1cles for enlarging their industries
and the perfection of their plans for
the extension of their industrial and
social benefits.
The Ford policy does not favor
large dividends to stockholders. 1t
favors, as is we'll known, profit
sharing system for its workmen and
the extension of this benefit to the
public through the reduction of
prices.
We know of no better way to pre-
vent wGr than to extend industry" de-
clared Mr.. Ford, in commenting on
the change in ownership of the COM
pany. I'VE plan to continue building
plants in all parts of the world. to
continue sharing our profits as we do
today with our employees and to re.
duce the price OF our product when
ever increasing production makes this
possible"
With the consummation of this
transaction the announcement made
last winter by Henry Ford to the eff
feet that he would enter upon the
manufacture of car which would
sell for considerably less than the
present model, is superseded by plans
for the steady extention of the present
concern.
The sale stands as striking ex-
ample of the possibilities of Ameri-
can business when the business is
backed by vision and trust IN the
possibilities of this country. Sixteen
years ago the Ford Motor company
was virtually little more than ma
chine shop with working capital of
a few thousand dollars. Today its
assets are said to total ut least $780,
900, 900, and every dollar paid in by
the few men who had faith in Henry
Ford and his invention has returned
thousands.

BOUT AT CARROLL
IS CALLED DRAW
Each Wrestler Wins Fall and
19-Year-0Id Lad Injuries
Shoulder; Is Forced to
Discontinue Match.

Those two heavyweight young
sters, Joe Stangl and Ross Dristy,
are back to the starting point again,
A year ago they wrestled in the
amateur tournament and Dristy was
the winner. They met as profess
SIGNALS at the Auditorium a month
ago and Stangl was the winner.
Last night at Carroll. Ia, they met
in what was billed as finish match
and they agreed to a draw decision
after each had gained a fall.
The first fall came after an hour
and IS minutes of hard wrestling,
Stangl pinning Dristy. They had a
15-minute rest and went at it again.
This time Dristy won the fall in IL
minutes. Stangl injured his arm in
some way and the managers of the
men held a short conference and it
was decided that the bout be called
draw, for Joe was unable to con-
tinue the match.
These fellows will have all that
work to do over again and it is like
ly that the Carroll Ia.) promoter
will land the match. Stangl's in
jury, while painful, is not serious,
and he will be in good trim for his
match with Len Zerson at the
Auditorium on Friday night.

Millions ofCatarrh

treating merely the symptoms of the
disease, and overlooks it's cause.
You must realize that Catarrh is
more than a mere local irritation that
stops up your nose and irritates your
throat and ,chokes up your breathing
apparatus.
Your blood is saturated with Catarrh
germs, and these will continue their
irritating attacks as long as they re
main in the blood.
The only sensible treatment, there
fore, is the one which will rout the
disease germs from the blood.
This is why the most satisfactory
remedy for Catarrh is s. s. s., the
famous old reliable blood purifier
Is. s. S. has been used successfully
for Catarrh for more than fifty years,
and it is the one remedy that attacks
the source of the disease, cleansing
the blood thoroughly, and eliminating
from it every trace of disease germs.
If you want remedy that goes d.
rect to the seat of the disease, begin
to take S. S. S. to-day, and throw
away your atomizers and other local
treatment that cannot possibly reach
your Catarrh. You will be delighted
after giving this remedy a trial, and
will soon find yourself on the road to
a complete recovery. S. S. S. is sold
by druggists everywhere.
Begin its use to-day, and write for
free medical advice about your own
individual case. Address Chief Med.

