I have alwaya been proud of the ability of the women of Omaha to do things, of the splendid spirit of co operation on the part of the men of the city, of the press In our or ganization and of the large circle of friends that have by their glfta made our beautiful building possible. Some buildings have been given by one or two people aa memorial gifts, ours was the gift of 6.0U) people. The work In Omaha haa Its points of weakness, however; there Is need of a Junior department with the secretary giving f ill time to the younger girls, more money to carry out plans of extension work, more summer outings and plans for girls. We believe that If the debt resting on the building can be paid off a really great and wonderful work can be done. It means much to surrounding cities and rural communities that Omaha with Its splendid association work so modestly begun and so gloriously carried on during the pant twenty years stands aa "a city that la set on a hill whose light cannot be hid." 1 .i)ar- ' c!

JA3nr AEE WEARING MEDALS I'alqae Eatertalamtati Arc Glrea at Several Towns A Ion the Host. State le Lookl.g Moat Froaperoae. There were ao many pleasing Incidents In connection with the trade boosters' ex cursion last week that members of the party are still telling their friends about them. The occurrences of the week have made such a lasting impression that the boosters found It difficult Monday to settle back Into the routine of duty. "One could not come back from such a trip without feeling that Nebraska Is the best state In the union." says Penn P. Fodrea. the generalissimo of trade boost ing spielers. "We saw evidences of It everywhere, and we come back with con fidence of a greater future than ever. It waa marvelous to eee. with our own eyea tha signs of prosperity that werej revealed to ua In every section of the state through which wa passed." Tha greatest demonstration of the week waa at Shelton. Considering the size of the town, more people turned out there to greet the excursionists than In any place visited. F. D. Reed, editor of the Shelton Olpper, showed tha spirit that existed there by getting out a special edition in honor of the Boosters. The paper waa brimful of crisp Omaha news and lavish words of welcome. On the day of the visit there waa a horse show In progress there, and more fine anlmala were seen than have ever been collected In Nebraska outside of Omaha. A feature of the day waa the contest conducted by Editor Reed to determine who waa the most popular man among the visitors. Coupons were printed In hla paper, and these, properly filled out, represented votes. Tha winner of the conteat waa W. J. Mount of the Standard Bridge company. Clafe Gets LovlaaT Can. Grand Island, too, did the handsome thing, presenting the Commercial club with an elegant silver loving cup. A novelty of similar nature was met at David City, where the club members were presented with the "open door" of the city. It was a real, full-slxed door, appropriately lettered. It will be given a prominent place In the Commercial club rooms. The same apirlt ahown at theee two places waa demon strated In various forma at practically every atop along the line. Jake Spelsberger waa the life of the party from start to finish, and be waa pre sented with a gold medal in recognition of being tha best scout on the train. The presentation waa made by Penn P. Fodrea, In one of hla fine extemporaneous talka, and Splesberger made an unuauaily clever response. Will A. Campbell of the publicity bureau was not with the excursionists during the entire week, but he found time to visit eighty newspapers, make several talka during the day and keep the wlrea hot with news atuff sent to the Omaha papers. Mr. Campbell says that editors are coming from all parts of the state In large numbers to attend the Press aaaoclation convention next week.

Omaha 21 Kymphiis Wnrkeuff, Omaha v 20 aarnuente Moser, Omaha is After numerous conferences between members of the city council and officials of the Omaha Gas company an understand ing has been reached whereby the litiga tion over street lighting for the last five years can be settled on a compromise basis. All that remains to consummate the deal Is for the members of the council to ap prove the steps that have been taken by a committee, In which members of the lighting committee were active. The basis of settlement which the Omaha Gas company Is said to be willing to abide by is S2S per year per lamp and 2 per cent Interest on all back claims. This amount ' is the one that members of the council will be asked to approve. A resolution embodying this plan of set tlement will be Introduced Into the council soon. Some members of the council antici pate action Monday afternoon. Should the compromise plan go through the city will confers Judgmmt In this amount, and the Omaha Gas company will receipt In full for all claims to the first of the year. "Little difference exists between the com mittee and the gas company," said Frank Hamilton, president of the gas company, Monday morning. "A committee frcm the council called on me before I went east, and while we did not come to any definite terms we came nearer to getting together than ever before. "If the claims are compromised It will he for more than $25 per lamp. I should not be surprised if the litigation would b settled without going to court."
