Withnell Says
Realty Men Arc
Ones to Beautify
Building- Inspector Urgei that They
Replace Homely Shacki with
Comely Structures.
City Building Inspector Withnell has
some Idess of his own as to tha beat ways
to help tn making Omaha more comely to
look upon.
"It seems to me," says Mr. Withnell,
"that the real eatatt men hold the key
to the situation In their own hands, largely.
Borne of them own or control old, ahaky,
unsanitary sharks that stand on promlent
streets. These they could very well afford
to tear down and replace with modern,
compact and handsome structures, and be
money ahead at the end of a year.
"In a great many cases the real estate
men are agents and advisers for out-of-town
owners who have allowed shanties
of the very worst description to eumber
valuable property close to the heart of
town ever since 1 can remember. There
does not seem to be any good reason why
such property should be longer occupied
with one-atory flretrapa thst are In many
cases almost ready to tumble down. To
say our real estate men could not get ac
tion on their principals to have anti
quated buildings torn down and better ones
built Is to belittle their influence and dis
count tha weight of their advice. Perhaps
concerted effort, resolutely pursued for a
year or so. would have a tremendous Influ
ence towsrd clearing out the eyesores and
putting In their place something good to
look at, and that would, at the aame time
fatten the Incomes of the owners and the
agents."

ognition of his services as president of
the company.
T. J. Mahoney presided and gave review
of the work of bulUlng the Auditorium.
He said many times during the last five
years when the Auditorium found lUelf
without funds to meet Its obligations, Mr.
Nash had borrowed money at the banks
on his pcraonal notes wim no nopes ui
personal reward except the thanka of the
directors and ts community.
Mr. NasH in reply said that many times
during the lsst seven years he felt the
Auditorium waa a tremendous burden, and
If he had consulted his own peraonal de
sires he would have put the burden aside,
but he felt the time would come when tha
people would appreciate the Auditorium,
so he simply kept pegging away until the
building waa completed and out of debt.
In closing. Mr. Nash paid a high tribute
to J. M. Oman, manager of tha Auditorium.
He said that he waa entitled to a world
of credit for his untiring efforts In pro
moting the interests of the Auditorium.

before Mr. Cady's sickness and death, the
proposition was that I should sell out my
Interest, and everything was ready to com
plete a deal of that kind January 1. Later
developments changed the status of affairs,
and, as I was as ready to sell as to buy,
my Interest Is now In the hands of other
parties."

affairs of the company, which has timber
holdings and mills In the south, on the

A SERVICE WORTH
Here is what we me&nt when we alluded to "Request
Maintenance" as pertaining to your home
It is little more than reminding you to form the habit
of notifying us when you are not securing complete sat
isfaction from any of your gas lamps.
We have skilled men assigned solely to this work
They will inspect your lamps, adjust them and, wher.
they find that a new mantle is necessary or any part o'
the lamp needs renewal, they will charge you for these at
the regular retail prices the same that you would pay
for standard goods in any store or at our office. The re
newals will be made only after your approval.
The service costs you nothing.
