OMAHA, NEBRASKA a Just Why Omaha Is Omaha Nebraska as a banking state, ranks third per cap ita of all the states in the union. Omaha, as a banking city, ranks eleventh per cap ita, while in population it takes the thirty-fourth place. , .There are only two states ahead of us in bank rating. They are North and South Dakota. Nebraska, with its 1,333,000 people has 1,120 banks, or one bank for each 1,208 people. - Taking Texas, for example; the state has 4,565, 000 inhabitants and only 1,462 banks, a proportion of 3,122 people for each bank. The high bank standing of the state naturally means a lot to its citizens and tells a tale of untold wealth, prosperity and thrift. Nearly as high as Nebraska ranks as a banking state per capita, our home state ranks in savings. Nebraska stands fifth among the states of the union in membership in building and loan associations in proportion to population. It is only outclassed by Ohio, New Jersey, the Dis trict of Columbia and Pennsylvania. Our state with its 1,333,000 people has one mem ber of a building and loan association to every 13.2 people, or in other words, 101,929 citizens of Nebraska are members of such organizations. Few cities, twice the size of Omaha, can boast as many public welfare and commercial organizations. There are 24 bodies in Omaha, covering nearly every line of business and commercial enterprise. First of all, there is the. Advertising Selling League, one of the most important commercial organi zations in Omaha. ' Next in line are the -Associated Retailers, always in line for the welfare of the city and the principal or ganization behind the Spring Dress-Up Week.; Do yoo know OMAHA ha the largest pharmaceutical and physi cian' upply house wet of Chi' cago?

Peters Mill Company OMAHA. Many Reasons The Building Owners' and Managers' association and the Business Men's association overlook no oppor tunity to do something for Omaha. The Omaha Automobile Trades association and the Omaha Auto club, which recently staged the great est automobile show this part of the country has ever seen, are at all times co-operating with the city's administration to further the "Safety First" movement. Naturally the center of the co-operative business interests of Omaha are centered in the Chamber of Commerce, of which nearly every business man in the city is a member. ' The Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben, the Omaha Hotel Men's Association, the Omaha Woman's Club, The Ro tary Club and the Y. M. C. A. state headquarters, ex tend their prestige and influence throughout the state of Nebraska and play an important part in the state's and city's immediate history. Naturally there are a number of trade organiza tions, suclj as the Master Plumbers' association, the local branch of the National Association of Building Owners and Managers, the Omaha Electrical Employ ers' association, Omaha Retail Grocers' association, the United Typothetae and the Franklin club, all of which are a power in the city. Community associations include the Nebraska Bankers' association, Omaha Builders Exchange, Oma ha Grain Exchange, one of the most important in the country; Omaha Livestock Exchange, and the Union Stock Yards company. In a class all by itself, is the Omaha Association of Credit Men, which serves the community through its many members and regulates the credit system. All of these organizations mentioned directly fur ther the interests of the community and by joining the one or the other you help Omaha and yourself. Fairbanks, Morse & Co.
