A new industry ha been added to he many in Omaha and will help 10 ionic extent in relieving the job less aituation in the city. The new plant is that of a woo! pullcry, which 11 located at Thirty-sixth and K streets and will be open for business about November IS, with J. K. Hyde as manager. Mr. Hyde said the plant was one, ai the name indicate, which ia an adjunct to the packing industry, to pull the wool from the Iamb and sheep pclti to put the short-fiber fleeces in condition, for the manufac ture of wool cloth. The plant has every facility for the work and has a capacity of l.SOO pelt daily, which wiil be obtained from the large packing plants and other avail able sources. "Many people have the incorrect idea that a wool pullcry is a place where wool batts. mas and carpets are made." said Mr. Hyde. "Instead. it is a plant where the wool is re moved from the sheep pelts ine same as feathers are taken from a chicken and then dried, sorted and put in readiness h r the manufac ture of certain wool fabrics. "Our plant, which is the first in this section of the country, has the advantage of gctt'nrj fresh pelts di rect from the pack'nt houses. They will be soft and pliable and can be handled more easily than dried pelts sent in from a distance. Formerly 'pelts taken from sheep rnd Jambs were shipped to Chicago or Kansas City, where pullcrics have been es tablished for several years." The new plant will employ a large number of men and women. Boy Scouts Searching.

Aa the prophet says: "AH we, like sheep, have gone astray. We have turned every one to hit own way." And Paul said later. "All have finned and come short of the glory of Cod." The average man and woman ii quite prepared to confess, the other fellow is a sinner who must repent and turn to God. But it is the feeling of deep conviction in my own heart that I have sinned and that I am a rebel against God that is absolutely necessary. Jesus has nothing to tav and nothing to do for the self-righteous. I Mothers Honored by Gipsy at Auditorium (CnllaiMd Vrm ri9 Om.) Gipsy, from his choir." The mem bers of the W. C. T. U. presented the evangelist with a bououet of white carnations. Biggest Mothers' Day. "It's the biggest Mothers' day at tendance I have ever seen in all my ministry,"' the evangelist said. For the occasion "Wee Willie" McEwan, choir leader, selected "old songs for the old people" and all hymns were the old familiar ones. Just as the services were getting nicely under way the members of the "melody makers," the Fontc relic orchestra, came upon the stage and played throughout the singing. They played two special numbers, "Wonderful Peace" and' the barca rolle from "The Tales of Hoffman." In his prayer the Rev. C. E. Cob bey asked a special blessing from God for the mothers. Special nurses and attendants were present to take care of restive little ones, so the young mothers might enjoy the services. War Mothers Honored. Mothers who had the greatest number of sons in the war receivH a Dounucc 01 nowers ana inr. star- 1 t n ..rr r . W"" was sung in their honor. ' Mrs. Dale Clark also sang a special number, and Mr. McEwan sang "I'll Wear a White Flower for You," a Mothers' day song. The members of the various com mittees who were active in putting on the Mothers' day program were brought to the platform and intro duced to the audience by the evange list. Mrs. Carl Gray preceded the evangelist with a short address which was directed to the mothers. "I have known Gipsy Smith for a long time and I believe I learned of Christ the same way he did, being lonesome for my mother. How would you like to go back with me, just for a little while, to your moth er's knee?" she asked, and then re- Time, in Your Flight," as E.

' ' "Since I have been in Omaha and as long as I stay here," Mrs. Gray said,, "I shall preach and teach one text and that will be Jesus Christ and Him crucified." Pleads With Young Mothers. ' "We have gone back into the years" now: what would you like to hear your mother say?" She then re peated a bit of the Lord's prayer. She read portions of the scriptures which pointed out the duties of mothers to their husbands, home and children, that they might create a spirituality becoming in the sight of God. To the young mothers she was more powerful in her plea for right living and rearing of children. ''I have seen young mothers play ing cards and smoking cigarets while nursing their babies. I have seen young mothers nursing their babies who were not dressed in a way be coming their womanhood. This' is not the influence Christ wants you to exert in your, homes," she said. The speaker urged that the older mothers be teachers and guides to the younger. To show them the value of being chaste, good home makers and obedient to their hus bands. : She said to read the scrip tures and to teach the word of God diligently to their children. In closing she made an urgent plea for all mothers to accept Christ as their :1a ill 111 "Hi and W He came for sinners. When man feel i hit fin and how undone it has made him. he will be ready to call for the doctor who can cure hit disease. He will then be ready to confess hit tin openly, if nerritary, before the world, in order that pardon and cleansing may be his, and healing come to the woundt which fin lias caused. No conventions, no pride, real or false, and no shame will he allow to ttand between him and the only source which can give him relief. He must ronfest openly and what it more, he desires to do it when he gets to the place where he wishes sincerely to be healed, and saved. If, perchance, he fell on hit knees in his own bedroom and made fu'l surrender to God and trusted Him for salvation and received it, do you suppose he could keep tilcnt about it? The very joy of it would tend him out, ana he would want every, body to know of the Lord't mercy, 1 nit it the method ot the workina of Hi grace.

Gipsy Smith followed with a half hour sermon, part of which he ad dressed to the mothers and part to the shutins at his fret. "Of all the people in the world who should do God's work, mothers are most able because of their power to do gooM and of their won derful .influence on everybody with whom they come in contact "I have seen women soar to spir itual heights never approached by man," he said, "and I have seen them sink to depths no man could reach. The highest mountains have the lowest valleys, and as woman has the greatest conception of spiritual ity she can also surpass man in evil. "I covet your womanhood, your wifehood and your motherhood for Christ," he said. "You can do more good than anybody I know." The evangelist hurled criticisms at the heads of young women who were toa selfish to bring children into the world, and fondle dogs in stead of babies. Scores Women Smokers. "It takes more religion to nurse a baby than it does a dag," he ,said. God never meant for a woman to nurse a dog. If he had he would have placed them in a kennel.- God made woman with arms for a baby. She's the mother of the race." He also hurled his sarcasm against the gambling, cigaret smoking young mothers. No mother can have a spiritual influence over a man if she has habits the man cannot respect." His sermon was filled with stor ies of his boyhood, how he stood with his little sister at his mother's i grave and of the unselfish devotion of women to the soldiers during the war. To the shutins and cripples he said: "Some of you can't hear and some can't see. Many of, you are on beds of pain, but some day that will all pass. AH your pain will leave you. You will say 'good night' to suffer ing and good, morning to Jesus. There will be no more suffering. win lay uown mc cross auu take up the crown;" The flowers at the -Auditorium will be. gathered up : this morning and be distributed . to the hospitals ci the city by the evangelist.
