"There is no method by which we can reach the legion of individuals, organizations, churches, newspapers, societies, banks, companies and firms whose united effort has provided this great fund for humanity, and if through your press and by other means you can make public expres sion of .our gratitude we shall deeply appreciate the courtesy.

Improvement Club Quits When Officials Lambasted The Summit Improvement club has decided by a unanimous vote to with draw delegates of the organization from the United Improvement clubs. In a signed letter to The Bee by George F. Sheehan and George F. Madison, secretary, the club gives the following reason for its action: "We do not like the way that certain members of the United Improvement clubs have attacked some of the city officials. Furthermore we fail to see what can be gained by everlastingly finding fault and antagonizing certain of the commissioners. We have con fidence that, the present commission ers, if encouraged properly, can do their work as efficiently as anyone else, and possibly better than many of their critics."

The Bees Free Milk and Ice Fund The Right Spirit "I subscribed for Liberty bonds and contributed to the Red Cross fund. I now enclose my bit to the last but not least of funds." That is what Municipal Judge Bald win writes in sending his check to The Bee's fund. It is the proper spirit. In our commendable zeal to help our country in the war we must not over look the helpless babies and small children of the poor of Omaha. The hot weather causes heavy mor tality among babies who do not have pure, cool milk. The Bee's fund is the only way of providing it for thesn poor babies, livery cent contributed goes to buy ice or milk and every case is thoroughly investigated by nurses. Your charity dollar is 100 per cent efficient in The Bee's fund. Send or bring any sum from 10 cents to $5 to The Bee office. It gives you a fine feeling of duty done.
