Another Interesting Angle Comes to Light In Society Sensation. Ronald L. Paterson, whose wife', Blanche E. Paterson, secured a di vorce from him in district court last Tuesday? is out of the city. At the office of the Nebraska Fuel Co., it was stated that neither he nor his brother, Kenneth, are with the com pany any longer. Charles M. Rey nolds, vice president and treasurer of the Nebraska Fuel Co.,' filed suit against Ronald Paterson last week in district eourt for $10,500, which he says is due on notes given by Mr. Paterson. An order was granted restraining Mr. Paterson from disposing of property, pend ing settlement of these notes. Mrs. Blanche Paterson is living at 425 North Forty-first street, where she and her husband lived right after they were married in 1908. "I shall try to live a wise, calm life and accept the past as it is," she said. "I did everything I could even to going to the mining camp in Colorado where .1 thought the hard work and primitive life might make out married life what it should be. I did everything I could. Now Charles C. Wearne was sued for separate maintenance in, district court yesterday by his wife, Mabel L. Wearne. Mr. Wearne is a brother of Dr. Frederick J. Wearne, whose wife, Mary Wearne, was granted a di vorce in the district court two weeks ago. . i Mrs. Mabel Wearne alleges that her husband is addicted to the use of liquor to such an extent that he has xlost his sense of kindness and humanity. She says he has been in toxicated almost continuously and that his treatment of her has been so cruel that she is sick and nervous and the doctor has told her she must take a trip to California. They were married in June, 1917, and live at 116 Fourth avenue, Car ter lake club grounds. . She says Mr. Wearne owns one half interest in Wearne Bros, foun dry, 1409 Jackson street, worth from $50,000 . to $75,000, that he owns $1,350 worth of Liberty bonds and draws from $250 to $300 a month as salary at the foundry. , She asks the cqurt to give her a decree of separate maintenance, $175 a month alimony and $150 to defray her railroad fare from here to Cali fornia. She also asks for an order of court restraining her husband from disposing of his property or placing it beyond reach. j Mrs. Frederick Wearne also stated in her divorce petition that she was compelled to go to. Cali fornia because of Dr. Wearne's cruel treatment The Warehouse Shortage Has Kept Firms From Omaha, Says J. M. Gflan 4 A great shortage of warehouses in Omaha has prevented a. score f large industrial concerns from locat ing here during the past year, ac cording to J. M. Gillan of the Cham ber of Commerce industrial bureau.

Fitzmorris Explains Benefits of Savings Ac counts to Working Classes. - T. J. Fitzmorris and Thomas Falconer, city commissioner, spoke to the Omaha Teachers' Forum at the Chamber of Commerce, yester day noon. The teachers first listened to James A. Emery, genera! counsel of the National Association of Manu facturers', in the main dining room, and then went to a parlor room to hold their own meeting. Mr. Fitzmorris gave an interesting account of the history of savings and loan associations, from the establish' ment ot the tirst organization in Philadelphia, to the present-day strength. ' . "There are now In the United- States 7,500 associations, with as sets of $2,000,000,000, representing the savings of 4,000,000 members, he said. "Of this number, Nebras ka has 74 associations, 110.000 mem bers and assets of '65,768,000, at the beginning of the fiscal year, last July. Eight associations in Omaha last July reported assets totaling 41,257,000, or 60 per cent of the state's total. The first association started in this state was at North Platte," 1876; second at Grand Island, 1880, and the third in Omaha, 1883. The federal census of Omaha, 1900, showed that only 25.9 per cent of the people were home-owners. In the succeeding 10' years this percentage was increased to 39.8. I am confident that the next federal census will show that 50 per cent or more of Omahans are home owners." Mr. Falconer, superintendent of the city park department, told the teachers of the practical benefits ot the supervised playgrounds, and the community centers, which are main tained in 20 school buildings by his department , J. H. Beveridge, superintendent of schools, spoke to the teachers on the constitutional convention and its relation to the public schools., Use Bee Want Ads for results.

Mr. King was on IIIS WBV WC3L. t . f Hi c I shall accept calmly what fate has sent" Ronald Paterson did not appear in District Judge Wakeley's court last Tuesday to contest his wife's divorce suit. Continued efforts to keep the di vorce case secret failed when the news leaked out Friday. When the sui was filed, October 6, 1919, no paper had the story. The files were withdrawn by Viggo LyTgby and Baldrige & Saxton, attorneys for Mrs. Paterson, and the entry on the daily record in the clerk or the district court's office was made as "Peterson against Peterson," this being a mistake according to the clerk of the district court Some thing Here's Absolutely NewF MONDA Y-TUESDA Y- WEDNESDAY A 3-Day -Sailed To Clean Ud All the in Every Department There is SOMETHING in this sale THAT EVERYBODY NEEDS.
