It’s a Poor Officer Whol Can’t Meet a Situation Western Acreages Are Uncharted—Naval Officer, With Only a Speedometer and Wayside Signs to Guide Him, Gets Lost and Hears a Speech. file'_ Knowing how to navigate the high _^eas la no guarantee that one can motor over dry land with accuracy aa to direction and destination. ' Lieutenant and Mrs. Frederick Dodge Powers, IF. 3. N., left Omaha several weeks ago to motor to the Pacific coast where Lieutenant Pow ers has heeu ordered to join the Unit ed States destroyer Mervin at San Diego. But western acreages are not i hal ted to a. nicety and the Powers had no compass to guide them, only a speedometer and black anti white arrows along roadsides. Their routing was to take them through Walla Walla, Wash., but in stead of arriving there a few days ago hs calculated, they lost their way and drove into Lewiston, Idaho, quite unexpectedly on Tuesday, June 17. It’s a poor navy officer, however, who cannot advantage by any situation. Upon their arrival In Lew Islon, Lieutenant and Mrs. Powers discovered that John K. Quinn, na tional commander of the American Legion, was making an address In that city. The travelers went directly to the meeting and remained through out the program, continuing their journey at Its close, no worse for the Inst time, and the better hv the vig orous address delivered by the Rnose yeltlao Commander Quinn. , r-:- v Personals \___' >• Miss Helen Matters Is in New York • flty. • Harry Greenway is spending the V'eek end at Klkhnrn lodge, Kstes Park. 2 Mr. and Mrs. Hailey Morcom will Irilve home July 7 from Jackson, ^iich. , ' Mr. and Mrs. John Caldwell will •pend July snd August at Pryor lake, Jllnnesota. • Mr. and Mrs. John Hodge of Cin cinnati, O., sre the guests of Mr. and Jtrs.

That he understood the median ism of the elevator was plain, and in another minute we had made the descent to the lower floor, and had emerged into a large room lined with cars in various stages of repair, evi dently the ostensible workroom of the fcarage. A man I had not seen before was bending over one of the cars as if at work, but at our entrance he came rapidly toward us, and I deducted that he was Harry I'mlerwood’s ape dal aid. • •|vte," Mr. 1 ’inlci wood's voice was genial yet peremptory, “go in tic* fi out* t here and tell those guys to bring everything belonging to this lady in here, including that girl.

Dear Miss Allen: I have rend sev eral Idler* recently In The Omaha Bee naking your advice about young girls going out with married men. One asks if there's any harm In al lowing tier employer to kiss her; says lie loves her Hnd she ldves him. and it doesn't hurt the wife because alie doesn't know It. This girl certainly Hack* self-re sped. 1 wonder if she was married to a business man If she would want her husband and stenographer lo act this way, and, as for loving a man of this character, a girl that could is lacklpg In intelligence. Doe* she think'for a minute a man (he doesn't deserve the name) who wmiild be such a cad could he trusted’ #lf she win* him away from hi* wife and family she can expect some one else to win him from her and she would nol lie entitled to anyone's sympathy. Girl* know that it is wrong lo make date* and allow liberties from married men without asking, and every lime they allow these liberties they put a stain on their character that will never he forgotten. 1 have two daughters, and I would rather see them burled Ilian have them link so low that they would knowingly come between liusliand and wife. There are plenty of single men without the girls making trouble be tween husband and wife. You girls who are tempted to do this imagine yourselves in the wife's place and look at her side of ttie plies (ton, and I think you will be dis gusted at yours and the man's attl turie. A WIFE: AND MOTHER. Robbie P.: The only way you have of Judging which girl this boy prefer* ia by the way ha act*. Sooner or later h* will drop on« of you for the other. In the meantime, why don't you try to he fair about It. There is no reason why he should go exclu sively with you. You are not en gaged, How can a boy know what girl he does like unless he becomes acquainted? Leave for Son's Wedding. Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Booth and daughter.
