Where Accurate statistios Count.

Delinquents are being stirred up by the Com
mercial club publicity bureau for failing to send
in responses to requests for data from which
may be compiled the statistics OF the amount OF
business done in Omaha during the year The
strange thing is the men who realize fully the
comparative value Of figures exhibiting the out
put along the different lines and the increase or
decrease from year to year. often hesitate to
make their own returns, as II It were something
to be kept strictly to themselves, quite forgetful
that the reliability of the total depends on hav-
ing all the factors in IL. The truth is Omaha
has never had proker showing in the trade
statistics for the reason referred to, compelling
more or less incorrect guesses Only IL our
business men grasp the point. and make the
necessary returns, will our city occupy its right
full place In the tables by which it's Importance
as manufacturing and jobbing center is
measured.

The After. Dinner Speaker.

1t Is interesting to note the coincident
views OF Mr.. Dooley and Brander Mathews ON
the after-dnner speech. Says the latter:

sion has not turned his attention 70 the scientific

nnr Safety values


Americans are living at fast pace. most OF
the time keyed up to a high tension. They give
enormously Of their nerve power TO their bust
ness affairs. Some 60 to the breaking point
prematurely and pay the inevitable toll. But
constantly we are learning the lesson and de-
voting more attention 20 wholesome diversion
such as base ball foot ball Chose who do not
play them get the benefit as spectators and de-
votees) golf, tennis. sutoing and others. These
we may call the safety valves for the escape of
our excess steam. When the pressure of pent-up
anxiety and care reaches the point of exhaustion
there is the safety valve for the escape, and
every man owes II to himself, his family and his
business to make the most Of t.
Some of our decorous friends from other
lands have been abashed at the volume of what
strikes them as rowdyism displayed at base ball,
for example, but what IL Americans had no such
popular outlet for their native strenuosity, what
would become of them? It is not rowdyism,
but rather sportsmanship. the same sort that
sends fellow into the air at a horse race (of
which we ought to have more), or an auto race,
or any other exciting contest or competition.
They are safety valves that enable one to turn
his mind entirely away from the vexing cares
OF business for the time being and tit him ali
the better for graphing with them later.
