Members Should Know If a list were made of the "Who", Who" in the boys' division of tbe Y. M. C A. Don Jones and his good tccord would have a very prominent place as one of the outstanding lead ers in the activities. From the very first day Don came to the "Y" he started in to take tin most advantage out of all the activi ties. During his second year he made the leaders' club for gym nasium work and has proved a very efficient leader. Don was at Camp Sheldon last summer and won the highest honor award given to boys for completing the tests in all camp programs. Hi was a campmate in one of the win ring cottages and worked hard for the honor of the cottage. The camp motto, "The Other Fellow First," Don lived out every day in his camp work and play. As one of the captains Don is loyal and renders a valuable service to the members of the boys' division staff Don is popular among the many members of the association and read ily finds his place as a leader in the use of the privileges. Don is a loyal scout and a regular attendant at the First Christian Sun day school. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Jones, living at 109 North Twenty-sixth street. Boy Scouts Prepare for Big City Rally Omaha Boy Scouts are looking forward to February 17, which is the data set for their first midwinter rally. On that night the City audi torium will be thrown open to the scouts, their parents and friends. Signalling by flags, wireless and heliograph, bridge building, wall scaling, group games, scout drill and color ceremony constitute a few of the many events. Most interesting perhaps from the viewpoint of the 10 troops who won district honors, will be the final contests to decide which troops annexes the cup awarded this year for city honors. The Rome Miller cup will be pre sented by Mr. Mllrr to the scout making the best time in the fire-by-friction contest The cup is on display at headquar ters and secretly owned by several scouts. It is reported that McGrew Harris, a scout in Troop 9, can pro duce fire in six minutes and 22 sec onds, though headquarters feels con fident that a few "black horses" in several troops are preparing to beat McGrew at the Auditorium. Nicknames Popular at "Y" Boys' Division A stranger coming into the Boys' division and hearing the boys at their play and talking and calling to one another is often surprised at the nicknames used in common parlance. Nor are the instructors and office help exempt from the names attri buted to the boys who come in each day. Everyo-ne knows that "Shirt" is a good ping-pong player because he has seldom been beaten at the game. "Soup" likes the game very well and has become known as a debator in Bible classes. "Bony Head" 's found ir. the swimming pool at every op portunity coming his way and no one doubts but that athletics is a favorite pastime with him. : "Wild Fire" ;s a leader in Junior B class and his earned his title through the fire and enthusiasm he puts into his v;crk. While "Filthy McNasty," bcit'.r known as "Goudy" is becoming a movie operator. As a jckesmith he also is quite efficient. "Tarean," better known as "Jiggs," and his partner "Maggie" make a pair that terrorise the Boy division wth their antics or at camp fire furnish much merriment as "da monks." "Cabbage Ears," "Mush," "Mag gots," "Pooch," "Andy Gump," "Po tato," "Mousa "Lucy" are all well known charar.ers about the "Y" and have come upon their titles rather unexpectedly. They were so dubbed by their companions. Two New Scout Troops Are to Be Organized A new troop will soon be added to the roster of SO troops now under teh Omaha council. The Benson Methodist Episcopal church is hav ing an organization meeting on next Thursday night for the purpose of organizing a troop. Mr. Shue will be the scoutmaster. They are con fident of having a full troop. Chief Perkins, representing headquarters, will be in charge of the meeting. At the Long school on Monday night Dr. Craig Morris and Chief Perkins, from headquarters, started a new troop for colored boy scouts. The scoutmaster will be C A. Bur nett About 12 boys reported for the first meeting.

Old Styles Not Likely to Return PERHAPS the glow from the coal grate in front of which they sat rocking made the two old ladies think of by-gone fireplaces with their huge burning logs bef ore which they had spent many a merry winter's eve ning. At any rate, they fell to talking of the various customs of those distant days, and especially of the fash ion which had then prevailed. " "I can remember the first panfalettes .1 ever wore," remarked the elder of the two. "I couldn't have been more than 4 years old but I can still recall how elated I was when mother tied them about my knees. Yes," she laughed at my exclamation of surprise, "they were not regular drawers, only make believes at first, with little draw strings at the top which fastened them on securely." "I remember the first hoop skirts that I wore," sa id the other old lady. "I was about 10 when mother finally decided that I mustn't be so hopelessly old fash ioned. So she made mine out of rattan. " It came in great loops and was sold by the yard. Some even used grape vine when they couldn't get rattan, so anxious were they to be in style. Money was not very plentiful in those day, especially out in the wilds where we lived." , , "My, wouldn't it seem funny to go back to them!" laughed her companion. "And folks went to such ex tremes, too. I can remember seeinar a but of course she was an exception. old women. , "Some of them were so large, when I was a youn g girl," interrupted the other, "that their wearers could hardly get through a doorway. They had to tip them up and go in sideways. And they were often so long tnat tney swept tne tioor as well as a broom. I hen there were the low necks and short sleeves that were so fashionable in those days. How I used to suffer from t he winter's cold when I went to a party. For while one's face might burn from the heat of the fire place, there were plenty of chinks and crannies to let in the wind and one's back was always chilly." "Well, one thing is certain," I broke in upon their conversation, "we know much more about the art of dress in these days. Never, never, will we be so foolish as to wear such dreadful styles again." ' At my outburst they turned and looked at me. "Never is a long time," one of them remarked quizzically. After they had passed on to other topics of conversation I continued to think of the ways in which wom ankind has confined and hampered her body. For instance, there is the corset which due to our tennis and golf, our hiking clubs and gymnasiums, is now quite harmless. And yet, think of what it was in the centuries aeone. An instrument of torture, to sav tht Iffast. FlvrPfl in our mlonial rlav !fr na tiffin (aeTiinnaf (mm . - - - . -f " .

Then there were the enormous leg-of-mutton sleeves of the "90s which, stiffened with buckram, in their great est exaggeration, made their wearer look all width and no length. , Surely our present day modes, our straight line frocks, our moderately short skirts, and our natural sized waists are much more sensible and possess more beauty than 1he extreme unnatural modes which were in vogue in the days of our mothers and grandmothers. And so long as women continue in the business world, ride on street cars and indulge in out-of-door rports one is fairly safe in prophesying that the hoops, the tiny laced waist, and the long trailing skirt will never again be in vogue. Still, never is a long time, ! .
