THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAT. FEBRUARY 9, 1918. r EYES FOR THE NAYY' '. IS URGENT APPEAL field glasses. will be delivered in all leading theaters. A liberal rfsponse followed the drive by naval recruiting officers, but the demand fon binoculars, spy glasses, sextants, telescopes and chronometers is larger than the apparent supply. Omaha citizens have responded lib erally in helping to supply the navy with eyes. W. E. Foshier of the Foshier Auto company, Mrs. R. D. Kirkpatrick, David Cole of the Cole Creamery company, T. M. F. Heu mann of Benson and E. C. Twamfey have all contributed glasses. In ad dition to the glasses delivered to the recruiting station, many have been sent direct to Washington to Assis tant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt. A "careful record of the glasses is kept in order that they may be re turned at the conclusion of "the war and all glasses should be carefully wrapped and tagged with the name and address of the owner. Upon re ceipt at the ship the owners will be notified by whom they are being used and for what purpose. The binocular shortage has handi capped men on the submarine chasers in searching the sea for periscopes of hostile submarines, which necessi tated the present drive for glasses. Following the first appeal more than 6,000 pair were loaned to the navy. Warm Weather Dispels Fear of Coa! Shortage The warm weather of the last few days has relieved most of the anx iety that existed on account of a pros pective coal shortage of alarming proportions. At least this is the sit uation so far as Omaha and its ter ritory is concerned. Mild weather enabled the railroad people to work their switching crews up to capacity, and as a result coal cars that had been laid in on sidings at out-of-the-way stations during the severe weather nave, been pulled .out and spotted at the yards of the con signees. As a result; practically all of the dealers are supplied with coal and while the quantities are not un usually large there is enough on hand to supply the immediate heeds of the consumers. be: Mesdames George Wilson, Abby Suit Case Hearing in Police Court Reveals Family Spats The Suit case was up for hearing in police court Friday morning.
