Lawrence Parker's famous Midway
jazz band, which for some time has
been playing in Kearney, Neb., had a
miraculous escape from serious injury
Thursday evening when the ear in
which they were coming from a dance
fell eight feet into a ditch. Drums,
saxophones, coronets, music and col
ored gentlemen were scattered in va
rious directions. The car, which was
it limousine type, was badly wrecked.
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. The
Kearney people are delighted at their
escape as the boys are grpat favor
ites in the J*./z tw.e.

HINTS TO THE SMALL STOCKMAN
ARTICLE I.
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

dent. Rev. John Albert Williams, pre- j
I siding. Reports of committees and

A lively discussion followed the re
j marks of some of the members rela

licity. The matter was referred to
the committee on the press.
The most interesting part of the
meeting was the speech made by Mrs.
Cordelia Wynne. National Y. W. C.
A. worker of New York City. 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. The branch went on
record as indorsing thiB movement.
Bethel Baptist church will be the
place of meeting for next Sunday aft
ernoon at 4:30.
1\ O. CLERKS AND CARRIERS
