Better Homes for Turtles Latest Charity Slogan The latest amateur charity case work deals with winter housing condi tions for turtles. So piteous Is the plight of the aquatic visitors brought here last summer from an Illinois farm to paddle energetically around Aquila Court pool, or doze contentedly under its Illy pads, that Omaha housewives are making s an effort to give them, if not bigger, at least better and warmer homes. Mrs. Arthur Loomis Is saving one turtle from an Icy end by taking it ; home to amuse her little daughter, Nancy, as it paddles about a tin tub this * winter. Mrs. Lee Ross Newkirk, who has two little sons to keep entertained, ; has taken two, and is constructing an aquarium for them in the basement. This is no new thing foe Mrs. Newkirk, who had an aquarium in her girlhood , home in England. “We always had a turtle or two in our pool,'' she said, ; “though they loved coal and would withdraw In seclusion for a month or * so at a time Into our fuel bin, and would frighten us by emerging unex t pectedly, as black as night.

It was the height of folly, I told myself scornfully, to think that dan ger of some sort theatened me be cause Marion had imagined a face i at the window, I had seen flat, smudgy footprints upon the veranda roof, and Katie had found what look ed like a torn Chinese laundry ticket beneath my window. There were plausible and common s.nse Interpre tations of all three incidents. 1 was sure. Nevertheless the touch of the tiny weapon against my side was very re assuring, when, after seeing that the children were dressed and getting everything ready for the drive to Marvin I took the little pistol and thrust It Into my dress where I could reach It readily.

I replied, purposely accenting a note of scorn j in my voice. "Fix his breakfast and leave it. In the oven, with his melon In the Icebox.

He like eferttng alvays shoost so." Now I know that Katin would have no fuss at all about leaving a meal in the oven for me. With most foreign-born women and many of otir older feminine generation—Mother Graham is a striking example—Katie believes that the man of the house is not only the head of the house hold, hut a creature set apart and above all others, who must have the best seat, at te table, the cholsest tidbits of food, and whose comfort— and whims—must he considered be fore that of ary other member of the family.
