Dr. A. Greehberg, Jact Alberts- and' Jack Malashock will play the outergardens.

Attempts are being: made to secure several other players who will help bolster the married men's lineup; Maurice D. Micklin will pilot the single men's team, and members of his team are Dr. A. A. Steinberg Kobert Hooper; Nathan E. Green Lou Somberg, Moe Linsman, Jack W. Marer, Herbert Goldstein, William Levey, and Irvin Stalmaster.

OMAHA, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1925

President of Federation Sends Appeal to Subscribers Dear Sir:— I am writing this letter to you, because! want you to know of the condition'that exists in Omaha, which you will be able to remedy.

I wish you would read every word of this letter, as it is of great importance to you and the rest of our community.

The facts are that the Jewish Welfare Federation is in very bad financial straits, because we have not received the support from you and others that we had a right to expect.

Today, we are unable to issue checks to those who are dependent upon us—widows and children cannot receive their weekly allowance because we have no funds ip the bank to meet their demands. We borrowed monejf last month to tide us over, expecting that collections this month would help, but they have not come in. ; - Under the circumstances, I must ask for humanity's sake and in the name of charity to send your check ati once for the balance due to the Jewish Welfare Federation.

I trust that my appeal will not only meet with your approval but that you will respond nobly to this great'cause. " .Very truly yours, (Signed);" WM. L. HOLZMAN, President, Jewish Welfare Federation.

SUBSRIPTION PRICE, A YEAR, $2.50 ZIONISM GROWING IN RUSSIA, JEWISH COMMUNIST ASSERTS Riga, (J. T. A. Mail Service.)—"The Zionist flag has become the concentration point for the Jewish middle class in Soviet Russia." This statement is made by the well-known Jewish Communist Sudarsky, in an article which appeared in "Der Stern", the Yiddish Communist paper of Charkoff.

Sudarsky attempts to console his fellow Communists that the rapid development of Zionism in Russia is not due so much to love of Palestine as to antagonism toward the Soviet Government. He calls upon the Communists to take drastic measures against the spread of the Zionist movement.

I I Break Ground After Month's Stay Big Tents Will be Pulled Down Early Monday Morning SUNDAY WILL BE SPECIAL VISITORS' DAY Camp Morris will break ground Monday morning and the many boys who have been taking their vacations out in the open will again go back to their daily toils. Sunday afternoon will be visitors day and as usual many visitors are expecting to view the camp. Early Monday morning the four big tents will be taken down and •will be stored away for next year when it is planned that the camp will be twice as large and will be maintained for the summer.

During the entire time of operating the camp there has not been one serious case of illness and every boy has gained in weight. Every boy upon entering and leaving the camp was examined by Dr. I. Soifer, who has been at the camp constantly.

"The camp has been the talk of the town and many visitors, both Jew and non-Jew have pronounced Camp Morris Levy as one of the most sanitary camps in: the country," said Nathan E. Green, director. Even during the recent rains, the boys were not bothered, all of this because of the. wood floorings built on a foundation."

The Camp now boasts of a champion swimmer in Manny Silver, 14 year old youngster. Young Silver before entering the camp could swim but fifty feet but after careful practice advice, Silver can now swim the entire lake or a distance of one mile and a half. As a special attraction, Silver -will swim the lake Sunday afternoon for the many visitors.

Besides being in the open and enjoying the Mother Nature, the boys have been greatly benefited by the meals being served by Mrs. S. Nathan who Jias taken an active interest in the boys. and who . is constantly on the watch for better things for the boys. . .. .

After completing each full day of activities, the boys gather around the camp fire at evening, telling storios or singing their favorite songs until 9:30 when all lights must be out at camp.

Denver Society Invites Visitors to View Sanitarium If you are going West or Northwest this year, you will most certainly pass through Denver, the capital city of Colorado. It is the gateway to nearly all America's beautiful natural scenery, and is itself prettily situated at the foot of the Rockies.

Denver is the tourist's Mecca. To go West without passing thnragh Denver and Colorado is like touring; Europe without visiting Paris.

One point of great interest in Denver is the Sanatorium of the Jewish Consumptive Belief Society, the largest Jewish tuberculosis samtorium in the world, and one of the largest hospitals in America. Tbs Sanatorium—a miniature city with four hundred and fifty inhabitants, a library, post office, theatre, synagogue and newspaper—is a sight no one should miss.

