111 Character.
Principal L. C. ltusmlsel of the Omaha
High Schol of Commfrcf, against whom
charges had been preferred by three com
plainants, who said he had been "Indis
creet," wu exonerated by the Hoard of
Education at a special meeting at noon.
A viva voce vote was taken, and lm-
ni3umii7 voaru lujuurnru u nil-
nounc that the report of the Judiciary
committee exonerating Mr. Rusmlscl had
been adopted quickly and without dis
cussion. Members J. J. Foster and A. J.
Burdln were absent.
Raamlael Kxoaerated.
Tha resolution which was adopted fol
. lows:
Mr. President: Tour committee on Ju
diciary, to which was referred the
charges filed against 1.. C. Rnsmlsel,
principal of the High School of Com
merce, begs leave to report ns follows:
Your committee tinmedlntrlv npon re
ceipt of said charges proceeded to In
quire Into said matter and in connection
therewith received and heard the testi
mony of witnesses presented to sustain
said charges and other witnesses in de
fense of the accused. This testimony was
taken down In shorthand by a court re
porter and transcribed and may lie ex
amined by any member of the board who
desires to do so. After careful considera
tion of the testimony and evidence pre
sented and the arguments of counsel,
your committee finds that nothing was
proved that would In the least reflect
upon the character, morals or high stand
ing of Mr. Rusmlsel as a gentleman and
teacher.
Therefore, your committee move. that
the charges be dismissed and that your
honorable body express its entire confi
dence in Mr. Rusmlpel and In his char
acter and high qualifications for the po
sition which he occupies.
Charges Were Flimsy.
President C. T. Walker did not discuss
the action of'e board, but members
freely expresf their opinions to the ef
fect that tha "charges were) flimsy and
the evidence an Insult to the common
sense of the members." Member R. F.
Williams said "the men who brought
these charges ought to be made to pay
tha expense of the Investigation, for they
were unable to bring In any evidence to
support their contentions."
Dr. E. Holovtchlner, chairman of the
judiciary committee, said the cost of the
case to the school district would ap
proximate fctOO. the salary of the ste
nographer and expenses of teachers who
were brought back from vacations to tes
tify being the chief Items.
The testimony of the many witnesses
examined will be kept on record In the
office of the secretary of the board.

Internal Revenue
Receipts in Omaha
Smaller for July
An edict from tho commissioner of In
ternal revenue prevents the collector from
divulging figures on the Income tax for
the state, but It was presumed that the
Income tax would swell the recetf.ts of
the local office. Instead, the receipts for
the month of July show a decrease as
compared with the total receipts of July,
1913.
The total receipts at the office of the
collector of Internal revenue for the state
of Nebraska for July, 1911, were only
154.372. M), as compared with a total of
$57.7136 for the same period last year.

A Wonderful Season
FROM early spring we have had, all in nil, ilelijjhtful
weather; nature has beeu at its best; record-break
ing crops are the hnrvest; but it is from tho business
iewpoint that we regard this ns a wonderful season.
After th unprecedented increase of bus
iness during the spring months, particularly
in June, when we far surpassed our greatest
expectations, it would not have, been "upris
ing had July opened up by merely keeping
pace with the records for the same month
last year.
But we nevertheless made most ener
getic efforts in the way of providing attrac
tive values in attractive merchandise for this
month, with the result that the percentage
of increase in volume of business in Juiy
vastly exceeds that of the same period of last
year or any other year.
This wonderful activity is indicative of a splendid confidence
thin Btor's service on the part of the public: as well as of unus
ual fore knowledge on the part of our merchandise buyers in secur
ing even more attractive values this season than ever before.
Please remember that our SEAL. OK QUALITY means more
than a guarantee of quality and value. It's an earnest desire to be
or the "(JRKATEST SERVICE to the GREATEST NUMBER" to do
MORE THAN IS EXPECTED OF US.
