W.W. Head to Talk
To Manufacturers
Will Discuss Financial Situa

Meet December 7.
An address by Walter W. Head
on the "Financial ' Situatfon," will
open the eighth annual convention
of the Nebraska Manufacturers' as
sociation in the Hotel Fontenelle,
December 7 and 8.
"The opportunity to hear first
hand just what the real conditions
are and how they are likely to ad
just themselves, is eagerly antici
pated by manufacturers all over the
state," said the association secre
tary. v , ,
To Answer Questions.
"It is difficult to learn the exact
state of money conditions, whether
or not they are getting better and
whether the reserve banks arei
loosening up in the matter of credits
and loans.
"Mr. Head being a banker of
wide experience, and being officially '
connected with various financial in-;
stitutions is eminently qualified to
give something really authoritative
along this liner and we are Isure
that if the manufacturers have any i
questions to ask, in regard to finan-
cial matters, Mr. Head will be glad
to answer them." 1

If the Day's Work
'Does You Up'
Try Cantilever Shoes
Cantilever Shoes are so comfort
able that they afford great relief
from the "done up" feeling ihat
follows much walking or standing.
Cantilever Shoes are restful be
cause they are built to encourage
correct carriage. 1 he heel is Blight
ly higher on the inside than on the
outside. The weight of the body,
instead of falling on the weak point
of the arch, is shared by the heel,
the ball, and the outside of the foot
This proper balance helps to prevent
fallen arches. .'
There is plenty of toe room. ' The
toes .point straight ahead in their
norhjal easy position.
The flexible shank allows the mun
cles which surround the bones of
the arch to exercise and keep-stronx.
Cantilever Shoes thus preserve the
natural strength of the foot arch.
By wearing these shoes you protect
yourself against a widespread ail
ment weak arches.
And in combination with all these
features for comfort and health,
Cantilever Shoes possess good looks.

I have been shopping for brides.
There are several Autumn and
early Winter brides on my Christ
mas list this year, and the selec
tion of gifts has been as easy as
It is pleasurable.
Notions
Brides are full of them. Near ,
ly always, at one time or an
other, they get the idea of never
touching silver and glassware j
with anything but the purest ot
linen. So I bought yards and
yards of linen , toweling with a
pretty bar check in it, and I'm
hemming; glass towels by the
dozen. Not to be too practical,
though, I bought several of those
Madeira hand embroidered pieces.
They are of pure linen and their
exquisite embroidery speaks re
finement and richness as only
linens of their quality can do.
Dazzling
Bungalow aprons are a neces
sity; also, from brand new hu
band they get more admiration
than the most brilliant of evening
gowns. Their crispy freshness,
together with a flashing smile of
greeting sustained by conscious
ness of newly assumed duties well
done make a combination few real
new husbands ever resist. I
found them on the third floor with
the bouse dresses and kimonos.
Whims of Brides
Are often manifested in humor
ing the whims of benedict hus
bands. I thoughtof this when I
saw those smoking sets in the.
Art Department There are smok
ing stands, ash trays, match
holders, humidors. Of course, If
the bride wants to please her hus-
band and save her draperies, too,
she can. set up a
, Barrage
Of OrlentaHncense. The burner 1
bought was a miniature TeiAple of
, Jr Buddha with pretty windows and
Oriental decorations. Chinese
characters in gold give It the
mysterious charm of antique pot
tery. Cozy -
Electric Heaters a conveni
ence that solves many heat prob
lems. They keep the rooms com
fortably warm when it is not quite
cold enough for the furnace. -They
are useful, too, in the bathroom,
or any place 'where the general
heat supply is insufficient.
Open Fireplace
A display arrangement that car
ries a clever suggestion is a
heater of the two-coil size mount
ed on heavy andirons as an arti
ficial heat element in the fireplace
they have not only the cozy
warmth ot the wood fire, but they
are a complete solution to the ash
and dirt problem the brides so
desperately fear. They do not ex?
haust the oxygen in the room,
cause injurious gasses to form or
send off any sooty vapor .to spoil
pretty draperies.
Harmony
For the day is made or spoiled
at breakfast time. Particularly is
it made. One ot the best har
monics I can think of is pure
amber colored coffee with thick
yellow, cream. Another is crisp,
brown toast and pure gold-en but
ter. They are sure always to be
just' right If the breakfast table is
fitted with an electric percolator
and electric toaster and some ot
the etectrio chafing dishes have
individual aluminum cups tor
poaching eggs!
Wrinkles
They come from getting tired
a thing no bride has any business
to do. Especially when there's a
whole department on the fifth floor
devoted Just to saving them from
drudgery. Vacuum sweepers and
electrlo washing machines have
lifted a life-long burden from their
pretty shoulders and add to this
the blessing ot nicely washed
clothes and neatly kept rooms
and who can see anything ahead
for these brides but the greatest
ot happiness?
