boy, when Glen Gibson, a sturdy
youth of 17, will go on the operating
table for the removal of adenoids

to serve ninety days in the county
jail when he appeared in police court
on a vagrancy charge growing out
of his association with undesirable
companions. After being confined in
the county bastile his case was inves

and Juvenile Judge Leslie.
Conferences with a doctor re
sulted in the decision to give the
youth a fresh start by removal of
obstructions that have deterred his
intellectual progress since he was a

agreed to the operation rather than
serving the time in jail. After his
recovery he will be placed in the cus

BOTH PARENTS CLAIM
BODY ASTHEIR SON
Was the Boy Killed by a Train
Floyd Adair or Spencer
Morgan?
X-RAY PHOTO MAY DECIDE
Is the boy killed at Dawson, Kan.,
late Sunday night Floyd Adair, 15,
son of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Adair of
South Omaha, or is he the son of
B. F. Morgan of Kansas City? Par
ents of both lads claim the body as
their missing offspring. Police, doc
tors and coroners are trying by every
method to effect a .positive identifi
cation. The Adair family of South Omaha
was preparing to bury the body
yesterday when Mr. Morgan viewed
the corpse and pronounced it his dead
son, Spencer, who left home Friday
night. The grandmother of the Adair
boy thereupon expressed willingness
to take a most solemn oath that the
boy was her beloved grandson.
Buckshot in Teeth.
tr Snnrer offerer! as nroof the
statement that Undertaker F. F. Kin

shortly after the fatality, found buck
shot in the dead lad's teeth. The
Kansas City parent said the finding
of the buckshot was proof positive
that the body was that of spencer,
his son.
So positive are both parents that
the corpse is their son that authori
ties sought some other ' means of
identification than those already of
fered. My son once had his right arm
broken," said Mr. Morgan.
My son once had his lelt arm

Yesterday an X-ray was used on
the body to find traces of the fracture.

DAYS OF CHIVALRY
RIGHT IHNEBRASKA
Women Are Honored in Nearly
Every County In the Great
Oornhusker State.
NAMES PUT IN BIO BOOK
By A. R. CROH.
The days of chivalry, we are told,
are dead.
They are. We know it and wc are
glad of it. Sir Roderick Norn d'Un
Chien Castle-Chateau no longer ritles
up and do,... the country in his nobby
spring suit of sheet iron, seeking out
the person who dares to deny that his
lady Amwosa de Beaulieu is the most
beautiful woman in all the world, and
altogether beautiful.
Sir Roderick Nom d'Un Chien Castle-Chateau
sometimes married his
lady and she lived unhappily ever
afterward until such time as Sir Rod
erick very chivalrously had her
strangled or suffocated or beheaded.
That kind of chivalry is dead and
we are glad that the late Don Quix
ote dc la Mancha was unable to re
vive it.
Tia Different Now.
There is another kind of chivalry
that is alive today. Men don't ride
about in armor breathing "s'death and
s'blood." They practice their chiv
alry differently. They buy their
wives and daughters automobiles and
talking machines and silks and satins
and chocolates. They build them
fine homes and take them to Califor
nia and Europe, and everything.
That's better than sitting in a
tower, while some boob in armor
went about making a fool of himself
n your name, isn't it, madam?
Nebraska , bears the unmistakable
mark of being A No. 1, XXXXX and
a yard wide in this fine modem chiv
alry. The Proof.
"The proof!" you demand. "Tin
proof!" Well, if you need any proof, we
have it right here in the postal guide
Forty-nine towns and cilits in Ne
braska bear the names of the dear
creatures forty-nine count 'em..
When Nebraska's chivalrous sons
named their towns, they seem to
have sought to honor their wives,
daughters, sweethearts.
"An accident," you skepticiie, "a
mere accident."
All right, then. How many Ne
braska towns arc named after men, do
you think?
A beggarly eiyht Abie, Arthur,
Donald, Henry, Herman, Irwin, Max
and Orlando.
But look at the girls! Dante had

Quality
OUT OF $56,000,000 JUST
$250,000 IS SPENT IN FINAL
TESTS TO MAKE DOUBLY
SURE YOUR CHALMERS
IS RIGHT-DEAD RIGHT
Thin $56,000,000 run" on the 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers has not stam
peded the Chalmers factory.
Quite the contrary. The cars are coming out of there so fine, so exact,
so thoroughly tested, that all we have to do now when we take them oft the
freight cars is to pour in oil, gas and water, run them a few miles, and
deliver. ,
There's an excellent reason for this condition. The Chalmers Company
has a young army of eagle-eyed inspectors who take great pride in finding
a fault in a car when it comes out of the plant
This costs just $250,000 a year in cold cash just one quarter of a mil
lion dollars a year to M catch the little things."
I firmly believe thai most factories would let "go by" nine cars out of
ten that the Chalmers inspectors waylay.
It sounds like a lot of money, but when a company maintains the slogan
of ''Quality First" and bases a $56,000,000 business on the quality idea,
then it becomes quite clear.
I firmly believe that three times $250,000 is returned to the cash drawer
of the Chalmers Company every year through such a policy.
It certainly makes selling a Chalmers car anything but a difficult matter.
And that accounts for the "run" on the car. For "run" it surely is.
I am handling from three to. five times as many Chalmers can as this
territory ever absorbed before.
Last November the Chalmers Dealers bought $22,000,000 worth of 3400
r. p. m. Chalmers in forty minutes.
These Cars were all made and delivered before summer rolled around.
Then 10,000 more were added. These were taken up during the
summer months.
Now 20,000 more are coming through.
That means that this model will be continued without change in design
into next season.
It also means a $56,000,000 business. Which is twice more than the most
optimistic Chalmers executive ever dared dream.
The quality in the car is the answer.
Drive one a mile, and you won't be able to get your monogram painted
on the doors quick enough.

Orators Can't Have
Monopoly of Street
Elmer E. Thomas, representing the
anti-saloon people, and G. C. Porter,
socialist candidate for congress, asked
the city council to set aside Douglas
street between Fifteenth and Six
teenth streets from 8 to 10 p. m. as a
quiet zone wherein a public forum
may be held without disturbance
from automobiles and other mundane
mechanism.
The city dads will not set aside
this street as a zone, but Superin
tendent Kugel of the police depart
ment will endeavor to divert traffic
as a "safety first" proposition, unless
he should be enjoined by some of
the business interests of that block.
Major Warner, Formerly
Of This City, is Dead

past commander of Mt. Calvary Com
mandcry No. 1 of the Knights Temp
lar and a prominent citizen of Omaha

York. Word of his death reached

Major Warner left Omaha to be
assistant adjutant at Battle Mountain
sanitarium, a soldiers' home, at Hot
Springs, S. D. His health failed him

ly to New York for special treatment.
His convalescence waa retarded one
week ago when he fell on a side

The funeral will be held Thursday.
First
Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hair
Girls if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff it to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply ft at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will com
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will look and feel a
hundred times better. You can get
liquid arvon at any drug store. It Is
inexpensive and four ounces is all
you need, no matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails. Advertisement.
