Municipal Reorganization.

The officers newly elected TO
inaugurate the commission plan OF
city government for Omaha seem to
be taking due notice that the purpose
OF the change is to secure complete
Reorganization and oyerhaulihg Of
the administrative machinery of the
city. The necessity of Departmental
ing under. seven general heads for
supervision each by one of the seven
eouncilmen respectively. makes also
imperative a reassignment OF the
work within the departments.
That this reorganization can be ac-
complished with one fell swoop is
not to be expected. nor Is 1t reason
able to suppose that the plan agreed
on will not call for changes later.
The urgent demand. however. is for
consolidation, abolition of sinecures,
and doing away with Implications.
Because an employs has been on the
payroll for time immemorial ID not
conclusive that he should be kept in
definitely, nor Is there any warrant
for the commissioners to create a
salaried Job for a particular person

IL the objects of efficiency and
economy are kept constantly in view,
the reorganization viii be regarded
for the present as experimental, and
the commissioners will not hesitate
to try something different which
holds out promise OF better results
for the same money or the same re-
suits for less money.

The Truth in Advertising.

The ad men in their annual con-
vention have raised high ideal for
themselves IN determining to confine
their advertising matter to the sim
pie truth. The cynical may say IL
cannot be done. 1t cannot be done
Immediately, and 1t would be poor
ideal If it could. But perhaps it can
be achieved in time. One of the
chief virtues Of an ideal 10 that 1t
requires constant effort, the exercise
of which is as beneficial as the final
act of achievement. The athlete is
developed, not by easy goals which
may be attained with ease, but by
having the mark SET SO high as to
call for continued training and prac-
tice. involving time, testing Of en-
durance and patience and grit.
1t IS a mans Job. then. the ad men
set themselves. They deserve to sue

and general respect for the potency
Of honest publicity.
Advertising has come to be one Of
the foremost special businesses. an
inexact science, engaging alert minds
and paying guaranteed returns. II
is the propelling power OF business
today and no progressive business
man would care to risk It's sacrifice.
II Is the commercial side OF the great
art OF publicity and yet, even its yo-
taries admit It must have also an
ethical aspect to raise itself to It's

And danced in gowns OF cotton;
Why were you left to linger here,
To pine alone in tissue?
Did she. perhaps, decide you queer
And never miss you?
Where is she now. that winsome girl
Who one glad springtime wore you!
Did she set handles heads awhirl
And hearts arapture DER you?
And was the face beneath the brim
Proud. pouting shy or simple!

Was there dimple?
Go back, oh. hat Of other DAYS,

Safe from our coldiy modern gaze,
Your spicy scents around you;

When midnight chimes emphatic,
Your sweet old ghost may come again
