THE- PEE! OMAHA, ' THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1919. NEW INDUSTRIES ARE PLANNING TO BUILD IN OMAHA i - Carter Sheet Metal Co. Put ting Up Factory Big Paper Mill Company Coming Here.' Unusual industrial activities for the lateness of the 'season are re ported by the industrial bureau of , the Chamber of Commerce. , Plans for a large factory for the Carter Sheet Metal company, pres ent location 108 South Tenth street, have been completed, and construc tion work will begin at once." The new location is at Thirteenth and Grace streets. Cost of the new building is estimated at $50,000. Manager Gillan of the burean also anounced yesterday that the head of a great eastern paper mill would ar rive in Omaha some time this week, looking tor a location on which to build a large factory building. He would not disclose the name of the company, but declared it to be one ot the largest in the country. The paper mill factory will fur nish employment for at- least 100 people, Mr.- Oillan says, and the building which the company plans to construct will represent an out lay of more than $100,000. The new concern will produce principally straw Doard, an important material for packing. Jt is known that more than a score of easttrn industries are plan mug on placing branches in Omaha in the near future. The small num ber of new industries locating here during the ; past year is principally due to the high' price of building material, labor unrest among the building trade unions, and inability to secure suitable locations, it is said. . My' HEART and My HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wi f e What Happened When Dicky Tried to Teach Madge to Drive. 7f Put your foot there 1. No, not on that one, the other one. Now press hard." I felt sure that I had followed Dicky's instructions implicitly. But the car instead of proceeding along the road in a lady-like manner as it had done under Dicky's guidance, shot forward like a piece of shrapnel, and making almost a complete half turn, climbed the bank at the side of the road and started into an open field. I felt Dicky's foot shoving mine from the lever against which I was pushing, sawihis hands tug ging at the wheel, held my breath at the danger of the car's turning over, which even my inexperienced eyes saw. Dicky did not speak until he had the ar back in the road. Then lie dashed his hand across hf forehead, which I saw was wet with perspi ration and broke loose: "For the love of Mike what did you think you were doing? This car isn't trained for any acrobatic stunts like that What did you do anyway?" N I gulped-back my fright, for I wished to salvage a bit of poise from the wreck of Dicky's opinion of my abilities. "If I knew what I did I probably wouldn't have done it," I said de murely. Dicky stared at me a moment I think in uncertainty whether to laugh or frown. But his natural good nature won the day, and he threw back hjs head with one of the heartiest laughs. "That's as good a specimen of an Hiberian bovine as I ever heard," he said when he recovered his breath. "But you certainly balled things up for fair. What's the matter-can't "you understand what I'nj telling you?" His tone expressed keen disap pointment. I took my courage in both hands and touched his arm pleadingly. , - ' . "Promise to listen without inter ruption?" I asked. He looked at me shrewdly.- "Sure thing," he said. Memory Aid. "I hardly know how to say it," I began, "but if you'd just go on the assumption that I haven't a bit of mentality where machinery is con cerned I think I'd get along better. And and if you'd attend to all of those bewildering foot things at first and just let me learn to guide the car I think I'd get along much better." "No you wouldn't," Dicky re turned obstinately. "That isn't the way to learn at all. You have to begin at the foundation. I know what's the trouble. You have't re 's membered that stuff I was telling you on the way up." t had a sudden inspiration. "If I repeat most of it for you you will let me have my way about learning?" . "Sure thing," Dicky said confi dently, and I repressed a mischev ous smile, for my husband has never happened to be present when I have exercised the trained memory which my friends tell me is remarkable, and which I owe entirely to my mother's odd but efficient system of training. . "That's a bargain now, I repeated v insistently. "Now listen, and correct me where I am wrong." ' ' , It was a mere parrot-like repeti tion of DicCy's monologue vyhich I gave back to him, but I tried my best to make it appear something more. Wherever I had the faintest glimmer of what it was all about I broke off and asked some simple question. Dicky listened, amaze ment growing in his face, and when I had finished he snatched his cap off and bowed profoundly. "Weill I've got to slip it to you," he said. "I'd have sworn you didn't remember