There were five nrrsons in the luxurious louring car besides the diauflfeur, who. indeed, might have been the old cigar store wooden In dian for any interest he appeared to t?.!.e in the noise of our screaming, whiiii evidently was the reason for the sudden turning of the car into the winding wood road where Lillian, Marion and I had stopped for lunch. But the excitement of the rest, three women, elderly, middle-aged and young, and two men, a pursy, pompous individual in the early 50s,, und a youth of 20, was plainly vis ible. "What is it? What has hap pened?" the two older women ques tioned wildly, while the two men jumped from the car doors without waiting for the chauffeur to open them. "What Is the Trouble Here? "The bandits must have gotten away," the youngest of the feminine trio declared excitedly. She was but a few yean older than Marion, and, if not movie-nourished, had been fed on surreptitious melodramas at her school, or my insight into the mental makeup of flappers, acquired by years of teaching, was at fault. "Those awful screams 1" the elder ly, woman moaned, but I saw that she was distinctly enjoying the ex citement. "What is the trouble here?" the evident head of the family began in a pompous voice. The younger man, a good-looking chap, in about his junior year in college, I judged, pulled at his father s sleeve and looked at . us with comprehending amusement in his eyes. Of them all, he was the only one who had the slightest inkling of the truth. 1 felt a sudden desire to run, which I knew was shared by Marion, who had flown to her mother when the motor car had stopped, and was clinging to her hand. Lillian stooped to the child, an 1 I heard her mur ,... "Hn Aitnti Matlee. sweet heart." When Marion had obeyed, she advanced a step toward the pursy man, her head erect, her whole bearing so palpably that of a woman of the world equipped to meet any situation, that I felt my old admiring pride of her thrilling me. "There is no trouble here, sue said decidedly, then turned as non chalantly toward us as it there wen! no one else in sight. Embarrassing Moments. "Marion, you may pick up some sticks lor the fire now, but don't go out of sight," she said. The man glared at her.' "This won't do, my good woman, be blustered. "We heard the most awful shrieks a minute ago, pro ceeding frorrf here, and- we have come to investigate. Either you have some injured person hidden away here, or" "Perhaps thev were beating the child," the mid'dle-aged woman in terposed. I looked at her for the first time attentively. She was ttpt nmt imrjossible type, a rattle brained woman, with r.o hardships pr responsibilities to mitigate her silliness. Lillian flashed an appraising glance at her and Rave an irrepress -ble little laugh. I saw the younger man's lips twitch, and .knew that n was enjoying the situation in spite of his embarrassment at the idiocy of his family. . ' "Look here," the elder man said with what was evidently his beat ter rorizing ' manner. "This wont do. I demand to be told at once what is the matter here." "You have police powers, I pr; sumc." Lilian answered airily. It tiot, vou, of course, own this piece ot t t. "How insolent!" the rattle-bram exclaimed languidly, putting up a lorgnette. .... , I saw the lines around Lillian s mouth tighten, and a tiny spark come into her eyes, sure signals ot the lightning of her temper. She swept the women in the carriage with a contemptuous glance, then her steely eyes clashed with the angry ones of the pompous owner of the luxurious ear. .., "I am getting a trifle tired of this, she said. "If you desire to occupy this particular spot of land, say .so, and we will move farther on. We could hardly contest the place, witn vou ,as your party is much stronger physically than ours. But if you do not desire to stay here I would sug gest that yoti are wasting your time, and. whatls much more important UShe turned ber back deliberately upon the sputtering wrath of the Lhsabled soldiers -.Agricultural Class Lincoln,' Neb., April 24. A special summer school for disabled soldiers at the university school of agriculture will continue until September 10. Thirty-one men have registered for the five months' training.

"I think this would be a good place for the fire," she said. I was futively watching the car owner, and I thought for a moment he was. going to have some sort of fit. He was palpably the type of man who brooks no opposition. For an instant he actually looked as if he meant to stride over and try physical force upon Lillian's obsti nacy. I think, however, that even his brain, so accustomed to command that most of its other powers , had atrophied, if he had ever possessed them, was beginning to perceive a glimmer of the truth. At any rate, he contented himself with a futile parting snarl: "You've not heard the last of this " he said nastily as he climbed into his car. (Continued Tomorrow.) Vote for Dan Butler For Q c o J.

