AMERICAN RED CROSS
Confronted with the greatest
number of disasters striking in
any twelve-month period in its
entire history, the American Red
Cross during the past year pro
vided emergency relief and. re
hrbili ition aid to 100,000 per
sons at( the scene of 157 (catas
trophes, according to information
released Tuesday by Cecil W.
Slocum of Omaha, chairman of
coming membership R'dl Call of
the Red Cross in Douglas County.
The alar ring rise in disasters,
Slocum pointed out, represented
a figure approximately 50',1 high
er than the average frequency re
corded since 1881 when the Red
Cross was founded in this coun
tiy. Relief ope nations in the past
year carried the Red Cross em
b!?m into vTltually cve-y state
of the Union.
“Although the types of-disaster
vaiitd the result in most eases
was the same,” Slocum pointed
cut. Following the emergency
period of rescue, mass feeding
and housing, Red Cross workers
saw in the wake of nearly every
disaster disheartened families
viewing their homes in ruins,
their clothing and essential
household goods destroyed or da
maged beyond repair and the un
certainty as to how they were to
reestablish themselves. And des
pite the fact that last year’s dis
asters occured almost every oth
er day, the vast army of Red
Cross volunteers, and trained ex
peris were able to materially as
sist every family unable to bear
its burden without outside help”
Slocum said.
Explaining Red Cross disas
ter relief falls into two district
parts, Slocum said the first res
ponsibility was that of saving
lives, giving imedieal attention,
and housing and feeding the
homeless. As soon as the emer
gency passes he said, the long
and carefdl task of rehabilitation
begins. Family relief workers
with years of experience are
rushed to the scene from nearby
sections to analyze individually
the needs of each family. With
the Ihelp of a committee compos
ed of leading local citizens giants
are made for the rebuilding of
homes and the purchase of es
sential household goods and
clothing.
In the 3,700 chapters, located
in nearly every community in the
country, committees are constant
ly preparing themselves for dis
aster Slocum said. Men and wom
en are being trained in the time
tested methods of disaster relief
that some day may be instru
mental in relieving human suf
fering in their community oi
some nearby section, he said.
“Last year's experience em
phasized the need for a stronf
program of preparedness,” Slo
cum declared. “The unexpectei

Mr. Van and Sam and Betsey were
walking down a London street one
bright, sunshiny day, as carefree as
they could be. Betsey was leading
their little dog Gyp by his leash, and
all of them wore ready for any ad
venture that might turn up.
Up one street and down the other
they went, seeing strange new sights
and people with every turn.
“Look at this odd looking man com
ing along pushing a cart,” cried
Betsey; “what kind of suit is that he s
wearing, Mr. Van?”
In a moment they were beside the
fellow and his cart, and indeed as
Betsey said, he was a strange looking
sight. He had on a dark suit, an or
dinary every day dark suit, and a
dark felt hat—but, all over the suit
from the bottom of his trousers to
the neck of his coat, were thousands
and thousands of buttons, sewn on so
closely, that you could hardly see the
cloth. Even his necktie was com
pletely covered with white buttons.
They' shimmered and glistened in the
sun with every step he took, and ns
he walked along he cried out his wares
in a loud, high voice.
“Well, now,” laughed Mr. Van,
“here is one of the real sights of
London—this fellow is a button cos
termonger. Now a costermonger is a
kind of peddler found only in Eng
land. They often dress themselves up
tn funny outfits like this to attract
customers. Look Inside his cart and
you’ll find every kind of button you
ever heard of.”
Sam and Betsey shouted with de
light at the button peddler and Ids
cart, and the button man was only
too pleased to have them see his but
ions. He had every kind of button
for sale, real ones to be sewn on
clothes, as well as dozens and dozens
of queer looking make-believe buttons
that were only souvenirs.
Betsey leaned forward and picked
one out of the cart. “What’s this
one for?” she asked.
“Ah,” said the button man, wink
ing his eye at Mr. Van, “that is a
very remarkable kind of button, for
you need only sew one of those but
tons on your clothes, and you can but
ton every single solitary piece of
clothing you have right on to that
button, even your shoes.”
The children flew into gales' of
laughter over this remarkable button
and declared they must surely buy
that one.
“And this one,” laughed Sam, pick
ing another button out of the cart,
“what’s this for?’
“Ah, that is a very wonderful but
ton too, young man,” said the peddler.
“Do you see your little brown dog
there? Well, it is made for a dog
like that; see how his white ear hangs
down below the other one, well, all
you need to do is to sew tins button
on his ear and button it up level with
the other one any time you want to.”
This started the children laughing
so loudly that they attracted as much
attention as the peddler, and when be
showed them a bright red button
which lie declared could be sewn on
Sam’s coat to button his school books
on instead of cnrrving them, Mr. Van
declared that they had seen enough.
