(Drama League Speaker
Favors Propaganda.
I ‘‘I believe In propaganda plays
8vhen the propaganda Is In a great
cause,” says Richard Bennett, dra
matic star at the Orpheum this week,
who Is to speak before the Omaha
Drama league Wednesday afternoon,
4 o’clock in the palm room of the
Fontenelle hotel. "Moreover, I think
It Is the function and the duty of the
theater to present propaganda drama.
The theater owes Its very birth to
propaganda, or religion.
"To say that the theater must only
be used for the purpose of light en
tertainment Is to declare that It must
he divested of half Its worth and In
fluence. My Idea Is that the theater
should be devoted to both entertain
ment and education, the latter being
in the form of propaganda plays.”
So strong hag this conviction fast
ened Itself upon Mr. Bennett that, a
few years ago. he experienced no
regreat when he did “Damaged
Goods,” although It nearly ruined
him, he declares.
"I Invested all I had at one time,
nbout $45,000, In producing "Dam- j
aged Goods,” he states, and I did
bo because I sincerely believed the
public needed the lessons the play
taught and that It would result In
a great awakening to the dangers
of a terrible curse. X felt that I
was doing a great and necessary
public work. Events have proved
that X was right.”
Defense Day Plans.
Mrs. J. B. Reynolds, president of
the American Legion auxiliary, asks
that all women who will take part In
ihe defense day parade to telephone
to her or to Mrs. Manning at legion
headquarters.
Mrs. G. C. Winterson, president
of the United States Daughters of
1812, requests members to display the
flag of the United States of America
on September 12 In honor of Defense
day and the decisive battle of 1812 at
North Tolnt and Fort McHenry, Md.
Jj. O. E. No. 1 met todRy at 2:30,
preceding their card party, to make
plane for the Defense day parade.
Associated Charities Meet.
Luncheon will be served the board
of directors of the Associated Char
ities at the Brandels restaurant Fri
day.
"Two thousand families have been
visited and 6,000 visits made in the
first six months of this year,” ac
cording to Mrs. George Doane, secre
tary for the Associated Charities.
"This Is a greater number of family
visits than was made during the en
tire year of 1923. The work is great
ly increased and more workers arc
needed." stated Mrs. Doane.
Dundee Chautauqua Circle.
The annual meeting of the Dundee
Chautauqua circle will be held Sep
tember 12 at 2 p. m. with Mrs. E.
H. Orchard, 5006 Cuming street.
When Families Object.
Dear Miss Allen: Do you think I
could be happy with a man whose
parents dislike m# very much end for
whom my family has no high opln
Ion? X lova him dearly and several
times ha has told me he loved me.
Jn every way he proves It. He Is
two years my senioi. HOPEFUL.
Of course you aren't "marrying the
man's family.” nor la he going to
spend his life with your people. But
it Is always pleasanter when harmony
prevails So If you have any doubts
shout this man and feel that all the
conditions about you are unfavor
able, why not try to conquer a love
whloh will meet with so much dls
favor and opposition?
A little Mother: Tours Is a and
story. Tou don't tell me how many
children you have, but If not more
than two, I think you could manage
to support them yourself. You would
he much happier than you are under
present conditions. Your youth Is
much in your favor.
Brown Eyes: Men who make love
to other women when they have
wives at home are certainly not the
kind to risk your life's happiness
with. He would probably do tha same
to you wera you married to him. This
man may sincerely love you, but If he
does, and If you lovo him, prov* how
deeply you really car# by not seeing
each other until you have the right
to do eo openly and honorably.
Anxious Mother: Rolled hose are
not even a flapper fashion now. The
girls are wearing garter belts low
around tha hips.

