Waiting for Word to
Launch Drive for
$1,000,000.
Omaha today is set for the big
jrive which will start Monday. The
..sales committee in charge of the i
. ,;!rive has gone over every bit of de
tail to be as: red that the mam-;
moth appeal for funds to develop
the Ak-Sar-Ben will not be in vain. I
It is the hope of Guy Cramer, chair-
m.vi of-the sales committee, that!
the drive will be a "100 per cent j
-success" by the end of the coming I
Vfflc. I

, charge. Under each "commander"
arc "majors,;' "captains" and "lieu
tenants.'' In all more than 400, all
ff them successful business and pro-
fessional men of Omaha, will take
. part in the drive. The western di
vision of the city is in charge of
,Harry B. Whitchouse. The eastern
. division is n charge of Harvey Mil
liken and Robert Manley.-
Salesmen Will Keport.
Headquarters of the drive in
Room 410, Electric building, and is
in charge of Danny O'Brien, secre
tary to J. E. Davidson, president of
the Nebraska Power company. Mr.
Davidson -is chairman of the Ak-Sar-Bcn
finance committee.
Complimentary noonday lunch
eons will be given for all the sales
. men Monday and Tuesday noon at
12 o'clock sharp in the ballroom of
. the Hotel Fontenelle. At that time
committees will make reports of
subscriptions taken. The salesmen
are urged to attend these noonday
meetings.
There is keen rivalry between the
teams in the drive. The board of
fovernors of Ak-Sar-Ben has offered
1,000 in - prizes to the winning
v teams and Randall K. Brown, king
of Ak-Sar-Ben, has offered $500 in
prizes.
Start Canvass Monday.
Starting tomorrow the 400 sales
men, divided into 26 teams, will be
gin their canvass of the city. Their
motto, according to Chairman
Cramer, will be: '"When you invest
in the Ak-Sar-Ben exposition, you
are making money for yourself, for
you are investing in Omaha."
The stock will sell for $100 a
share and within three years, mem-
bera of the board of governors say,
it is likely that the Stock will bring
from 3 to 4 per cent dividends or
more.
The Ak-Sar-Ben exposition, ac
cording to Chairman Cramer, will
be the only one of its kind in the
United States. It is estimated that
it will bring more than 300,000 per
sons to Omaha every year, and will
aid. in making Omaha a city , of
500,000.
Harries Praised Plan.
j. . "The Ak-Sar-Ben exposition must
j go over the top or Ak-Sar-Ben will
i dle,", said. Mr. Davidson, j "Omaha
; has outgrown the present organiza
tion. Ak-Sar-Ben must keep pace
i with growing Omaha." ,
General George H. Harries, for
merly oresldent of the Nebraska
Power comDanv. who has iust re-1
turned from Borlin, penned the' fol
lowing tribute to the - Ak-Sar-Ben
Saturday:
"Ak-Sar-Ben is an unwearying or
ganization. .What it has done fot
Omaha, and is doing, is beyond pure
ly material computation. Its public
spirited, Omaha-building energies
will now proceed to give the city a
permnent exposition of the first
class, an institution which 'vil add
matcrally to the city's reputation for
entcrprise and at Hie same fme pro
vide the public with wholesome rec
reation. Surely there can be no bet;,
ter community investment -paying
dividends in health, education, good
citizenship and widely-distributed
increase of Omaha's income."
Holding Power of the Junior
High School Upon the Pupil
By EDWARD HUWALDT.
(MimlKT Omaha Board of - Education.) j
Probably the most convincing ar- !
Kinncnt in favor of the Junior High '
school is that it holds pupils in j
school better than the traditional
school organization. We have i
available some statistical records in
representative cities where the
Junior High school is an integral
"part of the school system Grand
Rapids, Mich., is a city in which
school attendance was kept up to
a very high standard even before
the institution of the Junior High
school. There the elementary school
enrollment remained practically sta
tionary from 1908 to 1916, the in
crease being almost entirely -in
trrades 8 to 12, inclusive. Junior
High schools were established in.
Grand Rapids nv 1912. v Not all
seventh and eighth grades were at
once assigned to the new schools.
The enrollment'in the seventh grade
" .-emained about the same until 1913,
hen it began to grow by leaps and
bounds after feeling the effects of
the Junior High schools. The eighth
grade had hardly been able to hold
its own until 1914 when the effect
of the Junior High school began
to be felt. -The increase in enroll
ment in this grade between 1913 and
1916 was 30 per cent.
Another case is that of Macomb,
: In this city the Junior High
school was established in 1916, the
, 'results' showing in 1917 in the
seventh grade. The enrollment in
the seventh grade had been at a
standstill while the population of the1
, city has been slightly increasing
as shown by the enrollment in
prades. 1 to 6. The following are
v the results:

In Springfield, Mass., as soon as
the Junior High school was estab
lished there was an increase in en-
rollment of the seventh grade of
17.3 per cent over the preceding
- vear, while the sixth grade only in
- :reased its enrollment 2.4 per cent.
The increase in the eighth grade en
rollment was 22.S per cent over the
preceding year.

