Lowly Chocolate Fudge
Takes Place in Sun
At last the lowly chocolate fudge hag taken Its rightful place in the sun!
The Omaha Bee carried a story on page one Sunday under the heading
"Zeppelin On Way to Join Navy of U. 8.” It contained information that Mrs.
Howell Geiger, wife of the assistant United States military attache at Berlin,
was the only American woman present to see the craft depart. "She spent
half the night making delicious fudge which she handed out to the delighted
Americans, who were departing on the greatest dirigible voyage in the history
of aeronautics," the account said.
One wonders why this American woman handed out fudge at the last
moment Instead of hot coffee and doughnuts.
Mrs. Lawrence Churchill, wife of Major Churchill of Omaha, who knows
more about aeronautics perhaps than any woman in the city, says that cigar
ota are not allowed on such Journeys as the ZR-3 was about to make, and the
fudge was provided as a life saving substitute.
Mrs. Geiger is known In Omaha. She formerly attended Brownell hall
here. She is a niece of Dr. E. L. Bridges and Dr. W. O. Bridges. During the
war her husband took his balloon training at Fort Omaha.

Your Problems
Does lie IjOVp You?
f>cai Miss Alien'. 1 am a perplexed
girl of -3. Not. having a mother, I
inn coming to you for advice. I have
I .ecu receiving the attention* of a<
young man three years my senior for
the past IK months. I love him. Can
1 find out whether he cares for me'.’
is It possible to make a young man
care more for you than as^ a. friend?
Don't try to find out whether the
y nung than cares for you. Tf he does
care, you will soon learn of It. Yon
can't, hurry matters In any way. Just
be patient. The test of hts love will
be his asking you to be his wife.
Surely he enjoys your society, or
he would not have continued his at
tentions for 18 months. If he is the
man to make you happy I hope that
y ou will soon learn that he loves you.
Rut even though he continues to
n eat you merely, as a friend, do not
worry. Knjoy as much of his friend
ship as he accords you. There is no
way of forcing him to love you. Be
v our natural, charming self and do
not think too seriously of him or of
any other young man who has not
proved his iove by asking you to be
liis wife.
Would-be-popular: As soon as you
forget yourself sufficiently to become
interested in the happiness of others
instead of bending every effort, to
attract admiration, you will have
made great strides toward the goal
that means so much more than pass
iiiar popularity.
Now and then some person unites
with traits that command the quick
and universal admiration called popu
larity, deep and fine qualities—
old-fashioned qualities such as un
selfishness, strength of character,
gentleness, self-forgetfulness.
But. In many cases popularity
means merely the glitter of cheap
appeal at the expense of sincerity
and self-respect. In such cases It
repels the person whose friendship
and love are worth having.
So do not worry over your pop
ularity or unpopularity. Forget your
self in helping others and you will
earn far hatter gifts than popularity
- the devotion of the persons who
really understand you, your own self
respect and—In all probability—the
love of the one man who will mean
all the world to you.

