Women Organize Curling
Teafns for Winter
For the first time in Omaha, and even In the country, women are organiz
ing to disport themselves at the ancient and honoratde Scotch game of curl
Ing. Ohe phase of the game is already very familiar to them: wielding the
broom. The short, vigorous sweeping strokes of men are always a source of
entertainment to onlookers at the game in this country. The matter is prob
ably taken more seriously In Scotland. The stones which are skidded across
I he Ice weigh about 40 pounds, which will be an eliminating factor for some
women, who would like to play. Women play In Scotland and Canada.
Mrs. Peter T.owden Is organizing -her team, or ‘'rink," as It Is called, to
be composed of four members. It will lie named the Glenernies—for the place
In Stiotlond where she was born. Among the men's teams In Omaha are the
Caledonians, Heathers, Balmorals, Thistles, Scots and Elsie Craigs. Mrs. W.
■\V. P. Horne Is also organizing a group. Mrs. Harry B. Peters, Mrs. John
Mahr, Mrs. A. Melvin and Mrs. M. M. Levings are others Interested.
The first good ice at Miller park will find these captains, or skips, with
their sturdy aids coaxing their stones along with, "Come awa', noo, come
awa’, * which/translated Into English, means, "Come on, baby.” A silver cup
will lie provided as the women's trophy.

Young (iirl: You need many friends
that you may' learn to answer wisely
your yes or no.
So gladly accept the friendship of
fered you and generously reserve
judgment if your friend ceases to call
—attracted for a while, it may be, by
the interest of a new friendship.
Don't, unless you are engaged to
him, expect all his time and atten
tion. If you do, he'll only cease to
call. Don't give him all your time.
He has no right to ask it.
Don’t pursue him. Man demneids
to he the pursuer. Deprive him of
this privilege and you'd lose his In
terest.
Don’t be a gold digger, luring him
to spend more than lie can afford on
entertaining you. You'll force him
to stop calling if you do.
Don’t torment your friend and try
to arouse his jealousy with tales of
your popularity and admirers. He's
doubtless seeking a restful friend,
not a braggadocio social butterfly,
and you'll only eueceed in driving
hltn away,
Don’t be affected, stiff and formal
when he calls. Let him wipe the
dishes if necessary, but make him
feel welcome and at home.
Look as pretty and as dainty as
you can. Be jolly. Treat him as a
friend, but not as your property.
If after all he stops calling—why,
bless his heart, let him go; you'll have
to, anyway. There may be any one
of a thousand reasons why he stopped,
hut you'll have done your part by
proving a loyal and generous friend.
And If you follow all the sugges
tions I have listed, doubtless you'll
have no time to worry over why he
stopped calling. You'll he so busy
entertaining young men who eagerly
desire to call on you—and keep on
calling.
Dear Martha Allen: It seems that
you are capable of solving all sorts
of problems. Ours is unusual. We
have a valuable police dog. or rather,
a puppy, and so far have been unable
to And a name "good enough” for
him. Will you please suggest some
good ones and very kindly oblige.
"HOPEFUL.”
Call your dog Wolf, short for "Wulf
von der polltzelgesellschaft.” Which
you can learn to pronounce If you
don't already know It, when you
speak of your dog to friends.
It means Wolf of the police depart
ment, and Is appropriate, I think. One
family have named their dog. a mag
nificent Great Dane, "Zeus,” which
is unusual, and Indicative of power
and strength.

Why Madge Refused to Tlilnk of
Anything Save Today.
Katie giggled triumphantly, albeit
a bit uncertainty, as Lee Chow turn
ed his back upon us and with
dignity stalked back to the camp
fire, bearing the pan of potatoes
Katie had scrubbed for roasting be
neath the ashes.
I turned a frowning glance at
her, but only succeded in having
her lower her voice—she was too
Joyous to refrain from speech alto
gether.
‘‘I guess dot Tea Shop hold his
horses now,” she exulted. "He see
dot bailee stay mtt his poor old
Katie, and let her help heem mit
steecks.”
There was no shaddow of use In
reproving her for her absurd
jealousy nf the Chinese, but r knew
a sure way of diverting her attention
from for a few minutes at least,
and I promply seized it.
"Katie:” J said sharply. “I want
you to stop this absurd fashion of
calling yourself ‘poor’ and ‘old.’ You
are neither, you know, but if you
keep on everybody will begin to
call you poor old woman.”
A comical look of consternation
overspread my little maid's face.
''Say! Vot you tink of dot?” She
addressed the winds and the waves
impartially. “I liefer tink vot I say.
und my tongue like little puppy
dog s tail, eet nefer get tired vagging.
1 s'poHe I talk like dot till hot place

Ka—. Now shoost see vot a beeg
bone I got instead of a head. 1
start saying dot right away! But you
vatch. I no going say dot vunce
more, und I tank you und tank you."
She seized my hand and kissed
it in her vehement and most em
barrassing fashion, and I Judged the
time ripe to slip away to the camp
fire.
“I'll help you by telling you every
time I hear you say it," 1 promised
"Now be sure to let Junior string
that stick by himself, even if he
should take a long time. He is to
string one, and you und Marion the
rest.”
"Nobody touch dot steek but dot
babee, heemself,” Katie promised
vociferously as I walked away, and
Junior’s high-pitched joyous chatter
as he impaled the pieces of steak,
onions and bacon, sounded pleasant
ly In my ears as I made my way to
the campfire.
Lee Chow was assidously tending
the blaze, raking the brands care
fully into a circle hounded by the
stones nlready placed for the hold
ing of the sticks containing the "pi
rate steaks" the children were so
excitedly preparing.
"Lee Chow," I said softly, yet
peremptorily, and the man evident
ly realized something unusual in my
voice for he came to attention like
a soldier and his steady eyes never
left my face as I spoke.
”1 must ask you to lie careful
how you treat my little boy before
the maid, Katie." I said, speaking

hind us. “She has been with me sinde
my marrage, nnd she was tho little
boy's nurse. She loves him very
much, and would feel very badly if
she thought he liked anyone else
better. Do yon understand tne?"
His eyes stared at me unwinklngly
until my own dropped.
Wliat Will Dec Chow Do?
''Yes, Lee Chow understand." he
said quietly. “Lee Chow bo ver'

and I felt a little shiver run down
my vertebra as I realised that he
patently knew something concern
ing the mystery surrounding Hugh
Urantland which had lent to his
race that note of despondency when
he Rpoke of his master.
Hut mingled with my apprehen

was a panlcstricken though humor

tainer, who—to use Dicky's charac

could not Imagine, and with a queer
little feeling that the arrangements
were not in my hands but in his,
I put aside speculation concerning
even the Immediate fanciful future,
and turned my attention instead
to the very practical present of
roasting potatoes beneath the ashes
of a campfire.