De Valera is generally known as
the "President of the Irish Repub
lic." Many stories have been related
of the daring escapes he made from
British prisons. After being elected
to the presidency he escaped to the
United States. Mr. Boland, who
will be here with De Valera tomor

assigned the task of releasing his
chief from Lincoln prison, which
was guarded by the British.
Boland Directed Election.
"While 46 of the Irish republican
leaders, including De Valera, were
in prison, it was Boland, himself
sought for by the police throughout
Ireland,, who directed the entire re
publican election campaign in No
vember and December of last year,"
said Liam Mellow, who . was here
yesterday as the personal represent
ative of De Valera.
"This campaign," he added, "re
sulted in victory for the establish
ment of a republic and the election
of 73 Sinn Fein, or republican, par
liamentary candidates, out of a total
of 105. Boland, known throughout
Ireland as 'The Fiery Gael,' was
among those Irish patriots who car
ried a rifle during the rising of
Easter week, under the command
of Padraic Pearse, first president of
the republic, who was executed by
the British. ;
Boland in Prison.
"In British prisons for ten months
after the revolution, Boland carried
on a daily and systematic protest
against bejng treated as a criminal,
demanding the status of a prisoner
of war, which was afterward con
ceded to all the prisoners. On one
occasion he knocked down six
warders and was'finally subdued by
a dozen reinforcements. They
clasped handcuffs on him, but when
he arose he felled two more with
his hands cuffed together.
"For ten months he lived iiu Ire
land and conducted the daily af
fairs of the entire Sinn Fein organ
ization .while every detective and
policeman had orders to capture
liini. dead or alive. He slept on
roots, in garrets., in fields and any
other spot in which he could rest
bis- head in safety for a few hours."

the Irish cause.
The'hog market recorded a alight
raise in prices Saturday with a light
run of receipts. Prices were quoted
zX from 15 to 23 cents over Friday's
prices, the bulk selling at a trifle
over $12 a hundred.
A little over 2,000 hogs were re
ceived with the demand from buy
ers light. Quality is said to have
shown but little change.
Receipts for hogs show a light
gain over the same period a year
ago, the total for this week being
26,700 head, compared with 22,000
head last week and 22,400 head for
the same days last year. '
Last week developed another oc
casional low spot in the stocker and
feeder cattle trade, which comes
at intervals during the season. An
advance in prices for cattle the first
day of last week on top of the
relatively high prices of a week ago
checked the country outlet, and with
liberal receipts cattle have been pil
ing up in the pens until there are
now thousands of them that will
have to be carried over until this
week. Prices have been on the down
grade since luesday, ana values are
now $1 lower than those quoted
Monday.
Friday showed a liberal run of
cattle with receipts estimated at
335 loads, or 9,000 head, which was
the largest Friday run seen here this
season.

"The Velvet Hammer," New
Editorial Feature in the Bee
A most attractive and entertaining feature of Intense local Interest
will be "The Velvet Hammer," a series of poetical cartooni on well
known Omaha people which will begin In Monday's Bee and continue
daily as an editorial feature of the paper. . . ' .
The poems are of four stanzas each, taking the prominent figures
of the city's business and social life one by one as subjects, and dealing
gently and humorously with their well-known characteristics, fads,
fancies and foibles. The poems are not satiric and are not caricatures,
the author disdaining to use this familiar and easy method of making
a point or displaying wit, the finest wit aiming shafts that are without
sting.
The author, Arthur Brooks Baker, has a country-wide reputation
for putting into rythmic and lilting verse hits or take-offs on prominent
personages, and tempers them with the homely and gentle philosophy
of a James Whitcomb Riley. , .. .
A glimpse into this garden of humorous poesy, revealing the names
of the first of those to be tapped by hit "Velvet Hammer," as the
author calls his verses, will excite anticipation, not only among the
personal friends and acquaintances of the subjects, but through the
city and countryside at large, as all are public characters familiar to
those who read the daily prints. ..-...
v The first will be William A. Rourke, Omaha s ba4e ball magnate;
the second, Superintendent John H. Beveridge of the public schools;
the third, Everett Buckingham, and then W F, Gurley, William F.
Rigge, Charles Edward Black, etc.
This is sufficient for the time being. The first poem will appear
Monday, on the editorial page of The Bee. -

Dr. W, J. McCrann has written a
response to the resolutions adopted
iy the Iowa Presbyterian synod at
Des Moines last week protesting
ligaiuflt. the recognition of Eamonn
De Valera, president oi the Irish
reoublic.
The resolutions, as adopted by the
synod, said that De Valera did all
in his power to hinder the govern
ment of the allied nations in their
prosecution of war and that they
would ask the president and th
senators of the United States'not to
recognize De Valera. His response
follows:.
, "Love Thy Neighbor."
"In response to our Presbyterian
synod in session at. Des Moines,
notwithstanding their their highly
Christian sentiment, I would say
that all true followers of the Naza
rene aimed to show a brotherly love
and affection to their fellowmen
and one another. His first com
mandment caled for 'Love thy neigh
bor as thyself,' and lo and . behold
these assembled Presbyterians, en
joying the wonderful blessings of
liberty, equal rights and oppor
tunity of our nation, have resolved
to deny it to others. To deny the,
three great features of our country,
or in other words, the three principal
facts that lifted the unknown boy
of the log hut in the hills of Ken
tucky from obscurity and made him
master and ruler of a nation's cap
ital as well as the nation itself
-Abraham Lincoln, a man that saw
in the minds and hearts of the slaves
a just right for freedom and went
forth and secured it for them.
Was No Betrayal.
"Yet in these days of civilization
we read resolutions adopted by the
Presbyterian synod denying that to
their fellow men in Ireland and
writing resolutions not only un-
, friendly, but belying and misrepre
senting their neighbors. That there
, was a Judas among - the disciples
does not mean that they are all trai
tor"-

eral Haig in France and at the bat-
years ago and the records show
that since their establishment the
increase in enrollment in the
seventh, eighth and ninth grades is
25 per cent greater than the increase

If the Junior High school will hold
pupils in school in other cities it

this reason we ought to establish
them in tiU city. .
