.. An average attendance of
thirty-seven children a day was recorded
for the year.
The following Is the report of Mrs Mc
Mahon: "V
'The last year has been one ,pntfi
most Important and fortunate,; although
In many ways the most disturbed and ex

were unable to have our lease extended,

so we faced the problem of an Immedi
ate home for the Dttlo children under our
care Mm. Kimball. came to tho rescue
with her old home on Park Wild avenue.
July II the Creche waa moved from Its
home of twenty-five yearn. Wo received
nirt nf nur tienuest. amounting to J 10, WW,
from the Anna Wilson estate. Invested In
good mortgages, the Income .of which has
helped tide us over many hard places.
Through the kind offices ot Mayor and
Mm nnWm.n nnd the city commissioners
wo were enabled to buy a most desirable
lot from tho city for a. day nursory,4o
rated Just cast" of the corner of Twenty
ninth nmi l turner streets. Wo have been
delayed In building on account of having
to apply to the court for a clearer In-
lanimiilliiii nf n plauan In Anna Wilson's
will, which left us In doubt aa to whether
we could use I&.0Q0, half of tho value of

half of the present value. The cour,t ha
finally doclded that w can use tho
larger amount, and we hope In tho next
year td.hVve our little ifhllilrqn housed In
A thoroughly modern, up-to-date and con
venient home.
Home a Ideal.
"The chlldroit had. a, delightful summer,
they rovoted In the commodious grounds
surrounding Mm. Kimball's former 'homo;
the only time spent Indoors was, at night
or Inclement weather: thanks to tho care
and cleanliness ot our ma'tton, they have
been remarkably well. ! Thoy xhad their
usual feast and good time Christmas,
Trlmblo Bros, donated a beautiful troc,
as they have dono for a number of years.
Mr. Prcy Powell Impersonated Bantu.
Claus for them to their liuge dellghu he
has done this tor the last sixteen yearn,
ever since he was a small hoy In short
trousers; now he Is the father of n fam
ily, but' Is still faithful to his llttlo Croolio
children. Toys -were not as abundantly
donated as Usual, although Mrs. Arthur
Smith's children sent a generous supply.
Money Was drawn from tho pleasure fund
to fill the deficiency, so that Christmas
was as merry as usual.

Woman In tho abstract, and concrete'
too, has at last broken down the prece
dent which had 'been established In the
railway mall service In Omaha, and for
the first tlmo In the history or me De
partment n woman Is toeing employed.
When C H. Cherry was selected to
supervise the weighing of the malls In
thlsd'trlct hoiwas authorised to engage
a stenographer. In compliance with the
custom ani tho unwritten law ot the
office hero he selected a man. The man
didn't prove satisfactory. Then he se
lected another man, and tHo second man
somehow or other didn't fit Into the nlch
any better than the first. In despera
tion a conference of the railway mall
service officials here was called. The
ellglbk civil service list was Inspected
anl checked and re-checked. The ex
perience with tho two men was yet fresh
In tho mind of Mr. Cherry. He couldn't
bear tho thought of trying to break In
another man and then discovering his
error. The result was that finally and
deliberately and as a last resort a girl
was selected for tho Job. Blnco her se
lection there hasn't been a murmur from
the fourth floor ot the federal building
when the clerical force Is to tabulate
the weighing returns, and Mr. Cherry
smiles regularly ad he leaves tho build
ing by the back stairway. For even In
tho railway mall service tho tradition
ot masculinity which surrounds tho de
partment Is sacrod to the men, and the
Invasion of woman has been a distinct
shock to the veterans.
"Duo to tho unfairness of the general
contract which Is now In vogue between
architects and builders and owners, the
architect or civil engineer, as It may be.
holds tho contractor In the hollow of tils
hand." Thus spoke O. K. Nusbaum,
commissioner of tho Natlonol Association
of Builders' exchanges, before the local
exchange' at1 ihc rooms In the Barker
block at noon." "The contractor has ab-
solutcly no recourse, he must do aa the
a:hltect or engineer sees fit, and he'ls
oftent mcs fqreed to tear out and theh
reconstruct without additional compensa
tion, merely because the architect or en-,
glneor says. 'I don't llko It' This Is why
I am here today to ask your co-operation
In having tho present form of contract
repudiated and a new contract, which
will be fair to the oullder. architect and
owner alike, formed to supersede It"
Mr. Nusbaum related that he knew one
case ot a government contract In which
the contractor lost $150,000 nnd then went
bankrupt because the work he had done
did not strike the fancy of the engineer
In charge., and he was compelled to do It
all over again and for no apparent rea
son Ho told of several cases In which
smaller contractors were ruined because
ot the clause . in the contracts of today
which mako tho work satisfactory only
by assent ot architect.
He also complained of tho tactics of
, architects, who word thtlr plans am
biguously, and then force the contractor
to tear out and rebuild It he falls to In
terpret tho Plans In a manner .which
coincides with the architect's ldena. "I
jknow 'of,' cases," said Mr. Nusbaum,
"wncro mo architect araitca two sets o:
plans. Identical In wording, for two build
ings. On one. set he put one Interpreta
tion, on the other the opposite Interpreta
tion. The contractor, of course, put the
same Interpretation on both plans, which
did not satisfy the architect, and another
contractor went to tho wall because of
the arbitrary contract."
"We must get together to change the
present form of contract, because It is
unjust to the contractor and It Is so
dratted as to hold water In every state of
the union except Pennsylvania, Tour
support Is necessary. If all the builders
exchanges assist tho offlcem of the na
tional association In tins fight we are
bound to win."
Mr. Nusbaum will go from Omaha to
St. Paul, whero he wltt talk to the build
ers In that city. Ho came from Kansas
City to Omaha.
Two Eastern Girls
Want Cowboy Spouses
Two mow eastern girls have written
letters to the sheriffs office, asking that
they bo provided with -husbands. A pair
of young women who live In a suburb of
Philadelphia, prefer "nice looking, well
built cowboys," they say. According to
their letter, ono Is a blonde and the
other a brunette, Zl and 24 years old, and
both considered good looking. They ob
serve that they can offer "pure love" to
their prospectl'.c husbands, liut.no money.
