THE REE : OMAHA, SATURDAY. JULY 15, 1916. ROTARIAHS TO THE ANMLMYENTION Omaha Delegates Will Take a Prominent Fart in the In ternational Meeting. WIVES ACCOMPANY MANY Delegates, - alternates and other members of the Omaha Rotary club departed yesterday evening over the Rock Island or the seventh annual International Convention of Rotary Clubs, which is to be held in Cincin nati next week. Dr. H. L. Akin, Dr. E. C. Henry, D. A. Johnson, secretary of the club, and Harley G. Moorhead are dele gates. Dan Baum, jr., Orla S. Good rich, Tom S. Kelly and J. W. Welch are alternates. Messrs. Henry, John soli, Baum and Kelly were accom panied by their wives, and Mr. Welch by his son. Bob Hyland, W. L. Masterman, Dr. Frank M. Conlin and A. W. Carpen ter will also go. The following Rotarians from Lin coln accompanied the locals: Harry Porter, president of the Lincoln club; Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Marshall, Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Hayward and P. O'Ma honey. Carlton Woodard, Dr. C. R. Brandt. F. J. Ainsworth and J. H. Beveridge joined the party at Council Bluffs. The party will occupy a special car on the Rock Island train. They will spend Saturday in Davenport, where they will be entertained by the Tri City Rotary club, consisting of Rock Island, Moline and Davenport. The Pennsylvania railroad will send a special train from Chicago over the Federal Judge to Emulate One Weston and Hike to Columbus Federal Judge Joseph W. Wood rough will set his alarm clock for 4 o'clock Sunday morning. He will arise, put on his heavy walking shoes and his second best suit and start out on a "hike" to Columbus, Neb. ' The judgejs bound for North Platte to hold a session of court there. He is going to walk the 100 miles to Co lumbus, not to save the government the railroad, fare, but to benefit his health. His health is all right and he believes in keeping i all right. "Hiking" over the country at about four miles an hour, stopping at farm houses for a drink of milk and that sort of thing is the judge's favorite hobby, even more of a favorite than his garden. ' There is no other federal judge who walks from one division of his district to another. The judge expects to get to Colum bus in four days. There he will pat ronize the more rapid, but, he insists, no more enjoyable method of travel known as the railroad. The grist of court business at North Platte will not occupy his attention more than a day or two. And when that is done there will be another fresh air outifig for him. For Her bert S. Daniel, accompanied by Mrs. Daniel, Mrs. Woodrough, and the lat ter's daughter, Miss Marjorie Beck et, will motor out of Omaha next Wednesday. They will go to North Platte and there add the judge to the party and then motor on to Denver, Colorado Springs, Estes park and the Garden of the Gods. This pleasant chapter being con cluded, the judge will again take to the railroad for a trip to Los Angeles, which is in the state of California, and in which city he will allow his father to see him for the first time since he was clothed with the mantle of a United States judge. The rest of the party will motor back to Omaha. Rock Island tracks to take all dele gates from Nebraska, South Dakota and Iowa from Davenport to Cincin nati without change. This train will leave Davenport late Saturday night, arriving in Cincinnati Sunday afternoon. Omaha men will take a Droniinent part in the convention. Dr. E. C. Henry, is on the program, secretary D.- A. Johnson has sent on a large exhibit mounted on beaver board, showing by means of photographs, charts and records the system used by the Omaha Rotary club.

Raise Fund for Omaha Guardsmen on Border Omaha business and professional men have already raised a fund of more than $200 to be sent to the Omaha guardsmen' now on the Mexi can border. The money is to be expended for ice cream, incidentals and anything the soldiers may desire. Judge Wil lis G. Sears has the subscription list in hand and will be glad to receive any contributions Omaha people may desire to make. NOT ENOUGH MEN TO FILL ALWOBS SOW Call for Laborers Comes Into Omaha from Grading and Bridge Contractors. EVEN OFFER TO GIVE BONUS "The man who is not working these days has no excuse to offer, unless he is physically disabled," avers Major McCormick of the Volunteers of America. "I have a number of jobs that are waiting to be filled and I don't have half enough applications to fill them. Only .yesterday a con tractor complained to me that he had been trying to assemble ten men to ship to Clinton, la., for bridge work ana mat ne nan oeen unaDie to get them in Omaha. And tnesc applies tions are for work other than harvest work. Any man who is willing to work, but is not strong enough to work all day at hard labor can get odd jobs that will support mm without any trouble these days. 1 have never seen such a scarcity of labor in Omaha. These sentiments are echoed by Captain Kline of the industrial de partment of the Salvation Army, who says: "Wages have advanced 20 per cent, I think, since this time last year ana the men who are employing la borers cannot find them. Here in our industrial home we have twenty men all the time who are either physically or mentally deficient and can't be sent out on regular jobs. We do the best can for them and keep them busy in our paper gathering, haling and sorting departments, where they can make enough to keep themselves."

One employ ment agent said: "1 don't see why the cops don't pinch all the lazy bums that are hanging out in Jefferson park and put them to work on the city jobs and let some of the men that are working get out in the har vest fields and on grading, construc tion and bridge gangs, where they are needed so badly. There's no money in the employment agency business these days, when every worker is grabbed up for a new job as soon as his old one is finished." Gas Commissioner s Returns, But Says He Didn't See Obregon City Gas Commissioner Butler has returned to his laboratory on the fifth floor of the city hall. He at once put a quietus upon reports that after the democratic convention at St. Louis he went to El Paso to confer with Gen eral Obregon. It was known that when Mr. Butler left Omaha for St. Louis on June 12 he bore letters from Mayor Dahlmaii to Roger Sullivan and Tom J Taggart. The contents of these mis-1 sives have not been divulged, but there is a rumor that they contained refer.) ence to Mr. Butler's knowledge of the ! whereabouts of Fancho Villa and sug gestcd that the democratic leaders .. send Mr. Butler to the border. , " During his five weeks' absence the gas commissioner attended the St Louis convention, made a flying trip to Excelsior Springs and fished along the Elkhorn river. Now that he is 5 back on the job it is said that the Omaha Gas company will have to sit up and take notice. - - Store Hours: 8:30 A. M. to 5 P. M Saturday Till 9 P.
