SAY, WHAT would we In Omaha do without the country clubs to
furnish summer diversion?
Really, I would not risk a guess; but I know that in these
days the country clubs are the social centers, and that everybody
who pretends to be anybody belongs to one or more of them.
To accommodate one another without conflict, the clubs have tried
to select different days for the weekly dancing parties Tuesday at the
;, Happy Hollow, Wedensday at the Field club, Friday at the Seymour
" Park, Saturday at the Country club so those who want to keep a-going
- all the time can make a regular circuit of them all.
Country club society is the savior of swelldom during the summer
months. I don't know anything else that would induce lazy folks to
" spruce up, and try to make themselves look pretty t and presentable.
. iWhen the men show themselves willing to doff their-worklng clothes and
don outing togs, why the women would seem like unappreciative ingrates
if they didn't put on a few frills themselves.
- -. That reminds me of a good story perpetrated by one of the infant
prodigies of a well known family who happened in on his grandmother
in the West Farnam district while she was dding her hair:
"Grandma, Where's the rat?" queried the curious codger.
. "Why, boy," she replied indignantly, "we don't have rats running
around our house." ' y '
"I don't mean. that, kind of a rat. I mean the rat you put on your
head like.ymother.", v . ' 7
"Oh,; came the answer with a relieved expression, "grandma never
uses a rat in her hair." ; .
'Then, grandma, you can't go to the Country club," was the kiddo's
crusher.-' -v ' '' ' . . ;

Nephew's Honor Puts M'Grew
in Between
If you should wander into the Live
Stock National bunk these days you will
perceive a melancholy looking individual
hunched up in a corner of the private
office of the bank. He holds a telegram
in his hand and his gaze is directed to
wards the plains of the Sunflower state.
The man is C. F. McGrew, president of
the Live Stock National bank, and a
loyal adherent of the republican party
and President Taft. The telegram is a
message from Kansas announcing the
nomination of Arthur Capper as guberna
torial nominee on fthe bull moose ticket
of Kansas state.
The dubious expression upon President
McGrew's mobile countenance Is super
Induced by the knowledge that his most
avuncular sentiments have been outraged
by the perverse political course of his
favorite nephew, who in all probability
will be the next governor of Kansas.
Not that President McGrew objects to
governors. To have a governor attached
to the family tree, is almost as great an
honor as having a blue ribbon banker
which Mr. McGrew is; also it is more
respectable than being a mere editor,
which, until his nomination, Mr. Capper
was. . v-- .

But nevertheless the Honorable Arthur
Capper of Kansas is an example of way
ward youth, politically speaking, from
the viewpoint of his uncle. So it " hap
pened that when the Honorable Arthu;
Capper laid down his editorial pen one
day and sent word that he would go out
and bring home a nomination for gover
nor of Kansas his Omaha relative sat
down and wrote his commendation of the
young man's course. To be sure of the
political orthodxy of his nephew, how
ever, Mr. McGrew Impressed upon I113
stalwart nephew some' of the sacred and
cardinal principles' of true republicanism.
Not trusting to Kansas propriety of poli
tics Mr. McGrew insisted that President
William Howard Taft was the nominee of
the republican party and the best presi
dent who has ever sat In the chair of
George Washington. Incidentally he also
Intimated to his dear nephew that Presi
dent Taft was his choice for the presi
dency. And now after his labor and
tears, politically speaking, Nephew
Arthur Capper has taken up with those
"bad bull mooscrs." What wonder there
fore that C. F. McGrew sits in his private
office hesitating whether to rejoice or to
lament over his "nephew's advance on
the road to fame.
