Smith Comes to
Help of Schmidt
Curtailing Name Troubles Mrs.
Schmidt and District Clerk is
Asked to Mend Matters

Robert Smith, clerk of district court, Is
busy connecting letter which will, it is
hoped, allay a mothers fears.
Some years ago Mr.. and Mrs Robert
Schmidt came to South Omaha from Ger
many where the family name had been
Linenschmidt Mr. Linenschmldt went to
work for packing company and the fore
man, not catching the name properly and
supposing that the first two sylables con-
stituted the mans middle name put down
the new employee on the rolls as Robert L.
Schmidt.
And Schmidt it has been ever since. The
bearer of the curtailed cognomen caught
something of the American spirit of hurry
and impotence, so when he took out first
naturalization papers he put himself down
as Robert Schmidt. Likewise with the sec
ond papers, so that so far as any one may
say now, Schmidt is his legal name
But Mrs. Schmidt (or LinenschmidO does
not exactly understand how this may be
and she is worried because she thinks some
doubt is cast by this change of nomencla-
ture on the legitimacy OF the family's chill
dren. These children are, OF course, born
in as lawful wedlock as anyone's else and
their legitimacy is not open to the slightest
question.
But Mrs. Schmidt has been FESTIVE under
even her attorneys assurances to this eff
feet, and so she has written to district
court urging that a judicial order be en-
tered changing her husbands name from
Linenschmidt to Schmidt. All the Judges
are OF the opinion that the mans name
now is Schmidt and they therefore decline
to act So Mr.. Smith has been called upon
to write-on official paper-a more or less
formal pronouncement that her husbands
name is Schmidt and not I,inenschmidt
II could have faxed up an official paper
with red seal and easily satisfied the
woman" said John G, Kuehn. her attorney
land 1t would have amounted to as much
as Smiths letter, but perhaps this is the
best way"
