This tract of ground now being plat
ted into high class residence district,
lies north of Miller Park and extends
from Twenty fourth street to Thirtieth
street.
It has frontage directly on the park
of 2,574 feet. It requires comparatively
little grading and all streets and avenues
are now being brought to the estab-
lished grade.
Nearly twelve miles of cement
walks and six miles of water mains and
five miles of sewer mains will be re-
quired to serve the 800 LOTS and these
improvements will be put in for each
lot, by us, and paid for.
The tract is served by splendid car
service, and has ideal surroundings
and will be protected by Building Re-
strictions.
We make the statement, without
fear of contradiction, that we will sell
these lots for much lower prices than
any other high class residence lots in
or near Omaha.

At the gymnasium of the Y.

large number of ladies and gen.
tlemen met in response to a call
for a citizens meeting, with the
view of getting everybody to-
gether for the purpose of giving
the old town a good clean up.
The meeting was called to or
der by Mr.. j. H. Ledyard, who
explained the purposes of the
meeting to be to place the town,
sts homes. and public places and
business places in such a sanitary
condition as to meet with the
commentator of the committee
appointed by the state board OF
health to inspect the towns OF

various clubs, who undertook the
work. Mrs. j. @. Robins was
made chairman of the club meet
ings. Informal talks were made
by both the ladies and the gen

desire was manifested by all
hands to get the town in shape
to start the spring in strictly a
sanitary condition.
Present conditions were re-
ferred to as entirely unsatisfac-
tory and not being what they
should be for a model. clean city.
The question of how to proceed
was discussed and finally it was
decided to appoint committees
whose duty it would be to direct
and undertake the proposed
cleanup campaign.
Mayor Robins was present and
he went into detail in enumerat-
ing some of the difficulties met
by the city officials in their eff
forts to enforce sanitary ordl-
nances and keep the city clean.
He expressed a Willingness to

w. A. Jamison

Died, at his home in Planters
vile, Tuesday morning, March
2, after short illness, William
A. Jamison. aged 79 years. Mr..
Jamison was taken i'll the pa t
week with pnemonia of a viru-
lent type and all treatment of
physicians and the tender nurs-
ing of his family failed to arrest
the disease and death soon fol-
lowed.
William A. Jamison spent his
boyhood days in Pontotoc county
and there while but a youth he
enlisted at the outbreak of the
Civil War in the First Mississippi
Cavalry Regiment, raised by Col.
| R. A. Pinson, of Pontotoc. He
served throughout the war. Fol
lowing the Civil war for awhile
he taught school and later en-
gagged in the mercantile business
| in Pontotoc county. Closing out
his business there about 30 years
ago he moved to Verona where
he engaged in the mercantile
business with w. S. Johnson for
a number of years. Later he
moved TO Plantersville where he
had a farm and continued in the
mercantile business there until
his death.
The funeral was conducted
from the Baptist church in
PIantersville, of which Mr.. Jami-
son was a member, by his pastor,
| Rev. j A. Landers. of Saltlllo.
Mr.. Landers read beautiful words
of comfort and promises of di
wire life for the redeemed and
assurances of the resurrection
and the reunion in the hereafter.
He spoke in the hie hest praise
of the deceased as member fof
| his church and his faithfulness
at all times in his service and
his devoutness as a christian.

followed the remains to the
church as honorary pail hearers.

tain r. S. Thomas who spoke in
the highest terms of Mr.. Jami-
sons services as soldier One
or two who were in his regi
ment, one being the member Of
his immediate Company, stated
that in his services as a soldier.
Mr.. Jamison never missed a roll
call and was fearless in the dis
charge of every duty encumhent
upon him. Mr.. Johnson, who
had been his partner in business,
stated that he had never known
a man who had higher concep-
tions of honor than his departed
friend, and that he was true to
every obligation resting upon
him. Others spoke of him as a
neighbor and friend, one who
was at all times anxious to serve
them in every capacity that
would insure to their well being
and happiness. Captain Thomas.

for nearly twenty years, testified

Finding Work for the Unemployed.

