SAYS CHURCH POWER WAVES
Judge Baird Gives LaymRn's View of
the Pulpit-COmm on Edu-
tiOnal Influence.

1.-THE church needs to get back to its
original inspiration" said Judge William
Baird in an address before the Ministerial
union of Omaha on "A LaYman's View of
the Pulpit" Monday night
The church needs to get its power from
the graces above and not from beneath
from God and not from man.
The argument that the world is getting
better and that the church is regenerating
and reforming does not commend itself to
the observation or experience of hearers
who are familiar with the spirit that rules
in the political, social and business rela-
lions Of life, and can hardly satisfy
thoughtful members of the church in face
of the prevailing influence"
Judge Baird gave something of a fling at
the schools of the country when he said:
while there are, no doubt many causes
which keep men from uniting with the
church, l believe one of the most efficient
causes is attributable to the rationalistic
teachings of the educational institutions,
which have affected both pew and pulpit
to such an extent that the spiritual power
of the church has been to a large extent
neutralized."

Colonel Tanning
Wants to Know
Whom to Reward
Asks Court to Decide Which of Three
Men is Entitled to Pay
for Work.

Colonel Charles r. Tanning Is perplexed
over payment of 1855 as between Roy
S. Scott. Harry w. Corduroy and Daniel
Horrigan. and Mr.. Tanning las petitioned
the district court To tell him 10 which
claimant or claimants the money SHAH go.
AS a further sign Of good faith Tanning
had put up the money in court.
Tanning says he hired Horrigan and
Corduroy in August and September to OBJ
tain signatures to petitions on paving ma
terial for the improvement of Howard
street from Ninth to Sixteenth, Thirteenth,
from Howard to Harvey; Thirteenth, from
Douglas to Davenport.
This work by Horrigan and Corduroy
was to be worth twice S343S5, and half the
mercy was paid over For the other half
Horrlgan and Scott have a little division
of opinion as to respective interests and
Corduroy has complicated matters by
claiming it all. The matter has already
got into justice court, so Mr.. Tanning in
despair has put it up to district court.

Prior to the meeting of the committee
the opening session of the society began
a. 10 o'clock. The invocation was by Dr.
Nathaniel MCiGffin of the Lowe Avenue
Presbyterian church. DR. A. 0. Hunt of
Omaha gave the address of welcome and
paid tribute to the members of the pro-
fession in this city. He said that Omaha
was wideawake and that he believed the
dentists would enjoy themselves while
here.
He said that inasmuch as he was not a
city official he could not hand over the
keys to Omaha, but Sat he would give
them some advice in order that they might
keep out of trouble while mere. In a hui
morous way he pointed out the various
points of interest in Omaha and told them
the hours of closing of the various places
they might wish to visit. He said that the
theatcrs id not close at O'clock lie

UNIVERSITY BUILDS ITS
NEW RETAINING WALL
Prepares to Erect Stadium ON the
Campus for Athletic Sports
mt Creighton.

Work has begun on the construction of
the retaining wall that Creighton uni
versity is to build along the front of it's
property on the newly opened section of
North Twenty-fourth street. This wall will
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000 and will
run from California to Burt streets
The half dozen residences which have
stood for years on the side hill north of
the university facing Burt have been moved
to foundations erected on the university
property at Cass street and the boulevard.
This clearing of the Burt street front of
the university has been made preparatory
to sodding and terracing the high ground
just north of the observatory. When this
has been done and the new stadium is
erected on the campus the university
grounds will be as attractive as any in
the western country.

SOUTH OMAHA BALLOT COUNT
Three Contests in Joint Progress in
County Court Today.
LITTLE CHANGE UP TO DATE
Several Minor Alterations Made from
the Original Count of the ReEu-
lar Clerks and Judges Of
Election,

Three election contests. fruit Of the re-
cent South Omaha balloting, are in joint
progress IN county court which has taken
on for the time the semblance of pre-
cinct voting place after the election, the
likeness being modified by the absence Of
the customary innumerable bad cigars.
one republican and two democrats are con-
testing the official returns, which gave a
place on the Board of Fire and Police Com
missioners to John J. Ryan, republican,
over T. j, Kelly, the vote standing ISL to
1,765.
The other contests are over seats in the
city council, the incumbents being p. p.
Peterson from the Seventh ward and Au-
gust Miller from the Fifth, the contestants,
who are democrats, being John Elliot and
J. j. Larkin. Larkin is arrayed against
Miller
During the morning session of court the
votes were counted from the First pre-
cinct of the First ward and but slight
changes were shown. Kelly had III votes
here and the recount gave him the same.
Ryan, who had 14J, gained two.
Elliot, with 100 on the official returns,
lost three on the recount In this precinct,
and Miller, who had 1870, dropped to 1874.
Larkin, on the first report, had las in this
precinct. The recount gives him one more.
Peterson drops from 1879 to 1877.
Changes of only one or two we're detected
at the afternoon session and prospects Of
unseating any Of the contestees do not yet
appear good.
1t is not likely that the vote counting will
be ended before late Wednesday afternoon.
While number of attorneys are engaged,
1t is not probable that there will be much
time given to arguments unless more dis
putable ballots show up. So far there has
been little division upon how the ballots
should be counted.

Increases by few large business

775 last year, and the Omaha Rubber COM
pany returns 1921, $50 compared to $4,000 in
1909. OF this $4,000, the $4,000 was boosted
by the Board of Equalization. This year the
increase in quite voluntary. The Bennett
company goes last year 500 better, the fig
ures being 500, 800 and s2O4, 700. David Cole
makes the same returns as in 1909. $14,15O

low for slight shrinking also. French
women like their blouses snug enough
to outline all the curves of the figure,
and most of the French blouses-made
for the small-boned French women,
are painfully skinny across the broad
er shoulders of American women. In
fact, some of the French makers, real
izing this, supply special blouses for
their American patrons, following IA
risian style inspirations, but making
all proportions more generous. The
very slender woman always looks best
in q shirtwaist for the reason that 1t
falls loosely and gracefully from the
shoulders as an informal garment or
this sort should. The plump woman
and especially the woman with large
bust should see that her shirtwaists
are sufficiently full to hang with this
easy grace, and such women Will WISE

wholly by neck sizes, are very seldom
full enough across the bust or shoulder
