Such work as this tho company has an- 1' nounced It wlli maintain, buying and building apartment, houses, business blocks, homes and public buildings with j the money of the many small investors ! who will bo taken Into the lnvestlngs on shares at l par value. The corporation Is capitalized for $500, 0(0, which Is divided Into COO.OOO shares, of which SSTiO.OQO represents preferred stock. After these dividends have been paid on the preferred stock, the direct ors are empowered to apply any surpluf net earnings to tho payment of dividends as they find best, divided CO per cent pro rata among holders of "preferred stock and the remaining 60 per cent distributed pro rata to holders of the common stock of the corporation.

His being able to purchase moro than a third Interest In the old Woodmen of the World building, which was bought recently for I16S.0O), Harry Wolf attrlb utes to the paying quality of Omaha real estate Investing. Right years ago Wolf came to Omaha practically penniless. He worked until he had saved $200 and with that onount he made hlH first payment on three cottuges at Twenty-sixth and Ohio streets, then valued at $1,000. On this, his very first Investment, he made $700 profit, selling the houses after repairing them. That was Wolfs first step In Omaha now he Is the part owner of the old Woodmen of the World building, which Is to bo remodeled Into a hotel, and land lord of a COO-ocre farm In Sarpy coilnty valued at $25,000, besides numerous prop erty holdings in tho Oma,mi retail district THREE WOULD BE PRESIDENT Holovtchiner Will Meet with Opposi tion for Re-Election. real csts.ttr' and he has kept Kolaf until YEARLY MODELS GIVEN UP BY CARTERCAR COMPANY "The Cartercar company does not pro duce yearly models because we do not think such a plan Is fair to the owners. Just as soon ns a new model appea" there is crtnln to be a useless and very unreasonable depreciation In t(io value of the cars In use." This Is the state ment of II. It. Iladford, general manager of tho Cartercar compuny, at Potitlar, Mich. The Cartercar company does nut produce yearly models and all Improve ments are made Just as soon as the en gineers are convinced of their super iority. "Suppose a man who owns & horse and carriage had to buy a new outfit each year," continued Mr. Iladford, "certainly It would be ridiculous. Tho same Is true of the motor car. A few years ago, however, there was such re markuble progress being made In auto mobile designing that new models were almost a necessity, but now I do not see where thero Is very much room for Im provement In the modern motor car."' LINEUP OF BOARD IS UNCERTAIN Richardson nnd William. Are lltith rnndldu.tr. for the Offlre Three Member. Hold Unt il nor of 1'ovrrr, I)r l Tfnlnvntrlilrtr. nronlilttnt of tho Board of Education, who 'has announced his cahdiducy for re-election, has run into an unforeseen difficulty, The doctor went forth during tho political campaign and lent aid to It, F. Williams of the First ward, a democrat, who was running in opposition to W. A. Khlers. republican, on tho supposition that Williams would support him for president ana ivuiers would not. Ilolovotchlner approached Williams on th .tihlfirt .ml runibr Is that the First ward democrat took the matter under con sideration until ho felt around ana xouna the sentiment of the board on his own candidacy, for It Is understood that he will run for the presidency If he believes he can. secure any support, ' And so Ilolovotchlner has, temporarily, cut down by one the number of votes he expects to secuiu on the ballot for president. I James Richardson of the finance com mittee Is also u candidate for president of tho board. Ho will be supported by tho antl-Holovotchiner members, whosa number Is now uncertain. J. F. Taggart, Judge W. A. Foster and another member may hold the balance of power when the case comes to a vote, as they are about the only members of the twelve who are not affiliated with one party or the other, or, not being; af filiated, have indicated about how they wilt vote on the presidency.
