1 THE BEEi OMAHA. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 3, 1920. COUNCIL TURNS DOWN PROTEST ON OPEN SUNDAY Refuses Action on Petition From Women's Societies To Stop Dances and Amusements. New Building to Care For "Light Six" Exclusively The city council voted Tuesday ta , place on file without action a written protest, submitted by rep resentatives of variou organizations of women, and urging that all Sun day commercialized amusement be prohibited. The protest was signed by the following women: Mrs. William Herry, Mrs. H. G. Claggett and Mrs. Mrs. C. T. Roberts, for the Douglas County Woman's Christian Tem perance union; Mrs. C. L. Hempel and Mrs. W. H. Hatteroth, presi dent and secretary, respectively, of the Omaha Woman's club; Mrs. A A. DeLarme, president of Women's Missionary Federation; Mrs. Carrie Ada Campbell, general secretary of the Young Woman's Christian asso ciation; Miss Mary Anthony, super intendent of the City Mission.

Mayor Favors Base Ball. The discussion between the wom and the city officials resulted in 'ome sharp words, Commissioner imman in particular taking a" posi tive stand in favor of Sunday amusements, properly regulated. Mayor Smith addressed the fol fowing remarks to the women: "If you come here merely to protest against the use of city property, such as the Auditorium, for Sunday dances, there would be little doubt but that your request would be honored, but when you ask that all Sunday commercialized dances shall be stopped, you are asking too much. There is no more harm in Sunday dancing than there is in Sunday base ball. I go to Sunday Jiase ball games and holler my head off. I am afraid that if you examine the records of the district court you will find that many of the worst crimes result from Sunday automo bile rides, and yet you would not stop Sunday ' automobiling, would you?" "Awful Things Happen." "You don't know the awful things that happen at these dance daces," said Mrs. G. W. Covell of the Wo man's Christian Temperance union. "I wish to explain that our state law specifically exempts Omaha in the matter of Sunday dancing," ex plained Commissioner Zimman, who has charge of the Auditorium, where a recent Sunday night dance held under municipal auspices had been referred to by the women.

TARRY 240 Bet Building Highjackers Scorn Fruit In Raid on Cellar off Parson While the Rev. Charles W. Savtdge lay peacefully dreaming Monday night of marriage cere monies yet to be, highjackers, in their nightly "canvass for the remaining liquor supply in Omaha, forced two doors at his residence, 2228 Maple street, searched the cellar,' and then de parted, empty hancfed as far as Mr. Savidge knows. According to Mr. Savidge, the gentry of the speedy car, heavy truck and ready gun, ac complished what amounted to almost a safe-cracking job in opening his outside cellar door. .The spring lock, was neatly punched out, after holes had been drilled arouiyl it. They ex amined the contents of his cel . Jar, forced an inner door lead ing to his fruit room, and searched that thoroughly. A large quantity of canned fruit, valued by Mrs. Savidge at $200, which had been moved, bore testimony to their thoroughness, but none of it was taken. It is believed that the high jackers appeared some time after midnight. Before starting their operations on the door they cut the telephone wires on the out side. None of those sleeping in the house was awakened. "What puzzles me," s , V, Subscription Rates to The Omaha Bee By Mail Outside of Omaha. Morning or Evening Edition.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain to much alkali, which is very injuri ous, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thine to use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely jrreaseless. It's very cheap and beats anything: else all to pieces. You can ret this at any drue store, and a few ounces wiil last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with wa ter and rub it in. about a teaspoon- ful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, eteahiy lath er, cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresTi look ing, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.
