Says Bob:
II thought I'd try to pick up Sec
Ond-hand automobile and enjoy some
of the delights Of the rich, and SO be-
gan scanning the for sale columns
Of the newspapers. I saw an adver-
tisement that told about Ford sedan
only slightly used and for sale at a
reasonable price.

given. A woman answered the call.
She said her brother had advertised
the machine; that he had bought the
Ford to use while he was having his
National painted. I told her I'd call
the next morning and talk to the
brother and received the reply:

can get him unless you call very early.
He leaves at five o'clock, because he
drives a milk wagon"

OPEN HOME FUND.-

Novel Savings Accounts to Be
lnaugurated in Omaha by
Banks and Building
Associations.

At the suggestion of the Omaha
Thrift week committee, Omaha
building and loan associations and
banks have agreed to open and main-
tain savings accounts to be known
as Home Fund" accounts.
The intention is to have owners
OF these accounts operate them spe-
elally for buying or building homes.
Home Fund" accounts may be
opened Tuesday, January 20, or any
day thereafter. They will be inter-
est bearing, and will be maintained
and operated just as any other
savings account.
Home Fund accounts will be
the means through which hundreds
OF persons in Omaha will become

Many Already Preparing.
Members of the Thrift commit

who are preparing to open Home
Fund accounts.
Home Fund" ACCOUNTS can be
withdrawn under the same condi-
tions that govern any other savings
account.
There will be no rule requiring
that the fund be used specifically
for home buying or building, but it
is believed that practically every
person starting such an account, will
keep it going for the one purpose
of building or buying a home. It's
growth will be like the growth of
a home, members of the committee
say.
Home Fund" accounts may be
started with any sum from 81 up
Persons opening these accounts
will receive pass books with the
words Home Fund" written on
them. The accounts viii, be carried
on books of financial institutions as

Special Attention to Home Funds.
In the financial institutions there
will be special windows for Home
Fund" depositors. Printed cards
and other notices will be put up,
calling attention to this new form Of
savings account.
There will be a count made Of
the number of Home Fund" ac-
counts opened each week. No fig
ures or names will be made public.
The "Home Fund" account pro-

been undertaken in any city in the
