MY friend, Rose W, who makes
4'4 her home at THE HOTEL
FLATIRON, has been so enthusiastic
in her praise of it that it occurred to
me it was the very place to recon-
mend to my out-of-town readers who
might be coming to Omaha for "The
Speedway" on the Fourth; so yester-
day ] went over to see for myself.
Truly, first impressions are most en-
during, for as | entered the hotel
one glance around its attractive
lounging room put me at my ease.
Mr.. Greer, the genial host, guided me
from room to room and | could not
refrain from exclaiming, What
home-like place-one would feel so
secure here. Your equipment service
and furnishings are unexcclled in
Omaha"
