Dr. Rosenau Speaks
of Great Advances
He Notes in Omaha
Former Well Known Rabbi in Charge
of Temple Israel Here to Meet
Old Friends.
Omaha has Improved wonderfully since
he left It nineteen years ago, says Dr.
William Rosenau,. former rabbi at Temple
Israel, who Is In the city for a few days'
visit. "Bomeone told me on the train that
If I hadn't been in Omaha for nineteen
years I woulda't recognise It, and It Is al
most true. Omaha has Improved In every
way, but the thing most noticeable to me
Is the Improved business atmosphere and
the Increased noise 'and bustle."
"I was only In Omaha for three years,
but I believe those were the very three
years when it was regaining Its equillbrlm
after the boom days and its location and
environment have enabled It to keep Its
position among western cities. A great
many of the old landmarks are gone, and
' that Is a fine thing, but I am grieved to
note that so many of the personal land
marks have also been removed. Many who
were prominent cltlsens nlnetoen years ago
have passed away."
"I never came hack to a city more
gladly," said Dr. Rosenau. "Here I had
my first pulpit, received my first encour
agement In ministerial work from the late
Edward Roaewater, and it was here that
I found my wife, who before she married
me was Mabel Hellman, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Myer Hellman, then well known
cltlsens."
Dr. Rosenau Is at present located In Bal
timore, Md., where he la at the head of
one of the city's largest Jewish congrega
tions. "I have stayed In Baltimore," said
Dr. Rosenau, "in the face of flattering
offers from other places because my at
tachment for my congregation, because of
my oonnectlon with John Hopkins univer
sity where X am an associate In the Semi-
tics department and because I have been a
member of the Baltimore School Board and
have been much interested In that work."
The well known divine is enroute from a
summer assembly of Jewish - Chautauqua
societies In Milwaukee, which he has been
attending, to Denver, where he Is to speak
on Tuesday, While In tne city he Is a
guest at the home of A. Heller, 2412 St.
Mary's avenue, and is to talk Sunday morn
ing at the Temple Israel.

not be disturbed. Between 10 a. m.. and
4 p. m. Is the most convenient time for
the nurses and the' babies to receive visi