will surely get turned down, for the
Muny league officials have declared
themselves publicly and have issued
a decree to all Omaha ball PLAYERS
that they must play on open fields
exclusively if they play within the
M. L. jurisdiction. The Greater ON
aha league of the past two or three
years has been nothing more nor
less than semi-pro organization
and the organizers of the new anna
teur body are strictly against any
faint of semi-professionalism. Jake
lsaacson, the secretary, has been ap-
pointed director of the Midwest
Base Ball association and this BODY
troWns upon the near pro game.
When Omaha ball team hackers fall
in line with Bert Murphy's plan to
donate sum of money to go into
the pot with the gate receipts and
be divided at the end of the season,
then a semi-pro league may be real
lied. Until that time, there's nothing
dong, TOR the teams can't raise the
wind to foot the bills otherwise.
The Omaha Gun club boasts if its
great number of members and crack
shooters, but Fremont, smaller
town by far, has gun club that is
just about as big and has some
shooters that are just as classy. The
Fremonters had greater number of
scattergpnners out last Sunday than
did the Omaha organization and the
scores were better than any turned
in by the Omaha clubmen. The
weather conditions at both fields
were ideal and while some good
scores were made. the Omaha gun
handlers did not shoot up to their
usual standard. In Fremont, one
shooter turned in a clean score,
breaking 50 blue-rocks in 50 shots.
The best score on the local grounds
was Ray Kingley's AZ out of 50.
The big heavyweight champion,
Jess Willard, doesn't stay in one
place long enough for his mail to
catch up with him. Bert Murphy,
the local sportsman, was in Hot
Springs for a short vacation last
week and he says there are about
so letters at the Eastman hotel for
Jess. This mail has been piling up
for about a week or ten days and
there is probably more than that
many letters, etc, there for him now.
| Jess had better get another secre-
tary to look after such things for
him, now that he hasn't got Tom
Jones tagging around with him.

Bouts Under License by
Board of Control.

Albany, N. Y, March 1o..-At the
request of the army and navy and
civilian board of boxing control,
Senator James ]. Walker of New
York introduced in the legislature
today a bill designed to provide for
the legalizing of boxing bouts. This
is the third boxing bill that has. been
presented to the 1919 session.
The measure would create a state
athletic commissioner and two dep
uties to supervise boxing. Twelve
round contests would be permitted,
with decisions given by referee
and two judges. Five-ounce gloves
would be used; each contestant
would be subjected to an examina-
ton by physician before entering
the ring, the contestants would be
more thansl7 years of age, and no
boy under 10 years would be ad-
mitted as spectator. All boxers,
promoters, managers, t!mekeepers,
judges, referees, trainers and
handlers would be licensed by the
army and navy and civilian board

has been incorporated by the sec
rotary of state. The licenses would
be forfeited in the event of any Of

pose of the licensing feature is to
obtain as complete control over
boxing as is exercised by the jockey
clubs over racing.
Major Anthony j. Drexel Biddel
is president of the board of boxing
control; Major Gen. Leonard Wood
is chairman of the army committee
and Admiral Henry T. Mayo has
been asked to serve as chairman of
the naval committee. The patrons
of the organization include IA major
generals, Ia rear admirals, the gov
ernors of Nevada, Iowa and Ore

Sport Shorts
By KID GRAVES.

The big fellows that meet in the
heavyweight championship scrap on
July 4 have started training and
laid out their plans for the entire
course. Jess Willard, the champion,
will do most of his work on his
farm near Lawrence, Kan, having
Sergt. Walter Monahan as his chief
sparrlng partner. According to
the agreement with Richard, Jess
will have to be on the grounds 80
days before the big battle, but he
will make it point to do a little
work in Chicago before he goes to
the training grounds on the scene
of the scrap, wherever that will be-.
Jack Dempsey will do all his prepa-
tory work in a Chicago gymnasium
with Harry Wills, the giant negro
heavyweight scrapper, as his main
trainer. King Brady will superin-
tend the work of the challenger.
Jacks contract with the promoter
also calls fer his presence on the
battle-ground 80 days before the
scrap.
Omaha base ball fans will doubt
less remember Skipper Bill Shipke,
the old Rourke third baseman, and
sympathize with him in his recent
bereavement. Skipper Bill lost his
79-year-old mother last Monday.
Bill came to the Omaha club from
the sandlots of St Louis and proved
a wonderful inhelder, playing at
third base. His batting was weak,
but he more than made up for the
light stick work by his brilliant
fielding. This fellow is one of
those kind of men that wasn't
afraid to let it be known that he
adored his mother. When he re
ceived his first pay as a Rourke
player Pa asked, What are you 60
ing to do with this money, Bill?"
Shipke replied, 81 don't know, Mr..
Rourke, except that I'm going to
do one thing sure. My mother has
