! Omaha’s No 9 o'clock Town Say Merry Wedding Guests Omaha's no 9-o’clock town: nor a 12:30, either! ia-ast It Isn't, now that the El)iott-Hoagland prenuptial parties pre on the calendar each day. At a conservative hour cabarets may stack their chairs on the tallies and economically dim their lights, orchestras may pack up their fiddles and saxo phones and silently creep into the night, hut the wedding parties go on. The dinner given by Mr. and Mrs. William Eatta of Tekamah Monday at the Brandeis restaurants, was so successful and the guests so reluctant to break up at 12:30 when the professional music makers departed, that Eoring Elliott, groom and honor guest mounted the dais and madly "heat the box," being a jazz pianist of note. * One of his ushers, Phillip Downs, took a banjo, another usher, Jabln Caldwell, manned the traps, while Wallace Shephard stood by for emergency work at the piano. _ This went on rather Indefinitely, and wholly merrily, the social scribe understands. -®he music was of such a superior nature that the guests claim they would be dancing to it yet had not a shrug, and a discreet cough from .lunn Muller reminded them that they had made Omaha a 2 o'clock town, und laid best let it stand at that. __ _ , Miss Nightingale to Be \ Presented.

Your Problems | Hetty: So many young girls long for a love that shall contain every c lement of strange romance and mys tery. The matter-of-fact friendship of 'the boys'' they've know for years holds foe them no interest, no lure. .Just plain, every-day John—why, there's nothing fascinating ahout John—you've always known John! You can have fun with him skating or at the church sociable or at college dance. But love's nnotlier tiling. John's good to his mother, of course, ills sister thinks he's the finest boy in the world—next to her own Jim. But when you marry him you assure yourself it must he someone ‘'dif ferent”—someone who will sweep you off you feet with his love-ntaking. Think twice before you laugh at John's inexperienced, shy efforts -to lie attentive to you. John wears well. Those who know him best love him best. Wliat do you know about that fas cinating man who was introduced to you by an acquaintance on the train and who lias been corresponding with you since. He says he fell in love with you at first sight aftd wants you to come to the city and marry him. But for all you actually know ahout him, he may he a married man. What assurance have you that his Interest in you Is not entirely self centered? Of course he muy he the one man to make you happy. But before al lowing yourself to lie swept away on a‘ wave of emotion, think what you are doing! Hove is just as much love when it first comes in the guise of friendship. There is every chance£or lasting hap piness in a union between tried and (rue friends. Such a marriage afford* surety of congenial tastes, pleasant companionship and sympathetic un derstanding. One might almost say a marriage cannot fail. Hove is first and foremost of the heart—yes. But to lead to a lastingly happy marriage your love must be OK'd by your good judgment. This is why it is marvelous, and wise as well as thrilling, to Tall in love with a man who has proved him self a friend. Do not despise the matter-of-fact and commonplace. Give Cupid a chance. He has a wonderful way of stealing into a heart and transform ing oil that is commonplace to the glory of true love. -*-— Movie at Jutes School.

At Marion's startled scream I fol lowed her glance and her shaking, pointing hand to the window, where she had gasped that she had seen a face looking in. But there was ab solutely nothing to l>e seen, and my suddenly accelerated pulse slowed down. "There is nothing there, dear." 1 said soothingly. "You must have seen the shadow of the tree outside." “Oh, no, Auntie Madge! Please be lieve me.” Her voice was a bit trem ulous, but save for that first childish scream. Marion was proving herself a true daughter of her poised mother. "It was a real face that I saw, with eyes that moved. Some one was watching us, I am sure, and when I turned on the light he got scared and jumped away." I noticed her use the pronoun. "Do you think the face was that of a man?” 1 asked quietly, for T thought that the quickest way to cure her of the delusion was to pre tend to take her assertions seriously. "I don't—know." she said slowly, plainly puzzled. "I said ‘he’ because— I guess—it looked a little more liken man. But it might have been a wo man. It was such a queer face. I can't think where I have seen one like It." "Suppose we look outside," I said, still in the firm belief that Marion's vivid imagination was responsible for her queer vision. She stared at me with eyes that were suddenly very like her mother's. "I think we ought to send Junior away first," she said soberly. For a second I felt absurdly guilty as if I had been convicted of neglect of my small son. Ever since the day Grace Draper smuggled our baby away from us, he has been zealously —and foolishly—guarded. I could see that Marlon thought I was most re miss in pursuing any investigation while Junior was in the room, and my heart went out to Gillian's daugh ter not only for her thoughtfulness but for her bravery—there had been no question of her going away. "Richard’s Mending!" Notwithstanding my absolute cer-l talnty that she was mistaken about the face at the window, the mere sug gestion of danger to Junior hastened my movements and I hustled my little lad out of my room and into his grandmother's, taking Marlon with me, and whispering a command to the little girl to stay with him. The look she gave me held rebellious pleading, but she was too well disci plined to make any verbal protest. Purposely I made my voice queru lous as I addressed my mother in-law: "Mother will you keep Junior In your room lor a little whik) until 1 get my room picked up? I want to put his train away, and things in order before I tackle the rest of Dicky's mending. " She was surrounded with dresses of evey vintage—never, by any pos sibility, does Mother Graham throw any article of dress away, and the look in her eyes as she answered me told tne that she was far away In a sartorial world of her own im agination “Eh? What?" she queried, then suddenly sitting upright, she spoke imperiously: “Richard's mending! What do you mean? Have you been doing that all afternoon?” "With Marion's help," I replied, gmiling at my flushed little assistant. “But you surely must be finished." she said rising. "Oh, no." I replied with more cheerfulness than X felt. "But thanks to Marion I might to be able to fin ish before midnight." Mother Graham is exceedingly try ing at times, tout her sense of justice is one of the strongest character istic, and she spoke with heat. Koorprints On the Hoof.

If she had finisher her sentence Junior's sharp little ears would have register ed the fact that she was going away, and we should have had a tearful scene. I waited for no further permission, but spoil hack to my room, trying In vain not to feel gleefully malicious over the way things had turned out for Dicky. He detested being dragged through shops, especially with his mother, but I had the secret con sciousness that in his own parlance he "had it coining" to him. Once inside my room I locked the door, and then going to the window at Which Marion had gazed with such terror, I raised it, and with my flashlight scrutinized the roof of the veranda which lay somewhat shelter ed beneath it, and from which some one could easily look into the room. Naturally I expected a zero result of my Inspection, but almost at once 1 felt the muscles along my spine quiver with a nervous shock.
