GERMAN SCHOOL
NEAR HENDERSON
Offers Course of Six Weeks'
j Instruction; Will Probably
"2 Furnish Test Case
; Under New Law..
I Aurora, Neb., June 19. (Special
Telegram.) Complaint has been
j made to County Attorney Edgerton
that a private school has been organ
ized on the county line, just
1 J north of Henderson, for in-
t struction in German, contrary to the
provisions of the law passed by. the
; last legislature. Mr. Edgerton and
County Superintendent Nelson have
j investigated and found a condition
j which will probably be used as a
test for the law. .
! " The school has been running for
about a month, the contemplated
i course being six weeks. It is in
J charge of Miss Mary J Regler, who
receives $2 each from 58 pupils for
teaching them their Sunday school
J lessons and songs in German. The
patrons are German-Russian Men-
nonites, who maintain a large
f church and parochial school in the
,1 vicinity, and who have been in
V sistent upon maintaining old
, country standards. Henry Kliewer,
a- brother of one of the preachers

THIN PEOPLE
I SHOULD LiKE ,
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phoaphat. to
Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to IncraaM Strength, Vigor
and Ntrva Fore. ..-
Judging from the countless preparations
-,. and treatments which are continually be
ing advertised for the purpose of mak
, . ing thin people fleshy, developing arms,
neck and oust, and replacing ugly hollows
and angles by the soft curved lines of
health and beauty, there are evidently
, thousands of men and women who keenly
(eel their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are' often due
, to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate ..than ia. contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well as
. the organic phosphate known among drug
gists sj hitro.phosphate, which is inex
pensive and is sold by Sherman 4 McCon
nell in Omaha and most all druggists un
: der a guarantee of satisfaction or -money
back. Dy feeding the nerves directly and
y supplying the body eella with the
. necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro
nhosphate should produce a welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase
, n weight frequently being astonishing.
; : . Increase in weight also carries with it
t general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of
nergy, which nearly always accompany
tueessive thinness, should' soon disappear,
lull eyes ought to brighten and pale cheeks
flow with the bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION : Although bitro-phosphste is
jnsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
ileeplessnest and general weakness,- it
ihould not. owing to its tendency to in
crease weight, be used by anyone who
ioee not desire to put on flesh. Adv.

ton county because he' refused to

him to perform military service.
Peter Dirksen and George Klippen
itein, two young men of the same
community, were among the 133
conscientious objectors released
from Fort Leavenworth by order of
Secretary of War Baker. Sen.
Perry Reed, one of the authors of
the law, lives near Henderson, and
his familiarity with these conditions
was largely responsible for the pas
sage of the bill.
It is understood that the defense,
in case of prosecution, will be that
instruction is confined to religious
subjects, and that the legislature,
in making an exception in favor of
church services in another foreign
language law, justified teaching the
children their Sunday school les
sons, justifies much preparation. The
local authorities take the view, how
ever, that the exception referred to
was for'the special benefit of elderly
people upon whom rigid restrictions
would wbrk a hardship, and that it
was not intended to encourage chil
dren in the continued use of an of
fensive tongue by organizing spe
cial schools for their instruction
therein. The law explicitly states
that "no person, Individually or as
a teacher, shall in any private, de
nominational, parochial or public
school, teach any subject to any
person in any other language than
the English language," and provides
a penalty of from $25 to $100 or a
jail sentence of not more than 30
days for each offense. .

