Because the picture at the Ritz

avc you noticed the new unbrella’s
men wear on their head now. Or
are those wide brims being called
hats. What an exaggeration for a
hat.
*****
Fifty-one a week, that’s how
much every eligible studd along the
stroll is getting. What can they do
with the dough—can't buy clothes
What three young Cats got too
hot to sleep in the house, that real
cool night, and decided to sleep on
Howard Kennedy’s grass. .. .They
all came back with swollen lips....
Some bug must have kised them,
(and it wasn't a jitterbug.)

We almost forgot to menshun

session.

them. We need you and you need
us. You need us to interpret a large
segment of our population to you
and you to a large segment of c«r
ppulation.
The necessity for this interpret
ation must be apparent to all
thoughtful men and women every
where in the world.
Men who evaluate contemporary
history ar e saying that the old. out
modeled racial attitudes are gone
forever, and that in the POST WAR
world, dark men must share in the
civilization of the whole earth. They
are saying that the old Imperialism
that has been will be no more and
that dark men will share with all
other breeds, “some of the Good
Things of Earth”.
In this appreciation and practice
America should lead the world. Were
she to do so. she would but be liv
ing up to her professions of a cen
tury and a half, and to her promises
made in her sacred pronouncements
and solemn legal compacts.
And dark men, on their side of
the case should be generous and just
so that they may in large measure
shape the fortunes of mankind, so
as to avoid the tragedies which have
beset mankind from the beginning.
In this crusade, the press must
lead, and in this locality we would
have one hundred thousand readers
with whom we could commune on
this lofty theme of brotherhood and
Service and peace and good will.
The task cannot be left to other
hands and other days; it must he
done now, to save the human race
from destruction, to say nothing a
bout what we call civilization.
*****
WORKERS, SAVE VOI R MONEY
WAR WAGES WILL END
The other day a defense worker
was complaining that it cost him
too much to go back and forth to
Wahoo to work, saying that out of
[$200,00 per month he had only $I6S
left each month. Formerly, the
man had received $100 per month
from other employment and he then
thought he was well paid. He sav
ed a little out of the $100.00 each
month. We wonder what he is sav
ing now'. He is typical of other
workers. Are you saving your
money through the purchase of
bonds or otherwise? Please save
it, because the wrar will be over one
of these days, and God only knows
what awaits us then.
Certain it is there will be a per
iod of readjustment as we go back
to the ways of peace from a war
time economy, and those months,
maybe years, will be full of care,
even danger. SAVE SOMETHING
EACH MONTH to meet the trying
days ahead.
Do not go up into the clouds be
cause of high wages now. Keep
your feet on the ground, every mo
ther's son of you. For as sure as
death and taxes, a long rocky road
awaits your tread.
We shall work our way out of it:
yes, but the working will be hard
and the privations great, after the
end of the war.
Save something from your earn
ings NOW!

A MESSAGE
TO GALLOWAY
(Continued from page 3)
observe things and events, and
write what I pleased about them.
As long as my column was in the of
fice by nine in the morning I had
nothing else to do. I received space
rate and expenses. I had nothing to
sell. Nobody to solicit. And did not
even have to disclose my identity.
Just have a good time and write a
bout it. Well I wrote. And I had
the good time. But what would a
fellow do down where “wine, women
and song” was the chief and prine
menu on the bill-of-fare. Of course,
I did it. And in less than a year 1
was a specimen for the learned doc
tors to experiment upon in the gen
eral hospital. When they thought
I was about to die they shipped me
back to America but. oh, boy. they
should see me now. I’ve fallen a
way to a couple of ton but even this
is evaporating fast as I trudge these
Omaha streets, without the "wine,
women and song” seeking and
searching for little bits of human
interest material to fill this message
to you each week. I’ll keep on
searching. Will you keep on read
ing the message? Until next week,
then, Au Revoir!

DO YOU WANT A BABY?
New Vitamin Combination Brings Hope
to Childless Homes
Nothing equals a baby to bring com
plete unity and happiness into the home
and tie husband and wife together in a
stronger bond of enduring love and mu
tual interest. Divorce is rare in the homes
if couples that have children.
Unhappy wives, childless due to relieve
able functional weakness may now enjoy
the desires and activity of Nature’s most
wonderful creation—a normal, fully-de
veloped, vigorous woman. A sensational
new vitamin treatment specifically for
women may be just the thing needed by
the childless wife and quickly bring the
happiness of a baby in the home. It is,
of course, absolutely harmless.
If you are childless due to functional
weakness and lack normal vigor—if you
wish to eliminate one of the great causes
of unhappy marriages, by all means try
Perlex for one week. To introduce this
new vitamin combination to a million
women quickly, the Perlex Company,
1207 Southern Bldg., Chicago, Illinois,
will send a full $2.00 supply for only $1.00
and a few cents postage. Send no money
—just your name and address. Perlex
comes in a plain wrapper—directions are
very simple and no diet or exercise is
required. Write today as this offer is
fully guaranteed.