“Next thing you know,” said Mr.
Van, “you’ll find yourselves buttoned
onto the cart and then what will you
do?’
a grim warning that no section
of our country is immune to
catastrophe” he said.
“Dependent solely 8n the wil
lingness of a generous public to
nlleviato suffering, the Red Cross
this year is appealing to the na
tion for a million more members
to expand its various services and
to stand ready for those unpre
dictable days ahead when disas
ter is destined to strike. I am
confident that when this year’
Roll Call is held in Douglas
County starting next November
20, our community will re-pledge
confidence in the Red Cross with
its full quota of new members,”
Slocum said.

I Lincoln Nebr. Oct. 19 (Special) I
—Charles E. Sandall, director of
tory plan in Nebraska, has re
turned from the New York c~n
vention of the United Brewers
Industrial Foundation with fresih
plans for continuing the “clean up
or close up” program against
tho small minority of disreputa
blo beer establishments.
Mr. Sandall who gave a re
fort on Nebraska’s progress
against offending autlets, said
that the Foundation voted to con
tinue its work of self-discipline
in the nine states where the pro
gram now is functioning and to
extend it to eigiht additional
states during the next year.
The Foundation, composed of
the nation’s leading brewers, also
authorized continuation of the
newspaper advertising campaign
to inform the public of action
taken against beer taverns wh:ch
operate against the law and are
offensive to the community. Mr.
Sandall said Nebraska’s liquor
laws and their enforcement were
commended by delegates to the
convention.
1 he following new officers of
tho Foundation were elected: Carl
\V. Badenhausen, Newark, N. J.,
chairman; S. E. Abrams Milwau
kee Wis. First vice chairman; A.
Kirschstein, Waukesha, W i s.,
second vice chairman; and Ru
dolph J. Sdhaefer Brooklyn, N.
V. treasurer.
“The Foundation program and
objectives should be sufficient
evidence that the brewing indus
try has recognized its social res
ponsibilities,” Mr. Badenhausen
said in assuming his office. “The
faithful discharge of those res
ponsibilities means the preserva
tion for the country of an indus
try which pays a million dollars
daily in federal taxes, has created
more than a million new jobs
and stimulated local business
everywhere.”

Chemistry will make the United
States self-sufficient if Europe’s
war Shuts off important supplies
from abroad, L. F. Livingston,
duPont chemist, told President
Rowland Haynes of the Univer
sity of Omaha at a conference
today.
“Whatever emergency im a y
stem from the present conflict,
I am sure that American factor
ies in this country will be able
to take care of it,” said Living
ston.
In 1914 when belligerent na
tions made it dangerous for mer
chants ships to ply the seas, neu
tral countries, including the Uni
ted States suffered because
necessary imports were cut off.
Industrial activity and employ
ment for millions were threaten
ed. Even the health of the peo
ple was endangered when certain
medical supplies were not availa
ble.
Chemistry can prevent such a
situation from recurring in the
United States, Livingston said.
He cited as examples of materials
produced here now which had to
be imported in 1914—nitrates,
dyes, potash, chemical rubber op
tical glass, camphor and other
drugs.
All of these products, the
chemist said, have been develop
AUNT JANE GOES
MODERN
Br ANN JOYCE
' Her house was filled witn ttntjqnt?,
accumulated by generations of dead
and gone Carys, and Aunt Jane loved
each piece.
Little Jean, however, h^r niece and
namesake who lived with her, longed
with all her heart for the modern
furniture she saw in shop windows—
furniture that could be used without
danger of accident.
“All these old family pieces will be
yours some day, Jean,” her aunt told
her. “I only wish there was money
to repair them. All of them need it.”
“Of course I shall prize them, Aunt.
Jane,” dutifully replied Jer.n, “but—1
“There are no 'huts’ a be ut it,
Niece,” announced Aunt Ji.i.e . -r
tartly.
Here nature stepped into the pic
ture with her love of contrasts and
Jean, small and dainty, fell in love
ivith a big, handsome young man
whose name was Strong.
Fresh flowers began to appear
among the antiques and were placed
jn vases of rare old china, too often
with cracks and chipped edges. Jean,
too, took on a bloom that matched the
flowers and Aunt Jane smiled, though
sometimes she sighed.
Years ago flowers had come to her
from a young man who had not quite
the Cary background and she had
rrushed down the longings of her
Heart, lie and his flowers iiad ceased
to come and the years had turned
young Jane into a lonely spinster.
One evening after a movie Edgar
Strong came home with Jean and
father fearfully she invited him in.
Aunt Jane received him cordially and
then left the young people together.
J.ater she returned with a tray of
cakes and cocoa.
It was the wretched old horsehair
sofa that caused the trouble. As Ed
gar sat down on it one shaky leg
collapsed under his weight which was
no small matter. Sliding along the
slippery horsehair his cup, a piece of
Lowestoft china, crashed to the floor.
