The drummer was the most seriously | hurt, as he strained his vocal chovds in scared yells. Outside of several cuts from flying glass, bruises and a couple of black eyes, the boys are well and jazzing again. The orchestra consists of Robert Perry, Thomas Rou lette, George Fitzpatrick 'nd Law rence Parker, all of Omaha.

Hygiene: Selection of a Sile. The Drat things to consider in the management of any herd are the hy gienic conditions under which it must be started and maintained. We therefore will first turn our at tention to the proper selection of a site and then the construction of sani tary stable for that bprd. In looking over our plot of ground we must choose a slightly elevated spot, away from large buildings or banks, since these obstruct free cir culation of air. Avoid close proximity to swamps and sluggish streams, a“ these give an excess of moisture. Dry, coarse, gravelly or sandy sub soil is very desirable material upon which to lay the foundations, as water passes readily through many founda tion walls, keeping them permanently moist and cold. Clay soils should be thoroughly drained before receiving a foundation. The material for tlie con i struct Ion should be compact and wa terproof (cement, hard baked tile). The walls may be further protected from soil moisture by enclosing a I layer of asphalt or heavy sheet tar | paper In the foundation wall near the top Too may get proteetion from at mospheric moisture by extending the | layer of asphalt over the outer anil inner sides of the walls. Mulls, f ellings and Floors. The walls should be made of porous material (non-conductor of heat and cold t to retain heat In winter and ex clude It in the summer. Such material I uk wood, air spaces, heavy building paper, tar paper, dry sand and tile blocks. The outer surface of the wall must lie waterproof to exclude mois ture. such as ruin, snow and water vapor: paint, glazed tile, hard cement plaster, tar paper beneath clapboards are recommended. The inner surface of tile walls must be waterproof also, have a smooth surface, and be free from grooves or cracks to prevent the accumulation of dirt and germs. Smooth white-washed boards, plaster boards. gluzed tile or brick, bard ce ment plaster are all good. Walls con structed entirely of cement or stone i are entirely loo cold in winter, tlie material is too compact; they are, however, cool in summer. Ceilings require the same smooth, waterproof and warm construction as the walls. Warmth may be provided by roughage stored above. There should, however, be no permanent opening through the celling of n Htable Into a hay-loft ubove. Dust from the ruoghage. damage to food from stable gases, Interference with ventilation are the results. Article 1 will be continued in the next issue with Instructions for lay ing sanitary floors and will give some dimensions of stables holding 50-70 head of cattle. OMAHA TO HAVE BRANCH OF YOI'NG WOMEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Central Association Plans Extension Work on North Side—National I, W. C. A. Worker in City Making Sur vey Interviews Many Prominent Business Men and Women Who Favor Project. Omaha! is to be one of the forty or more cities where a constructive pro gram for women and girls is to be followed. As the city west of the Mis sissippi river which has the largest colored population, her need for work of this kind is evident. It was with much satisfaction that Omaha wel comed Mrs. Cordelia Wynne, National Y. W. C. A. secretary, who came re cently to make a survey of the needs and possibilities of our community. And upon her recommendation the board of directors of the central Y. W. C. A. voted to take up this extension work among the worhen and girls. This is the first of the many possible branches the central association might have here. New York City has a large metro politan hoard doing extension work all over that city with 27 branches doing work among all girls—Polish, Bo hemian, itaiian. French. Negroes, and embracing the thickly settled districts of the entire suburb. Omaha is to have her first branch which will no doubt be situated on the north side easily accessible to the majority of our girls. Mrs. Wynne who met while here many people representing all the va rious interests expressed herself as pleased and encouraged by the pos sibilities for the work she saw here and the disposition of the people to rally to the support of the project. In speaking of the work of the as sociation, Mrs. Wynne said: “The Young Women’s Christian As sociation is a movement world wide in its scope and embracing in its sis terhood all girls of every race and creed and color. It has a constructive program proven and tried by fifty years of service to women and girls, reaching all sides of their life and ministering to them in mind and body and spirit and well as answering their need for group activity ma'i ing them a social force for the extension of the kingdom of God. Recreation that is 're-creation as well as play is at the foundation of the program of the as sociation. To make the girls who will be the women of the next generation fit and worthy mothers will be a worth while contribution of any community to the sum total of the nation’s life.” For Sale—A number of 5 and 6 room houses, strictly modem on paved street.

Mrs. : Wynne has been in Omaha making a survey of conditions here and has rec ommended that the work be begun in Omaha to answer the distinct need for constructive work among women and girls in this city.
