TIIi: TOP T1IK 1'lJtST DAY.
Last evonlng'a Liborty Loan 'parade
Htul demonstration surpassed in slao
effectiveness and enthusiasm any yot
glvon, and Tho Tribune accords to
the womon of the city a full measure
of credit for tho success. Every
woman's patriotic order or soctoty
was roprosonted; it was tho deft
hands of tho women who decorated
tho floats which so woll depicted the
societies they represented; It wag
with hearts in tune with tho patriot
ism of the hour and tho occasion that
those hundreds of womon, many of
thorn garbed in the uniform of tholr
-work, marched "in tho parade and by
their presence infused onthuslasm in
thoso men or women who had not yet
caught the spirit of doing their bit.
Tho handsomely decorated floats
represented tho Rod Cross, the Sammy
Girls, tho telophono employes, the D.
A. it. and tho W. It. C. In addi
tion several women's fraternal socie
tios were represented' in the line.
Tho parade extended for a distance
of oight blocks, marching in columns
of fours.
Preceded by tho Union Pacific shop
band of Omaha, theso several divisions
of women's societies and tho prettily
decorated floats headed tho parade,
followed by tho Municipal band, the
speakers accompanying the Union
Pacific special, the volunteer liberty
loan workers, a wqndorful outpouring
of Union Pacific employes, tho drum
and bugle corps, the Boy Scouts and
citizens generally. Tho car repairers
were especially conspicuous by reason
of tho car containing the Kaiser in
his casket, a long range cannon and
a tank which fired a shell at intervals
as it traversed the streets. Tho
parade swung down Dewey to Locust
and the crowds that lined the streets
loudly applauded, evidence that not
all the patriots were in line. The
inarch was over the usual courso and
ended at tho court house" square.
The speakers of the evening were
Frank Gaines and W. F. Gurley of
Omaha, a maimed American soldier,
who had been returned home and an
English soldier who had been wound
ed! seven tfnnes . These men , wore
members of the party who are travel
ing in a special over tho Union Pacific
delivering bond talks at each station
on tho system. The principal address
was made by Mr. Gaines and it was
a strong appoal to the audience to
support tho boys overseas by the
liberal purchase of bonds. The sol
diers related some of their experiences
on the front and theso were highly In
tre.'iting, especially the accounts of tho
outrages by tho Huns as related by
the Englishman.
The closing talk was made by Mr.
Gurley which, though brief, was
strong and oloquent.
County Chairman Tem'ple, of the
bond campaign, presided as chairman
of the meeting.

In a letter to tho Sammy Girls, Chas.

Women's wear that delivers service without waste
Y
OU want to help the. the country and the

Pay enough that you can count on right wear; for that means
no waste of money, no waste of material, no waste of labor.
The money thatrwould have to
be spent twice for cheaper gar
ments that are quick to show
wear will be saved; the ma
terials will be saved for other
purposes; the labor saved for
other needs.
And we have seen to all that
by buying for you only from
makers who are co-operating
with the government by pass
ing up fabrics needed for over
seas duty and skillfully turning
their wonderful ability to cre
ating styles of fashionableness
without wasteful over-decoration.
You'll know what we mean
when you see them, and what's
more, you'll like them. You'll

peal, ndrtrosietl specifically to Preii-i
dent Wilson, was delivered to him In
the White House at 11 o'clook by '
Frederick Oederlln. the acting Swiss
charge d'affaires. Half an hour onrllor,
the Aunt rr -Hungarian appeal had been
handed to Socrotary of Stato Lansing
by tho Swedish minister.
It was officially announced that
President Wilson would lose no tlmej
in making roply to tho two notos. ,
-OITIclal nnnouncomont of tho at
titude of the United Statoa govern
ment still wore being withheld but
thoro was no abatement of the Indica
tion that if Germany seoks a "ne-
Kctlntlon" leadline to round tabid con'
ferenccs nnd diplomatic nulbbliiKS the
offor will fall flat. ,
If she actually 'nccopts without re
