What a walloping the kaiser would
receive if the Omaha school children
could get at him to wreak their ven
geance. Lacking the opportunity, they
are working hard for the Red Cross
and other war activities. During the
recent Red Cross drive the school
children were asked to write their
ideas Of appropriate slogans. Here are
some of them:
Washington was the father OF his
country; don't let the kaiser be its
stepfathet; help the Red Cross.
The way for our Boys to reach Berlin
Is to give our dollars and push them
in.
There, little Belgium, don't you cry!
The Red Cross will help you bye-and-
bye.
Hearts steeled; eyes peeled; lips
sealed; never yields the Red Cross.
One penny, two penny v
Red Cross funds.
Do not waste while others want.
"Over there" and "over here"
The Red Cross nurses carry cheer.
Kaiser William went to war,
All the world to win,
But all the world that he can rule
Is little old Berlin. -.
The mother gave her son; the son
gave his life; what are you givinge T..
Never a penny will we spend,
But every one to the Red Cross send.
What shall it prohta man if he gain
the whole world and then have to
hand it over to the Huns?
Stop, Look and Loosen.
R means Relief; c means Care;
You can do these through the Red
Cross.
There are hundreds more that are
ust as good.
War Work Helps Schools.
Best of all, the children mean every

Truck Drivers to Mee4 to
Consider Central Office

Manager Gillian of the Chamber ol
Commerce industrial bureau has
called meeting for next Tuesday OF
truck drivers in an effort 70 establish
central Office to facilitate the haul
ing of freight between Omaha and
surrounding towns. There are already
three motor trucks in regular service
between Fremont and Omaha.
The idea," he said, is to have a
central Office so that when a truck
comes in from a town its driver can
call and see whether there is some
freight to haul on his return trip, thus
saving the trucks from going empty
in one direction"

world OF what they say and they are
proving it by doing the work that lies
nearest them.
Miss Belle Ryan has been collect
ing data on war workfrom the teach
ers for the use Of the federal educa-
tional department, and the teachers
all declare that the war and Red Cross
work have had a wonderful effect on
the schools. Instead of being dry,
dead book learning, lessons mean
something real to the children now.
When child is told to bound Bel
gium, he doesn't need to think of blue
and green and pink splotches on the
map. He thinks of Germany's devas-
tating march toward France. and the
map of central and western Europe
is clear and vivid in his mind.
Arithmetic has been made real by
the necessity of calculating Red
Cross and Thrift Stamp funds and
figuring percentages according to
numbers of pupils in the rooms.
English composition has taken on
a new interest in the effort to tell the
story of the war and the necessity for
relief work in an effective way. In the
manual training classes both boys and
girls have been making things for the
soldiers and the orphaned children of
France and Belgium, and into the art
work the youngsters have put their
whole hearts and done some really
beautiful posters and other designs
for the Red Crosse rt
Not only in their studies, but in
their dispositions do the children
show the result OF the war work.
Teachers agree that there is less quar-
reling and that children are far less
selfish than formerly. They have
learned to think of others. One teach
er tells Of a clique in her school that
had been giving her great deal of
trouble. The children from the more
comfortable homes had banded to-
gether for good times, excluding their
less fortunate comoanions. Since the
war work began this clique has dis.
solved Of its own accord and the chill
dren all help each other on an equal
basis.

keeping a working force of 1000 nner
Its labor turnover was very large.
Investigation showed tha. the yard
had grown so fast that too little at
tention had been paid to providing
for the comfort and convenience OF
ship workers. The lunch room was
inadequate, the food poor, it was diff
ficult for new workers coming in to
find good living quarters. and there
was little in the way OF bathing IA
cilities of recreation.
Housed in Floating Hotel.
Today ,' this shipyard is fully
manned and has little trouble in
keeping good workers. The expensive
item OF labor turnover has been re-
duced until it is practically negligi-
bic. The company purchased an old
passenger steamship, brought it to
the shipyard and converted it into a
floating hotel. First-class kitchen
equipment was installed, with toilets
wash rooms and other conveniences,
providing good meals for 200 or 800
men. A large dormitory was built
near the yard. with club room at
one end where men could rea write,
play pool or cards, have music and
visit and smoke. The sleeping ooms
in this dormitory were warmed by
hot air last winter, and the piping
system Is TO be used this summer for
blowing cool air through the cor
ridors. With these conveniences for
making their work pleasant the EN-
ployes organized "Shipbuilders'
Service club" elected officers and ar
ranged for base ball, bowling and
basket ball games, with dances and
other social affairs among themselves
1t is now becoming matter OF
pride among ship workers IN that
yard to serve for the period of the
war, and arrangements have been
made whereby every one who remains
in the employ OF the company until
the end Of the war will receive GER
tifcate showing that he, not only
served in the fight for democracy, but
that he stuck at his post until the
fight was won.
Uncle Sans work does not stop
with the cleaning up of bad health
conditions or the providing Of COM
fort and convenience. He will safe
guard life and health by giving the
the results Of the | IS. that
has been learned in war.
As an instance, the Dakin solution
which, the shipping board says, has
saved tens of thousands of soldiers
lives by preventing blood poisoning
and other after consequences Of
wounds. is being furnished in every
shipyard.

Will Keep Check on
 Profits of Packers
Federal Trade Commission Will Supervise Account
 ing of By-Products.

Washington, Nov. 22.---The Food Administration and the Federal Trade Commission are to keep close super vision of the profits made by the big meat packing houses of the country. This was made plain at a conference yesterday between the Food Adminis- tration and representatives of the Swift, Armour, Morris, Wilson and Cudahy companies.
 The conference drafted a general revision of the regulations under which the packing companies have been operating so as to make them correspond more precisely with the law under which the regulations were drawn Changes were made neces- sary by transfer of fertilizer super vision to the Department of Agricul- ture and of hides to the War Tndus- tries Board. The new regulations make no change in the percentage of profit which the packers are permit ted to make.
 It is stated that care has been taken to assure correct value trans fers on non-edi'ble items for the pur- pose of assuring close supervision of profits. The bookkeeping system has been simplified and perfected and a uniform system of accounting is be- ing applied. This work Is to continue under tlle general supervision of the Federal Trade Commission.
