Prohibition would deprive the city

the school fund. It is sufficient to
build five new, modern, twelve-room
school houses every year of the type
of the casteiiar and Vinton scnoois.

Sigma Chi Chapter
.At Lincoln Accused
Lincoln, Ne., Oct. 20. Chancellor
Avery of the University of Nebraska
announced last night that national-offi
cers of the Sigma Chi fraternity
would be summonded to' Lincoln to
take drastic action aeainst the local
chapter, possibly the wtihdrawal of
its charter. Ihe action ot the chan
cellor follows complaints by the Lin
coln police authorities that the chap
ter house has been used as a hiding
Slace for property alleged to have
een taken from hotels and billiard
halls. Eighteen months ago, Chan
cellor Avery said, the local fraternity
placed itself under a cloud, and it was
warned that a second offense would
mean the .request that its charter be
forfeited. The charge against the
members, he said, will be that of har
boring stolen property.
Wheat and Corn
Soar Still Higher
Going upl
Wheat went so high Friday that it
smashed even Thursday's record of
$1.66. No. 2 hard brought $1.68. .
An excellent cash demand and
rather light receipts boosted the
wheat market from 1 to 3 cents. The
bulk of No. 3 hard sold at $1.66, and
No. 4 hard went as high as $1.64.
Yellow corn reached the 90-cent
level, the highest price ever paid for
this corn in the Omaha market. One
choice car of white corn soared as
high as 90 cents. . (

PAPER BOY IS USED
TO HARD KNOCKS
But the Training They Receive
Develops Sturdiness, Self
Beliance and Ambition.
SOME ABE SONS OF WEALTH
By A. R. GROH.
Let us sing a little song in praise
of that bright-eyed, sturdy lad who
comes to your house daily the paper
boy.
He is a "paper boy" simply in the
sense that he carries newspapers. In
physique and haracter he is rather an
"iron boy." For he is industrious, am
bitious, self-reliant.
Oftimes he docs .'t "have to work."
Many of the boys who carry The Bee
are sons of well-to-do parents, parents
who realize that a job outside of
school hours is the best kind of train
ing for their sons.
One of the boys was driven around
his route by his father's chauffeur in
the big car several times this summer
when his mother wanted him to get
through early. Usually he walks, like
the sturdy, independent, democratic
lad he is.
Carries to Dad's Employes.
Hii parents could lap him in luxury,
but they are too sensible for that.
They want him to gain habits of in
dustry and self-reliance. Some of the
employes of his father's establishment
are on the boy's route.
Imagine a son of wealth delivering
the daily paper to one of his father's
employes in staid, old England I My
wafirdl Just fawncyl
This is an illustration of the mag
nificent democratic spirit of the westv
Which lad, think you, is likely to de
velop into the finest man the one
just mentioned, or the boy who lies
abed late, who is taken to school in
the family limousine for fear, the dear
child will catch cold, who taps father's
purse for spending money, who, in
short, never does anything except
what he likes, who never makes an
effort, who is lapped in continual phy
sical and mental luxury?
Not only do the rising generation in
Omaha carry paper routes. Some of
them rise early every morning to tend
to their "lamp routes," lighting and
extinguishing the street gas lamps.
My friend, John B., is proud of his
job, working in a department store,
Saturdays; and Elmer is not ashamed
to drive the wagon of a humble vege
table peddler on Saturdays.
The school of hard work and hard
knocks is, after all, the best school.

A CLEAR COMPLEXION
Ruddy Cheeks Sparkling Eyes
Most Women Can Have
Says Br. Edwards, a Wen-Known
Ohio Physician
Or. F. M. Edwards for 17 years
treated scores of wotnen for liver and
bowel ailments. During these years he
gave to his patients a prescription made
of a few well-known vegetable ingredi
ents mixed with olive oil, naming them
Dr. - Edwards' Olive Tablets, you will
know them by their olive color.
These tablets are wonder-workers on
the. liver and bowels, which cause a nor
mal action, carrying off the waste and
poisonous matter in one's system.
If you have a pale face, sallow look,
dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, head
aches, a listless, no-good feeling, all out
of sorts, inactive bowels, you take one
of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets nightly
for a time and note the pleasing results.
Thousands of women as well as men

struggled, and by that very struggling
made themselves capable of great
things.
Are Full of Pep."
Their struggles put iron into their
blood. And this iron of character goes
on today, hammering itself against
obstacles and battering them down.
One of the girls who keeps the Bee
circulation books is fairly in love with
the "paper boys."
"They are certainly the dandiest lot
of boys," she says. "So self-reliant,
wide-awake, bright, ambitious. A
number of them have bank accounts,
and nearly all Cjf them buy their own
clothes. They practically all go to
school. Some are saving up their
money to go to college."
Solomon used the ant as the sym
bol of industry. There weren't any
paper boys in his day.

gard; consider his ways and be

To Talk at the Rome
Saturday Evening
Henry D. Estabrook of New York
City, one of Omaha's men who went
east to help make New York what it
is today, will speak at 8 o'clock Satur
day evening under the auspices of the
McKinley club.
The subject will be, "America as a
Nation." Mr. Estabrook is a fluent
speaker and always receives a good
hearing when he returns to his old
home town.
He was in the presidential primary
race last spring, but decided to with
draw after making a few laps around
the track.
RECORDS FOR LOW

Never So Early in the Month
Has the Weather Been So
Cold aa Just Experienced.
MOISTURE HALF AN INCH
All records for low temperatures
recorded in Omaha in October pre
vious to the twenty-first day of the
month were knocked sky high when,
at 7 a. in., the thermometer at the
local office of the weather bureau reg
istered 20 degrees. With but two ex
ceptions this is the lowest tempera
ture recorded in Omaha in. October
since the establishment of the observ
atory here on November 1, 1870. On
October 27, 1878, the lowest IS de
greeswas reached, and on one other
occasion the mercury dropped to 20
degrees. That was on October 21,
19U.
No records were broken for pre
cipitation by Thursday's storm, how
ever. The snow and rain which fell
amounted to only .50 of an inch of
precipitation.
According: to reports received at
the local weather office the central
portion of the state experienced
lower temperatures Thursday night
than did the eastern and western por
tions. At North Platte and Valen
tine the mercury dropped to 14 de
grees, while at Cheyenne, Wyo., and
points in western Nebraska JO ae

So far as Nebraska is concerned,
the hli"rd is over. The prediction
