QUMMERING in Omaha it becom
ing very nonular. have vou no-
ticed? It's really awfully nice
. to have all one's friend in town, es
pecially the younger girls, for they
do briehten ud the clubs and the din
ner dances this year and are more de
lightful than ever before. Aren't tne
summer frocks dainty? Just find
comfortable wicker chair m some se-
eluded spot on the club veranda and
watch the fashion parade go by.
Such smart sown in ginghams and
lawns, with oows of the same ma
terial, poised like Huge butterflies at
the waist.- The summery white net
gowns with their wide sashes ot pink
and blue are attractive and the darker
presses in silk and satin are the last
word in chicness. The military capes
one sees on chilly, evenings ,are very
alluring. Mrs. Charles T. Kountze
has such a pretty one, and Mrs. How
ard Baldridge looks especially Stun
ning in hers. Mrs, A. V. Kinsler and
Mrs. Louis Clarke; also favor the
graceful cape. ,,
t.AIiss Florence Rahm has a charm
ing guest, Miss Sophia Assman'of St.
Louis, and, numbers of mid-summer
affair are being planned for her. Miss
Rahm entertained a few friends at
luncheon at the County club for Miss
Assman Saturday, when the table was
so attractive with its basket of gar
den flowers.

alao paytnt all hla own axpanaea. Ba

The plump little person who served
me my equally plump baked apple in
the Community House at Chillicothe,
O., told me that her husband was a
private in the army.
"And where is he stationed '" I
asked.
"Right here at Camp Sherman,"
she demurely answered.
"Oh, indeed. And are you permit
ted to see him much?"
"Certainly," she replied. "He can
come to my room every evening
between eight and ten, and can spend
two nights a week with me."
"Is that so? And where is your
room?"
"Why, right over there in the Y. W.
C A. building." .
"Excuse me, my child," I said, "but
how long have you been married?"
"Since last June," she replied.
"How many lumps of sugar please? '
"No sugar," said I, "I like the taste
of what I am drinking, and sua
neutralizes the taste. Are any o!hev
of the girls here married to coi
diers?" "Why, we all are!" smiled back the
plump little body. "We are all war
brides. There are only four g'rls in
this building who are not married tu
soldiers."
And that is why I went to see the
local representative of the War Camp
Community Service, and learned from
him that five hundred wives of youn
soldiers are being employed in ana
adjacent to Camp Sherman at Chilli
cothe. I cast my eye about on the
young women who check the coats,
answer the telephones, wait on table
and sell the goods in the Post Ex
changes and I asked more questions,
Takes No Chances.
It seems that the government is
taking no chances of losing perfectly
good soldiers through debauchery
and bad habits indulged in during
their leisure hours. The War Camp
Community Serv'ce was organized
under the Commissions on Training
Camp Activities of the War and Navy
departments to throw helpful influen
ces about our boys, and to steer them
straight in their pleasures as well as
their duties. The above is one of the
many ways in which War Camp Com
munity Service is doing this, and the
thing is working well So mucmso
that I am sure quite a percentage of
our young soldiers are leading clean
er lives in the army than they did at
home.
Chillicothe was no "spotless town."
It was like the average small city
Then suddenly it bustled and whirled
with the activity of building a huge
camp for many thousands of men
receiving those men and making a
profit out of the job. Public spirit
in Chillicothe was neither low nor
high. It was average; which gem
erally means that what , is the bust
ness of the United States government
is not the affair of the local dry goods
merchant or druggist
However, along came a couple of
men, itrangers to Lhiui.ot-.e, and
proceeded to get into its good graces
and to organize it These two men
were L. H. Weir and W. C, Miller,
hired and sent there by War Camp
Community Service and they knew
how to do it They enlisted the sup
port of the Red Cross and secured
a building two hundred feet lon.
buik in the shape of the-Greek crosai
located on land leased by the gov
ernment justt outside the cantonment
limits and within a thousand feet 1
several barracks. This is the Com
munity House, the ground floor of
which can be and is used for a huge
hatl for assemblies and dances. .
Hither come the wives, mothers,
sisters and sweethearts of the men
and visit over week ends, or at any
time, and here come the soldiers to
meet them. It steadies and heartens
the men and it no less steadies and
heartens the folks back home. Do
they come?" They certainly do. They
quickly filled the Community House,
and the demand caused the building
of additional rooming houses form
ing a hollow square nearby. The
Y. W. C.VA. built a house for 125
people; the Masons built one for
60; the D. A. R. one for 100; the city
of Columbus one for 60.
Entertainment.
The houses are unpainted but not
crude. The furnishings are not ex
pensive, but they are tasteful. The
effect is that of a great summer ho
tel. 'A single room rents for one
dollar a night, a double room for a
dollar and a half. The project i.
self-supporting. Here ming.e without
formality or embarrassment in com
mon dances and restaurant service
the officer and the private. We t.re
in the war to make democracy pos
sible, and this Community House at
Chillicothe is certainly doing its bit
to encourage democracy in our army
And the general? The commanding
general? How does he view this ar
rangement? But for the general the
thing would never have happened
In fact General E. F. Glenn who is
in charge of the camp is more re
sponsible for the success of the en
deavor than any other one persi ..
He endorsed it heartily and threw the
weight of his influence in its favor
Incidentally, the general's daughter
was married in the Community
House.
The question that is being asked
now is: "Does it pay?" Can we afford
these seeming luxuries? In answer let
me say that the two watchwords of
our army must be morals and morale
The boys in camp at Chillicothe are
nearly all from Ohio, and it is pos
sible for their "women folks" to visit
them often. This keeping in touch
with mother, with wife, sister or
sweetheart does wonders in sustain
ing morale. It drives away homesick
ness. It makes the soldier "stick"; he
keeps his nerve; he keeps his health.
And as for morals?
"Mother is coming to see me next
week," said a husky six footer in
khaki to me. "I sure will be glad to
see her." And I looked in his glad
eyes and his wholesome face, and I
said to myself: "Yes, it pays."
