THE BEE: OMAHa, FRIDAY, AUGUST 24. 1917.
WOULD TAKE HIS .
, BROTHER'S PLACE
Young Fellow Declares Hi3
Brother Better Able to
Support Mother and
Children.
Unless work progresses fast when
the district . board starts on its ex
emptions' the first 30 per cent of the
Nebraska draft troops will not be
ready to enter the cantonment camps
qrf time.
The first date as set by Provost
Marshal General Crowder is Septem
ber S. This would give the 'board
but two weeks to look through all
of the claims and decide on each in
dividual case.
The state board is now located hi
rooms in the court house and has be
gun its work. .All of the members
are ere now and are ready for work.
To Take Brother' Place.
A ifraooine voune fellow asked for
the board's permission to take his
brother's place in the army. The two
brothers have, a widowed mother and
four brothers "under "J6 "who are all
dependent on Hiem for support The
boy that was drafted is earning $125
per month, while the other is earning
but $60.
"My brother has just had an opera
tion and is in rfo fit condition to go
in the array, while ' I am strong and
perfectly willing t6 take his place,"
the brother said. ''"Besides he can
earn a better living for mother, and
the other children and keep them in
better circumstances. I have a pretty
good job, but it would take quite a
while to work up to where he is."
"We were mighty sorry to refuse
boy with as mudi red blood in his
veins as this one," said Chairman
Cones, "but there was no way in
which, we -could allow the substitu
tion." Polish Boya Turned Down.
Many Polish boys are coming be
fore the Fourth district board and
begging to be allowed to join the
array, but are refused because of be
ing alien enftnies. They have taken
out their first papers and are voting
under the laws of Nebraska, but when
it comes io.figltting there is no way
in which they can get in.
"It is too bad that they cannot fight
for the country which they call
home," stated a member of the board.
Two hundred more men Lave been
called by the Fifth district and will
Je examined in the Army building on
Sunday and Monday, The district has
certified the last Jist to th district
board until they can decide on the
men just called who will finish the
quota.. The names are published be
low: Called For Service in Fifth District.

Sme Money Now On
Hudson Super-Six
Many former $1200 to $1400 cars now cost about as much as a Hudson
Super-Six. '
Price has always been a fairly ac
curate index of quality. But just
' now, because of the headlong rising
z of material costs, price is not a true
indication of value. Fifty-one cars
.have been forced to advance prices
; 20to25. :
' The - present supply of Hudson
Super-Sixes is built from materials'
contracted last year. Since then ma
terial costs have almost Moubled.
.When that supply of materials 'is
exhausted, then, Hudsons, too, must
cost more. By prompt buying you
' can 'save the difference between
what a Hudson Super-Six now costs
, and what it must certainly have to

"Good morning," smiled hjs honor.
"Did yon leave your car in such a
place as to violate the crosswalk or

see, it was this way. My wife asked
me to wait for her a minute while
she went in to shop. I was willing
to do that But she was gone far
longer than a minute I wouldn't try
it again." '
"Well, evidently you haven't been
married very long," declared Judge

your wife to do 'a little shopping' I
think you had better find a safe place
where the time isn't limited. You are

association demonstrated its em-;
ciency yesterday and inside of three
minutes it had a dozen ponce officers
on hand, armed and prepared to rap.

Shortly after noon, by accident, one
of the paying tellers pushed one of

the police station commenced to ring.
Into the automobile a dozen police
officers tumbled and sped away to
the Conservative, fracturing all of the
speed laws.
Arriving at the othr.es ot the ioan
company, they surrounded the build
ing, guardm doors and windows,
and then, with drawn revolvers, three
of them walked in, expecting to cap
ture a bank robber red-handed. How
ever, they were informed by Paul
Kuhns that it was all a mistake. .

OMAHA SCHOOLS TO
OPEN SEPTEMBER 4
Superintendent., Beveridge An
nounqes Programs Inci
dent to Start of the
Fall Term.
On account of Monday, September
3, being Labor day, the Board of
Education announces that the
schools will be opened on Tuesday
morning, September 4.
Superintendent Beveridge has
called a general teacners' meeting
for 9:30 a. m., September 3, in the
auditorium of Central High school
He expects to meet the supervisors
next week for a special conference.
Medical inspection of children will
be held at the schools next week, ac
cording to a schedule already an
nounced. ,
Socialized Recitation,
"'the ""socialized recitation" will be
encouraged by Superintendent Bev
eridge. This method of stimulating
the child s individuality in the class
room has been recognized by some
teachers and its success, has been
so marked in Omaha and Other cities
that the superintendent' will urge its
general use. In explanation of the
subject he said: "It has been found
that the socialized recitation adapts
itself with best results to the children
from the fifth to jthe eighth grades
and i particularly to history and
geography lessons,
"Instead of the teacher asking the
questions, a mental reaction is set in
motion among the children by hav
ing one child, and then another, ask
questions of the other children. This
method serves to give the children a
better use and expression of English,
makes them more self-reliant and
makes them more alert. They get
away from the idea of laming mere
ly by rote, their imaginations are
stimulated.nhey learn to be indepen
dent thinkers, and they learn to have
reasons for knowing what they know.
The lessons are made interesting."
Notice to Pupils.
The following statement has been
made by the superintendent in con
nection with the opening oj schools:
"All freshmen who are just en
tering the High School of Commerce
and who did not come to the school
with their eighth grade class in June
should register Monday, August 27.
Pupils who are coming from ahy
schools other than the Omaba public
schools should bring their eighth
grade diplomas.
"All pupils who are transferred to
theHigh School of Commerce from
other high schools should register
Tuesday, August 28, and should bring

the present material market
When former cheaper cars could
be bought at $200 to $300 less than
the Super-Six, no two of them had
sales egual to those of the Hudson.
That snows how popular the Super
Six has always been as compared to other
cars. It is easy to imagine how
much more" popular it will be now
that there is no such price advan
tage. The Hudson . Super-Six has
made itself the wanted car as com

It is the largest selling fine car.
