A romance of old ireland with an

songs by the beloved Irish tenor,
John Mccormack, will be revived
ipy the memory of an Omaha couple
when Mr.. Mccormack gives his
concert here Friday evening.
In April IS years ago an Irish lad

on the platform with John McCor-

MI. Mccormack sang "The Holy

New Essex Car Causes
Much Interest Among
H Motorists Of Omaha


Guy L. Smith surprised himself
Thursday.
On that day he introduced to Om-
aha the new Essex car. He has
told Omahans he had big surprise
in store for them, and they were
surprised, too.
"But / had a pleasant surprise
myself" he said Saturday. Il never
expected so much interest on the
part OF the public. We had $50
callers and made more than $50
demonstrations"
Mr.. Smith believes the Essex fills
a long-unfilled want in the motor
world.
Cup to this time we've had two
distinct types of car" he said. "0ne
was the large, heavy, luxurious car
that costs a lot of money. The
other was the extremely low-priced,
low grade car.
"The Essex is substantial COM
bination of both. 1t win cost less
to buy and less to maintain. | see
a great future for it."
The Essex promises to be one Of
Mr. Smiths most interesting ex-
hibits at the Omaha automobile

Weeks Real Estate
Transactions Are More
Than a Quarter Million

Figures compiled by Harry
Pearce, register Of deeds, show that
Omaha real estate transactions for
the week ending Friday noon were
y$264, 357 These figures do not in
clude some of the bigger deals con-
summated the latter part of the
week. They do include, however,
1856 separate transactions, nearly all
small deals. More than $4,000
worth of these deals were for homes
of moderate prices.
All dealers in this class of prop
erty are having almost uIiprecedent-
ed activity for this time of year.
Usually the home-buying business
does not commence before the mid
die of February. This has been the
experience OF such men as w. FL.
Gates and others of the older real
tors in this city.
Another feature of the realty bus
mess last week was the numerous
inquiries for new houses that are
just being built and for those that
have not yet been started-just on
paper so far.

Government Releases All
Restrictions on Auto Tires

with the release Of government
restriction Of pneumatic tire output
we are now able to announce the
resumption of quantity production
of pneumatic tires for private use,
says c. A. Cramer, branch manager
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.
"The shortage OF tires that ex-
listed during the war period was in
evitable, for promptly upon our
country's entry into the war the
tire factories devoted large share
of their effort to the production Of
gas masks, sirplane, automobile and
truck tires, and balloons, which
were greatly needed by our military
forces.
'Now that normal conditions are
being rapidly restored, tire users
are looking to us to provide for
their wants, and we are pleased to
state that this is being done as rap
idly as possible,
TO insure prompt delivery, how
ever, tire users should at once es-
innate their near-future needs, plac-
ing their orders with service sta
ton dealers.

Kissel Dealer Urges
More Efficiency and
Economy for Autoists

Il believe il motol Struck owners
would conduct inve igations with
the object to elimint c unnecessary
losseS of time and lal ,r in operation
and maintenance they would be
astounded at the saving they could
effect each year" says Carl Chang
strom OF the Standard Motor com
pany, local Kissel distributor.
For example, the director gen.
eral OF railroads short time ago
found that by consolidating ticket
Offices and terminals and shortening
freight routes. millions of dollars
were saved, efficiency increased and
wages raised in the face of an
ieight-hour day.
These changes were made to
move the most men and material
needed by the government, and in
dicates what can be done when
study and care are exercised to cree
ate efficiency and economy. / have
often wondered what would happen
if motor truck owners, especially
those operating fleets, would con-
duct such an economy campaign.
During the past year, the vast
quantity of materials and equipment
which had to be moved by motor
trucks, created certain amount Of
carelessness and unnecessary ex-
pense. Owners didn't have to see
how cheapiy they could move these
goods, but rather, how much they
could move in the shortest possible
time, irrespective of methods en-
ployed or the cost thereof. Now
with peace time at hand, every bust
ness concern operating motor trucks
should exercise economy as we'll as
promote efficiency, and believe
great results will acrue if the above
lesson of the railroads was given
serious consideration.

MYSTERY Is CLEARED
Knife Used BY Suicide 20 Years Aee
10 Found.

A thirty-year mystery vas cleared
up recently at the Hancock county
to- infirmary when George Bailey
found a butcher knife between two
studdlngs In one OF the walls Of the
abandoned buildings which Is being
torn down by order Of the county com
missioners.
Thirty years ago an inmate Of the
institution cut his throat from ear to
ear. No knife or sharp instrument
was ever found with which the deed
might have been committed.
According % the theory advanced
after the discovery Of the knife by
Bailey, the suicide placed the knife on
top of a beam and II fell between the
~studdines. where ii remained for thirty
years. The knife still retains its razor
edge and Is only slightly corroded.
