Prof. David oConnor and his family, consisting
Of wife, two sons and two daughters. were on
the canal for oyer year. Prof. o'Connor was
superintendent of schools in Panama and his sons
were employed in the mechanical department. The
two daughters taught school. They were married
in Panama and shortly afterwards returned to
Nebraska with their parents and settled at Ran
doph, where the family now lives
Omaha families have contributed at least three
school teachers to the army of useful workers now
engaged in leading the Panamanians to the front.
They are Jessie Pontius, formerly of the Beals
school, whose mother resides at lilo South Twenty
eighth street; Edith Anderson, whose Omaha home
is at COS North Fory-frst street. and Helen Mason,
daughter of DIR. A. w. Mason, whose office is in
The Bee building. These young women have stuck
to their task without faltering and in letters home
express themselves quite happy and well placed in
their new field Of labor. The two first named had
teaching experience in the Omaha schools while
Miss Mason received her training at the University

Burmester Of Omaha. has been an officer of the

He was chosen for the job on the isthmus through

the greatest thing about this canal you are

with which every man, TO the least Of them, CO.

by this spirit. Nebraskans who have returned from
the isthmus express emphatic faith in the govern

number Of natives working on the big. ditch is
comparatively small. Naturally INDECENT SIS per

of all manual labor. The other is per cent are of
English, German, French, Spanish or Italian descent
and the majority of them speak several languages.
However they are not enthusiastic about this huge
trench being exeayated through the territory of
Panama, and crowds of poems will lounge for hours
in the vicinity of the workmen scornfully watching

Camper and Bortin were at times called to every
part Of the zone and experienced every unpleasant
ness. For weeks they camped in the jungle, labor
ing from dawn to dusk, shorn Of all luxuries and
sometimes thankful for bare necessities.
However, as Camper says, Uncle Sam wisely
provided for play well for labor. All work
ceases on Sunday. The forenoon is spent at church
and the afternoon is given over to entertainments
Of divers and sundry kinds including picnics to the
secluded haunts Of the jungle, boating excursions
and base ball games. These games attract the
largest crowds. for major league material is often
found in the lineups. and wandering outlaws are
gladly welcomed by the amateur managers. Games

and this adds to their natural zest for good music
and has resulted in very creditabe musical
organization.
When the rainy season comes the work of the
northerners is impeded by floods and sitting
humidity, say the Nebraska veterans, but so well
have the sanitation authorities COPIED with this
problem that today Panamals death rate is lower
than many Of the cities in the United States Upon
the arrival of the Americans in the cities on the
isthmus they found loathsome neglect Of the
simplest sanitary rules. The sewage system bred
disease, the streets we're rivers of mud and there
was an-aggravating attitude of indifference to be
overcome.
Streets were paved and entire cities were, in
instances, raised as much as eighteen inches above
their original levels Cleanliness was made COM
pulsory and stricter discipline and newer methods
wrought wonders among the people. These precau-
tons and careful regard for sanitary rules de-
stroyed the old fear that had existed since the
French abandoned work on the isthmus and proved
that the white man could live and work in Panama
with much immunity as on the plains OF the
west. Even in the camps in the jungles few con-
tagions occurred and malaria became less and less
a spectre of death as the work progressed.

Months before this advice was given it had been
needed and dozens of Nebraskans had made from
one to three trips to Central America and studied
the situation. Preparations now ineubating to
continue these studies at the exposition to be given
in San Francisco upon the completion Of the canal
