Private Automobile
Parking Spaces to -Be
Revoked Tuesday
All private automobile parking:
ipacei in the downtown district will
be revoked by city council at the
regular meeting today. This wai de
cided on yetterday at the meet
ing of the committee of the whole,
"Varioui firmi have put up 'No
Parking' signs without any author
ity',' said Police Commissioner
Ringer. "Nobody has a right to
exclusive use of the streets in that
manner without the authority of the
council. Therefore we will revoke
them all and only grant permits
where such are absolutely neces-
"ne parking ordinances have been
changed so often recently that even
the commissioners don't know the
rules.
"I would like to have someone
tell me where I can park my auto
mobile and for how long, said
Commissioner Ure.
Partly intended as an advertising
novelty, a mechanical calculator has
been invented for figuring the cost
of any ordinary quantity of gaso
line at any price.
Big Sugar Beet Crop
Expected to Minimize
Shortage In Country
With the exception oi the Lin
coln and Omaha divisions, the soil
in all parts of Nebraska has become
too dry for vegetation and cannot
be cultivated to the best advantage,
the Burlington railroad's weekly
crop report issued yesterday, states.
The sugar beet crop, however, is
reported to be in a satisfactory
condition. An abnormally large
acreage will be harvested this year
in Nebraska, and the crop will at
least be normal, according to the
report
The large sugar beet crop is ex
pected to minimize the big sugar
shortage now pervailing through
out the central states.
Not more than half a crop of po
tatoes will be realized by Ne
braska farmers, or approximately
6,500,000 bushels, the report esti
mates. The Peruvian government will
link scattered communities on the
eastern slopes of the Andes by an
aeroplane service carrying passen
gers, mall and freight.
TIHE keenest satisfaction that comes
from owning things is to feel that
the thing you own is of its kind a noted
and noteworthy exemplar. A quality of
the Pierce-Arrow is that no one is ever
in doubt where to place it, whether he M
be the owner of the car or a bystander. fflTWv

TIRED OF GIVING?
"You Don't Know What
Feeling Tired Means"
"In Warsaw, which had not been destroyed, a city
of one million inhabitants, one of the most prosperous
cities of Europe before the war, the streets were lined
with people in the pangs of starvation. Famished and
rain-soaked, they squatted there, with their elbows on
their knees or leaning against the buildings, too feeble
to lift a hand for a bit of money or a morsel of bread if
.one offered it, perishing of hunger and cold. Charity
did what it could. The rich gave all that they had, the
poor shared their last crust. Hundreds of thousands
were perishing. Day and night, the picture is before
my eyes a people starving, a nation dying." (From
a report by the U. S. Food Administration. )

Straw Hat Season Now
Officially Closed
To Classy Dressers
The straw hat season closed yes
terdayabsolutely. In fact, among those of the ultra
ultra fashionable men's set like John
Lee Webster, L. 1 . Kountze, v. vv.
j Hull, Joe Barker and Sam Burns,
i the season closed September 1 and
they put their hay lias aown in wc
well-known moth balls until next
June.
The almanac gives most of the
other important dates, but for some
reason it omits this important one.
It tells us that summer begins on
June 21 and that fall on September
22 and such like important calen
dar events. But not a word about
the end of the straw hat season.
Still it's pretty generally known
when it ends a sort of an unwrit
ten law, you know. And all us
classy dressers buy new winter hats
or have the Greek down at the cor
ner revamp our old one for another
season on Farnam street and the
fashionable boulevards of the city.
Oh, what would we men do if if
weren't for our fashions. How we
dote upon them and how we love to
be always up to the minute! Oh,
indeed we must have always the
"dernier cri" in fashions, as they
say in that dear Paris.
So, off with the hay mat and on
with the soft one, fellers. The
time has come. And besides you
can buy a new felt hat for only
about twice as much as it cost you
last fall.
