THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, MARCH 30 1917. Fashion Dictate Auto Moaei. Winds blow in from every port news of fashions which are the envy of every fair daughter of Eve. In Chicago, so the story goes, the fate of many fine old houses, mansions rich with the associations of bygone generations, is to be turned into shrines for the "dernier cris" in hats, coats and frocks. Just such trans formation occurred in Omaha the other day in a large old house on i Capitol avenue, where every kind ot new spring costume was displayed on living models. Such displays are of all-absorbing interest; they hold their spectators spellbound. Someone has compared the look to that on the faces of a Turkish throng when the prophet's sacred carpet is carried past in procession. One of the most noticeable of these garments for the spring of the year was a pongee top coat for motor wear. It was trimmed with an ef fective shade of heliotrope, which, by the way, is much in favor among mo torists. Miss Alice Duval is now seen frequently in a veiy "Frenchy" costume of purple, with which she wears purple goggles to match. Speaking of things to mater re minds us that travelers - returning from the east tell how feminine driv ers of new wonderfully colored cars wear elaborate automobile costumes of exactly the same shade. This be ing the case, a person who wishes to present a car to a fair damsel as a token of his affection will have to ex ercise extreme care in choosing the color of the car to harmonize with the complexion of his lady love. A bright red car presented to an auburn haired miss might be considered a de liberate insult and consequently stir up strife. ' Mis Regina Connell has among the many frocks which she will wear on her long trip to the east a new motor ing coat of citron colored chartreuse, made long and loose, with the popular bell effect. Such a top coat for use in the ever present autorrobile is an actual wardrobe necessity. un ami mornings miss neiene bix by, who is an inveteratj motorist, mav be seen in a becoming Norfolk jacket of leather in heliotrope shade. It is one of the nsttiest automobile costume adjuncts that anyone can boast and is immensely becoming to Its wearer., . , . .

The last re cital of the Junior Musical club this year will be given some time during the last of May at the hime of Mr, and Mrs. Harvey Milliken. Special Flower Mission Day. ' "Would you like a flower from the Flower mission," or "May I live you t spring flower?" was the question put by young society ' women this afternoon to 1,200 patients in all the hospitals in the city. . t i. v. - : : n iivuwi ui tiic mt-mot ammvci- sary of Miss Emma Hoagland, in whose memory the Flower mission was founded, the florists donated more generously than usual and Mrs. George Hoagland, who founded the mission in memory of her daughter who was a great lover of flowers and frequently visited, the hospitals tak ing flowers to the sick, purchased 1.200 tiny silk flags for the center of each bouquet, so that those who are shut in might not lose out on the patriotic wave.

KEEP PATRIOTISM ALI VEIN SCHOOLS Applaud Greets Speaker at Conoord Club Who Pleads for English in Schools. . FORGET ALIEN TRADITIONS We cannot keep alive the patriotic sentiments of this country if the tra ditions of the old world are perpetu ated as in the case of the Mockett law, which requires the teaching of foreign languages in our public schools. The English language is the language that must be taught in our schools. We should respect the foreigners who come to this country, but we should see that they do not keep alive the traditions of their na tive countries, said E. G. McGilton to members of the Omaha Concord club at a patriotic luncheon held in the Commercial club. He was greeted with applause and waving of flags. Critical Period. . Continuing, Mr. McGilton said: "In the midst of good feeling and ap parent security we should remember we are passing through a critical period,' We have not been doing our full duty. When Belgium was in vaded we should have registered a vigorous protest, and then our posi tion today would have been better. When the Lusitania was sunk I was convinced it was time for our nation to assert itself. It is now the duty of every patriotic citizen to stand by the president, and we should assume that what he is doing is for the best interests of the country." The speaker criticized the Board of Education for making American history in the high schools an elec tive rather than compulsory study. Norris Brown said: "Our country at this hour is in great peril. A sim ple obligation rests upon all of us and that is to assist the president de- tend-the flag when it is attacked. Let us all stand by our government and our president it is cnaractcrisiic oi tne Ameri can to look upon new events and new problems withvconfidence. If a man's heart and purpose are right he need not be ashamed to admira mistake. Americans are not backward in ac knowledging mistakes. We probably will be called on soon to solve new problems," said Judge Woodrough of the federal court.

