The Feminine Hiker Shows
Hobo Tendencies, Says
Y. W. C. A.
The lady hobo is with us. One of
the least expected results of the so
called emancipation of women wa
that respectable youiijf persons of
the feminine Render would turn
tramp, with all the shiftless instincts
of the professional hand-out man, but
such is the dire truth, as Mrs. Bessie
Zickefoose. house secretary of the
Y. W. C. A. will testify.
"The Y. W. C. A. is in the fullest
sympathy with the athletic girl who
seeks to develop health and muscle,
and her well-bein? is one of our first
concerns," said Mrs. Zickefoose, "but
we do not encourage girl hikers who
start without any particular object
ive to beat their way across the
country. The craze only started in the
past two yean, and for a time the pub
lic was interested in these girls who
felt a longing for adventure along the
highroad and who seemed a little
pluckier than other girls, and the Y.
V. C. A., too, gave a hand gladly,
hut after the first IS hard luck stories
the well of sympathy began to dry
up. The spirit of dependence, that
the world owes them a living, and
that the public ought to be glad to
help them along. i-.n't a particle more
estimable in a girl than m a man or
boy who dots the same thing, and
we have little respect for them."
The girl hiker is Increasing a a
specie every montlt, according to the
experience of the local Y, V, C. A.
"Coat to i-04t," is their uual cr-,
and mot of them are headed west.
"If they plan their tr;p before hand

always glad to e tliem," mpUined j

torn of it, unless it is the general un
rest. Girls, like men, find difficulty
in getting work, but it is seldom with
any idea of finding work that these
girls are on the 'move. They seem
to start with some idea of the glamor
of the thing, and then they boast
that the public is easy. It is cer
tainly' an undignified thing for any
girl to do, and it is far from safe for
many of them pick tip rides with any
one who comes along. Two girl
hikers the other day told me how re
lieved they were to get to Omaha,
as they expected any moment to be
arrested because they were riding in
a car which they knew had been
stolen by the driver."
If girls are really interested in
hiking they had far better join their
local walking clubs, is Mrs. Zicke
foosc's opinion.
Male Flapper

Mrs. W. W. Ifoagland will again be in charge of the
Dundee stations for the tag day this year, an office which
she has capably filled on several former occasions.
Mrs. W. D. HoBford is chairman of the infant wel
fare committee. This committee manages the five infant
welfare stations located at Twentieth and Grace, Mary
Mann, Twenty-fifth and Decatur, South Side, city hall,
Twentieth and Leavenworth and Christ Child center. At
all these stations a staff of Omaha's most prominent child
specialists generously donate their services.
N .
Miss Gertrude Stout and Mrs. Milo Gates are two
of the Junior league girls who faithfully appear every
Tuesday morning at the Mary Mann infant welfare sta
tion at Twentieth and Grace, where they donate their
services to the infant welfare department of the Visiting
Nurse association. In this manner they are releasing the
services of two paid nurses, for they assist the doctors in
the work of the station. One hundred and forty-three
babies are now being brought to this station weekly to
be treated, and their mothers receive instruction in
proper feeding and care.
Orpheum Players
to Be Guests of
Mrs. McGrew
Irene and Miriam Marmein, who
are to appear at the Orpheum the
week of October IS, in their dancing
production which is one of the most
famous of the season, will be the
guests of their cousin, Mrs. C. F.
McGrew, and will stop with her at
the Blarkstona Their mother, Mrs.
Harry Marmein, accompanies them.
Mrs. McGrew. who has recently
returned from California where she
was with the girls in Los Angeles in
June for the week of their per
formance there, is planning a num
ber of informal affairs in their honor
while they are here. I
They have been in Omaha before,
and will be remembered as being ex
ceedingly lovely, and of a pronounced
brunette type. They are not only
talented in dancing, which by the
way they taught themselves to do.
blank-looking, mechanical dancers
who form a necessary part of the
background. They are every one
girls with individual personalities."
Among their numbers it the
Peacock Revue. Thousands of
real peacock feathers-imported from
China were used to construct the gi
gantic tails, which extend more than
15 feet and are raised or dropped by
the wrarert while on the stage.

By GABBY DETAYLS.

hould be the ttgn on the
d'Mr of one young near
Benedict. Here't why:
A pretty girl ttood on street
corner one hot day with a badge of
a well known Omaha chanty on tier
arm, and a bunch of tag in her hand.
Her bat mat to fetching and her
smile to refreshing to gare upon
that a number of surly voult found
themselves contributing before thev
realirrd it. And one young man, far
from surly, be it underttood, lingered
longer (ban wa ahtolutely necessary
to linger, and pulled more change
out of hit pocket than the tag real
ly drmauded. It was hit first meet
ing with the pretty girl, but it was
far from hit last. Jle bought a tag
and won wife, for they are
to be married this month. She it a
graduate of an eastern school and
bat been active in church work. He
is one of a family of teveral brothers
and hat been in a western city for
the patt five months.
With fall at hand and the equinox
ial procession of Tag days forming
in line to the right (iabby feels that
thit bit of romance ought to encour
age both the weary tagger and the
bored tagged. Wondrous are the
ways of Cupid!
THIS higher the fewer in an out
worn comment. "The oftener
the easirr," is the motto which
ought to adorn the northeast corner
of the mirror in one Omaha
maidens room. At a western uni
versity. Gabby will not say which
one, the had a young admirer of
P. B. X. fraternity whose devotion
lingered until the whole college
talked of it, and it was not until
her senior year that the affair was
broken off. Promptly, and perhaps
for consolation, a new fraternity pin
took the place of the P. B. X over
the lady's heart and that remained
in evidence for several months while
her friends chattered busily over the
rapid change.
Thi summer, however, the maiden
apparently decided that fraternities
do make a difference. If she didn't
want the original P. B. X. man she
did want a P. B. X. pin. Maybe
it was better looking, and more
prestige was certainly attached to it.
So she went on a summer trip to a
certain lake -popular with Omahans,
and some say that she registered a
vow to herself before she left to
come back wearing the pin she
craved or none at all. And now
afjjr a month she harTfuppearH
with a smile on her lips, a P. B. X.
over her heart and a large diamond
on her left fourth finger. Dear me,

and he docs not come from the same
university, but he joined the right