a thing the way vou took that car up the bank. And I'll stick to my word. You can start on the steVring, but J warn vou I shant let you stick it out long You've, got it all down .too pat for that. It would be a shame not to make you do the other things right away." . , He kept bis promise, however, for OMAHA WILL GET . NEW YORK MAIL VWITHIN 16 HOURS Proposed Aerial Service Beats Trains by Whole Day. r ' ' Omaha will receive mail from New York in 23 hours and 10 min utes shorter time, when aerial mail service Is extended here, than it is now receiving it by trains, accord ing to schedules given out yesterday By Assistant Commissioner xjys, ot the Chamber of " Commerce. At present 38 hours and 20 min utes arc required by the railroads to deliver mail from New, York. The aerial mail will bring mail from the Atlantic seaboard in 15 hours and 30 minutes, if present schedules are carried out. Twelve hours and 45 minutes are required by the railroads to . bring mail from Chicago to Omaha, while aerial mail will deliver mail within five hours and 30 minutes. The shortening of tit'ne required to de liver mail to New iork will mean a great increase in bank clearings to local banks, tf is said. I . Pickpockets Rob Visitors to City, Police Report Two cases of picked pockets were reported to police yesterday. N. P. Crisman of Whiting, la., told police that he not on a Dundee street car with $20 m cash and a certified draft for $50 in his pocket, but that when he-left the car downtown, he had been robbed. ' Charles B. Huff of-Provo. S. D., reported that he had been robbed of $60 which he was carrying in his pocket in a shot sack. Return Another Indictment; , One indictment was returned by the district court grand jury yester day. The name was not given out, pending the arrest. ' a glorious mile or two, during which I for the first time felt what it was likgto have a powerful ma chine obeying the slightest touch of one's fingers. Naturally the car wobbled all over the road at first. Dicky declaring that ouY tracks would look like a "soused-to-the-guards-flivver," but before long I managed to keep respectably to the side of th road. No sooner had 1 accompli.ied this than Dicky in sisted that I learn how to start and stop the car. ' But I soon saw that I would never be able to learn anything about mo tor driving from my husband. He has not the faculty of imparting knowledge, ' and his cocksureness kept him from granting' the request I repeatedly made to let me learn by asking him questions. "What rot!" he finally stormed. "Just because you're a history , shark you think you have the only pat ented system for teaching anything. You're just obstinate, that's all. Now, once for all, take that wheel and start the car." " ' With every faculty fixed upon the instructions he had given me I man aged to get the car started and ran along for some rods smoothly. Then from around a bush-screened cor ner just ahead of us rolled a mag mfiicent big touring car. To' my frightened eyes it seemed headed straizht for me. . I gave the wheel a sudden twist, and to my horror shot almost directly toward the car' instead of away from it. And in that moment of terror I saw in the driver's seat of the other cfcr the man whom last I had seen blind and helpless Maj. Hugh Grantland. (Continued Tomorrow.)) LET "DANDERINE" SAVE YOUR HAIR Hurry! A few cents stops naif falling and doubles its beauty A little "Danderine" cools, cleanses and makes the feverish, itchy scalp soft and pliable; then this stimulat ing tonia penetrates to the famished hair roofs, revitalising and invigor ating every hair in the head, thus stopping the hair falling out, get ting thin, scraggly or fading. After a few applications of "Dan derine" you seldom find a fallen hair or a particle of dandruff, be sides every hair shows more life, vigor, brightness, color and thick ness. ' A few cents buys a bottle of de lightful "Danderine" at any drug or toilet counter. WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WA$H THEIR OWN HAIR They do, not because it is a fad, but because they wish to obtain the greatest possible hair beauty and be mire they are not using anything harmful. They have found that in washing the hair it is never wise to use a makeshift, but is always ad visable to use a preparation made for shampooing only. Many of our friends say they get the best results from a simple home-made canthrox mixture. You can use this at a cost of about 3 cents a shampoo by getv ting some canthrox from your drug gist and dissolving ateaspoonful in a cup of hat water. This makes enough shampoo liquid to apply to all the hair instead of just the top j-of the head, as with most prepara tions. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely disappear in ,the rinsing water. Your hair will be so fluffy that it will look much heavier than it is. Its luster and softness will also delteht you.
