AMES TO PLAYJAYHAWKIJRS
Basket Ball Quintet Leaves Soon to
Try Its Mettle.
EIGHT MEN TO MAKE TRIP
lCnnan Player Are Anionic Mont
Expert In Clan, Finishing SeeontI
Year Alto, and Expect to
Pnt Un Swift llnttle.
AMES, la.,, Jan. 4. (Speclul.) Tuesday
night Coach Hubbard nnd his first
selection for a varsity squad, eight men,
will go to Lawrence to show tho veteran
Jayhawkcr basket ball team the stuff
they aro made of. Tho Cyclonps take on
Kansas university for two Bumes Wednes
day and Thursday. On the following
Friday and Saturday they will discuss
the points of tho sumo with the Kansas
Ags at Manhattan, and on Monday and
Tuesday of the ensuing; week they will
battlo the Missouri Timers at Columbia,
then returning for a lay-off of consider
able duration.
While Coach Hubbard has not yet an
nounced the personnel of the squad which
heVvlU take on the tour southward, it Is
practically certain that the eight men
who ara to go shall be: Wormhoudt.
Rodger. Dwell and Sweeney, forwards;
Holmes, center; Captain Hansell and
JIarpcl, guards, and either Kellcy or
I'orterfield ua tho extra man. Kclley has
been showing' very favorably as a guard
and Porterfield is strong at the baskets,
making a hard- and difficult-to-settle
fight for tho opportunity to make tho
trip. Kclley got some scholastic expe
rience In the basket game nt Cedar Rap
ids High and I'orterfield gathered some
training on the Waterloo High squad,
Holmes, the Sioux City High star basket
shooter, varsity foot ball lineman and
exceptional prep basket ball player, hove
In from Sioux City Wednesday to force
n'n Issue as far as he Is concerned In
the contest for the center's position.
"Wednesday was his first time to show up
for varsity basket ball because of a
mashed hand which he had received in
tho Drake-Ames foot fall combat. Tho
hand Improved slowly, Insofar as being
durable in the Indoor game, and it Is
hardly possible that he will be able to
stick it out In all of tho six games of
tha tour, but if ho has to give up the
floor Wormhoudt very probably will be
shifted to center and one of tho sub
stitutes will be given a chance at his
forward. Holmes Is altltudinous and
heavy, a good passer In. field work and
good at shooting the spheroid. He is a
very valuable man on the squad, where
ho unquestionably will stay.
Kansas finished the conference race In
second placo last year, having lost to
the Cornhuskers, who won tho confer
ence championship from Kansas, Uter
having beaten Ames decisively, inu,
Kansas is the same quintet as last
year, all tho old men being back and on
the squad, which will tender a reception
to the Cyclones.
Counterfeit Bills
Deceive Merchants;
Deposited in Banks
The discovery of ten counterfeit J10
bills among deposits made by business
men in Omaha banks Friday and Sat
urday has alarmed hank cashiers and
secret service men. They expect to re
ceive more of the spurious currency and
fear that the city has been a harvest
f.eld for green-goods men, who took nd
vantago of tho New Year's holiday to
make a cleanup and get awny before
the fake paper money was discovered by
experts.
Tho Imitations are said by bank tellers
and secret service agents to bo as good
specimens of "phony currency as have
been picked up In this territory for some
time. They are counterfeits of the l'.W7
series of gold certificates, bearing the
portrait of Michael Hillegas, first treas
urer of the United States. The work of
producing them was evidently done by
tho aid of photography. A characteristic
of the bills Is a yellow smudgy appear
ance on tho face.
Tho fake Issue Is listed in a recent gov
ernment bulletin published to aid In de
tecting counterfeits. According to secret
service attaches, It was first discovered
In Montreal, when a counterfeit money
factory there was raided by the authorities.

OPPORTUNITIES
FOR YOUNG MEN
in the Advertising Field
By JOHN LEE MAHIN.
THE great opportunities offered in the
advertising field today are not so large
in what is known as the advertising
business, as in the introduction of advertis
ing principles and , methods into ordinary
every-day business.
Tnko Tho Boo ns an example of a business in whioh the
fundamental principles underlying nil successful adver
tising effort aro developed to the highest stnto of ef
ficienoy.
For ono cent tho residents of Omaha have delivered to
thoir homos every evening tho concrete, boiled-down re
sults of a complete canvass of the wholo world by cablo
and telegraph, to say nothing of tho most thorough ex
position of everything that is livo and vital to tho City
of Oraahn itself.
This wonderful result is accomplished by co-operative
buying on tho part of tho subscribers to Tho Bee. Tho
fact that f50,000 readers can bo depended upon to pay one
cent for The Bco onables tho publishers to accomplish
every day tho wonderful achievement which tho readers
of The Beo have become accustomed to regard as a mat
ter of course.
The real spirit of advertising is demonstrated in tho
constant study and appreciation of what human naturo
naturally craves or can bo educated to continually do
siro on tho part of tho management of Tho Bee.
There are probably 200 men In Omaha who could afford and tfould
gladly pay $10 a day for the Information contained in The Beo.
Ho the price, one cent, at which It Is Sold, is in no way a measure
of tho valuo of tho paper, considered as n separate item.
Tho adoption of advertising principles and methods of procedure)
on tho part of our great manufacturers, ln the distribution of their
goods, will mean a corresponding reduction in the price to the in
dividual consumer. It Is the most effective solution that could ba
applied to tho so-called problem of the high cost of living.
The great opportunities for young men today are exactly along
this line. The same fundamental principles which have made our
great newspapers possible and entrenched them against competition,
on the basis df giving tho largest possible service for the money,
is open to a long list of separate businesses.
The young men of today who will be the big men of tomorrow will
study the group organizing and group serving characteristics et
our daily papers and undoubtedly find through their advertising
pages a blazed trail for accomplishing the same desirable resulta
in the particular businesses ln which they are now engaged.
