According 60 Horsepower ana
Make Theft Punished More
Severely.

An information bureau for automobile
tourists Is TO be placed somewhere In the
central part of Omaha on the LAncoln
highway by the Omaha Auto club, This
was decided at tho meeting of the club
yesterday. Welcome arches are to be
placed possibly at either side OF the city
spanning the Lincoln highway. A few
words of welcome from the Omaha Auto
club are TO ado rn the arches.
President Gould Dietz in his annual ad-
dress reviewed. some OF the things accom-
plshed by the club during the year.
Seven hundred guide boards have been
placed on the various roads leading into
Omaha by the club. Danger signs In
great numbers have been posted at the
sharp turns and cuts in the leading roads
coming into Omaha Tho club took an
active part in tho agitation which resulted
In the present traffic ordinance.
The club decided 20 ask the state legis-
lature this winter for road law similar
TO that I'm Iowa. whereby the automobiles
Of the state win be taxed according to
horse power the revenue to be used in
the Improvement OF the roads in different
sections OF the state, according to the
amounts received In such revenue from
hiNou Sst tionH OF inc State.
The cirb will also seek law in the
state THAI will give automobile thieves
n punishment at least as severe as that
OF horse thieves. They feel that tho pres
cnt law ON this point Is not sufficiently
severe. The club was Instrumental in
sending two men TO the penitentiary In
the last year for auto theft
Suggestions OF city ordinance for atfto
parking I'm the city were made, but no
definite action was taken, although tho
general membership of the club is in favor
OF some system that WIN get the autos off
the streets. This will likely come up and
be developed later.

a sign is seen only by
those who chance to

agent goes to men who

Where the agent sees only

The Sign

When you put a sign
ON your property it at
tracts more attention to
itself than to the house
you desire to sell.
If the property is a
residence and your OBJ
ject is to convince a
prospective buyer of
the select character of
the neighborhOod, a
sign certainly would not
be good taste.
On some kinds OF prop
erty. such as a vacant lot or
q tumble-down empty house
near an abandoned coal
mine, q sign would not de-
tract from the value OF the
land.
But IL would not bring q
buyer out to see 1t. Some
thing else is required to let
the buyer know where your
property Is located.

Three Ways to Sell a House
The Agent

One of the best ways
to sell a house
is through an agent.
An agent works hard
for his commission; he
must first find a buyer
who is interested in the
kind of property you
have; then he may
spend weeks trying to
convince the man that
he should buy.
often he does not sell the
house, 500 all his work is
done without pay. He has
spent his time, but you have
spent nothing.
You should always en-
ploy an agent, however. be-
cause his experience gives
him a degree of skill in clos
ing deals that is worth all
that he earns in the way of
commissions.
