; Remembered.
SOCIETY CHANGES ITS -NAME
III recognition of what Americans
have done , in aiding the . French or
phan, the Society Orphelinat de Ar
meea has taken officially the, name
"Fatherless Children of France," the
English equivalent, and retifed the
French name to a subtitle, according
to letter received from Monsieur L.
Liard, rector of the University of
Paris, by Mme. A. M. Borglum, in
charge of the local Franco-Belgian
rcnci worn.
Monsieur Liard, writes a personal
letter to Mme. Borglum expressing
gratitude at the hearty retention ac
corded Miss Laurence Schofield and
Miss Eleanor Fell when they were in
Omaha in the interests of the relief
fund. x
Writes to Children.
To the American children who
"adopted" French war orphans Mon
sieur Liard writes in part:
"My Dear Children: Old ties bind
your country to mine. . When your
freat grandfathers took arms for their
independence some Frenchmen, led by
LaFayette and Rochambe;.u, went to
fight with them. You had been told
this and yon remembered it.
"Today France is engaged in a ter
rible war. She is defending her in
vaded soil. She is fighting for ideas
which are also those of your fathers;
the rights and liberty of nations.
"You know-lhis and you havo un
derstood it. f
"You also know that a war like
this one makes many victims and
many orphans. You do -not ignore
that a large number of these orphans
need aid and protection.
. "Then you said to yourselves: We.
little American boys and girls, we also
wish to help the orphans of France,
our friend. '
"Be blessed for this generous in
spiration. France, profoundly touched,
is grateful to you for it.
"To the ties which already united
your country to ours you have added
the touching bond of a fraternal af
fection. "The orphans of France who are or
will be helped by you thank you."
CANT BREAK INTO HOUSE.
THIEVES RAIO CHICK COOP
'Mrs. D. Napier's home at 1524
North Twentieth street was visited
Thursday night by thieves, who, fail
ing to break into the house, stole five
chickens from a coop to the rear of
the dwelling.
Milwaukee and Eock
Island MaytJse the
, Same Tracks East
The old rumor that the Milwaukee
and the Rock Island roads will en
ter into a traffic arrangement where
by they will tie up and jointly use
each other's tracks from Council
Bluffs to Neola, a distance of twenty-five
miles, has again been revived.
From the Bluffs to Neola the tracks
of the two roads run side by side, at
no point more than 200 feet or so
apart. It is asserted that to jointly
use these tracks for several years
would be much cheaper than for the
two roads to double track their re
spective lines 2nd that by the joint
use there would be a great sav
ing of time in the handling of trains.
It is asserted at the local offices
of the two companies that the deal
for joint use of tracks is being worked

Omaha store is only one of a number
which he has in various cities.
"Immense buying power for the

of how we give such big shoe values,"
said N. F. Peterson, local manager.
.The store fixtures are a delicate

New Selling System.
Barker's clothes shop is another of
these second story stores. Barker's
has a new plan of selling men's cloth
ing big values because of low rents,
no delivery system, no charge ac
counts. ' ' '
The clothes shop has a large sales
room with fine fixtures of mahogany
and plate gjass.
The straight price is $15 and at this
figure even tuxedo and full-dress
suits, silk lined, are sold.
Splendid natural light floodsi the
shop from the big windows all along
the west side. "
Smart Shop for Women. '
' Lamond's, shop of "smart wear
for women," occupies the south store
room. It has light from two sides.
The fixtures are delicate French gray
and old ivory, with mahogany coun

color scheme of the window drapings.
Flowers and palms add a delicate
touch.
Smart styles at low prices are the

OMAHA'S CUT PRICE SHOER
out in the Chicago offices and that if
anything comes out of it the deal will
be consummated in time for the han
dling of the heavy business next fall.
It is said, that the proposition contem
plates the use of the single track of
one of the roads for freight traffic
and the other for passenger train bus
iness. If the deal goes through, east
of, Neola, where the lines separate,
each company would use its own
tracks.
In time it is expected that the Mil
waukee will double its line from Ma
nilla west, but nothing is expected to
be done this season.

VALUES spring from Conditions
that are logical as the Laws of
the Universe.
The best-intentioned Tire Manufacturer
cannot AVOID being heavily handicapped
when comnetinir against:
1st The longest Experience in Mfg.
the Product.
2nd The greatest Leverage on pur
chasing of Raw Materials at lowest pnces,
through ability to take largest quantities,
j 3rd The lowest Cost of Manufacturing,
through largest VOLUME of Outpiit.
4th The clearly-demonstrated INTEN
TION to give Consumers and Dealers the
full benefit of the large ECONOMIES re
suiting from possession of three Cardinal
Advantages above defined.
PLACE behind this set of Conditions
a 47-year Record for Dependabil
ity, Good-faith, Initiative,

Tire Mfg. Concern, in the American field,
than the B. F. Goodrich Co., which is:
1st The largest Rubber Factory in the
world.
2nd 'With a 47-year Experience in Rubber-Working.
3rd With a raw-material Purchasing

ing its latest fiscal year.
Aih With the Manufacture and Sale,
during its latest fiscal year, of 50 MORE
Motor-Car and Truck Tires combined, than
