meeting of
the Omaha Real Eatatn exchange. The
speaker, whose theme was 'The Commercial
Value of the Beautiful." pointed out that
in (hooping a city for a home more and
more people are being influenced now
adays by aesthetic considerations; that
while the' great majority would continue In
be governed1 on exclusively practical
grounds, men such as district managers of
departments, had a choice at hand, and so
also people retired from active life. In
the race between the sister cities of the
middle west for supremacy physical at
tractiveness, he said, would pluy a highly

White Hats for
Trade Excursion
Polite Society Lids Will Cover Heads
Of the Trade Excursionists
to Iowa.
While cowboy hats won't go in low a. I lie
trade excursionists who leave May 17, for
a week's trip through the western part of
the stale, will wear white hats.
The hats will be snow while, sort of po
lite society effect, turned down a little In
front, just such fine white felt crushers as
are worn on outings or on the sereet. They
will have red bands, ' distinguishing
Omahans from Iowans In every town
where the excursion stops.
This Ides, according to Clarke Colt,
serves a two or three fold purpose. There
will be so many white hats that there will
be nu mistaking the fact that Omaha takes
a crown on a trade excursion; then they
will show up well In the moving pictures,
and last but not least, prevent misconduct
on the part of members of the party, as
one with a white hat would think of act
ing up with kodaks and moving picture
machines In action.
The party will also have badges which
will be worn by each member, giving
names of firms and individuals.
The siren whistle has been brought home
for the trip. The whistle Is In such demand
It is hard to get It home when it is needed
in OmaJia. Th old tooter did not get un
packed until the Commercial club of Clar
lnda, la., wanted to borrow It to use on
a trip to Red Oak, where a Clarlnda theat
rical company is to give a show.
JUDGE CRAWFORD THINKS
POLICE SHOULD BE BIGGER
He Is Moved lo This Conclusion by Sid
Morgan. fOxperlencr with
a Drank.
"We ought to have bigger policemen, or
else give the email ones big stars." re
marked Police Judge Crawford In court
Wednesday morning.
He was hearing the case of Bert Brown.
X22 Ohio street, who engaged In a wrest
ling match with Emergency Officer Ed
Morgan and came out ingloriously "licked"
Saturday afternoon, when Morgan at
tempted to arrest him on the charge of
being drunk and disorderly.
It evidently was the judge's idea that
drunken men would not attempt to resist
big policemen. Morgan is a lightweight,
but he Is the best wrestler In these parts
for his weight and l as "shown things'" to
many a recalcitrant drunk who didn't want
to jro to jail. When he finished teaching
Brown liow to be good Saturday, the latter
had little claim eitrei to being handsome
or entitled to special privileges.
Brown was discharged In court Wednes
day, after spending some time in Jail and
then being released on bond. The judge
did not attempt to punish him further, al
though testimony was offered to show th.it
he had been drunk and disorderly.
