An Information bureau for automotnla
tourists la to be placed somewhere In the
cential part of Omaha on the IAnooln
highway by the Omaha. Kuto dub. Thla
waa decided at the meeting of the elub
yesterday. Weloome arches are to, be
placed possibly tt either side of the city
spanning the JUiroln highway. A few
words of welcome from the Omaha Auto
club are to adirn the arches.
President OoiiM Plots In Ms annual ad
dress revlcwnd some of the things accom
plished by the 'club during the year.
Beven hundred guide boards have been
placed on the various roods leading Into
Omaha by the club. Danger signs In
great numbers have been ported at the
sharp turns and cuts In the leading roads
coining Into Omaha. The olur took an
active part In the agitation which resulted
In the proseit traffic ordinance.
The club d elded to ask the state legis
lature this winter for a road law similar
to that In Iowa, whereby the automobiles
of the state will be taxed according to
norae power, the rervenue to be used In
the Improvement of the roads In different
sections of the state, according to the
amounta received In such revenue from
given sections of the state.
The clc.b will also seek a law In the
state that -will give automobile thieves
a pi-nlshmenr at least as severe as that
of horse thieves. They feel that the pres
ent law on this point Is not sufficiently
severe. The club was Instrumental 1n
sending two men to the penitentiary In
tne last year for auto theft.
. Buggcatlona of a city ordinance for auto
parking In the city were made, but no
definite action waa taken, although the
general membership of tha club la in favor
of some system that will get the autoa off
the streets. Thla will likely come up and
be developed later.
T. F. Btroud and Bert Murphy were
elected to, the board of directors to take
the placea of Rome Miller and W, L. Hoe

The Sign
When you put a sign
on your property it at
tracts more attention to
itself than to the house
. you .desire to selL
If the property is a
residence and your ob
ject is to convince a
prospective buyer of
the select character of
the neighborhood, a
sign certainly would not
be good taste.
On some kinds of prop
erty, such as a vacant lot or
a tumble-down empty house
near an abandoned coal
mine, a sign would not de
tract from the value of the
land.
But It would not brlnjx a
buyer out to see It. Some
thing else Is required to let
the buyer know where your
property is located.
The Agent
Ore of the best ways
to sell a house
iB through an agent
An agent works hard
for his commission; he
must first find a buyer
who is interested in the
kind of property you
have; then he may
spend weeks trying to
convince the man that
he should buy.
Often he does not sell tbe
house, so all bis work Is
dons without pay. He haa
spent his time, but you have
spent nothing.
Tou should always em
ploy an sgenj.. however, be
cause his experience gives
him a degree of skill in clos
ing deals that is worth sll
that he earns la the way ot
commission.
Telephone TyUr 1000
The Bee Want Ad
' A sign is seen only by
those who chance to
pass the property. An
agent goes to men who
have never seen the
property and thus
brings it to the atten
tion of a greater num
ber of people.
But a want ad in The
Bee reaches the entire
city.
. It supplements the
work of the agentit
does not replace him.
Where the sgent sees only
a doien men who are inter
ested in your property. The
Be want ad reaches hundred.
Bend in your ad without
delay someone may even
now be looking for the prop
erty you have for sale. The
sd will be almost sure to
reach him. Try It anyhow
