The Call OF the Mountains.
Americans have been so accusomed
to flock to foreign lands in search of
natural wonders, that they have miss
ed the greatest of all within the con-
fines of their own cOuntry-Glacier

elers abroad at home" on journey
which might be aptly termed, "A Re
discovery of America in 1916" Several
months ago his camera men plunged
into this Land of the Beyond-the do
main of Indian legend and romance.
Leaving behind civilization and all its
ways they camped on long forgotten
trails that existed over 1000 years ago.
For months they needed the call of the
mountains and that alone Their
Photographic triumphs far surpassed
their most sanguine expectations for

Wedding Knots Tied
by Justice of Peace
Caldwell Are Legal

A contemporary recently published a
story intimating that couples by Justice
of the Peace Caldwell of the South
Side, whose title seems to be in dis
pute, are not legally married AS a
result inquiries have been so frequent
that county officials have asked all re-
liable papers to publish a correct state
ment.
The fact is that It matters not to the
principals in a Nebraska marriage con-
tract whether the officiating person is
legally commissioned to act. The Ne
braska statue has it that any marriage
which is consummated with full belief
on the part of either party, Is legally
binding, no matter whether the justice
or minister is qualified to act.

MANY NEW COMERS
FOR MARKET WEEK
Hundreds of Retailers Make First
Buying Trip to Omaha for Mer-
chants Market Week.
ATTENDANCE RECORDS BROKEN

Agreeable surprises met hundreds
Of retail merchants from all over
dozen states who are in Omaha this
week attending one of Omaha Mer-
chants Market weeks for the first
time in their lives.
There are hundreds of them who
have attended every Merchants Mar
ket week since this institution was
founded a little over two years ago,
but there are other hundreds who
are here for the first time.
The surprise they met lies in the
fact that they have just learned how
complete are the facilities Of the
Omaha market for supplying their
every want. Many of them have in
the past been going right on to Chi
cago once or twice year to buy
their stocks of goods because they
did moi think Omaha's market large
enough or varied enough to supply
their wants. They are finding this
week that they can buy everything
they want in Omaha, of any grade Of
goods, much of it manufactured
right in Omaha.
Dozen states Represented.
No less than a dozen states are repre-
sented in the crowds Of merchants that
are hcre buying now. An exceptionally
large percentage Of the visiting retailers
this year are from Iowa, which is looked
upon by the local market as increasing
evidence of the favor i'm which the Omaha
market is held by those who are so
situated that they have to some extent
in the past been running into Chicago
more readily than into omaha.
1T is easy to see by the crowds this
morning that we arc going to surpass
the crowds of last spring" sair Chairman
Joe Kelly OF the local committee on ar
rangements. THE crowds that came this
morning sweled the general attendance
so that We can easily see now that we
are ahead of last year The visitors are
very busy looking over the stocks of
goods and are buying generous orders"
For tho banquet and dance at the Fon-
tenclle this evening $50 places have
been reserved. This means strictly for
visitors, because the committee has re-
peatedly announced that so great are the
crowds of visitors that tickets will not
be issued to local merchants at all, in
order that all the visitors may be prop
erly accommodated.
