GOOD INVESTMENT FOR CITY
Chamber of Commerce of Lincoln.
Neb., Has Introduced New Fea-
lures Of Great Value.

The Lincoln chamber of commerce
has three-foId function. It main
tains a club where all kinds of pub
lie and private gatherings are held
daily. 1t is the great clearing house
of social activity for the whole city
The facilities of a fine and roomy club
house are extended to nonmembers for
community purposes with complete
generosity The clubhouse, now worth
not far from S25O,O00, will soon be
paid for and will be in effect munich
pal building. The Lincoln achieve
ment in financing and erecting this
building is said to be unique in the
history Of cities Of Lincoln's class.
The second function of the chamber
is the massing of civic energy on So
luton of business, social and in
dustrial problems In many cities the
chambers confine their energies to this
kind of work. Lincoln spends not far
from $4,000 year in these activities,
including public hospitality, business
promotion, general advertising and the
encouraging Of new industries. The
work is done conscientiously by the
officers and committeeman. 1t is the
Judgment of the leading business men
that the results flowing from this work
are alone worth more than the entire
cost of the organization.
The third activity of the chamber is
the maintenance of traffic bureau
Comparatively few of the members
know that back in the club house out
of sight and hearing, telephones are
ringing almost constantly. They are
answered by rate experts who have at
their finger tips correct freight sched-
ules on all the commodities handled by
Lincoln firms. These experts save
large sums to the shippers, the aggre-
gate amounting to between $4,000
and $4,000 every year. This is but a
part of the work done by the bureau.
The battles conducted by Secretary
Written to prevent rate discrimina-
lions against Lincoln have been the
business salvation of the community

a CITY Kent Well.

A city is spick and span, well kept,
beautiful, when its individual homes
are neat and attractive, when its va
cant spaces are not eyesores. The
city is a collection of details. If these
are neglected, the city looks slovenly.
A man may think it makes no differ
ence if he is little careless around
his home, If he lets his lawn become
unkempt, if he dumps trash in va
cant lot. But such carelessness on
the part of one family may ruin an
attractive block, and one slovenly
block may hurt a whole neighborhood.
Such matters as cards tackled on
poles, advertising signs on boulevards
and in residence neighborhoods, weeds
and tin cans on vacant lots, may seem
small matters in any particular in
stance. But when such things accu-
mulate they make the city look ragged
and run down at the heel.

of the Red Crescent, and when pro-
ficient they will be deputed to make

well cared for, and that the family
food is properly cooked. The first

the nobility.

woman,s Interest Means Much.

When we speak of home, we must
not forget the larger home-the COM
munity We, as mothers must be in
terested and take an active part in all
that concerns the welfare of the world
into which our boys and girls find
their way when the doors of the
mother home swing out The environ
ment we create inside our four walls
will influence the lives of those chill
dren in the days 'of struggle and eff
fort to find places for themselves in
the world. There is no perfect home
Neither will there ever be a perfect
community. But if the community at
mosphere more nearly approaches that
Of the best homes, our fears and our
doubts would be ,lessened when our
babies grown tall set forth in search
OF adventure. The woman's interest
and influence will go far toward max
ing the community an enlarged and
magnified home of which we can and
will be proud, and not afraid.

Bird colorinos.

A scientist, in discussing color Sin
birds (reds, yellows and greens as due
to pigments, and blues and VIII Aes as
due to air spaces in the feathers),
says that person who admires color
without some of the intellectual
background gets little more enjoy
ment out of such things than an idiot
playing with his jangling bits of glass.
This is a little severe, but we must
agree that both are limited to emo
tional enjoyment only, and that to one
whose mind is stimulated, such color
associations enrich his experiences

Monkev Resaons.

1t used to be thought that beasts
and birds were guided in their action
entirely by instinct, reason playing no
part whatever in their daily lives. But
now naturalists are not 50 sure. 10
learn to use a lever as a mechanical
instrument implies, one would think, a
certain amount Of reasoning power.
Yet a monkey kept in captivity en-
ployed a stick to pry up the lid OF a
chest which was otherwise too heavy
for the animal to raise.

Paint Your Home,

Paint will do wonders for home.
1t brings refreshing appearance,
gives a pleasing touch and is a source
of satisfaction to the owner. Probably
you have noticed when one home own
er paints his dwelling that the paint
ing germ soon inoculates all the 9TH
er home owners near that property.
It's an Infection that works for better
homes. A few dollars for paint is al
ways a good investment.

Credit Accorded Luther.

One story ascribes the first Christ
mas tree to Martin Luther who con-
ceiyed the rather pretty idea that the
dark branches of the young spruce,
gayly Illuminated with colored candles
and hung with its bright ornaments
and gifts, would suggest to the chill
dren the dome of heaven with its in
Vulnerable stars. ana, perhaps,
thoughts of praise and gratitude to
Him who is the Giver of all good
things around them.
