Police Abandon
Hope of Finding
Carl Merker Alive
With the failure of Carl Merker,
9-year-old son of William Merker, 317
North Twenty-first street, to return
to his home, police and juvenile court
officials have abandoned al! hope that
the lad is still alive and have accepted
the father's theory that he was
drowned.
Humane Officer Gus Ntilsen, who
conducted a thorough search for the
boy, says he believes it would be of
little use to drag the river where it
is thought the boy fell in, as the cur
rent is so swift there a body would
quickly be swept away.
Carl left New Year's day in search
of a sled that had been stolen from
him. He was traced to the river and
along the" bank to the new Union
Pacific bridge, where tracks in the
snow indicated he had fallen in the
stream.
Dean Cutter Goes to Attend

Dr. Irving S. Cutter, dean of the

hotel, with reference to introducing
into the medicine schools a course
especially adapted to medical, surgi
cal and sanitary training for the army
and navy, and for making medical
graduates available for military serv
ice in cases of emergency. . ,
Dr. A. F. Jonas left Wednesday to
attend the same conference as a rep
resentative from the surgical depart
ment of the College of Medicine.
Deans of the medical colleges from
all over the country were called for
this same conference.
To Elect Successor to
B.H.Robison January 17
Nothing will be done prior to Jan
uary 17 in the matter of electing a
president of the Bankers' Reserve
Life Insurance company to succeed
Bascom H. Robison, deceased. At
that date stoc' holders and directors
of the company will meet in Omaha
for the annual meeting, when it is
expected a president will be elected.
In the meantime R. L. Robison,
vice president, will perform the duties
of chief executive.
At this time 'here is not even a
guess as to v.-ho will be elected pres
ident, though it is asserted t'. at it is
more than likely some of the present
officers will be elected for the va
cancy. Postoffice Employes to
Ask for Raise in Pay
For the purpose of drafting a reso
lution requesting an increase in the
wage scale, a mass meeting of all em
ployes in the Omaha postoffice de
partment will be held within the next
two weeks. One thousand federal em
ployes arc expected to attend the
meeting.-
A resolution asking that the pay of
the men be increased, or that all em
ployes over 60 years of age be retired
on a pension, will be passed and sent
to Congressman Lobeck with the re
quest that he take immediate action,
it is said.
The high cost of living will be the
argument advanced in the resolution.
University of Omaha Sells
Old Redick Home to Beal
The old Redick home, one of the
landmarks of this district, will soon
be but a memory. The building, which
has been used for the last eight years
as a study hall by the University of
Omaha, has been sold to Rudolph
Beal, who will ship it to Minnesota.
The new building, which crowded
the Redick home off the campus, will
soon be finished. President Jenkins
believes the students will occupy the
first two floors of the building by
January 10, when the new semester
begins. The opening of the school
year was originally scheduled for Jan
uary 8.
Wheat Continues to Move
Toward Two-Dollar Mark
Wheat prices on the Omaha Grain
exchange continued their climb
toward the $2 mark, going to $1.92
per bushel. This price was a record
for cash wheat, the previous high
price having been $1.90. Sales were
made all the way from the high point
down to $1.87. The receipts were
fiftv-three carloads and the ruling
price was 1 cent over Wednesday.
Again the demand was enormous,
buying for export being the feature
of the market.

CASH AND BONDS
W. 6. Ure Presents Key to the
County's Wealth to Treas
urer Endres.
FAMILIAR FACES PASS
The "ring out the old, ring in the
new" process at the court house on
the first Thursday after the first Tues
day saw the stars of four county heads
slip below the official horizon, being
accompanied, naturally, by their sa
telites, in the form of appointed em
ployes. And the same chimes that
tolled out the defeated candidates at
the last election, rang into county of
ficialdom four others to take their
places.
The county treasurer's office was
the scene of the greatest activity. In
the presence of other county officials
W. G. Ure, who stepped out of office,
turned over several millions in cash
and securities to County Treasurer
Endres. The total of $4,489,000 in
cluded the following items:
Bonda owned by the Mstropollun
Water board 11,011.000
Caah and securities owned by the
Water board 1.2SI.I7I
Cash and securities. Including;
1100,000 In county warrants 285,229
Cash and securities owned by the
school board 1.1IM08
City cash and securities 1,662,(06
Police relief fund 116,106
When Mr. Ure came into office four
years ago, the total turned ovet to
him was $2,800,000.
Sheriff Clark Enters.
Sheriff Mike Dark and his force of
new deputies swooped down upon
the county sleuth headquarters on
the fourth floor and by noon the
former street car man and his crew
were safely entrenched in their new
stronghold. The new sheriff was
busy all morning receiving congratu
lations from outside friends and
courthousers.
Chief Deputy Foster, the only
"holdover" from the previous admin
istration, found thrust upon himself
the duties of doing most of the ex
plaining in getting the new office
force started.
County Superintendent of Schools
Keenan planted himself in the chair
occupied for the last ten years by
William A. Yoder, whom he defeated
at the polls last November.

Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hah
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 is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it 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 hun
dred times better. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. It is inex
pensive and four ounces is all you
will need, no matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails. Advertisement.
