Caused Wide Comment.
When asked what explanation had

Your Face and
Ml
Investigate the Hands in Connection With Charac
ter Indications in the Face What Short and
Long Fingers Mean.
FACES of employes form only
one of the guides for employers
trying to-place men and women
in the jobs for which they are best
fitted. Other signs, found in the
general body structure, are to be
considered.
Some of the most important of
these indications are found in the
hands. Some of the phases of this
branch of character analysis were
covered in the article last Saturday.
Other details are offered here.
What Short Fingers Indicate.
The person with short fingers
should not be put to work which re
quires close attention to detail.
Look over your subordinates who
are dissatisfied with their work, or
not especially satisfactory to you in
the way they "follow through," and
sec if the short-fingered person is
on a detail job and the long-fingered
person is on a job with no detail
to it. .
Try changing, their jobs and see
if they, are not soon happier and if
their work doesn't show up better.
Other things about them being
equal, the experiment will undoubt
edly work out as stated here.
It is a common impression that
tapering fingers show artistic talent.
This is not true. 'A tapering hand,
with tapering fingers, indicates
merely the appreciation of artistic
things. It certainly does not show
the plodding ability necessary to ar
tistic creation. The hand of the cre
ative artist is generally the spatulate
hand.
Another interesting point, and one
that is easy to ooserve, is the con
sistency of the hand. 'In shaking
hands with your friends notice
whether their hands are flexible.
. Soft va. Firm Hands. ,
The hand that is extremely limber
and soft, seeming to melt into yours
as you grasp it, is one to beware of.
It denotes a nature too versatile,
lacking in will power, lacking in gen
eral stability of character.
A hand that is extreme in the
Vienna Is Scene
Of Anti-Jewish
Demonstration
Disorders Begin at Congress
of Austrian Antt-Senietic
Association Pogroms
Are Advocated.
1 Vienna, March 14. (By The As
sociated Press.) Anti-Jewish dis
orders which broke out here last
evening threatened for a time to de
velop into a serious situation, but
the police, late in the evening, suc
ceeded in dispersing street crowds
and in preventing possible loss of
life. Shops owned by Jews were
damaged by stones thrown by riot
ous crowds, and in a few cases Jews
were beaten.
The disorder began at the congress
of the Austrian Anti-Semetic asso
ciation, which has been in session
here for several days. During the
sitting late yesterday afternoon, the
congress, which: is being attended,
by delegates from 62 chapters of the
organization in Austria and a few
representatives of Bavarian and
Hungarian anti-Jewish societies, was
addressed bv speakers who urged
radical measures. They advocated
pogroms, and the organization of
Christians in Austria.
During a street meeting at which
speakers declared that the Jews con
stituted a menace because of profli
gate living two Jewish students
were beaten.
At dusk this meeting broke up and
a great crowd swept through the
streets, singing German songs, ana
shouting "awayi with the Jews."
Now and then a tinkle of glass told
of a stone being thrown through a
window. The crowd moved steadily
toward a Jewish quarter of the city.

Motor Fever Hits

Auto Show Opens
Blare of Music Bends Air and
Myriads of Lights Flash on
at Auditorium as Crowds
Rush 'In.
Eager-eyed Omahans romped
through the main doors of the Audi
torium at 2 yesterday afternoon
when the porticos were swung open
to herald the Sixteenth Annual
Omaha automobile show.
Long rows of artistically ar
ranged, shiny-bodied cars, enough to
make any human hear the call of the
road, greeted those same eager-eyed
Omahans.
i And as the orchestra leader raised
his baton, a blare of music rent the
hall, simultaneously with the flash
ing on of myriads of electric lights.
"Best yet I" Greatest ever!" "Gee'
ain't them swell?"
Motor Fever Rages.
iiuch were some' of the gasped ex
clamations heard as the throng
surged in -an abbi'ft tempting sedans,
comfortable touring cars, luxuriant
limousines, lean, low, racy roadsters
and queer shaped sport models.
Here and there was a cute little
coupe; built, just for two, and the
girls eyed them longingly.
Motor fever fairly crackled and
sparked through the air, and genial
motor salesmen flitted hither and
yon through the mammoth display
of horseless carriages, answering
questions, pointing out the good
points of their own makes, and oblig
ing the vast crowd of spectators with
grace. .
