SOUTH SIDE
RAIL LINES NOW
PREPARE FOR BIG
STOCK SHIPMENT
Freight Cars in Readiness
Awaiting August Run of Cat
tle; Feed and Prices
Are Good.
Railroads in the west are ready tb
handle the fall shipments of cattle,
but shippers are not yet ready to sell
because of the fact that cattle still
are rather soft, according to a prom
inent stockman just back from trips
to South Dakota, Wyoming and west
cm Nebraska. The late rains, have
kept the grass green and feed is good
r.nd plentiful, but has not cured up as
early as usual. Although sheepmen
are inclined to hold up their stock
awhile, prices are especially attractive
and some are shipping already.
Mixed conditions on the range
country and on the markets may re
sult in spreading shipments owl over
a longer period, which will hold the
market in better shape and enable
the railroads to handle the situation
more easily than last year.
Railroads have been urging ship
pers to place their orders for cars
early and, as a result, many of the
railroad yards have strings of cars on
the tracks waiting the movement of
the cattle.

Educational Officers Are Given
Special Medical Training
at the Train
' School. .
Willie broke out laughing during a
special demonstration of public school
medical inspection work, held at Train
school Wednesday for the benefit of
school officials.
Harry had been called upon to
show how a school boy prepares his
toilet in the morning, preparatory for
school, according to the methods
urged by the school nurses in their
talks to the boys and girls. The boy
did very well with most of t,he work
until he washed his neck, which
showed the proverbial line between
the cleansed and uncleanied areas.
Willie espied the line of demarcation
and he laughed out loud.
Forty-seven boys and girls who had
previously been examined during the
school year by the nurses were at
the school for this special clinic. A
girl of 12 years showed marked phy
sical and mental improvement since
removal of adenoids and tonsils last
February. She said that rheumatism
does not bother her now.
Boys Wash Face.
"Rreattitnor thrnno-h thi mouth, due
to nasal affections, causes retardation
of mental growth, maun commis
sioner Manning stated in a brief talk
at the clinic.

and another boy said he hoped to be

"Well, children, if you expect to
fooli-n. vnnr hnnev vnll must have
health, and remember that the road
to health is cleanliness, and also re
member that health is wealth, but that
wealth is not always health," Miss
Townsend told the children.
"li ma Hnes not have to tell me to
wash my face any more in the morn

Superintendent Beveridge and As

Pershing Speaks to
People of America
By Columbia Record
The expression, "a voice across the
seas" is no longer figurative language.
Modern science, as represented in the
phonograph has brought to America
the literal voice of the leader of the
armies of this land, upon a record
created by the Columbia Grapho
phone company.
A part of the history of the war
was made by General Pershing, at
the height of the battle in Picardy,
when at American headquarters he
spoke a brief but stirring message to
the people of this land, urging their
loyal support of the armies in the
field.
The idea which led to the making
of the record came to Guy Golterman
of St. Louis, during a visit to Wash
ington. Mr. Golterman said that
when he looked upon the facsimiles of
Washington's farewell address, the
Lincoln Gettysburg address and other
prized mementos of the history of
the United States, he could not but
think how fine it would have been
if the actual voices of these men could
have been preserved as they gave
these messages to the world, and he
thereupon suggested the plan to the
Columbia company.
The massive copper master record,
brought back through the perilous
sea lanes in an ordinary mail sack,
is to be preserved where it may be
seen, while the reproductions are
heard through the coming years on
every occasion when such a message
might. be needed to stir the people.
This record is to be played at noon
at the Omaha Commercial club for
several days and is on sale by Schmol
ler & Mueller, the local representa
tives of the Columbia Graphaphone
company. .
The Columbia company has re
moved all its profits from this record
and the money received for it is to
be used by the National Forum in
propaganda work in arousing the peo
ple of America to a full sense of their
duty in the present war crisis.
It is approved by the war activities
committee.
