OMAHANS TAKEN
IN FREMONT RAID
HAD FALSE NAMES
Investigation Fails to Re
veal Identity of Stylishly
Dressed Couples Arrested
in Rooming House.
Fremont, Neb., April 4. (Special)
Three stylishly dressed young
couples, giving their addresses as
Page, E. H. Monroe, R. L. Thacker,
Bess Brown, Lucile Fox and Grace
Smith, were arrested here in a local
rooming house. After furnishing
cash bonds of $15 each, the men
were released. The girls were not
held.
A partv of 'three votine couoles
claiming residences in Omalia, gave
the Fremont police names which do
not check up, according to investi
cations made yesterday mornincr.
The names given were: H. E.
Wge. E. H. Monroe, R. L. TJiacker.
Jiess Brown, Lucille l ox and Grace
smith. The young people were ar
rested in separate rooms in a Fre-
)iont rooming house.- 1 he men fur
nished bonds of $15each and the
women were released.
Denies Visit to Fremont.
The only "Bess Brown" iiv the
city directory Jives at 427 North
Thirty-eighth street. She stated
Omaha and their names as N. E.
that she had not been in Fremont;
and is of the opinion that some
body used her name for conven
ience. She added that she did not
know Lucille Fox nor Grace Smith.
"E. H. Monroe" is shown in the
directory as a resident at 2210 South
. Tenth street. Inquiry at that num
ber indicated that Mr. Monroe was
at home last night. He was em
phatic in his denial.
It is believed all of the names
given by the parties arrested at Fre
mont were fictitious.
The directory does not show "R
L. Thacker." but "Ralph Thacker"
declared that he was not one of the
party.
little Journeys
in the Garden
The home garden is profitable, for
one reason, because it saves the cost
of vegetables that otherwise would
be bought. It is a healthful enter
prise. It furnishes excellent outdoor
' exercise. It provides vegetables that
are fresher, more palatable and bet
ter than many to be had in the mar
ket. The home-garden vegetables are
always available, to be had not only
without expense, but without incon
venience. Therefore, they are likely
to be used more freely than if a trip
to -market or even a telephone call
were necessary.
But there is still another particu
lar in which the home garden con
fers a great benefit. The boy or girl
who is given a part in cultivating a
home garden, who is charged with
some of the responsibilities and put
to solve some of the problems of
cultivation, acquires in the process
a spirit of self-reliance, a knack of
making the means at hand serve
the end desired, that will be valu
able throughout the rest of that
boy's or girl's life in any kind of
. service that may be required. Tl.us
the home garden is a training school
in personal efficiency.