Getting, a CIosc-up on Omaha By JACK LEE. To know the worth of a man, one should have more than a casual acquaintance with him. One should know him personally, know something of his likes and dislikes, and always something of his vocation and man ner of life. Too often judgment is based on casual acquaintance, and opinions are passed that are unfair. To understand his fellowman better should be the aim of each business man. 'Know thyself" is a platitude handed down from the ancients, and for a long time it has proven excellent advice. "Know thyself, but also get acquainted with thy neighbor," is the modernized version of the old saw. One which can be followed by business men of modern times and especially times like these, when men must stand shoulder to shoulder until economic condi tions clear. There was once a time when a business man could shut himself away in an office, exclude his neighbor and lose himself in the conduct of his own business. To day it is the man who knows what his neighbor is doing, who is known as the live wire. A man who loses himself in his own business soon loses his business. The same holds between industrial and commercial institutions. How little many bf our business men know of the intimate workings of the business in which their friends are engaged. They know their friends are con nected with such and such a firm, but his position there or what he does, is not quite clear. If asked to explain something of the business they are totally at sea. The invitation of a big utility corporation which entertained the members of various business men's clubs during the noon hours of the past week was accepted gladly by the members of these clubs. In one of the clubs more members were brought out on that day than on any previous meeting day for weeks. After a tour of the company's huge plant, where they saw all the inside workings and had them explained by guides who were empolyes of the company, the mem bers of the various clubs sat down to a luncheon pro vided for them and talked over what they had seen. Of course, on their tour through the plant most of the visitors asked questions which perhaps sounded ri diculous to the guides. Merchants .who had steel trap minds for their own affairs had little more than a school boy's conception of something outside his own line. Nevertheless all these questions were intelligently answered and it is needless to say the men knew more about that particular industry when they left than be fore they came. Recently a prominent South Side live stock man was addressing a business men's club at one of its weekly luncheons. , "How many of you have ever visited the stock yards and have inspected them and the packing plants?" he asked. Among the members were many who had been in business in Omaha for years. In answer to the question less than half a dozen raised their hands. Yet here is perhaps the industry most vital to Omaha's pros perity being neglected by business men who should know at least the big things of their own city. On May 6, 1,000 students from the state university will be brought to Omaha for a day's visit. They will be shown over the city and taken on tours through the industrial, commercial and manufacturing concerns which make up Omaha's business world. Are they being brought here because Omaha wants to show them what a good fellow she is? No, Omaha business men want to teach young Nebraska that she has concerns worth visiting. That there are business and industrial advantages in this city just as tempting as in any other. When the students return to Lincoln they will have more than their former vague idea of what comprises Omaha. Their former picture of Omaha as a place with lighted streets, cafes, theaters and chop suey joints will be displaced by the magnitude of the things they see while touring the vital places of the city, Ames students have been brought to the stock yards to visit and study methods there. What they learned in such a practical visit aided them in their theoretical study. Similar tours through large manufacturing, indus trial and commercial plants as well as municipal utilities would do a world of good. Starting with the members of the various business men's organizations, they could gradually expand until they took in members of civic organizations, students of colleges and high schools and pupils from the grade schools. In a short time Omahans would have a practical conception of what their city really amounts to. It is imperative that business men exchange ideas nowadays. That is the object of business men's organi zations. Yet ideas and discussions should not always be handed over the dining table. In all phases of business first-hand knowledge is the knowledge which brings returns. One visit to some large concern is bound to open the eyes of the visitor and furnish him with valuable information. A second visit and he could discuss quite intelligently what he had seen. Such knowledge would prove valuable to Omaha business men who travel considerably. How embarrass ing to listen to a stranger tell you something you didn't know nbout your own city. How much more creditable to tell him something he didn't know and tell it intelligently. 1 1 t 'i A ' Two Held for Forgery Sacramento. Cel., Aprit 22. A man.