The Surprising Plan Dicky Dis
closed fo Madge
Fortunately 1 am used to Dicky's
extravagance of speech, therefore I
responded equably to his exaggerated
statement concerning the state of ins
buttons.
"You are sure every button is
gone?" I said, smiling. "There aren't
any garments with perhaps one lone
fastener remaining'.'”
He grined reluctantly.
“Well, there are enough of ’em
gone and enough things torn to. keep
you out of mischief the rest of the
day," he retorted, and when he had
brought the garments to me. I found
that he had spoken only the trutii.
With characteristic carelessness,
Dicky had not looked over his ward
robe each week, ns I always ask
him to do, and as nothing annoys hint
so much as to meddle with his cloth
ing, I never mend anything for him
unless he brings it to me.
The result of this combination Is
usually distressing, and the pile of
clothing which he dumped upon tho
couch in my room was no exception
to the rule. I made a mental com
ment that the repairing would not
only in Dicky's parlance keep me out
of mischief during the day, but also
far into the night. I was careful not
to voice the complaint, however, but
my seif control almost snapped at his
next sentence:
"Mother’s acquired an insane notion
that she’d like to take that early
train In with me in the morning, do
some shopping and go out* to Mrs.
Durkee's in the evening. Of course,
it’s out of tlie question for her to run
around New York alone, and I cer
tainly can’t be bothered with her. So
T told her you’d drive her to Marvin
early in the morning, and then she
and Mrs. Durkee can travel into the
city at their leisure. If you Htart ear
ly enough perhaps I can manage to
go with you as far as Patchogue and
take the train from there.
Madge's Suggestion.
T Ignored this magnanimous offer
devoting my attention solely to the
.proposal he so rooly had made.
"You told mother what?” I Inquir
ed with the emphasis every wdfe
knows how to employ.
Dicky turned astonished eyes upon
me.
"I told mother you'd drive her to
Marvin early in the morning,” he re
peated huffily. ’’What's the matter
with that?”
Crowding to my lips were hot
words denouncing the Inconsistence
and selfishness of expecting me to be
a, seamstress far into the night and a
chauffeur early the next morning.
But I repressed thepi, contenting my
self with a nonchalant.
"Nothing., except that I'm afraid
you'll have to make other arrange-^
ments. T cannot possibly drive her to
Marvin.”
"Well I'll be-” Dicky began the
sentence in amazement and finished
it in a burst of rage.
"You can travel alt over the coun
try, every time you or any of your
friends want nn errand done! But
when I ask a simple favor of you—'
I interrupted him icily.
"It is quite evident you do not un
derstand what you ore asking," 1
said. "You have broifght rue enough
work to keep me busy nearly all
night if you want your things to
morrow morning. If I get them done,
I shall be In no shape to drive a car,
and I will not attempt to do so. If
mother will wait until the next day
I shall be glad to drive her in.”
"Have Your Own Way!”
Dicky's answer to this proposition
which I considered eminently rea
1 sonable, was to snatch up the cloth
ing he had brought me, wad it up into
a. bundle and start for the door with
ridiculous dangling ends of coat
sieeves, trouser-legs and under-gar
i ments
"I’ll take them to a tailor, you poor,
1 overworked martyr!” he sneered.
1 But long experience with my tem
peramental husband has taught me to
take him seriously, and when to
Ignore his temper fits, and 1 moved
swiftly between him and the door.
“’Don’t be an anointed idiot be
cause you know how.' ’’ I quoted from
the family maxlmtt. "Give me those
tilings, for I w'ant to start right at
them, and—leave mother to me. I'll
manage her trip to Marvin to her
satisfaction, I'll promise you, even
though I shall not start in the morn
ing.”
Dicky made a feeble show of
Hutching, but. I knew that he needed
some of the garments for his Journey
In the morning, snd that It would
he exceedingly doubtful If he could
secure the services of the town's
sole and% exceedingly busy tailor.
Therefore, I was not surprised lo
hear a gruff.
”Oh, have It your own way—you
always do!” as he let go the gar
- m»nts which I grasped, and hurried
^ out. the door.

Some Bookkeeper!
An unexcelled record for ac
counting was made h.v Mrs. M. M.
I.evings, who had charge of all
tickets and money for the “get
out-the-vote luncheon,” given Sat
urday at Hotel Kontenelle.
The hotel agreed to accommo
date 80(1 people for luncheon, so
at that number reservations
stopped. Light hundred and three
people were served at a cost of 75
cents per plate, totaling $602.25.
No “free meals" were given. Kvcn
the honor guests were paid for by
individuals.
When Mrs. I.evings counted U|i
checks and cash following the
luncheon she found she had
$602.50, being, therefore, 25 cents
to the good.
.lust at that moment a woman
came along saying: “You remem
ber you owe me a quarter. You
couldn't make change awhile ago.”
"There’s that 25 cents!" said
Mrs. Levings, smiling. ”1 guess
I’ll pay the hotel and go home
before anyone comes along and
upsets my balance.”
