THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1917.
U. P. BUYS $500,000
LIBERTY BONDS HERE
Former Vice President Fair
banks Will Be in Omaha
Thursday to Boost for
Liberty Loan.
Nebraska's contribution to the Lib
erty loan bonds was given a boost yes
terday morning when President Calvin
of the Union Pacific announced a sub
scription of $S0O,OOO. This will swell
Omaha's subscription, although the
$500,000 will be apportioned in the
state. ......
It was known that the Union Pa
cific would be a liberal subscriber, but
the amount of the subscription was
unknown. It awaited the return of
President Calvrn, who was on a trip
west, inspecting the. lines of the sys
tem. ,
According to President Calvin, the
$5,000,000 subscribed to the second
Liberty loan is apportioned amon&the
states through which the road oper
ates and on the basis of mileage.
Thus the portion available here is
;5oo,ooo.
While the $500,000 subscription rep
resents the share of the Union Pacific,
it does not by any means represent
.iie sum to be subscribed by officials
"id employes. Now that President
. v ilvin has returned, the campaign
' r subscriptions will be immediately
r nugurated. It is not known what
ese subscriptions, will ', total, but
,-era! of the officials are of the
inion that they will approximate
$ .000,000 and possibly double this
i cunt.
Thursday of this week, former Vice
President Fairbanks will be in Omaha
speak for the Liberty1 loan. Details
r to time and place for the speech
'.;rve not yet been arranged.
Sheriff Clark's Men Are Mowing
Down Motorists at Twelve Per Day
An average of twelvl motorists a
day have answered golden rule sum
mons served by Sheriff Clark's depu
ties for violations of the anti-glaring
headlight law. Some of the motorists
evinced a preference to fight their
lases. They are referred to the county
attorney's office.
Others paid a small fine in county
court or, if they could give a good
reason to Sheriff Clark why their
headlights were not properly dimmed,
they were advised as to the law and
released. Sheriff Clark recently ap
pointed two special deputies to patrol
county roads and arrest violators of
the dimmer law. The identity of these
men has not been made,known to Lie
public
"Heavily veiled," caps being drawn
down over their eyes, making identi
fication difficult, but equiped with
proper credentials, stars and golden
rule summons blanks, these myster
ious officers have spread terror among
automobilists who take precautions
inside the city limits but hit 'er up"
and display bright lights while speed
ing over country highways.

ualists, prevailed upon the city com
missioners to postpone action for
thirty days on an ordinance prohibit-,

vestigator reported to him that some
mediums have been selling Jove
powders, charms and others articles

"The real spiritualists, those who
live and die in the .faith," stated U. .
Randolph, "know that those who do
the dirty work are the itinerants, and
the spiritualists are blamed." i
"Mr. Magarrell introduced himself

itualists' union. He asked wherein
was the 'consistency of the city offi
cials allowing Billy Sunday to collect

"Showing
Sister Susie
how to Sew"
is most important, for
Susie's last name is legion.
All over this broad land
she is hard at work sew
ing shirts for soldiers, knit
ting natty neck-warmers,
and often knotty socks
that blister brother Bill's ,
big toe!
Susie is so willing that
the' Red Cross has sent
a committee to Europe to
find out just what kind of
shirts and socks the Sam
mies .would like to have.
,u.u And this committee
.has issued a little picture
book that tells all about
knitting soldiers' socks,
also sweaters, helmets,
wristlets, muflers, wash
cloths and hotwater bot
tle covers. -
This free book tells just
how 'to do it, what size
needles to use and what
kind of wool to get. Best
of all it has a complete set
of beautiful halftone illus
trations that explain every
thing. Since the safety of the
soldiers is on Sister Susie's
.shoulders she shouldn't
