Omaha Woman Feels RESPONSE
BILE for Any Girl Under
Her Roof
BY MABEL ABBOTT

Omaha, tNeb, May 2S.--Dr. Jennie
Callfas, Omaha physician, has solved
the servant problem!
Proof3 she had only three maids
in IA years, and each. on leaving,
has brought her another as faithful
Dr. ,Cal.fas says her solution is
nothing newer or more startling than
the Golden Rule, but some OF her
friends say there is nothing in the
Golden Rule about giving your Swe-
dish servant-girl wedding in your
own beautiful drawing room, and
waiting on her and her Swedish
friends yourself; and that DR.. Callfas
is setting an alarming precedent.
1a6 Three Weddings
DR.. CaIfas' "jewel' was Ellen Sven
son, who stayed with her five years.
When Ellen left, DR.. Callfas gave her
wedding complete in every detail
Of flowers, candles, lovely rooms and
cleaning supper table; and DR.. Call
fas and her friends were the SER
vitors. Ellen introduced Huldah
Swanson, who took care of the Call,
fas home for four years and then
left via the drawing room and the
roses and candles. Huldah brought
Ellen Carlson, five years ago. And
on April 23, Ellen Carlson married
Henning Gottfried Chart, young
swedish house painter, in the tradi-
tional surroundings.
The Callfas maid has room, as
comfortable and pretty as any in the
house; she has her own bathroom;
the basement is fitted with labor
saving cOntrivances; and off the din
ing-room there is pretty sitting
room for her very own, where she
can receive guests.
Prefers Unframed Girl
She has Thursday and Sunday af-
ternoon off and a two weeks vavca-
tion on full pay each year.
Il feel that | am responsible for
any girl under my roof" says DR..
Callfas. 81 prefer an unframed SWe-
dish girl. teach her not only
American methods of housekeeping
but usually the English language. !!
also teach her to be careful about
her friends and her conduct. | let
her understand that | hope she will
marry some day, and that |. give her
nice wedding when she does, but
that | don't want her to make a mis-
take. keep an eye on the young
men who come to see her,<and warn
her against those that do not seem
desirable.
Anna Caught Bouquet
81 also talk to her about saving
her money; and to make this easier,
I give her her wages in two checks,
a little one to live on and big one
to save. Ellen and her young man
have been saving for years and they
have enough to buy a home"
The Calfas home has IA rooms
and it is kept immaculate. Dther
housewives have tried to steal her
well-trained maids One offered FL
len substantial advance. Ellen
tossed her head and went straight
to her mistress with the story. "Not
for s25 a week would go.' she
cried. "Here ! have home.' e."
Ellen has trained her successor,
Anna Johnson, in the ways of the
Uallfas household and it was Anna
who caught the bridal bouquet.
