It wss alven to Mr. Kennedy to spend his lifetime In Omaha, a cltv he devotedly loved and believed In. and which he served in varloua iwhllc and official ca pacities. Highly restarted snd (rusted, he was frequently called upon to fill imel tlons of public trust and confldem-e. With these duties weighing heavily upon him. he continued to carefully look after the Intereata of a large clientage until worn out with with responsibilities, fatal dis ease fastened upon him. After a long, brave struggle, surrounded by a devoted family, borne up by the prayers of a loyal church, and respected hv a great city, he gave up the fight and went to his long rest. To her who was his faithful companion, and to his children who rlae up to call him blessed, we extend our hpsrilcet sym pathy. !e Ver Wholes. To the memorv of De Ver Fholes, who recently wss called so suddenly from the scenes of Ids earthly career, the Omaha Keal Relate exrhange desires to express Ha deepest reaiiect end appreciation.

Tet us pause today for e little and give repectf. and conelderat thought to on who had much to do with the shap ing of our city's destineles a quarter of a centurv ago, To many of the younger generation of real estate men. Oeorge N. lll'-ks may not have been well known. Rut to those of us who are flnlah-ng a genera tion passed In the front line of Omaha's upbuilding, the announcement of Mr. Hick's death came with a shock. It waa snother loosening of one of the old ties that hind some of us to the past It wss the removal of one who had stood with us shoulder to shoulder In the days that tiled mens souls. Kindly, gentle manly, full of energy, a man of much more than ordinary Intellectual ability, often associated with men In high place, Mr. Hicks waa a factor In our city's formative period. We shall mta hla cheery greeting and his optimistic dlacuaslon of passing events es we met him here snd there upon the street. Much more must those of bis I home and family clrrle be lost without I him. ! To them, the Omaha Real Estate ex- change offers th's word of consolation and comfort, feeble as this msy seem to those who mourn. . ! i He Wants State to j Look After Child: August Trlrher. a restnursnt emploe, living at South Nineteenth street, aurprlsed Judge I-eslie In Juvenile court by requeettnit that his csr-old son, Julius, be rlsced In a rfortnstory.
