AID TO RECRUITING Omaha Rotarians want a mobiliza tion camp for Omaha. Following a talk by President E. C. Henry, in which he urged the club to get behind the movement and pledge the co-operation of the other civic or ganizations of Omaha, the Rotarians unanimously adopted a resolution ask ing the government to make Omaha one of the mobilization points at which the great army of the United States is to be mustered into service. 'The middle west must he aroused." declared President Henry. "A mobili zation camp in Omaha will be a great aid; it will arouse the interest of the middle west and the patriotism so that this part of the country will do its share. The middle west is lacking in this respect today." Telegrams containing the-iirnatures of every Rotarian at the meeting Wednesday noon will be dispatched to Washington, urging that a qamp be established here, not only because Omaha is a point of advantage, but to arouse the spirit of the middle west. lowm Notee.

On that date was established a standard in city traffic performance that promises to endure. To cover 586.8 miles through dense Chicago traffic in 24 hours is no mean feat. To do it with a stock 7-passenger touring car, carrying 4 pas sengers, on high gear only, without motor stop, and making 14 miles to the gallon of fuel is a superlative performance. Chalmers accomplished the feat with case. It did it because of the quality ofits motor, the excellence of its design, the thoroughness with which it is built. Thus is proven the flexibility that a motor car owner of today demands. Thus is insured that economy that ap Tourtni Car, 7-retrir Touring Car, S-pAaacngq Cjae. R.
