The acrobatic act which being Civ

the Belmonts is quite extraordinary. so
much so, in fact, TO entltle it TO special
consideration. Mr. BELMONT, who is a
very powerful man, as we'll as highly
skilled, uses his strength TO good ad-
vantage, being able TO perfo m almost
any sort Of an unusual stunt while
balancing Mrs. Belmont, no matter
what his position happens to be- In
one pos tion, where he bends backwa- d
and walks on his hands and feet, he
appears to take no discomfort from the
fact that Mrs. Belmont is standing and
resting her entire weight on his stom-
ach. There Is also a bit Of comely in
the act. and, as both are Of a jovial
d.sposit on. that adds interest to their
performance.

PEOPLE OF CUBA
UNANIMOUS FOR
WAR ON HUNS
General MenoCaI Anxious to
Work in Harmony With
Country That Gave Gu

Washington, Sept. 22-Review Of
the action taken by Cuba since the
entrance of the United States into
the war to help the cause of the al
lied nations is made in a statement
from Gen. Mario G. Menocal, presi-
dent of Cuba.
General Menocal stated that
Cuba's declaration of war against
Germany was inspired by 'the
naughty and violent attitude in
which an imperialistic power, vain
of its might, attempted to impose
upon the world an intolerable domi-
nation" and "the noble ambition of
Cuban people to cooperate with all
their strength and with all their re-
sources in the sacred defense of the
liberty and sovereignty of all people
against the malignant and menacing
military power"
No opposition to the unanimous
declaration of war was voiced by
any faction of the Cuban people,
General Menocal stated.
The first action taken by General
Menocal following the declaration
Of war was the seizure of large
number of German steamships which
were held in Cuban ports. The Red
Cross was then placed on war
basis.

ing only married three of them. w.

Supreme Army Command
Still Dominates GERMANY

Amsterdam, Sept 22.-On the

that Chancellor Won Hertling does
not intend to resign and that Off
cial circles do not attach any i'm

though the minority of the center

deavoring to bring about greater
parliamentarization of the govern
ment the socialists alone favor alb
solute parliamentarization.
The centrist organ Germania, in

about a political crisis. 1t declares
that accord now happily has been
reached and the supreme army COM
mand is and will remain decisive.

HOME CARDS WILL
Be PUT IN every
NEBRASKA HOUSE
Hog and Cattle Census to be
Made of State by
School Children
October IS.

The new message of food con-
servation, rigid economy in the
use of fundamental foods without
strict restrictions will be carried
to every home in Nebraska through
the medium of home cards.
4, Gurdon w. Wattles, federal food
administrator for Nebraska, is hav-
ing 100000 OF these cards printed,
which will be distributed through
out the state next month.
"A card will be placed in every
home" says Mr.. Wattles, so that
Nebraskans may have constant re-
minders of the suggestions Of the
food administration. The Nebraska
official is working out a method of
distribution of these cards which
will insure an early completion of
the task.
"Nebraskans have always loyalty
responded to every call OF the gov
eminent and there is no doubt of
their response to the new method
of conservation. 1t is much simpler
than the methods of limiting the
consumer to specified amounts and
will accomplish the desired results
as effectively as former methods.
with the exception of sugar, no
limits are now placed on the foods
other than people are asked to limit
their purchase to a reasonable sup
ply OF sixty days. This works no
hardships on anyone. The sugar
restriction will likely be continued
for some time until shipping facili-
ties are much improved"
The Nebraska Food administra-
ton has another big task before it
in making a survey OF the hogs and
cattle on the farms of the state.
This survey will be made by school
children and it is Mr.. Wattles' am
bition that the survey will be COM
pleted in one day. The date set is
October Is.
81 hope that every farmer in Ne
braska will assist in making the
records complete. The school chill
dren will cali upon each farmer
for information which can easily be
given. 1t will include the number
of hogs and cattle on the farms and
the number of each that will be kill
ed for home consumption.
"By little preparation in ad-
vance of the date, October IS, this
information can be prepared and the
blanks filled out in a few minutes
when they are presented.
81 trust that every farmer will
constitute himself a committee of
one to make this survey successful"

Omaha "U" Opened Wednes'
day With Greater Number
of Courses Than Ever,
Due to War.

The University of Omaha open
ed Wednesday Sept. IS, with a
larger number of courses than ever
before. The war has made many
changes in the course of study.
French is in great demand while no
German has been asked for and no
provision is being made for it.
kindergarten and primary work
is very popular this year and many
have already registered for the
courses. Miss Emma Cheering, di-
rector of this work, is a graduate
OF Columbia university, and is con-
sidered one of the leaders in the
kindergarten movement.
Kindergartners Needed.
One of the prominent aims of the
Bureau of Education at Washing
ton is the establishment of kinder
gartens in every school in the coun-
try. To this end congress appro-
priated large sum of money, which
is being used in the preparation of
kindergarten teachers. There will
be great demand for teachers and
the University of Omaha will meet
this need by offering complete
course in kindergarten training. This
work will prepare for primary train
ing, also since the two lines of
teaching are so inseparable and sup
erintendents are asking for kinder
garten trained primary teachers.
Commercial courses have never
been taught at the university before
but because of the great demand
shorthand and typewriting will be
given, both to the regular students
in the day and also to night STU
dents. Telegraphy and radio work
also will be given to night students.
These courses will be open to both
men and women.
Extension Work. ..
The extension work for teachers
which was started last year has be-
come fixed part of the university,
Dean Stevenson is giving most Of
his time to this work. Over 90
principles and teachers have regis
tered for Saturday morning and al
ter school hours on week days.
The following courses will be given
by Dean Stevenson and Miss Che
ring: primary method, kindergar-
ten method, method in reading, edit
cational psychology, educational
measurements, scientific study of
education. Other courses will be
given by other members of the
faculty, literature, French, history,
biology and science.
The many applications for night
school work is healthy sign of
initiative on the part of the young
men and women of Omaha. The
following courses have been asked
for and will be given if sufficient
number register for them: begin
ming French, advanced French, psy-
chology, education, algebra, Latin,
Spanish, science, sociology econo-
mics, history, Red Cross courses,
story telling, folk dancing, public
