The neglected child is from , to
5 years OF age" DR.. Paul w. Emer-
son OF Boston has said, That is one
reason why he believes in day
nurseries.
The Omaha Day nursery at
Twenty-fourth and St. Marys Is a
year round charity. Passing there
any day one may see groups OF
neatly clad little tots playing in the
sand pile or swinging on the shady
lawn. Counting noses at the noon
day meal, one discovers that from
SO to IS children are being cared
for daily at this home.
Well Trained Children.
The place is a model of clean
illness with only three regular
workers in the large old residence.
Each child has his separate comb
on a hook bearing his name, just
like a sorority house. Separate
towels and separate bibs are used
for each child. So carefully trained
are the children that they keep their
bibs perfectly free from spots tor
an entire week. They say Thank
You" when kind Mrs. Dean gives
them their wholesome soup, bread
and Jelly sandwiches and pudding at
noon.
Glass of Jelly, Slogan.
The supply OF jelly which was do
mated by Omaha women last winter
is now practically exhausted. That
means plain bread and butter IN
stead of the jelly sandwiches which
are given only after a plain one has
been eaten.
A glass of jelly for the Day
nursery, when you are putting up
your own supply, is good slogan
to adopt!
DR.. Emerson who visited the
home, unexpectedly last May, says
it is the cleanest place of its kind he
has seen.
Mrs. Smith to Leave.
Mrs. William Archibald Smith,
who has been devoted to the inter
ests of the home, leaves soon for
California. Mrs. w. L. Selby will
take the place of Mrs. Smith in the
work. Every day finds either Mrs:
Smith or Mrs. Selby ION the job, y
with volunteer service.
A trained nurse has charge of the
children under 5. Her youngest
child. s months old, is the pet OF
the place. The discipline is some
thing of a marvel, and no physical
punishment is ever administered.
The children are granted freedom
and full opportunity for expressing

Former Onahan at
Monastery in
England.

Members OF Sidney Powell's FAM
lily in Omaha have received inter-
esting letters from him since he left
his home in New York for a visit in
London. A letter written several
weeks ago tells of his first visit to
Roman Catholic monastery:
Arrived at Ryde from Ports
mouth and took a tram to the es-
planade. where l had been told |
should have to fight with taxi and
cab drivers. | passed them all and
picked out the vehicle wanted, an
old landeau OF the Queen Victoria
vintage. black body with yellow
sides and doors. The driver sat on
a high box and l lounged back for
three-mile trip through lovely
hedges, oak trees and here and there
a thatched eottage. 1t was beauti-
full.
"The monk porter received and
turned me over to the guest master
who showed me to my austere but
pleasant room. Two quaint windows
looked out on the Drive, over the
walled-in monastery garden. to the
wooded hills of the beautiful island
My friend Frere Gray came to me
and we had nice chat. At 8 o'clock
the bell rang for supper. Father
Abbott preceded me into the dining
hall. and upon entering he poured
water on my hands from a silver
urn dried them on linen cloth
which was handed me.
"The abbott sat at table at the
end of the room all by himself.
Around the other three sides were
long tables for the 20 monks. My
table was all alone IN the center OF
everything. l stood there by my
self while they stood, chanted and
prayed. When they sat l sat also.
All through the meal not a word
was said, but up in the pulpit on our
side an old monk read out loud sect
lar French history in French.
After closing prayers we were al
lowed a half hour in which to walk
and talk. Church was held at 9 p. m.
and then I was shown to my room.
No one can talk from 9 p. m. till
y a. m.
Morning! beautiful beyond words!

butter and coffee. A stroll around
the monastery grounds under long
avenues of old oaks. past hedges and
out where can see all of the sound
and the shores of England.
".At o'clock the big celebration
OF the Sacred Heart took place and
many men and women came to
see the procession which took place
after the service in the church. The
French monks had made many large
designs on the walks of iris leaves
and petals OF different colored
flowers. In the procession the monks
walked around them, but the father
abbott and head priests walked over
them. Each monk carried long
candle and then, too, there was a
canopy with four urns and an in
cense swinger.
After this, tea in the refectory.

And auntie dear we sadly fear
Was far from having peace.
The florist and the minister,
The bridesmaids and the bride,
Were causing troubles great and
small,
Till auntie nearly cried.
Now auntie in the days of war
Led motor corps brigades
And worked so very hard each day
Directing all her aides.
She was a speedy driver,
The traffic rules she knew;
And when to left or right she turned
Her arm waved into view.
So when a-shopping she did go
To aid the worried bride
Her head she lost amidst the aisles
Which loomed so long and wide.
And now the town is laughing
At auntie, so we hear,
For in the store her arms shot out
The crowded aisles to clear.

Notes of the Game

Two hits out of three times at
bat by Murphy yesterday makes it
II out of his last II trips to the
plate. This is an average of .706,
and it should produce quite a
change in Franks mark in the next
official average.
Murphy made two fine stops and
throws to first that got the run
ners. Command, a fast man, was
the victim each time.
Badly" Aftermath made a one
handed pickup of Lizy's grounder
in the second inning which earned
the plaudits of the fans.
In the sixth inning each of Rock
Islands outfielders took care of a
fly ball. Bill Cole caught a long
drive to the vicinity of the club
house off Commands bat in the
fifth.
Robinson and Jenkins were the
only Bunnies to connect safely.
Robinson got a pair of clean blows.
Jenkins hit was a terrific smash
at Ambrose, which caromed off the
foul line

TWO new GRID
STARS BLOOM
ON HIGH TEAM
Hunter and White Astonish First
Nighters at Reservoir Park
Field.
BY FRIER TC0LLISTER-

The work of two dark horses at
the initial practice of the Rock Is
land high school football squad has
raised the Islanders hopes for an
other championship eleven about
100 per cent. Two speedy boys by
the name of White and Hunter
cavorted over the field in manner
to make the coach's eyes shine.
Neither of these men have ever
played under Rock Island colors
but their addition to the squad
should mean a great deal Both
men are small but fast, and from
first night conclusions should have
little trouble in making the half
back positions.
From last nights showing Hunter
seems to be the better open field
runner of the two, although White
shows class Hunter carries the
ball much like Duncan of 1920 fame
and it is hoped he will be able to
gain as much ground as last years
experience at a Missouri high
school.
White, although not as adept at
carrying the Datl, mas knack 1Or
booting the ball and will probably
draw the punting assignment. He
has had no high school football ex-
perience.
Although these men looked the
best at the first football workout of
the season yesterday afternoon, new
stars may spring up in the next
two weeks. There were 40 men out
in uniform yesterday.
All of the old men showed up
with improved form over last year
and many of the sideliners stated
that they expected another winning
team. The coach had the boys do
few simple stunts to start them on
the road to condition and stated
that he was more than satisfied
with the turnout
Manager Clark announced this
morning that the alumni game
would probably be played at Angus
tana instead of Douglas park. Al
Three-Eye league game is scheduled
for Sept. II SO that the high school
must secure another field.

setting forth that the Sox had turn
ed over three players to Moline at
the start of the season with under
standing that Chicago was to have
its pick of the Plowboy team at the

Iris Speaker is an expert sal

In the fall OF 1919 Speaker came
within an ace of winning his first

have been no Black Sox. But he
didn't.
He came close and that was due
to the fact he had Ray Caldwell on