The Jewish Consumptives' Relief Society extends a cordial invitation t$ all tourists to come and visit' the institution.

COUNCIL BLUFFS

States T"had the "opportunity ^to'meet the representatives of the Jewish population and to speak about the agreement which has been reached by the Polish government and the Jewish party in the Sejm. I can only repeat what I have already stated before. I consider the agreement as a very important fact which opens a new chapter in the Polish Jewish Telations.

"I am convinced that the results will be most satisfactory. The basis of good relations is mutual confidence.

"The press in general, and particularly, the Jewish press in America, can contribute substantially in this direction by explaining that such an important matter as the Polish Jewish agreement requires some time before it will yield the full results that we are expecting it to bring us." This statement was signed by the Minister and by Mr. Muhlstein, who acted as secretary to the Count on his visit to America. .

"On the fifUi day Jan Steen had. to take the garden truck to Chicago, though not without many misgivings-on- Selina's part, all of tfhieh were realized when he returned late next day with half the load still on Ms wagon and a sum of money representing exactly zero in profits. "' '-• ';• •Selina was standing in the kitchen doorway, Jan in the yard with the team. She turned her face toward the fields.

A- fine state of things, and she a widow: of a week!

High Prairie called at the DeJong farm on Sunday afternoon and was tpid that tlie- widow was over-in the wet west sixteen, poking about with the boy Dirk at her heels; ,'By Monday afternoon the parlor curtains of every High Prairie farmhouse that faced the Halsted road were agitated as though by a brisk wind between the hours of tjiree-and five, when the market wagons were to be seen' moving toward Chicago.

Dirk, capering in his excitement at the prospect of the trip before him, shook his head Impatiently.

"I don't know what you mean. Let's go, mother. Aren't we going now?

You said as s§an as the load was on."

"Oh, Sobig, you're Just exactly like your—" She stopped.

Selina turned the horses' heads ; toward the city^ "You'd be surprised, ;Jan,.fd,know of all the tilings you're going to trear M some day that you've 'never.heard of before." Still, when twenty years had passed and the Ford, the phonograph, the radio, and the rural mall. delivery had dumped the world at Jan's plodding feet he liked to tell of that,momentous day when Selina DeJong had driven off to market like a man with a wagon load of handscrubbed garden truck and the boy Dirt perched beside her on the seat If, then, you had been traveling the Halsted road, you would have seen a decrepit wagon, vegetable laden, driven by a too-thin woman, sallow, brighteyed, In a shapeless black dress, a battered-black felt hat "tSat looked like a man's old "fedora" and probably was. On the seat beside her you would have seen-a farm boy of nine or thereabouts—a brown freckle-faced lad in a comically '. home-made suit of clothes and a straw hat with a broken and flopping brim which he was forever jerking off only to have it set firmly on again by the woman who seemed to ft*r the. effects of the hot afternoon sun. on his close-cropped head. .

That was it. • "The whole thing's just a grand adventure," her father, Simeon Peake, had said. And now the sensations -of that day were repeating themselves. . Now, - as. then, she took stock. 'Youth was gone, but she had health, courage; a boy of nine; twentyfive - acres, of '. wornout farm . land; dwelling and outhouses" in a bad state of,repair; and a gay adventuresome spirit that was never to die, though it led her* into curious places and she often found, at-the end, only a trackless .waste from which she had to retrace her; steps painfully.

"How d'you do, Mrs. Tander Sijde!"

A prim reply to this salutation. Disapproval writ large on the farm-wife's flushed face.

and drank as they rode along, for there was no time to lose.

The boy had started out bravely enough in the heat of the day, sitting up very straight beside hts mother, calling, to the horses, shrieking and saving his arms at chickens that flew squawking across the road. Now he began to droop.

"Yes, I am, Mr. Boomsma."

"That ain't work for a woman, Mis' DeJong. You better stay home and let the men folks go."

Selina's men folks looked up at her —one with the asking eyes of a child, one with the trusting eyes of a dog.

"My men folks are going," answered Selina. But then, they had always thought her a little queer, so it didn't matter much.

She urged the horses on, refusing to confess to herself her dread of the destination which they were approaching. Lights now, in the houses along
