CONDUCTS DAILY CLASSES BY MELLIFICJA July 18. The Omaha, or more properly, Ne braska colony in Chicago and their doings are always of interest to the home folk, whom this time I will re gale with news of the achievements of Miss Helen Morton, the young Lake Forest sculptress and a mem ber of the J. Sterling Morton family of Nebraska City. Miss Morton has recently been making a bust of Mrs. Austin Niblack, who, it will be remerbered, is the second daughter of the Edward udahys, Miss Helen, formerly resi- ents of Omaha. Mrs. Niblack is a tist, with her Titian hair, exquisite coloring and finely chiseled features. The Cudahy and Morton families are related through the marriage of Miss Jean Morton and Mr. Joseph Cudahy. Aside from her own work, the young sculptress has two morning classes a! week in modeling for chil dren between the ages of 8 and 12, and two afternoon classes for well known society matrons of the fash ionable Chicago suburb. The Morton garage has been converted into a studio for this purpose. Miss Morton is successful with por trait busts, but prefers to depict ani mals. A bronze likeness of her Rus sian wolfhound, Pavlova, has taken prizes and gone the rounds of ex hibits. - At the Country Club.
