Giving Fictitious Names
Handicap to Prosecutions

Assistant City Prosecutor Mcclure
has received another handicap in his
prosecution, under the provisions OF
the prohibition law. The giving OF
fictitious names when arrested makes
the law practically a joke.
Under the law the first conviction
carries with it a fine of $l00 and
costs, or thirty days in Jail. Each
subsequent conviction carries larger
sentence and on third conviction il
becomes felony. Under the system
of giving fictitious names the law
loses its force and the lighter sentence
will be imposed.
In a raid on the Anderson Com
mission company warehouse, 507
South Eleventh street, Thursday night,
eight arrests were made. On the wit
ress stand two defendants admitted
they were known by other names.
Another member of the party signed
A bond for one of the defendants
under another name than that which
he swore on the witness stand to be
his own. s
Mr.. Mcclure states that he will take
the matter up with the county attor-
ney and request that proceedings be
started for perjury.
$50 long as l hold this position I
am going to bend every effort to Sc
cure convictions. That is the only
way the law can be enforced" said
Mr.. Mcclure.
The case against Billy Wade, ct al,
was dismissed as to all Aof the defend
ants except Wade, WHO was given
until June E to appear with a person
whom he claims is known as Jimmie
Chowder. Chowder. Wade says, is
the man that owned the beer found
by the officers.

Patriotism Runs High
On the South Side

The crowd which attended the pa
triotic meeting on the South Side Sat
urday was so yarge that the plans were
changed at the last minute and the
demonstration staged in the street in
front of the city hall, speakers using
the steps for a platform. ,
Rev. Robert L. Wheeler, pastor OF
the Wheeler Memorial Presbyterian
church, ajmonished his hearers to
stand tight and not rock the boat"
He said his thirty years residence on
the South Side gave him confidence
in the people who came to this coun-
try from al! points of the world, caus-
ing the Magic City to be known as
the melting pot where true American
citizens were moulded.
Senator John M. Tanner talked and
quoted patriotic verse.
Bruce McCulloch, who presided,
made a short talk.
Armour's Glee club led the crowd
in singing "America." "Tipperary"
was sung in response to an encore.
Vac Buresh, editor OF Bohemian
newspaper, assured the audience that
his countrymen appreciated the free
dom of this country after 800 years
of bondage and were going to do
their bit" in the great struggle.

CROP CONDITIONS
GREATLY IMPROVED
Too Much Rain in Nebraska,
But Then the Grain Is Grow
ing by Leaps and
Bounds.

The Northwestern Railroad COM
pany's crop report for The week end
ing Friday night, and covering the
Nebraska lines is out. The data
comes from the station agents and in
dicates decided improvement in con-
ditons.
Company agents, after making per-
sonal investigation and talking with
farmers, learn that while a large
acreage of the winter wheat was
killed by the cold, through the west
erh and nothern portions of the state,
there will be more than half of nor
NAL crop.
In the southern and central sections,
considerable of the ground that had
been into winter wheat was plowed
and sowed to the spring cereal. This
gain has made good progress and
promises an abundant yield.
All through the state farmers are
complaining of too much rain and too
much cold weather. The heavy and
frequent rains have retarded spring
work and the cold has held the vege-
tation back. However, corn planting
has gone on rapidly whenever weather
would permit and as a result, this
line of farm work has been finished.
Fields that were planted early are
ready for the first cultivation and in
many instances, especially in the
southern counties, farmers have gone
through their fields the first time.
Large Acreage of Corn.
The acreage into corn is abnor.
mally large and the stand is said to
be the best in years, practically all
of the seed having germinated.
The acreage into oats is the largest
in years. There is the normal acre
age and to this has been added much
of that sown to wheat last fall, and
where the plant had since been killed
by the cold.
Alfalfa is coming on better than
was expected and it appears that not
so large an acreage as was reported,
was winter killed. In the southern
part Of the state, farmers will start
on the first cutting this week.
Everything points to the largest po-
tatoe crop ever raised in the state.
Owing to cold weather potatoes are
making slow progress, but the plants
are healthy and with warm weather,
are expected to grow rapidly.

Summer Course in the
Wartime Food Problems

While there seems to be tinge OF
novelty in the idea of having domestic
science taught in business school,
there are the best OF reasons why
such a school is the most logical
place for the education of house
keepers.
A woman-an American woman, at
least is the financial agent OF her
home. She spends 95 per cent OF the
family income; she buys 81 per cent
of the dry goods and IS per cent of
the groceries bought in the country.
She is the business manager OF the
home and as such she needs the
requisite training in order to know
what to buy and how TO make her
purchase yield the greatest amount OF
value; she must be trained to get a
dollars worth of value from every
dollar spent; indeed, in times such as
we are facing, she needs to know how
to get two dollars worth OF value
from her dollar.
Having IN mind the desirability Of
spreading as rapidly as possible the
gospel of scientific home management,
the Van SAINT School of Business has
arranged fer a six weeks course GOV.
ering wartime Food Problems"
1t will be given by Miss Irma Gross,
B. S, of the domestic science depart
ment of the Central High school, and
director of the household economics
department of The Omaha Bee.
The lectures will deal with the sub
jects of food conservation, with prac-
tical menus given from day to day il
lustrating well-balanced meals. The
term will be six weeks from June Is
to July 27 inclusive. A forty-hvc
minute lecture will be given each
morning, exclusive of Saturday. The
tuition fee is small and Miss Duffy
hopes that, inasmuch as this is the
only opportunity to secure such work
in Omaha this summer, when it is SO
much needed, that many women will
enroll for it and pass their acquired
knowledge on to others. Mothers,
daughters, young matrons, cooks and
those in charge of institutional man
agement-all these are confronted by
the wartime food problems which
Miss Gross can help to solve.
Other subjects given in the sum-
mer school, in addition to the regular
curriculum, are business adminlstra-
ton and advertising, both taught by
Prof. Dana F. Cole of the University
of Nebraska, and finance and invest
ments, and banking practice. both
