A word about salaries
If you have developed your resources trained
yourself thoroughly you will be pleased every time
1 you look at your bank account. If you have not made
1 the most of your hidden power you will have no bank
account at all, or one very small in comparison to '
' that of the man who makes the most of his business
opportunities.
Here axe two men of practically the same age.
One has a substantial bank account By properly -directed
effort he ha9 risen to a high position. With .
A comfortable salary he can lay away a satisfactory
sum. The second fellow, with just as much hidden
power, though undeveloped, has no bank account at
all. His position pays him a fair salary, but he is
'- not getting the, best out of himself and he has very
little, if any, money to place to a bank account after
paying current expenses. " ; - ...
You can be earning a far better salary
if you will take advantage of your opportunity. You
. should not be satisfied with what you are doing, no
matter if you are earning $1,800, $3,00, $5,00 or
$8,000. You can just as well be getting two or three
times as much if you will direct your efforts into the
..right channels.
The Omaha Bee
will give you 'information that will lead you out of
your present position into a bigger salary. There is
a demand for your serv
ices at much more
money. You can rise.

WILL TRY TOPUSH THE WORK
County Board Will Attempt to Hake
Court Home Contractors Hustle.
WILL 0EDIS MEETING SATURDAY
Resolution Is Prepare, bat la Sat
Adapted Pending; Advise fresa
the Coaaty Attorney's
Office.
After months ot wrangling between the
Board ot County Commissions and County
Architect Latenser on one aide and Cald
well a Drake, county building general
contractors on ths other over alleged un
satisfactory work and slow progress in
construction ot the building, the board
almost adopted a resolution yesterday
that would bring the contractora to time
Commissioner Harte waa afraid the gen
eral contractors might find in the resolu
tion some excuse fur forfeiting their con
tract and suggested that the county at
torney's office approve the resolution be
fore Its adoption. It was referred to the
county attorney.
The resolution refers specifically to the
attitude of the general contractors In the
matter of vault doors which are not up
to speclflratlona and ia aa follows.
Whereas, It has been reported to the
Board of County Commissioners thst the
architect, John laueruer, has condemned
and rejected the "vault doors" of the new
court house, and
' Hhereaa, The contractors, Caldwell A
Drake, have been notified that the same
have been condemned and rejected and
have been ordered to be taken out and
others put in their stead to conform with
tne plans and specifications, therefore,
be It
Kesolved, That the county attorney be
notified and instructed to serve notice
upon Caldwell a lirake and their bonds
men to appear before the ' Board of
County Commmslonera at a time set by
the county attorney to show reason and
uune why the orders o.' the architect
have not been compiled with. ,
Will Adept Saturday. '
According toDeputy County Attorney
George A. Magnejr there Is nothing in
the resolution lhaf could warrant or Jus
tify forfeiture of the contract and the
county attorneys office will so advise
the, board. The resolution will be adopted
at the board meeting next Saturday.
The mealing with the general contractors
and their bondsmen will be held soma
time next week. If neither member of
the firm Is In the city their superintend
ent. Calvin Zelgler, or thalr office man
ager, Mies Helen Sinclair, will be asked
to represent them.
Mors than two weeks ago severe criti
cism of Ihe work oa the county building
by Mr. Latenser and Commissioner Harts
moved ths board to agree to summon
Caldwell ft Drake and their bondsmen
for a thorough threshing out of county
building matters. The meeting waa to
have been held aa soon aa Mr. Caldwell
or Mr. Drake should reach the oily.
Since then Miss Sinclair and Mr. Zelgler
have been expecting Mr. Caldwell to ar
rive almost dally, but he has not yet put
In an appearance. 1
Several months ago, when the Board of
County Commissioners threatened dras
tic action to force the contractors to ruth
ths building to completion, Lester Drake
came to Omaha and for a while the work
rushed forward under his direction. It
was said be would remain in Omaha
practically all the time until the work
should be completed. Mr. Drake did not
remain, however. '
People Helped by
Charity During the
Cold Spell Grateful
Are the poor folk In Omaha any dif
ferent from those In other cities?
Ensign Thomas ot the local Salvation
Army post believes that they are. tor
aha says that In all ot her experience In
charitable work she bas never run across
a town where the poverty stricken popu
lation as a whole wish to repay kindness
after they have been helped "to their
feet."
'During the cold spell ws helped hun
dreds of persons who were cold or hun
gry or without shelter, and as Is usually
the case, they were pitifully grateful,"
said the ensign. "However, they usually
forget that they bars been helped after
they bave bad their Immediate wants
provided for, but In Omaha I have found
wiieram.
Since the breaking ef the eold spell
and people who were unable to work a
few months ago can work now. we have
had nearly a dosea calls and letters from
those who received aid who wish to know
now they can repay ua. One man. who
Is a plasterer, who has been sufferina
from lead poisoning, called and Insisted
that be be allowed to do something In re
turn for our aid.. We had nothing for
him. but we thanked him for hla good
will anyway, but a few hours later we
found him at work In the back end of the
hall, making a number ot repairs that
were badly needed.
A woman whe was found HMna In a
dugout in the river bottoms, hungry and
atca. otierea ner swrrtree as a scrub
woman, and a number of .men waa bave
been helped hare appeared Deraanltv
and earnestly aaked to be allowed to do
something to show their gratitude. From
tne reports 1 hear iron the other chant.
able organisations, they. too. are experi
encing the same thing, and It makes one
feel good to Know tnat the work la being
appreciated."
