No More Kings or Kaisers in
Two Years, Says C. 0. Lobeck
"I expect to see the end of all kings
and kaisers on the earth within, the
next two or three years," declared
Congressman C. O. Lobeck, in an ad
dress to the Omaha Rotary club
Wednesday noon.
"This country will bring a success
ful conclusion to the war by the force
of its intelligence, courage and united
ness. I want to tell you that the
American people are united today
more firmly than they ever have been.
I have traveled from one end of the
land to the other and this is what I
have found. With a comparatively few
exceptions -we are united as one man.
Much more treason existed in the days
of the revolutionary and the civil wars
than exists today. We are learning to
prize our liberty and independence.
And we will fight to make the world
safe for republics with the intelligence
and devotion which the free institu
tions of our own republic have given
us."

Just a word or two about the KIND
of Women's Suits of f ered at Vi or Less
they're swagger clothes. They're suits that would command im
mediate attention at even the regular prices, let alone at reductions as
radical as those of the "Removal Sale." The line of course includes
those much demanded fine Broadcloths, those Duvatynes, those Wool
Velours, Poiret Twills, etc Some of the models are tailored severely
plain, and others again are dressier, because of the trimmings. Among
the shades are: navys, blacks, browns, greens, taupes and beet roots.
Bear in mind particularly that this is NOT a special line of "Sale'.' gar
ments, but the regular new Orkin stock of suits, in its entirety. ' You ,
women have been bemoaning the scarcity of old-time "popular" prices,
and you'women who have been admittedly hard hit by present high
living costs this IS your chance. (

there.
Many Nebraska farmers will be in
Omaha, November 30, according to
word received yesterday by Manager
Parrish of the Bureau of Publicity
from Arthur Schultz, Scribner. The
purpose of the meeting is to get a
complete report on the soft corn con
dition throughout the state and to
consider means for its utilization.
For some time reports have come
from the north and south parts of the
state that corn was soft and that
much of it was being cf ibbed too i
early. The food administration has
many reports, saying that corn is
souring and will have to be thrown
away.
Warnings have also been sent out
that corn should not be cribbed until
it is thoroughly dried out. An un
usual quantity of moisture in the cobs
is given as the reason for the souring
of corn.
Mr. Schultz is a member of the
Farmers' union and it is quite likely
the meetings will be held under the
direction of this organization. How
ever, all farmers are urged to attend
the meeting, which may possibly last
for two days. Government officials
will probably be in attendance at the
meeting. ,
That the condition of the corn is
serious has been urged for weeks.
The effect that this softness will have
on seed com for next year is also of
moment. The extension department
xf the university has had the matter
under investigation, but so far has
made no definite report, or recom
mendations. Lincolh Home Guards

One-Minute
Store Talk
Two million soldiers and
the clothes necessary to
equip them properly is one
reason for the growing wool
shortage and consequent
higher prices to come.
Every soldier requires in
war-time activity more than
six times the amount of wool
required by men in civilian
pursuits.
Buy clothes for
the present and
future NOW,
while prices are