“My Husband's Love”
V !
The Strange Request That Mollle
Fawcett Made of Madge.
"Arrive seven evening Friday. Both
well. Meet us. Love. D.”
These were the words that greeted
ma when I tor# open the yellow en
elope brought me by Jerry Ticer.
For a second the realization that my
wish had been granted ao swiftly, and
that within 24 hours I should sec
Dicky and Mollle Fawcett together,
and be able to Judge the strength of
the undeniable attraction between
them, made me a bit faint. But I was
quickly Jerked back to normalcy
again by Jerry’s solicitous voice:
"la there bad news, Mis’ Graham?"
he asked. ‘‘You’re so white. Shall I
call—Miss Fawcett?"
There was a distinctly hopeful note
In hla voice, and my sense of the
ludicrous triumphed over my foolish
fears.
"No, I don’t need anyone, Jerry,”
I said, quickly hiding a smile at his
palpable disappointment. "There is
no bad news in the telegram; rather
good news. Mr. Graham and bis
mother are corning home. And you
are imagining that T look white. I
have a headache, that's all."
"Gee, that's bad," Jerry said per
functorily, eagerly adding: "I guess
I'd better tell Miss Fawcett that Mr.
Graham's coming home. I’ll bet
she'll be glad. She's always asking
so many questions about the thing
on the farm which he draws. Me
and the children have taken her to
all the places more times than once.
Madge Breaks (he News.
"By all means, go and tell her," 1
said, trying to smile encouragingly
at him, and he waited for no further
permission, his long legs rapidly cov
ering the ground to the studio.
In some curious fashion the con
templatlon of the gangling, awkward
youth In his first throes of "puppy
love” had a distinctly quieting effect
upon my own anxiety. Dicky’s ad
miration of the girl seemed suddenly
to fall Into the same category as
Jerry Ticer's moonstruck attitude,
and It was with my spirits distinctly
calmed that I went Into the house
and sought Katherine with my news
"Tomorrow evening," she repeated
speculatively. "To what spot shall 1
move my lares and penates? I can't
remain in your mother-in-law’s room,
you know, and Mollle Fawcett has
mine. I can bunk with Marlon In her
mother's room."
"You will bunk with me,” I Inter
rupted firmly, and after an odd lit
tie look at me, she quietly acqui
esced, and I made my way to the
kitehen, where I found Jitn amicably
helping Katie with the electric wash
ing machine, their recent squabble
apparently forgotten.
Katie's reception of my news was
an excited shriek:
"Tomorrow night! Jeem! .Teem
Make dot machine go qveeck as you
can, und get troo with a sweeftne«
so you help me! Don’t you hear
Old vomans rnm.n’ home, und shoos;
look at hla house! Old vomans she
keel toe!"
“Mill You Make Excuses?"
Her excitement was ludicrously
reminiscent of the many occasim
when Mother Graham In a house
cleaning frenzy has turned the hou
upside down In order to get It ready
for unexpected guests. Now was the
time for me to assert quietly that no
such performance was necessary; that
the house already was In good condi
tion, and that only a perfunctory
going over It was necessary.
But, to my own surprise, I realized
that I whs unable to utter the sensi
ble words. Instead, shamefacedly, I
discovered that I was Infected with
Katie's fever, and suddenly there ap
pea red to my mental vision a thou
sand little flaws In the appearance
of the house which must be remedied
at once.
"Are all women alike, after all,
wrhen the housecleaning germ Inocu
lates them?" I asked myself, and
answered the question In the affirm
ative many times In the hectic hours
that followed, when every member
of the household, reinforced by Mrs.
Ticer and Jerry, labored to present
an Immaculate house for the Inspec
tion of my mother-in-law.
Curtains came down, were washed
and Ironed and put up again. Ivory
woodwork and windows were
scrubbed, floors waxed, furniture
polished—there was no detail of
housecleaning omitted.
I worked een more feverishly than
the rest, but I knew that one reason
for my unusual energy was the wisn
to forget the look in Mollie Fawcett's
eyes when I told her that Dicky nnd
his mother were expected. It was so
spontaneously joyous and then fol
lowed so quickly by something very
like actual fear that Its possible |
meaning sorely troubled me.
My uneasiness wap not lessened
when a few minutes before I was to
drive to the train she came up to
me as I stood Inspecting the flower
bedecked dinner Utble and said ner
vously:
"Mrs. Graham, I know I must ap
pear terribly remiss In courtesy, but
t have so troublesome a headache
that I fear I cannot appear at din
ner. I should like to go directly to
my room, if you do not mind. "W 111
you please make my excuses to your
husband and his mother? I shall he
all .right in the morning, I am sure.”

Real oven-baking is what
makes beans best to eat and

Boiling and steaming
cook away most of the bean
flavor that tastes so good

and most of the bean nutri
ment that is so good for
you. Baking retains them
and improves them.
You can be sure that the
beans you eat are really
baked in ovens if you spec
