THE KtSfclV OMAHA. MOMAl, JUL1 i. lyU.' 3 WISNER FARMER DIVIDES PROFITS WITH TWO SONS . IB . F. Breitkreutz Declares "Home Corporation" Big Success on His Farm. "I saw in The Bet some time ?ro," said Et F. Rreitkrcutz, a tiirmer of Wisncr, "tht a farmer liad adopted the scheme of giving his boys a working interest in the farm to keep thcni away from the city and I have found that an ex cellent practice which I put into cftrrt many years ago. "I have two sons, F.arl H., 15 years old, and P'.rvin. 19 years old, v ho in spite of their youth have r n active interest 1 n conducting the home place and with th.-m I share the profits. I let them have all I Vim tnmi u fi i r chi rm nut r ' the place, and they have shown their appreciation by sticking to the farm instead of going to' a city. "I have taught them to study the market and to keep in touch with live stock quotations and to accept bsses as cheerfully as they do the gains. This education has taught them to view stock-raising serious ly and to plan for a method of making profits." Mr. Breitkreutz was accompanied hy his son. Earl, and they brought in two loads of hogs, one of which he said was raised by his youngest on and he said the boy took a great interest in the shipment and was proud of his achievement. 'I am certainly fortunate that 1 have two sons, for without them I would have been unable to run the farmas farm help is as hard to get as a profiteer's chances are to get into heaven. And with the knowl edge that they are working for them selves they do far better work than any hired farm hand, and it is a great pleasure to me to know that the results of our combined work will stay in the family and help build up the farm." The Birthday of a Nation , July 4, 1920, is the ' 144th anniversary of the Declaration of Indepen dence. As flags fly ancT bands play, let us not be unmind ful of the devotion, loy alty and sacrifice which gaveireedomto our coun try.

The Omaha National Bank Farnam at 17th 'Street , Capital and Surplus, - $2,000,000 DELEGATES NOW LOOKING TO THE WHITE HOUSE All Ears Now Cocked Toward Washington for the Magic Word to Break the N Deadlock. 4 (Continued Trom Pace On.) however, some important counselors who were impressed yeste.day by the strength of the antiadministra ticn coalition and the failure of the convention to stampede to the president's son-in-law as had been envisioned by D. Burris Jenkins when he proposed that the party "draft'"the shrinking and reluctant foimcr secretary of the treasury to cany the democratic banner in the campaign. McAdoo May Gain. One f these doubting brethren remarked he did not see how Mc Adoo could, win without New York and I Illinois and that peace must be made with Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany chieftain, and" George Brennan, the' political heir of Roger Sullivan, before victory could be assured. Another opined that if McAdoo could not be nominated the prize would go to , Governor Cox, whose fortunes were so ably pro moted during the 22, ballots ending last, night by Murphy, Brennan and Tom Taggart of Indiana. McAdoo appears destined to gath er in some more votes in the early balloting tomorrow when his chances of success will be further assessed before judgment is pro nounced by the big powers in the convention. The prospect is, how ever, that when more votes go to McAdoo quite as many if not more will go to Cox and to Palmer, thus clouding the situation still further. William IF. McCombs. national chairman in the Wilson campaign of 1912, who is here breathing ven geance on the whole "Wilson dy nasty," predicts the victory of Cox before 2 p. m., tomorrow. George Brennan sees nothing but Cox at this writing and Wilbur Ilarsji, who has been voting the Iowa delegation for Cox since he deserted Palmer on the J2thxbaltot, regards the Ohio governor a sure winner. Taggart likewise is pinning his fait!: to Cox for the present at least and expects to deliver all of Indiana to the Ohio governor nt the start x tomorrow. Strength With Wets. The fundamental strength of Cox outside of hisown state is in such wet constituencies as New- York and Chicago, but the Cox leaders have been encouraged by the support of numerous dry delegations to believe thaL there is widespread sentiment in fne party for moistening the ticket with a nominee of "liberal views" on the liquor issue', particularly in view of the silence of the platform on this issue and the overwhelming defeat of a wet plank in the convention. The Cox forces are (exploiting as a McAdoo liability the boosting of the president's son-in-law by the field agents of the Anti-Saloon League, who are on thef scene, en deavoring to safeguard the cause of prohibition from any ill winds.

