Dad Weaver has been a pretty ex-

we have rather liked IT," said c. c. Belden
at a banquet 10 leading Omaha business
men gave to J. D. Weaver, advertising

come back any time he chooses" said
Victor White.
Colonel william Kennedy was toast

"A feast is usually looked upon as an &C.
CASTOR for rejoicing" said c. c. R~osewater,
general manager OF The Bee, but this is
more like a funeral in that we all hope the
man has gone to a better place. Seventeen
years with one institution is a good COM
pliment for any man to have paid him
We have all come to recognize the won