ATTEND OMAHA
BAR FIELD DAY
Woman,4 With Assistance of
Judge Slabaugh, Carries Off
Honors in Horse Shoex
Tournament.
The annual field day of the Oma
ha bar association, held yesterday
afternoon and evening, is pro
nounced the most successful ever
held in Omaha.
Over 150 attorneys and judges
participated in the festivities', which
led from the Chamber of Commerce
at noon to the Happy Hollow and
Field clubs" and Elmwood park and
ended with a banquet and speeches
at the Happy Hollow club last
night. With the exception of seven
judges of the state supreme court,
nearly all were local men.
For the first time in history a
woman was present. She was in
troduced as City Attorney Buell, of
Ashland, Neb., and not only gave a
rousing speech at the banquet last
night, but, with the assistance of
Judge W. W. Slabaugh, carrjed off
honors in a horse-shoe tournament
held at Elmwood park yesterday af
ternoon. Prominent members pf the
bar declared that she contributed
greatly to the success of the day. "
Judge W W. Slabaugh, president
of ,the bar association in Omaha,
presided at both the luncheon at the
Chamber of Commerce and the din
ner at Happy Hollow. Among the
speakers of the evening were Judge
W. A. Rediek, who delivered, an ad
dress of welcome to members of the
bar who had returned from service
overseas; Federal Judge Wood
rough, and Judge R. S. Dean, of the
state supreme court. ;
Returned Officers Speak.
Capt, C F. McLaughlin, who saw
service overseas with the American
expeditionary force, spoke as a rep
resentative of the army, and Arthur
Palmer as a representative of the
navy. Reminiscent stories were
told by Judge George W. Shields.
A motion by Thomas Blackburn
to select a committee to greet over
100 attorneys September 22, when
the legal department of the Ameri
can Life Insurance company holds
its convention in thiscity resulted
in the appointment of James H.
Adams, W. W. Young and Edward
M. Martin.
Base ball during the afternoon
proved an exciting diversion for
Omaha's lawyers, and two teams.
Captained by Ray Crossman and
Jesse Palmer, played two innings
for several hours. When the score
reached 100 on each side it was no
longer kept and at the end of the
second inning the game was called
on account of darkness. There was
some confusion t.'jout the score and
the number of errors perpetrated,
it is said.
Golf completed the triumvirate
of sports which held sway during
the afternoon. -The fact that dark
clouds heaved, about failed to lessen
the enthusiasm of the lawyers, and
all are ready to testify that not a
drop of rain fell to mar the fun.

B. J. Larkin Wants to Put on
Fourth of July Stunts Like
Those Pulled Off in
the Old Days.
Is there enough home spirit in
South Omaha to give a big "blow
out" of the kind that used to be
pulled off in the old days before an
nexation with Omaha, on Fourth of
juiy. :
B. J. Larkin wants to know.
Larkin, formerly coroner, says he
will give $100 if the "old gang will
get together on a distinctly South
Omaha doin's" July 4.
"The time is slipping by," Larkin
said yesterday, "but if these business
men who used to be organized would
get together, and donate a little along
with the co-operation of the pack
ers we could make it the best Inde
pendence Day since 1776."
Biggest in History.
"It should be the biggest celebra
tion in history," the South Side un
dertaker continued. "There ought
to be cans of oil burning all along
Twenty-fourth street. The high
school grounds at J street should
be covered with stands giving away
yes giving away stuff to the peo
ple. "There ought to be barrels of lem
onade, pop; root beer, and even 'near
beer' ready to be handed out. There
ought to be couple of roasted
steers and hogs and sheep, too. I'd
give $100 myself if the rest of the
bunch wduld show up with a little
co-operation."
The packers, Larkin says, will do
nate the steers, hogs, lambs, etc.,
certain well known "soft drink par
lors" will supply the drinks and
maybe the church people will stir
the lemonade. Besides, orators are
plentiful, many South Omahans hav
ing graduated from Creighton Pat
Barrett for one.
Let's have some suggestions.

Workmen's union yesterday an
nounced that the union would hold
an executive session Friday night to
nuke plans for the publishing of a
weekly newspaper to tell conditions
as ine union secs-inem.
"The report of Mrs. E. B. Towl.
public welfare worker, is a farce,"
he said." "Every packing house
worker knows that conditions for
women workers are not the best
they could be. I have seen women
working in the hog killinar floors.
wading in streams of blood. Other
things might be said that would tend
to show up the real problem of the
woman workers.
"At the Swift & Co. olant. where
conditions are supposed to be the
best in the city, the dressing room
for men, used by both colored and
white workers, is so crowded that
if a man leans over to lace his shoes
while dressing he finds his face in
the feet of another workman. 1
"Mrs. Towl may be truthful
enough in her report, but she prob
ably was not shown all there is to
be seen in the killing floors and
elsewhere." He discredited the good
faith of the packers in giving, a
bonus to women for overtime, etc.,
declaring that "they wouldn't have
done it had they not been com
