melting pot.
Italian, Syrian, Bohemian, Jewish,
Polish, Mexican and colored make
up the settlement's patronage.

hand in hand with Americanization,"
Miss Mary Anthony, superintendent,
emphasizes.
.Hundreds of little feet patter in

Wife, Just From
Sunny West, Here
Seeking Hubbv
Says Mate Disappeared With
Baby When III Health
Forced Her to Leave
Omaha.
Juanita Sage, fresh from sunny
California, pretty, brown-eyed, and
a hint of California's roses (natural)
in her checks, arrived at the police
station yesterday in search of her
husband, W. O. Sage, who. she
says, deserted her more than two
years ago, taking with him thtir
3-vear-old child.
Juanita and her relatives live at
Glcnwood, la., where the Sages
were married. They lived there
some time and then they came to
Omaha.
W. O. worked in Omaha, but his
wage was not large and, in spite of
the small baby, Juanita helped out
by working downtown. Finally the
young mother's health failed and
she was forced to go to relatives in
California to recuperate.
She said, with tears streaming
from her eyes, that her husband for
a time was faithful in writing, hut
finally grew negligent and didn t
write at all.
Now that she has recovered suf
ficiently to support herself and baby
she hopes to locate her husband, ob
tain the child and then free herself
by divorce.
Mrs. Sage left Omaha to con
tinue her search in Council Bluffs,
where she said her husband had
worked "recently.

Acres of Diamonds
" Dr. Russell H. Conwell has delivered his lecture, "Acres of
Diamonds," more than five thousand time's and in book form it has
been widely read. It is a wonderful story with a pointed moral and,
delivered under the force of his magnetic personality, leaves a last
ing impression on the hearer.
A man in the state of Pennsylvania became infatuated with dia
monds and obsessed with a desire for their possession. Mortgaging
his farm, he. went to South Africa in quest of a diamond mine. Failing
in his search, after innumerable hardships, he was forced to work,
his way home. Upon his arrival he was amazed at receiving an offer
of a. fabulous amount of money for his mortgaged fari. A thick
vein of coal black diamonds had been discovered on his farm and
that which he had traveled so far to find had all the time been right
under his feet, if he had but dug for it.
There are many Help Yourself Club members like the chap in Dr.
Conwell's lecture. What a great opportunity right here at home for
those who "dig in." Unlike the Pennsylvanian, no one is coming to
offer them the equivalent of one of the awards with a value running
into the thousands of dollars, but, like him, they can "dig in" and
secure one.
Some members have made a good start, but Well, let's forget
how foolish we have been. With the good start we made, there
is still ample opportunity to get back into line for an award if we but
determine to do our utmost. With the 50,000 Extra Vote Offer still
in effect, we can run up a big score of votes before the close of the
campaign and resume the place we should have held. -
Your "Acres of -Diamonds" are right at your door if you will
but "dig in." "
Great is the opportunity greatest for those who realize that
awards worth thousands of dollars are worth the hard work. Effort
will get Bee subscriptions. Bee subscriptions will get votes. Vote3
will get Help .Yourself Club Awards. Let's "dig in."
