I ' ^ -----' Your r Problems Dear Miss Allen: So many have had good advice from you, so 1 thought 1 would come. So many are getting their -hair bobbed and I want to know how long it will be in style. I have long and thick hair and have come to you to see what you would tell nie about having my hair bobbed. How long will it be before 1 can fix it tip and how should I put it up while it is growing out. Is it popular for a girl of 18 to have her hair bobbed? v BLUE EYES. Bobbed hair is very becoming to every girl, no matter what her age may be. It is very easy to care for and for advice, I should say there is no advice needed. In a matter of this kind, please yourself. They say hair grows about five or seven inches a year, so you may figure out for yourself how long your hair wi11 be growing in again if you bob it. While it is growing in curl it about your face and wear a net to hold in the stray ringlets?. Then you will look neat. As for the length of time this bobbed hair style will lost, my dear, that I cannot say. Fashion is a whim , sical jade, you know, and changes with tlie wind. But bobbed hair is easily cared for and so comfortable that I should think the style would last, blit no one knows. Dear Miss Allen: I have something to say. £ am married and we don't get along very well. I have been married for a few years, hut we have not had any children, and besides, I am in love with another man. We used to like each other before I mar ried my husband, but I thought if I was married that I would forget him. But I can't forget him, and he says it is the same with him. Whenever he goes some place he's got me on his mind. Do you think we will ever marry each other? He said he would not vaturv anyone else unless 1 mar i led him. Please answer the questions. WORRIED. You are a very foolish woman, in deed, to be so disloyal to the man you took as your husband. Be wise before it is too late, put this other man out of your mind forever, take an interest in your home and a greater interest than ever before in your husband and you will see how ADVERTISEMENT.

Of course, if you had children you would be happier, but as long as a childless home has been your fate, face it bravely; give the man you married double affection, the affection you should have for hint ae your hus band and the affection you would give a son, if vou had one. Take my ad vice and you will be happy, there is no other way. Cora: A successful and brilliant man once told me that charm i* nothing more or less than grace. A gracious manner, a gracious mind reaching out in interest itself in the thoughts of others, a low. gracious voice and a graceful bearing—given these the man to whom I refer in sisted that no woman could fail to be charming. Charm is not a mysterious com pound of magnetism and beauty and lure. It Is the product of a-gracious mind—and a friendly spirit. For un less grace is a thing of the heart and soul as well as the body it may fail to produce the charm which wins ad miration, friendship and love in a fine crescendo of reward. It is not because you carry your head well or swing youf shoulders beautifully that you will express real charm. Graceful externals may bring you-da miration. Physical grace will attract and even compel the eye. It cannot reach the heart. But a gracious spirit must be a friendly spirit. And a ttuly friendly spirit cannot be a self-conscious one. Nebraska Women Are Urged , to Go to Enforcement - Convention "Enforce the law!" will be the com mand to ring forth from the con vention of American women to be held April 10 and 11 In Washington, D.

Lincoln, in addressing the political and social science depart ment of the Omaha Woman's club yesterday afternoon. "Four, fivw, and sir times as many persons in proportion to the population are kill ed by accident in America every year as are killed In the various European countries." “This is partly due to our charac teristic American harry, continued Dr. Williams. "But it is partly due,” she said, "to the fact that unskilled labor, which is used in many of the hazadrous occupations, is cheap, largely foreign-ttprn, and until the re cent movements for workmen's com pensation, has had insufficient means of getting recompense for injuries suffered. Industrial casualties reported to the slate labor boards amount to 2.").000 fatal s.ccidents yearly,'' said Dr. Wil liams. "Specialists believe that this is only a part of those which actual ly take place, as many are never re ported. Seven hundred thousand non fatal accidents requiring from four days to one year absence from work are reported annually. "Before the passage of the Work men's Compensation acts in Nebras ka and elsewhere," continued Dr. Williams, "an injured workman had no remedy but to sue for damages. This required a lawyer, and ns the lawyer knew he would set nothing If he lost the case, he generally asked a high fee in case he succeeded. Be sides the courts created interpreta tions of the law which made it very hard for the plaintiff. The com pensation acts take the matter out of the courts, so that a man is now en titled to compensation if he makes a peitlon to the state lal*>r board and gets it Investigated and approved by an official of that body. Furthermore the compensation acts have encour aged'many employers to safeguard their machinery and start 'saftey first' campaigns among their em ployes, with the result of astoundins decreases in the number of accidents in plants where the matter has been taken in this spirit." Education Group Oppose “Equal Rights’’ Bill Opposition of the Women's club to the "blanket" or "equal rights" amendment was voiced by the educa tion department of the Omaha Woman's club yesterday afternoon in a recommendation to the club di rectory pass a resolution urging the death of the amendment. This action followed an address by Mrs. O. A. Nickum %>n the present status of bill* of special interest to organized women, in which alia aummed up the reasons why club worn* oppose the amendment. This measure, variously known as the "blanket amendment," the "equal rights amendment.” and the "Lucretla Mott amendment," is worded as fol lows: "Men and women shall have equal rights throughout the United States and all plates subject to its jurisdiction.” The amendment is supported by the woman's party but opposed by all other women's organizations on the ground that It might render uncon stitutional the maximum day law, the minimum wage law, the Sheppard Towner maternity bill and other legislation designed for the protection of women in industry. The women's labor unions are fighting tt vigor ously, and practically every other woman's organization with the one exception jmted above has declared conclusively against It. Following Mrs. Nlckum’s sugges tion, the education department also recommended to the club directory that it approve the education bill creating a federal department of edu cation with a minister on the cabinet. Senator Walsh was rapped for his "assault on Yellowstone park” in a bill calling for a reservoir at Yel lowstone lake to be used for irriga tion purposes, and the department recommended to the club directory that It pass a resolution urging the death of this measure.

