Omaha people have the most substantial and
the most beautiful homes of those found in any
other city of this size. "A characteristic of the
Omahan is to demand and get the very best
obtainable.
Omaha people have helped to increase
the value of real estate by investing in it
heavily and then bringing it up to the very
highest possible point of improvement
Omaha real estate concerns have more than
kept pace with the ideas and requirements of
buyers in this direction and we are all justly
proud OF the quality of comfort, appearance and
substance of Omaha homes
This is the richest zone to which the
world can point at this time. The wheat
corn and oats crops alone of the west are
worth today $75OOOO.OOO more than they
were salable at before the outbreak ofwar.

Preceding the election the athletic board
will grant letters to the members of the
squad. who have fulfilled the Missouri

on captain will be taken. The Missouri
Valley conference requires participation
In at least two big games, but under
this ruling the largest number of letters
ever granted will be given.

These men will be awarded letters:
Captain Vic Halligan. Halfbacks Ruther-

Potter. Fuilback Doyle. In addition to
the regulars F>uIlback DelaTpetre, Quar-

While Stiehm had an imposing array OF
talent at the beginning Of the foot ball
season last fall. he has still better list
to draw from next year. He will have
practically an entirely veteran eleven
Only the end, quarterback and tackle
positions are open and stiehm still has
some letter men to draft for these places.