Super-Movie Palace Will Be Made of, Old Devonshire House London, July 4.'-De von shire House, the historic ducal residence in Piccadilly, is to become Eng land's super-movie theater. Two business men Shurmer Sibthorp and Laure'nce Harrison have bought the mansion and site for $5,250,000, outbidding John MacE. Bowman, who wanted to build a London Biltmore there. They announce tffcir intention to tear down the mansion and erect in its place a movie theater accom modating 5,000 people, a palatial restaurant' and a huge dancing and assembly hall. "I have the legal right to retain the name of Devonshire House," says Mr. Sibthorp. "It will be the finest equipped and most lavish pic ture house, on New York lines, in this country." The famous - crystal staircase, along , which stately dames and lords in bygone days were accus tomed to pass on great social oc casions, will be retained and used as the ascent to the dancing hall; but tlfe duke is removing the his toric old, windows, 'doors and pan elling." ' Oldest of All Jokes ; Cracke1; Its Framer ' Too Dead to Laugh London. July 4. A practical joke planned by the ancient Egyptains which has taken 5,000 years to come to fruition is revealed by Prof. Flinders Pctrie, the famous Egyptol ogist. v' "White we were trying to find a way. into a queen's pyramid" he said, "we discovered on a rock face a door which was so beautifully and exactly fitted that it was difficult to see the joints. We immediately set to work on this, thinking that we had found at last an entrance to the inner chambers. "After a considerable amount of work w.e removed the door and found solid rockl "It was a carefullyarranged blind to balk anyone who wanted to find the entrance into the royal tombs, and it had been made about 3,000 B.

Ifhas beensjproved that in most cases prostitution is "caused by in sufficient wages. If a girl has the necessary foundation for taking up atrade or profession her salary is bound to be highe, and the incen tive for treading the broad and easy path will not be so great, is the hope of members of the munic ipal board.

HorseJJke Near Beer; Would Krck But Dead Some years ago there was an old character around the race tracks who claimed he knew as much about a horse as the most expert veterinary. The trainers were always calling on himto pre scribe for their horses when they didn't need 'prescribing at all. One afternoon, a colt died in his stall. The old man was consulted and told the horse, was only sick, and the trainer 'wanted to know if he had" a chance. "Not quite sure," replied the Doc. "If he kicks, hell live. Don't think he'll kick."

The preference for commercial school graduates in business was made plain hy an Omaha- business man in a recent conversation. He said an experienced employe in any line of business has of course a very vaulable assft, but his experience by no means offsets a thorough knowl edge of business fundamentals, the graduate of a reliable- commercial college has this most essential knowledge and he is-thercfore given preference in our organization. "The employer of a' large number of stenographers and office workers is constantly on the alert to provide a happy i" skillful operating force, one that really knows how to work. The trained worker adapts himself to business conditions more readily be cause in his schooling he has been prepared to face these conditions. . "The first concern of Boyles col lege is to solve for the student the important problem of making- a liv ing, teaching them to adapt them selves to the ever-changing condi tions of modern business. This is really the. foundation of Boyles training and the large number of suc cessful men and women in Omaha who have received this training is the bet example of what proper training will do. -This school will continue through the summer months in both day and evening sessions." mm Standard Accredited Co-educatiohal - Says Loved Ones Do Not Dream-of Their Beloveds " London, July 4.

He was aware of no evidence, he said, that lovers fre quently dreamed of their beloved. . Most of thed reaming of ordinary healthy people, he went on, had no more ftartent than the shapes im agined in the dying embers of a fire. Apocalupse Manuscript Brings Record Price Taris. July 4.
