and libraries of the old world,", he said.
TThetr experience in many Inetancea j

Be pointed out the two patha by which
the foreigner becomes either a "liability"
or an "asset"' to the country.
"He Is essentially a social being," he
said. "And if his craving for society Is
not satisfied In good channels he will find

to a job and then Invited into a dii.su to

Places of Kntertalnment.
He urged the opening of four houses In
Pouth Bide where the foreign element can
find respectable entertainment. These
places would have pool, billiards, smok
Ing rooms, reading rooms and so on.
"If we don't make some, provisions for
the social life of men after the saloon Is

"Poor Man's Bank"
Prospect for Omaha
Superintendent Pchrelnrr of the Wei
fare hoard has received Information that
a group of Omaha men are contemplat
ing formation of a company for the pur
pose of opening a "poor man's bank," to
be operated In connection with the Wel
fare hoard.
Although the proposed hank. If estal
Itshed. will be In connection wtth the
Welfare board's work, the hank will be
operated and maintained as a separate
Institution Insofar as the actual business
Is concerned. Ians would bo made upon
recommendations of the Welfare board
whose InvestlKators look up the appli
cants. A similar losn bank has been In opera
tion In Kansas City for several years
and the report for last yea states that
less than 1 per cent of the loans were
charged off as losses.
The plan Is to make loans on basis of
monthly repayments and at a rate of
Interest that would put the loan agents
and pawn brokers out of business.
SOFT CORN SHOWS
UP VERY POORLY
Warm Weather Has Established
Fact Considerable Corn is of
Little Value.
GRAIN RECEIPTS ARE HEAVY
The return of wsnn weather has
brought about some unexpected condi
tions with respect to the grain market,
especially the com. It has developed the
fact that there Is a lot of corn that Is
so soft and completely saturated with
water that it Is almost without a market
value.
While the weather was cold, very lit
tle of the corn appeared to be soft, but
with the coming of high temperstures.
corn that during the oro weather of
January seemed pretty Rood, now t so
filled with .water that grain men assert
It Is likely to rnt before It can be dried
out. This Is corn that failed to mature
last fall. On the Omaha drain exchange
this corn Is selling aa low as I? cents
per bushel and Is a drug on the market,
even at this price.
Omaha grain receipts consisted of 1M
ears of whest, 242 of corn and thirty-two
of oats. Wheat waa I to I cents off, sell
ing at $!. to SI 1& per bushal.
Poor Cora Lower.
The better grades of corn were a cent
up to 4 cents down, with the poorer stuff
off considerably more. Corn that graded
reasonably high sold at W to M cents, but
there was more thst sold all the way
between and 4& cents per bushel.
Oats were a cent to 14 cents lower,
selling at 42 to 42Vs cents per bushel.
Stocks of grain In storsge at the begin
ning of the present week are more than
tOW.ooo bushels less than on the corre
sponding date of last year. At this time
theie is to exceed 1.W0.W0 bushels more
of wheat In storage than a year ago. The
big decrease Is In corn, it showing a fall
ing off of more than !,,, due to the
fact that cereal mills and feeders in
states to the east are constantly on the
ground buying tip all the best of the
grain aa fast aa It arrives.

The judges had you in mind you, every man, woman and child in Omaha
rwhen they selected, from more than 1,300 suggestions, "GROW WITH
GROWING OMAHA" as a new slogan for Omaha.
The contest for a new slogan, conducted recently by a local newspaper, was
the result of a demand for a phrase that would directly affect each one of us.
"Buy It in Omaha", "Omaha, the Gate City of the West", "Made in Omaha"
and many others, are frequently used, but none quite fills the bill, none ap
plies individually to each of us.
The judges in this contest, eight successful business men, representing as many
different lines, said that "GROW WITH GROWING OMAHA" should be our
slogan. It is not a boost, they said; it will stand the test of truth, is pleasing,
is an invitation to outsiders, and it applies to all of us alike.
We all want to grow. If you are in business you want your business to grow;
if you have a profession, you want your clients to increase; if you are on a
salary, you want your firm to prosper; if you are a wage earner, you want
work to be plentiful. Your business, your profession, your salary, your job,
all will be better if your city is prosperous.
Help your city and yourself by boosting. Use this slogan every time you can.
- Try it on your neighbor, your wife, on your enemies and your friends.. Boost.
Boost With Boosting Omahans
And You Will
. Grow . With Growing Omaha
Omaha lias more than 400 live, progressive factories, turning out
things you want, things you must have Their products are always an
good often better than articles from other cities that you buy. You
pay no freight on them. So you get more, both in quality and in
quantity, for the price when you buy Omaha-Made Goods.
You muy want something in the boiler line; an Omaha factory,
the Drake-Williams-Mount Co., will supply you. Butchers and packers
can buy the equipment they need from a homo factory, the 0. B. Liver
Co. The Omaha Foundry and the Lawrence Shot & Lead Co., Omaha N
factories, can fill your order for anything in their lines. There are
Omaha factories malting nearly everything used. Investigate before
you buv.
