Ramson has announced that the show this week Is to mark another opportunity for citizens of Omaha who have not as yet signed their application to become knights of the realm of Qulvera to join the organiza tion. In a royal edict Ramson calls on all to coma to the show snd join “the gang." „ “Ak-Sar-Ben,” declares Gamsnn, “stands for all that Is best in Ne braska. It is Omaha’s means of en tertaining viaitore during the- sum mer months and means mora than most people realize. “But Ak-Sar-Ben can not exist with out a full quota of members and this year these members have not come along as they should. “Ak-Sar-Ben was originally organ ized as a means of Improving vbuil ness of Nebraska and Omaha. It has not as yet outlived Its original pur pose. Nor will thia time ever come. No matter how prosperous Ne braskans may become there will al ways be work for such an organiza tion to do.” Wymore Girlg Sought.

Putting the lost warble back Into tiny feathered songsters and mend ing broken legs and wings for un fortunate bird pets Is the work of one Omaha man, H. B. Boyd, who at present time has the “health” of be tween 800 and 900 birds in his care. A majority of Boyd's "patients” are birds whirh have lost their song. When he receives them, he proceeds to put them in cheery surrohndlngs, give them the requlrer kind of food, and "a pill or two.” Soon, the bird begins to brighten up, takes note of the songs of other birds around him, and it is not long before he, too, is rocking on his perch and warbling once more. Boyd, who for 48 of his BT years has worked with birds, has his home literally filled with birds. Every win dow is lined with cages In which canaries hop about. “A bird needs just as much care as a human and his food is just as important," Boyd asserted. “If own ers would feed a bird as carefully as y— they do themselves, I wouldn’t hare so many to care for. "Few people know that birds catch cold easier than a human. This turns (*) cholera soon and the bird dies. Most trouble Is from lack of proper care. A bird's toenails and bill must be trimmed. If a canary’s bill be comes too long. It cannot pick up food and soon dies. While a parrot needs a long bill. "When a bird fluffs up, humps his head down between his shoulders, re fuses to eat and his eyes get pale, he's sick. He either has a cold, his food is not right or the environment is wrong.'” A good bird can be easily "spoiled.’’ Boyd asserted. A German roller, placed among English or American birds, will forget his own song and learn the song of the other birds. Cats and birds in the same house never Jibe, he eaid. Birds caught by cats and birds whose cages are acci dently knocked down are Boyd'e chief surgical patients. He once received a midnight call from a women whose bird was caught In a curtain and Its leg broken. He repaired the Injured member, put It into splints and in a short while it was again swinging on its perch. “Marrying Parson,” 74, in Pulpit 47 Years, to Be “Going Good” at 100 Kev Cliarlen W.

In 1850, his father was a minister. At the time of his boyhood, says Rev. Savldge, the Lord starting answering his pray ers and he felt the call to go Into the ministry. He came to Omaha in 1882 to the First Methodist church. He served as pastor there for three years. After spending three more years at the Methodist church at Twenty-second and Seward streets, Rev, Mr. Savldge went to Grand Island, Neb., where he preached In the Rartenback’s opera house to large congregations for one year.

When he took thle move, his fellow-ministers said, "Brother Savldge, you're crery. You can't live. Your children will went." “But they’re all eduoated,” he eald with a siAlle. Not content with being Just a preacher. Rev. Mr. Savldge has written six books which have had a good sale. They are: “Shots from the Pulpit,” In- 1888; "Arrows,” In 1892: "The Way Made Plain," In 1897; "Modern Christianity," In 1899; "Have Faith tn God,” In 1914; and "How to Get.
