Card Party.
r Holy Name parish will give a
card party Thursday afternoon, at
their Hill at Forty-fifth and Buc
tfette streets.
The pasteboard slips' which ad
mit the public to the performance
of "Fi-Fi of the Top Shop," which
will be given Saturday, May 17,
matinee and' evening at the Bran
deis, will also be a ticket to the
"Never," Never Land." Mr. Paul
Griswold as the Man in the-Moon
is not as gossip contends "as cross
as a bundle of sticks." Instead he
is a' most debonaire and altogether
charming gentleman, who is visit
ing the earth in search of new ad
ventures and he persuades Mrs.
Rollin Sturtevant as the fickle
"Fi-Fi," the finest French doll in
the toy shop, to elope with him to
the Milky Way.
This she does,' but she is pursued
hy her irate lovers, Hart Jenks, as
Lieutenant Tinhart, and Philip
Downs as Prince Lollypop, and
other inmates of the toy shop who
are not going to let a light minded
rival like the Man in the Moon get
ahead of them. The entire ,toy
shop then -goes in search of their
frinH ani all mpet with manv ex
citing adventures in Toyland. The
entire program of musical extrava
ganza is most interesting. ,
Tim nfav will be eiven under the
auspices of the First Central Con
gregational cnurcn ana renearsais
are being held at the church every
day. The seat sale opens Thursday
at 10 a. m. Advance tickets are
going like hot cakes and indications
point to a crowded house for both
matinee and evening.
.Victory Loan
Notes
Miss Letitia Hambright, in.charge
of the booths in the City National
and the Omaha National banks for
the Victory drive, nas proved to be
one of the most successful booth op
erators in Omaha.
At the opening of the campaign
Miss Hambright was in charge of
the City National bank building and
sales there were large fronvhe first
day. The booth in the Omaha Na
tional bank was less fortunate. The
first few days of the drive business
was so poor that those in charge of
the booth decided it was of no use
to. keep it open further, so closed
shop, much to the distress of the
president of the bank and the ex
ecutive committee of the woman's
dfvision. '
An S. O. S. was immediately sent
out to Miss Hambright: "Would she
take charge of both booths in the
emergency." Miss Hambright con
sented, even though the corisent
meant a double amount of work.
From the first day of the new man
agement the booth in the Omaha
National succeeded. The first day
totaled $2,000, then $3,000, $4,300,
andso on at this pace each day
until the end. The bank president
was so delighted with the showing
of his booth that each day the work
ers were entertained or invited to
lunch with him. Today the Omaha
National bank booth is a leader in
sales reports with a. total of $25,500
to its credit and the total sales for
the two booths under Miss Ham
bright and her helpers represents
$38,100. Miss Hambright has been
assisted by the following women:
Mesdames W. L. Guild, T. A. Downs.
John tiolden, W. N. Clark, J. E
Bryan, C W. Banning, J. H. Hine

Nothing is more sacred in business to us than the honor of the "HOUSE
OF HARD ROLL BREAD." We have given it the BEST we have-and
have trade marked its name, its formula and its goodness and .placed our -name
upon it as a guarantee that it is the REAL, the GENUINE ' i .
And you, too, Have eiijoyed its goodness, for today we bake more HARD ROLL BREAD tKaS
all the breads that are baked by any TWO NEBRASKA bakeries combined.
To our surprise, an out-of-town baker, who operates an Omaha plant, who owns and ad
vertises nationally his favorite brands and warns others against imitating HIS products
picturing fines and prisons as the penalty has thrown down his coat of honor and turned to.
the ranks of the defeated marking time under the flag of the imitators, with men who sing
as their Te Deum, the song of "The Just as Good Kind."
His "back to the wall MAILED FIST" fi ght is aimed at you. He admits that HARD
ROLL BREAD is the BEST on earth-but still he wants yon to buy his imitation, yet he will
, not put his name to his crime. ' ,
