BOUT the only good purpose
"The Whip" Is serving Is to
remind us of the progress we
have made in the matter of
our amusement at the theater.
Time was when a play of the
ype of "The Whip" would have been
tailed as worth while, while the scenlo
Kjulpment would have been considered a
triumph of stage craft. It takes us back
to the days of ' "The Ticket of Leave
Man," "Under the Oua Light," and slm
Bar Joys of forty years ago. but, asMe
from a bit of reminiscent ache. It falls
lo ilque us to anything Ilka animated ex
trtselon. It belongs to a vanished day,
to an obsolete type of entertainment, and
no that Is not worth while making the
tfrort to revive. It has much In com
non with the generality of modern plays,
towever; Its poverty of imagery, Its ab
wUite lack of appeal to the Imagination, !
ts Impotence In any effort to stimulate
ireatlve thought, places It quite on a
riy with niout of the modern "drama."
Let us be thankful that we liave pro
treisd beyond "The Whip" stage In
to-amj, and. let. us at. the same time ex
rre a belief that the present era of
Utile, too. will put, and that at some not
rrry dlvtant day the producing managers
fill realise something of ttjrtr oppor
tunity, and give to the folks who go to
(he theater Urania a' little more worthy
f the nanus. . '
"A Pair of Elxea." It It Frasee's suo
tessful farce,' comes to the Brandela the

the: Eureka Digestive DU company, In
ahich George B. Nettleton and T, Boggs

aiasolv and send for their lawyer, who
proposes that they play a show-down

sitters on his duties as butler in the Net-

more distressing by a cockney maid, who

Mra. Emma Reed Davlsson. who haa
this work In charite, haa visited thirty
two of these clubs and assisted In plan
ning their work where - possible. The
number of women reached by speakers,
who represented the club work, waa 4,606.
The extension service has a list of
seventy-nine purely local rural clubs.
These are heartily encouraged regardless
of. the amount of work they are doing,
for In the thinly settled districts, the club
Is the center of the social life.
' The remaining 1C8 clubs served are In
towns ranging in population from ISO to
the city of Omaha.
Home Eessomlea Popular.
The home economics work In the state
Is reported to be growing very rapidly.
In response to this demand, outlines have
been prepared by the extension service
to be used as courses of study by home
economics clubs. These contain ten or
twelve lessons each, the Idea being to
furnish , work for one club year. The
outlines are on the following subjects:
Foods, textiles, civics, geography and his
tory of Nebraska, care and feeding of
children, . miscellaneous readings, and
how to organise and conduct a club.
Home economics extension workers have
come in contact with 4,tn women through
talks along various lines of club work
and have met 25,207 women In farmers'
Institutes and other similar meetings. The
total number of women In attendance at
all meetings during the year was 61,482.

The women's meetings of 1914 tnoluded
a greater variety of work than those
of a year ago. In the short course pro
grams, as in previous years, a major
portion of the time was devoted to a
study of foods. The care and feeding of
children, the preparation of balanced
meals, insects injurious to the house
hold, the selection of home furnishings,
and textiles and tests in buying have
been added. 1
The women's meetings at farmers' In
stitutes have beew largely la the nature
of cookery demonstrations or fooS

and the canning of garden vegetables and
fruits are lines of work that have been
emphasized. The home economlca work