If I had failed to see the panic which was shaking the driver of the car in which I was on my way to meet Alfred Durkee. That he feared pursuit wag evident In the nervous watch he kept upon the traffic and his continual quick glances over his shoulder at the cars behind .him. His muttered remark that he hoped the man I was to meet was already at the corner showed Ills re luctance to stop his car for any ap preciable length of time and without knowing the reason for his fear I toqk prompt measures to allay It. "I shall know In an instant if he Isn’t there,” I said, "and In fact I don’t think he possibly can have reached here yet, so why not drive around for a few minutes?” "Good idea,” he commented, biting the words short. “Which side of the street is the man?” “South.” “Then I’ll just clip over around Columbus Circle and back—only way they’ll let you turn here—then if he isn’t there we’ll take anther run through the park.’’ He threaded the mazes of Columbus Circle traffic deftly and drove slowly along the south side of Fifty-ninth street until I assured him that Alfred was nowhere to be seen. Then he Swung his car into the park and p a few minutes drew to the curb * on a part of the road which was higher than the rest of the boulevard. He stopped the car, keeping the engine running, however, and swung himself to the edge of the seat so that he could keep an eye on the cars coming in either direction. A Wave of Relief. "Might as well stay here as keep running around in circles,” he vol unteered, and I guessed that the fear which was obessing him was loosen ing his tongue. But I resolved to ask no questions. If I read him aright he would soon tell me the reason for his unmistakable panic. “Suppose you think it’s queer It changed cars.” he began tentatively with a side glance at me. "I suppose you had a good reason for doing so,” I returned quietly. ' I'll tell the world I did,” he ex ploded. and then as If ashamed of his outburst lie added quickly, “but don’t get uneasy, lady. I’ll get you back to Mrs. Bird s all right, ecendf I have to get somebody else to do it. There's nobody after you. It s me they're gunning for. ' A wave of selfish relief swept over :ne, of which I was ashamed the next j second. But I had been 'so sure his bizarre actions had been caused by the detective or his agents who were trailing the movements of the Harrison children that I had been nearly panic-stricken myself. It took me several seconds to pull my self together sufficiently to make a ' sympathetic inquiry of the youth. "Do you mean you're in any per , sonal danger?" I asked. "Depends on how good a sleuth is1 the1 bird that saw roe," he returned his eyes nervously darting back and forth on the park boulevard. "He’s a guy we sent over the road once, and I 'had to pal around with him and get the goods on him, “Of course he thought I double crossed him, and he swore he’d do me up. I thought he was still up the river—but he's managed to get out, and Is driving a taxi—phony papers, I suppose—and I lamped him just as I was turning the corAer after I ict you out and he saw me, too. “You Were Brave.” “Luckily he couldn’t turn there, liad to go ‘all the way around the block, and you can bet by the time he got back to that corner I was tilocks away and still going. I head with a different overcoat and hat. I got a look at his license plate and spilled it to my pal in the garage. He's in a position to set things go ing so my old friend will meet some interesting doings in a daj* or two. but just now that taxi lad is about as wholesome for me as a poison snake on my trail would be. Of course he's lost the scent now'Siut cruising around the way he is, we re likely to run into him anywhere, and I’ll be just as glad when we re through this stunt and headed back to the country again." "Yon were brave to come back to that corner after me." I said. "What else would I do?"*he de manded. wide-eyed. "That's Mrs. Bird's job. I'd rather meet the other guy in the dark with my hands tied behind me than fall down on a job for her." His eyes and voice were filled with a loyalty which one would never sus pect from his rather unprepossessing ext-drior. I think he suspected both my admiration and my astonishment for he scowled and turning his back upon me, threw in his clutch. “Guess that guy you're going to meet ougjit to be on Fifty-ninth by now," he said.

The chief enemy of teeth Film is the teeth's great enemy —that viscous film you feeL No ordinary tooth paste effectively combats it. Much of it clings and stays. Soon the film discolors, forming dingy coats. Then teeth remain unsightly and unclean. Film also holds food substance which ferments and forma acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by milliona in it. They, wjth tar tar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Very few people escaped such troubles in the old ways of teCth cleaning.
