Leavitt Urges Sermons
On the Conscriptive Draft
A united effort is to be made by
the ministers of Omaha next Sunday
toward impressing upon the young
men of the city the patriotic charac
ter of the selective draft. Cards have
been sent out by the Ministerial un
ion to the ministers, urging them to
make this the subject of their dis
courses Sunday.
"I am certain," said Rev. F. W.
Leavitt, president of the union, "that
the immediate duty of the pulpit
next Sunday is to sound forth with
such clearness and vigor the patri
otic character of the selective con
scription act 'that not one of those
whom the utmost influence of the
fireacher can reach will be absent
rom the lists on the nieht of June 5."
This duty will be still further
urged at a meeting of the Omaha
Church" federation at the First Bap- ,
tist church this evening, where two
main questions will be considered.
First, What can the churches do of
greatest value to the nation in its
great trial? Second, What is the best
thing our churches can do for the
kingdom of God in the whole world?
"In answer to the second question,"
said Dr. Leavitt, "I think the greatest
thing we could do would be to or
ganize our forces to help the mar
tyred Armenian people who are starv
ing by the hundred thousand. Ten
cents a day will save a life."
The Tire Shop at 251ft Far
nam. is going to get all the
trade that the Bride of Mystery
has in their line. Their superior
equipment and service cinched
the business. Goodyear tires
will have the preference of the
wise miss.
Five Stitches to Mend
Head Cut by a Kick
Ralph Walker, 17, 3322 Lake street,
came to the aid of Harvey, his twin
a fight Vith Mack Cosgrove, 19, 2873
Binney street, Thursday night about
9 o'clock and received a kick in the
head from Cosgrove.
Ratah states that he with some oth
er boys was playing a game of "run,
sheep, run," in the rear of the Ken
nedy school yard when Cosgrove and
his crowd came over and began to
make disparaging remarks. When
Harvey took exception to them, Cos
grove started a fight. Ralph joined
in and Cosgrove turned on him and
after knocking him down kicked him.
Cosgrove then ran and the fight
ended. ' .
Walker is employed as an appren
tice-in the Omaha printing company.

STATE SCHOOLS TO
FACE AHARD TASK
Male Teacher Enlisting So
Fast the Schools Will All j
Be Feminized; Women
Join Red Cross.
Feminization of tKe schools of Ne
braska as 1 direct, result of the war
not only is probable, but now is cer
tain, in the opinion of W. n. Clem
mons, state superintendent of public
instruction. ;
"Male teachers are enlisting for the
war at such a rate that we now are
faced with a shortage of male prin
cipals in every county in the state,"
said Superintendent Clemmons. "Add
to this the fact that our women
teachers are joining the Red Cross
and you will understand-we're going
to have .trouble opening our schools
in September." . . v ; , .
Twelve male principals of high
schools resigned in one day to en
list in the army and there were no
applications for the positions they va
cated. Application of the draft un
der the selective conscription law will
practically wipe out . the remaining
male educators in the public schools,
the superintendent believes.
Ten Women: to One Man.
"It means our schools will be fem
inized," the superintendent said.
"Even now there are ten women to
one man teacher in Nebraska in
some country sections the women out.
number the men fifty to one. Next
vear there will be few. if any, men
teaching. We always have tried to
have male principals and superintend
ents, but it will not be possible next
year. We will have trouble, getting
enough teachers, women or men; and
we are beginning to realize now serr
oils the situation will be. .
"The men are needed to fight and
the front is the place for them. We
would not call tbem back if we could,
but the schools of the state are fac
ing a serious situation."
The superintendent said in a num
ber of high schools and state nor
mals certain courses "had been cur
tailed or abandoned for lack of
teachers. , The high schools of the
' state have given 50 per cent of their
