Head Of Community
Service Speaks on
Memorial Building

James Edward Rogers OF New
York, national director OF the de-
partment OF training of the COM
munity service, spoke on community
service and community memorial
buildings at the conference commit
tee meeting in the Chamber of Com
merce atrnoon Monday. The confer
cnce committee is made up of rep
resentatives' of various organiza-
tons of the city. '
Mr.. Rogers said that 354 cities of
the United States have already
built or are planning community
memorial buildings. Racine, Wis,
city Of $4,000, is raising $750,000
for community memorial building,
he said.
Whenever the American Legion
has been asked for all expression as
to the kind of memorial that
should be erected in honor of those
who gave their lives in the world
war it has declared in favor of COM
munity~ memorial buildings, he said.
Mr.. Rogers said that the COM
munity memorial building serves to
preserve democracy at home, as the
American soldiers fought to pre-
serve it in France and that it is
therefore particularly fitting as
memorial.
The conference committee decided
to take up Americanization as its
first campaign. 1t will probably
take up the community memorial
project at the next meeting.

IN ROBBERY OF
LOVE RESIDENCE
Pair of Small, Fancy, Fur.
Lined Gloves Leads to
Supposition.

A pair of small, fancy fur-lined
gloves left in. the summer home of
A. ]. Love, mile out of Omaha on
the West Leavenworth road, when
a gang Of burglars broke into the
place Friday night and looted every
room of rugs, furniture, jewelry and
kitchen utensils, leads Sheriff Clark
to believe woman was in the case.
Several articles of clothing, be-
sides a Victrola and woman's S
dressing table that were taken, also
point to the supposition that wom-
an operated with the gang.
The burglary was discovered Sat
urday morning when Herman White
and his wife, in charge of the farm,
returned from visit to Omaha, and
notified Sheriff Clark.
The burglars used an automobile
truck, it was learned. Entrance to
the house was gained by breaking
open a basement window, then using
heavy furnace poker to batter
down the panels of a door leading
upstairs.
The loss totals $4,000, Mr.. Love
said. 80
."Highjackers" broke into the Love
summer home month ago and
stripped the basement of liquor,
nothing else being taken at that
time.