Cnquestionably much good can be ac-
complished by the government employ
ment bureau" which has just been started
as one of the activities of the Department
Of Labor. 1t is not designed to guarantee
work for any man. but the purpose is to
bring the man and the job closer together.
without cost to the man. This is precisely
the purpose OF the British labor bureau
system, which serves as a clearing house
of information SO that when worknen of
a particular grade are needed in any part
Of the kingdom man can be supplied
from the nearest point. perhaps the
most congested point. The English sys-
TEN, however. goes further and makes 1t
possible for the workman to reach his
place of employment by advancing him
railroad fare in case of a journey for
which he has no funds, this advance being
repaid out of his earnings. Practically no
losses have been suffered by the govern
ment as a result Of this system.
unemployment is to a certain extent
the result of faulty distribution, and while
it is. of course. not to be expected that
work will be found for all idle men as a
result of the present federal endeavor, yet
much relief can undoubtedly be gained

from the exchange Of information between

dunn of the government bureau
Just at present q change is occurring in
American industries as a result of the
war in Europe. Manufacturers are find-
ing new uses for machinery hitherto idle.
in making products heretofore imported
from the now war-stricken countries.
Necessity arising from the abnormal con-
ditions is breeding invention, and in many
quarters skilled men are needed to run
machines or to manipulate fabrics In
trades hitherto dormant or perhaps un-
known in this country.
In the Se circumstances a material shift
of workers is bound to occur, and in this
transfer the government bureau can be
highly effective. Not only will the en-
ployment of the men whom the United
States aids to secure work relieve them.
but their employment in turn will stimu-
late business. Prosperity grows upon it
self. Employment begets employment. as

The Clean-City Work.

Judging from present indications the
1915 c1ean-city campaign will be pro-
ductive of excellent results. The citi-
zens' committee which for some years
has been in charge of this movement
has secured the cooperation OF busi-
ness men to such an extent 1t is as
sured that during the period assigned
for a general city securing, perhaps
a fortnight instead of the usual week.
Washington will be swept. cleaned and
garnished probably never before. One
feature of this years endeavor is
especially notable It is proposed not
only to clean out accumulations of rub
but to freshen up the city generally by
liberal applications of paint.
1t is encouraging to see that the
clean-city movement has gone beyond
the mere stage Of sanitary precau-
tion and reached the point OF aiming
at exterior attractiveness. Washing
ton could be improved in appearance
to a very great extent by the annual
use of paint. Many Of the houses are
built of brick and require no treat
ment of the walls for long periods. but
even a brick house can be made neater
in appearance by an occasional paint
ing. while the frame houses should be
painted every few seasons.
This annual habit Of cleaning up
thoroughly has gripped Washington
and has undoubtedly made it a health
Ter, better city. The sanitary reasons
for cleanliness are well understood by
the people and all that is needed is
organization to insure a concentration
of public thought on this subject once

A Model Fire Alarm.

In New York the other night a crowd of
about 1000 people filled one of the
large theatrical auditoriums and dur
ing the middle of the performance IRE
was discovered in the engine room
under the stage. Word was immedi-
ately passed to the ushers to prepare
to expedite the exit of the audience.
and when all was ready the manager
went on the stage, interrupting the
act then proceeding. and made the fol-
lowing speech:
we have just discovered a little trou-
Bile in the power house. 1t is very slight
and will perhaps be fixed in "a few min
utes. but We will have to turn the lights

Last year showed the Buckeye republic

in that form they used to be irresistible.
Some pretty speculation is circulating
about the next republican national ticket
AS this runs. if the cast does not capture
the first place, the prize will go to the
middle territory, or to the near west. The
middle territory comprises Ohio. Illinois
and Indiana, and by the near west in
this connection is meant Idaho and Mis-

happy occasion in question were enhanced
in value by the fact that among those
offering them was a distinguished demo-

the men mentioned along with Mr.. Bur-
