CALVIN GOES INTO
NEW OFFICE TODAY
Retiring Head of Union Pacific
Keeps Open house for His
Many Friends.
NSW PRESIDENT ARRIVES
President Calvin, recently elected
president of the Union Pacific system
to succeed A. L. Mohler, whose res
ignation became effective at mid
night, has arrived in Omaha from
Salt Lake City and at once went to
headquarters, where he met Mr. Moh
ler. The two presidents met, shook
hands, held a short conversation, dis
cussing the weather and the crops,
and then Mr. Calvin retired to the
president's private office, where he
dictated some private letters.
With President Mohler it was a
busy day. He had just as much to do
with the affairs of the railroad as if
he was to remain president for an
indefinite period. He conferred as
usual with the officers who report
to him and issued the usual orders
emanating from the office of presi
dent. In addition to all of this, he
met a host of friends who have
known him for years and who came
to say goodbye. However, he would
not have it that way, impressing upon
them that he was not going away to
stay, but, instead, just getting out of
the harness for the purpose of tak
ing a rest that he felt he had earned.
The callers were not confined to
any one particular class, but included
the rich and the poor; the prominent
business men and those of more hum
ble walks of life. The reception to
each was the same. Mr. Mohler hav
ing just as warm a greeting and as
firm a hand snaice tor me poor man
as for the rich man.
Door Wide Open.
The afternoon was given over to
the employes and officers of the
Union Pacific. They called singly
and in groups to pay their parting
tribute to a president whom they
have come to regard as one of their
best friends. There was nothing for
mal about the final reception. The
door to Mr. Mohler's private office
was wide open and all who called
were made to feel that they were
welcome, and as the Union Pacific
men grasped the hand of their pass
ing president there was a kind and
cheerey word tor eacn.
Still Calls Omaha Home.
Last night Mr. Mohler left for
New York City. After a short con
ference with members of the execu
tive committee, he will go to an At
lantic coast resort, where he will take
a long rest. Following this, he will
return and probably go to his Colo
rado ranch for a time. Later on he
expects to return to Omaha and con
tinue to make this city his home.
While the affair will be strictly in
formal, today will be Mr. Calvin's
day at Union Pacific headquarters.
With the coming of the dawn he au
tomatically becomes president in fact
and assumes all of the duties of the
nffice. Durine the day it is planned
by the officials and employes to call
upon him in his ottice ana pay tneir
respects and thus become acquainted.

FAITH IS PLEDGED ANEW
"Dear old South Omaha; sweet be
her memory. Blessed be those men
who toiled for thrity years, tt is now
for you young men to take up the
work of those prophets of hope. Let
Greater Omaha be the splendid star
toward which you shall guide your
ship. Let service be your motto,"
said Rev. Robert L. Wheeler, in the
keynote speech of a Greater Omaha
get-together dinner last evening in
the restaurant of the Live Stock ex
change building, South Side.
The dinner was attended by 350
representative men of the merged city
and was tendered to the city commis
sioners in honor of George Parks, re
cently elected city commissioner to
fill a vacancy.
E. Buckingham was chairman of
the occasion and Bruce McCulloch
served as toastmaster. Green's band
discoursed musical enthusiasm and
Miss Grace Poole contributed several
vocal numbers. During the evening
there were several demonstrations of
"pep." During his toast to "The Tie
That Binds," Rev. Mr. Wheeler said
that South Side people may have lost
much, but will gain more by con
solidation. Randall K. Brown, on behalf of the
Commercial club, expressed the hope
that South Siders will make this club
its own club and share in the advan
tages it offers. Dr. E. C. Henry of
the Rotary club extended the hand
of fellowship to the South Side peo
ple. "When the city commissioners
elected George Parks they wiped out
the last bit of feeling which resulted
from the merger," declared Henry C.
Murphy, amid wild applause.
Mayor Dahlman told of the great
ness of the west, and other toasts
were: John M. Tanner, "Reminis
cences;' J. B. Watkins, "Commercial
Unity;" Harry Ryan, "For the Ad
Club and Retail Merchants;" Rev.
Father Gluba, "Community Inter
ests;" A. W. Jefferis, "Ak-Sar-Ben;"
Jack Ryan, "A Voice from the
Patch," and George Parks.