Aunt Jane could not control the gasp,
that followed. Embarrassed and- ar. •
noyed, Edgar tried to make light oJ
the accident but Aunt Jane’s face was
set.
“An elephant in a china shop, that’s
what I am,” he said ruefully. “I’d
better go before I do more damage.”
So the evening was spoiled and
Edgar went away with many apolo
gies. A gift of dainty china for Miss
Cury came the next day but she
spurned it.
“Modern stuff,” she scorned. “But
the young man means well.”
“I like it. Auntie,” Jean confessed.
“I know it’s not the kind you like,
but—”
“‘But’ again, Niece. I believe
you're in love with that boy. Over
looking his awkwardness.”
“Maybe I am. Anyway, a sofa is
made to sit on and I hate that slip
pery horsehair.” A little sob crept
into her voice. “And I don’t want
Edgar to stop coming to see me. I
don’t want-to be an—”
ed as a result of American chem
istry. From this, he asserted,
fanners and industrialists in the
Midwest should take the cue to
turn to research in developing
farm products for industrial use.
He suggested a city-farm com
mittee to raise a fund for this
important research.
The chemist described for Uni
versity txf Omaha students how
science had filled .many Ameri
can needs at home. In 1914 there
was no synthetic chemical equi
valent for natural bristles. This
country was dependent upon ship
ments it could get from the far
corners of the globe.
“Today these necessities are
being met chemically through
nylon which provides gut for
surgical sutures and also bristles
better than any taken from the
hogs of China or Siberia. Fur
thermore within a few months
*" nwwiHo v^ti hosi
ery, the latest triumph of Ameri
can chemistry.”
A test pair of nylon hose —
made of coal, air and water—
I "
“An old maid like me, you mean*
child. Maybe you’re wiser than I
was.”
f Weeks passed and then Edgar re
I turned with a peace offering of
flowers. Everything went well until
the young man sat down on Grand
father Cary's wobbly old rocker.
Heedlessly rocking back the chair
went over backward and of course
Edgar went, too, and fell with a
crash. Aunt Jane dashed in just in
time to see a mirror quiver from the
shock and fall in a hundred pieces.
“Cousin Harriet's mirror!” ex
claimed Aunt Jane. “Now seven years
of bad luck!”
“I’ll remove this part of the bad
luck,” said Edgar. “I see this is n<J|
place for a fellow named Strong.”
So Edgar went away and this time)
he stayed away.
One day when Jean was out a man
came to the door. “Any antiques to
sell ?” he asked. “Ah, that’s a fine old
table, though chipped. May I look
around?”
He was inside now. “Happen to
have a customer who wants an old
sofa.,That one could be mended. No
good now to sjt on but that’s what
it’s for.” His words recalled Edgar’s
fall.
Before she realized it she was bar
gaining with the man. For the sofa
and other pieces he offered a price
that made Aunt Jane gasp. Here was
a windfall and a nice balance to re
place other broken pieces.
“Come back next week,” she said.
“I’ll consider your offer.”
“Jean,” she said to her niece that
evening, “Cousin Ellen’s been wanting
you to visit her. Try to get off next
Week. You look peaked.”
“But eon we a.Tool it, Ai/uHtr?**
“We cev. ar.d you unisl go. And,
if an, that strung Mr. .Strong. He’s
I* the tum'ture business, you said.”
“Yes, wifh Ciay and Hadlett. Mod
test furniture you know.”
“Well, tiii.es differ, but gat off
kxm;. i want to c)e»i! iu.nse.”
Jmc out of the «uy Miss Cary went
to work with a will, Eieee after pieco
tin; antique dealer bought. .Some
thiiigs she refused to part with. Her
fine china she krp!, Joan wauki ap
preciate that iater.
Her heart ached that nigiti but the
next day she hunted up Edgar Strong.
"Jcon’s sway,” she toid him, “and I’ve
sold most of my broken old furniture.
It brought good prices and I want to
replace it with things that won’t
break down. Will you help me?”
“Will I? I’ll show you joat what
Jean woald like. I’ve heard her aay.**
“We’ll give her a surprise when'
HK comes back. Will you help nae?” j
“Indeed I will, Miss Cary. In every
way.”
Edgar was waiting for Jean at her
home when she came back from her
trip.
"Surprise! Surprise” exclaimed Ed
gar and Aunt Jane at the same time.
For a few minutes the girl looked
dazed at the changes, tlien sank down,
on the luxurious sofa, so strong And
comfortable.
“You explain to her, Edgar,” urged
Miss Cary. Then she considerately
withdrew, but not before she had
seen Edgar seat himself beside Jean
in a manner both protective sad
possessive.
“Well, it’s given me a jnlt,” con
fessed Aunt Jane, “but I guana 1
needed one.”
