some people would have eastern capitalists
believe. | think that such an article as Mr..
Halls is inspired by q thirst for notoriety-
a failing that some preachers have. SO far
as losing money in real estate Is concerned,
1t can be lost there the same as in any other
venture IL not judiciously placed. Money
mas been lost In mIuing, but that Is no indt-
cation that none is made. The same applies
to real estate. 1t Is the basis Of all wealth,
and Omaha realty never was In better shape
than now, although capital Is naturally
timid all over the country during the inan-
cial depression. There Is always an active
demand for good property and plenty of ten.

the supply for modern houses to rent. MIR.
Halls article Is the verlest rot.

We found turkey in very small numbers,

when goose, stuffed with marrows,

We're tiny flower markets.

Services In the Churches.

A very long time ago one of the popes
designated three churches in Rome for the
mass. namely, Santa Maria Maggiore, for
the night service or midnight mass; Santa
Ashauase for the morning or early mass and
st. Peters for the day service or high mass,
though now nearly all the Catholic churches
celebrate the three masses. IL is soon found
that all Of Christmas, or neaaly all, in Rome
Is celebrated in connection with the
churches. 1t is of services, therefore, /
write. For the midnight mass, of course,
one goes TO Santa MaggiOre, and anticipating
the crowds, goes early, that Is AT 10 30. An
the churches were crowded, but none TO
equal this immense pile-the second church
in size in Rome, ms it is in age. Hundreds
and hundreds came and went, being unable
TO find even standing room, One is told
there is not much religion in Rome now, and
then wonders why all these people are so
anxious To enter here. II is found that this
church, along with It's other marked fea-
lures, such as size, richness, etc, isnoted for
its superior instrumental aud vocal music.
IL was in this church last August
where we heard 200 OF the finest
male singers of Rome at the fetes Of the