SERVISS. A huge,, black-eyed, black-maned, hump-shouldered buffalo bull, crop ping a rich meadow in, the Yellow stone National park, came to the wooded edge of a pond where he saw an aged beaver, reposing for a few minutes from his labor upon a new dam. The buffalo stopped and leaned against a tree. There was an ominous cracking. "Look out!" cried the beaver. "Don't you see that I've cut that tree almost off? If you push it the way you are doing it will fall away from the dam, and you may get an. ugly fall yourself." . The buffalo made his apology, and added: "I am surprised that, at your age, you continue to build dams. - Why don't you make the keepers of the park build them for you, if you must have them? You ought to see the way they take care of us buffalo. No more hard seasons and no starving in the winter time. When the grass is scarce, or gone, 'they feed us good stuff, toot They make shelters for us, and treat us like princes, as we arc. Remarkable, isn t it, the way those two-legged creatures have changed. -"There was an old bull, the oldest in our herd he died last winter who said that the reason was because the god of the buffaloes had interfered for us. , "They killed many of us, but they had only sharp sticks and knives, and were not very numerous, and we were not much afraid of them, but after ward came another kind, carrying the lightning in their hands, and they grew so numerous and became so bloodthirsty that the race of the buf faloes was almost extermiated by them. v "Then, the old bull said, the god of the buffaloes, up in the mountains to ward the west, thundered and came down. "The bull said the sweetest grass he ever. ate grew among the countless bones of the god-smitten two-legs, and after that came the great change, and the persecution of our kind ceased, at. ' those who had been our enemies became our care-takers." "A very long and pretty story," said the beaver, showing his worn and aged teeth in a smile, "but was it your buffalo god who saved us, too? Our family was hunted to the. verge of extermination by the same enemies, who have now become our friends likewise. I'll tell you what I think about it. I believe that the god who helped us was neither a buffalo nor a beaver, but a man, a two-legs." "A two-legsl But why should he do that?" "Listen," said the beaver, with a mysterious air, standing up on his hind legs and putting his mouth close to the buffalo s big, hairy head. "I am a very old beaver you see that. Many's the dam I have built, many' the island house I have plastered, ce menting its underwater approaches so that not a drop ever got in, and many's the two-legs whose talk I have ROBT.

"Well, once, long, long ago, the chief of the two-legs came by one of my dams, with some of his people. I knew -him for the chief because of what he did, and of the way they obeyed him. He was white-haired like your buffalo from the mountains, but he was no. bigger than his com panions. Yet whatever he said do, they did it. While he stood by the dam he said: "Remember, it is forbidden from henceforth to trap or kill a beaver. The beaver is a very wise and indus trious animal. There are many things to be learned from him. Watch him and study his ways, but whoever kills a beaver, or takes his fur, will be fined." ' "What is that?" asked the buffalo. "Some very terrible punishment, you may be sure," replied th,e aged bea ver, "for from that time we have been safe and unmolested. These keepers who do so many things for us were sent by the chief of the two-legs, I am sure of it I" "But," said the buffalo, "why did the chief interfere?" , . , : "Listen again," returned the aged beaver, .stretching up still higher on his trembling limbs, "those two-legs are very strange creatures. There is something about them that I cannot understand. But I have studied them long and deeply, and this I have found out:. Although they may de stroy any animal that they choose they wilt not do it after that animal has become what they call a rarity. That seems to mean that after his kind has been nearly exterminated, which is the case with us and you. We are rarities, and so are safe." Are You InsolubleGrit Like This Into and UnderYour Gums?
