day. Among them were the public
schools in the city of charlottesville.
and In the county Of Chesterfield. Full

erably larger than was that OF last
year
There will be no shortage of teach

tanned as an auxiliary to the State
board in offices on the seventh floor

day, September IS.
There is no day IN Virginia. 40
there is in some of the other States

EXPRESSES GRATITUDE
ed Him In Saturdays Primary-Had
Served As Judge Twenty-one Years.

Winchester. Va, Sept. 5.-Judge
Thomas w. Harrison, of Winchester,
who was on Saturday nominated by
the Democrats of the Seventh Con-
gressional District as their candidate
for Congress, dictated the following
expression of gratitude:
To the People of the Seventh judicial
Circuit of Virginia:
Today l find it difficult to express
my gratitude to you for the magnifi-
cent tribute paid to me in the recent
primary. For twenty-one years and
more / have served you as Judge of
this circuit. In ALL that time / have
been treated by both the people and
the bar with the utmost consideration
and kindness. / can recall no single
instance in which any unkindness in
thought or deed has been attributed
against me by anyone of the many
who have had occasion to appear be-
fore me in any OF the courts over
which l have presided. My failures
have been overlooked and my errors
condoned by a uniform kindness from
the people.
The splendid turnout of the peo-
pie at the polls on last Saturday and
the overwhelming vote cast in my
favor Is such a gratifying expression
OF confidence in me, as overshadows
the results in the entire district /
can but say to you from the bottom
of my heart that 1 thank you.
If elected to represent the Seventh
Congressional District. I trust that
my course will Justify the continued
confidence of the people of my ju-
dicial circuit and the district general
/ y. Certainly no effort on my part
will be omitted to justify this conf
dence.
Respectfully,

SELL ALL FLOWERS

Shortage of Blooms Keeps
Down Receipts, Which Reach
500 by Noon Hour.
ARMENIANs TO BE HELPED

Shortage of flowers was the only
thing which marred the success OF
flower day for the Syrian relief fund.
Only 5000 carnations could be secured
and the high cost OF roses detracted
great deal from the sum total col
lected. About 500 had been collected
up to noon.
High school and university goods,
together with young Syrian girls, sold
the flowers under chaperonage OF
Omaha Woman's club members
Headquarters were established at 1907
Farnam street with Mrs. c. w. Hayes,

Tracy and Miss Katherine Morley lin
charge. Father Abboud, Richard Aim
and A. Nussrallah of the local Syrian
colony assisted. Boy scouts acted as
messengers.
Girls selling flowers on the shady
side OF the street suffered a little dis
comfort from the cold.
Father Abboud, my hands are so
cold" cried little Syrian miss, wiring
ing half-benumbed fingers.
Flowers were sold for small sums
mostly, 10 and Is cents, with few
dollar donations.
Orders were taken for bouquets and
to decorate church pulpits for Sunday.
Efforts to raise funds for the Ar
menian war relief fund were also put
forth yesterday and will be continued

Subway Proposer
Is Dauntless Man

"If quicksand bothers, we'll freeze
it and bore through it.
This is the answer A. J. P. Bertschy
makes when friends confront him
with questions as to how he would
overcome certain obstacles in con-
structing a tunnel or subway under
the Missouri river between Omaha
and Council Bluffs.
Mr.. Bertschy recently startled
Commercial club circles by announc-
ing that a subway or tunnel is much
more feasible than free bridge. He
is now drawing sketches and making
estimates as to cost.
When told that the quicksand in
the river bed would, form a great OBJ
stacle he replied that an ammonia
pipe line would be laid to the spot,
and that the Baker Ice Machine COM
pany of Omaha could install the nee
essary apparatus to freeze the sand
in brief period, after which the work
of boring and tunnel construction
could go on uninterrupted. Freezing
of quicksand in order to facilitate tun-
mel work is trick we'll known to en-
gineers in big construction jobs of
this kind.
