CHURCH women's SOCIETIES ARE SCOREDJY REAM Speaker at Methodist Centen ary Meeting Says They Have More Influence Than Whole Crowd of Ministers. Leaders of the church women's societies, who would "rise up in pale wrath," if anyone suggested that their sons should enter the foreign mission service were severely ar raigned by Rev. G. F. Ream, chief speaker at the women's section of the Methodist centenary meeting, held Tuesday afternoon in the Frist Congregational church. "You women have more influence than a whole crowd of ministers in creating the proper atmosphere for the promotion of life service. Wo man has a commanding position in recruiting the new generation of leadership in the church. Your voice may not be loud but it is tre mendously powerful in effect," Dr. Ream told the women. Want Many Workers. A total of 53,000 young people are aked to consecrate their life to ser vice in the next five years of the centenary movement, according to the speaker. Thirteen thousand are desired to give their whole time in home and foreign missions and 40, 000 are trained laymen who will give a margin of their time to church work. "We want to raise up a body of church supporters who will know something about church work, so that the preacher of a church won't have to 'argufy' with his board every time he wants to buy a new broom for the janitor. "One-seventh of one's time, one tenth of one's money and one-tenth of one's children, the young people m the church, is the call of the Methodist during the centenary movement," he" said. Sumner Vinton, missionary work er in Burma and Japan, paid tribute to the work of missionary women in the uplift of girls and raising the standards of living among natives in foreign fields. "The teachers in the missionary schools have along with book knowledge, imparted new standards of physical cleanliness leading to moral cleanliness. They have done what men could never do," he said. Publication of Thefts Aids Private Sleuths, Police Authority Says Publication in the daily news papers of automobile thefts and rob beries really expedites the early re covery of stolen cars and goods, ac cording to Police Captain Heitfeld. In reply to a statement that the po lice department was keeping reports of automobile thefts, robberies and holdups from the press until the city police get action on the cases, Cap tain Heitfeld said: "Private detec tive agencies learn of automobile thefts and burglaries from the papers before the detective depart ment gets action on the cases, and in many instances recover the stolen cars and goods before the city de tectives begin work on the cases. For that reason we are obeying the gen eral orders from Chief Eberstein that 'nothing be given to the press until the detectives get action on the cases.'" In the month of January, 1918, when the press had access to bur glary and automobile thefts immedi ately after reports were made at the station, it is shown that more than 50 per cent of stolen cars and goods were recovered; in the month of January, 1919, with the ban on against newspapers, less than 10 per cent of stolen cars and goods have been recovered, Omaha Schools to Get Tools from Government Tools and equipment for the new High School of Commerce and other schools of the city may be se cured from the government.

Eventually, it is believed, these could be bought at a very low price.
