LACK OF MATERIAL BEING FELT
Miss Grace Zerbaugh of Paris,
France, general secretary of the
British-American Young Women'e
Christian association In that city,
hat arrtred in Council Bluffs, to be
with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C.
Zorbaugh, on their golden weddlnf
anniversary. Miss Zorbaugh Is In
active charge of the association relief
work in Paris and plans to return
October 1. She landed at New York,
the latter part of July and has spent
the intervening time In the east, con
ferring with American Relief Clear
ing House officials, through which
agency relief supplies are sent to
Europe.
Miss Zorbaugh emphasizes the pit
iful lack of the wherewithal for re
lief work. "If only American women
would realize how much use we could
put to articles which they discard,
surely they would exert themselves
to forward these things to us," she
exclaimed.
Vs Old tiloves.
"Old kid gloves, of wnich there an
surely thousands of pairs In this city, we
patch togethir and make wind-proof
vests for military aviators and automo
bile drivers. Dlocarded auto curtains
make excellent capes for rainy weather
and the isinglass is made into eye pro
testors. We need many things, but espe
cially surgeons' game and wool yarn.
"The association maintains workrooms
in Far Is (or destitute French and Bel
gian women, paying them 1 franc a day
for making underwear, shirts, warm gar
gents and sewing on mattress material.
We try to furnish at least one mattress
for each needy family, for beds are out
of the question.
"Sine August 1, 1914, when the asso
ciation took up the relief work, it has
established a free, flrst-ald home nursing
and medical massage department through
which 4C0 women have been fitted for
service as volunteer nurses. A bandage
department, from which 50.000 surgical
dressings have been sent to the front,
the furnishing of wards in the Amer
ican ambulance. Is also work of the asso
ciation. Free classes In Eng.Uh for Bel
gian refugees, a form of moral relief
for enforced Idleness, have been estab
lished and the furnishing of absorbent
paper serviettes, taking the place of
towels and handkerchiefs to soldiers In
the trenches, 1b another relief measure."
American Women In Work. ,
The uchess of Talleyrand, Miss Abby ,
Morrison; Mrs. KIdrlge and Miss Ren
lett of New York and Miss Henrietta

nent Americans who are active In relief
work at the association headquarters,
according to Miss Zorbaugh. . .
Miss Zorbaugh la a former American
newspaper woman andn now edits "The

Beginning with Sunday night,' August
29, performance at the Boyd "How"Wlld
Animals Live," a collection of marvelous
motion pictures of animals from Jungles,
forest and field, taken In all part of the
world, will be on view.
The wonderful possibilities of the mo
tion picture camera for the purpose of
natural history study are revealed In
these pictures.
John W. Ruskin, a member of the
various expeditions sent Into nil parts
of the earth to secure these wild ani
mal views, tells of the many Interesting
and unique methods resorted to secure
these remarkable pictures.
In the far north you wilt sea polar
bears swimming In the Arctic waters,
while' on the lee flda ei disport them
selves, not In the way they do in aquar
turn tanks, but as Uity tio in the open.
One of the most Interesting and thrill
ing pictures is that of a leopard maklnv
a flying leap upon a Jungle fowl, which
Is sitting on Its nest The habits of this
treacherous animal are very clearly
shown as he tortures the Jungle fowl.
After racing and rushing up and down
the hill with It the leopard finally rolls
over exhausted and drops the fowl. Sud
denly tha leopard springs to his feet, ap
proaches the top of the hill, arching his
back and tail and is ready to make a
spring. The clinking of the camera has
attracted his attention, and wore It not
for the fact the operators had killed tha
smell of their bodies they would have
never returned to civilisation.
There are hundreds of different sub
verts shown In the two hour that It
takes to run off tha five reels and every
one of them Is Interesting, novel and adit
cational. You will learn mora about ani
mal life in their native baunts In the
two hours than you could learn by read
ing books of natural history for a solid
month. In the words of tha reviewer of
the Boston Transcript who wrote: "I oama
to the theater expecting to be bored and
to remain he If an hour, but X stayed
through the whole performance and wm
very sorrj when tt ended."

at 1902 North Twenty-sixth street Fri
day night a short, stocky negro held him
up at the point of a revolver and took

holdup was taking plae and In turn was
covered by the weapon and requested -t

started to run, when the negro opened
fire, but fortunately none of the shots
struck her.
A man answering the same description
attempted to hold up J. Brick. 2203 North

of the weapon, but the negro finally

Rumor Bricklayers
in Omaha May Strike
for Five-Cent Raise
The bricklayers of Omaha are still hag
gling tar their raise of 6 cents an hour
in wges, and since the meeting they
held Tuesday evening it is persistently
rumored that they have decided to strike

The bricklayers themselves are not
talkative In the matter.
Early In the season the bricklayers
were asking for some concessions alon?
with the other allied building trades. The
contractors held a big meeting at the
Commercial club one day and decided to
grant none of the concessions askett
Among them was the recognition of the
demands of the Allied Building Trades
Conference, which conference wanted the
building and hoisting engineers recog
nized as union men and paid union
wages.
When the contractors at that time re
fused to yltld the whole matter was ap
parently dropped for the time.
While September 1 is considered a queer
time of year for bricklayers to be strik
ing and asking Increases, It is said that
they expert a late fall and look for work
in meir line to continue well into
winter.
