Opening Of Specially
Shop Realizes Life
Dream of Omaha Man

With the opening of Sommer's
Speciality Shop in the Brandeis thea
ter building at least one Omaha
mans life dream has come true.
About 20 years ago a young emil
grant landed in Omaha. He was
broke, could not speak the Amer
lean language and friendless. AS
soon as he learned to pronounce
few words he qualified as a delivery
boy, and from that time on applied
himself to the retail food business
until he had the finest grocery store
in Omaha.
When his Dundee store had been
made part of the aristocratic SUI
burban life his eyes turned to the
heart of Omaha's shopping district,
and as result Sommer's Speciality
Shop is Omaha's newest venture.
1t has long been Louis Sommer's
dream to have speciality food shop
second to none in the middle west,
and he has achieved his object, as
the worlds markets have been
searched for delicacies which appeal
~ SPiSui cans WIZ nave OCClI ulidUlC
to satisfy their desires in Omaha.
The Sommer's Speciality Shop is
in 4 class by itself. as no other
Omaha merchant has attempted to
handle only the highest grade of
food products, regardless of price.
The new shop is to be a one-price
venture. No seconds will be carried
or sold, Louis Sommer stalking his
reputation and investment on the
theory that Omaha has now reached
that stage in development when
enough of its people have been edu
Gated to the point where the best is
none too good for them. The new
shop is the last word in high grade
food products, much of the stock
being imported.
1t has been named the Speciality
Shop for the reason that the one
specially featured in its stock is the
absolute high grade products
brought to Omaha for the first time.

WOODSTOCK WOMAN NURSE
BACK WITH BLINDED SOLDIERS

Miss Dorothy Richardson of Wood
stock, this state, a Red Cross nurse.
arrived at New York on the transport
George Washington Wednesday with
nine soldiers who had been blinded in
war under her care. When she first
went abroad Miss Richardson served
in Paris as an aide nurse Then she
secured service near the battle front
and was for months in the zone of fire,
where She had to wear her steel he'll
met and gas mask most of the time.
Eventually she was transferred to
SaVenoy, where the American war
blinded were concentrated. For near
ly two months Miss Richardson has
had charge of the nine men with whom
she came home and she will accom-
pany them to a hospital in Baltimore.
Relating some of her experiences,
Miss Richardson said:
vi course, We were in the danger
zone. BOche shells were fvinr and
bullets were whizzing by, but we could
not stop to think about them. The
doctors were busy trying to ease the
pain and save the lives of our brave
Y anhee boys. l suppose if we hadn't
anything to do we would have been
scared. for it was a pretty serious sit
uation.
The splendid heroism of our dough
boys would put courage into any heart
Torn and bleeding. they never whim-
pered, never a complaint from them
Tell the folks in New England that
they have every reason to feel proud
of their Yankee division. They were a
great lot of boys. Not one of them did
l see who was not anxious to get out
of the doctors hands and back to his
outfit to finish the job he went over
, to do.

right up to the front and shared the
/ hardships of the fighting with our
heroic soldiers and doctors
I'VE nurses worked day and night
