MT LITTLE friend, HIM Allen, at
the Blouse Section of Benion &
Thorne's, Is alwaya m pleaaed
when ihe haa omethtnr new and
pretty to ahow ma. "These have Just
arrived," she exclaimed the other day
when I dropped In to see her, "and
aren't they lovely T" For effective sim
plicity they really were about the most
delightful blounes I've seen this tea
son. Handkerchief linen with many
fine tucks was the material ueedj, the
wide sailor collar, cuffs and sham
pockets were trimmed with broad bands
of lavender or blue linen and large,
pearl buttons slipped through button
holes bound with the color. When
Miss Allen told me these blouses were
only $3.95, I Just had to have one,
that's all! There's also a stunning one
with broad tucks collar and cuffs of
olid rose color for the same price.
Bpauleta are noted on the new
blouses.
THE) first of Hay brings many pleas
ant things and one of the happy
events Is Baby Show Week, for
which occasion you'll want that darl
ing Infant of yours dressed up In the
sweetest of raiment possible. At
Thompson-Bel den's I saw little organdy
and mull bonnets that were miracles "
of daintiness with their fine lace trlm
' minus, tiny tatted edges In color, feath
erstitch Ing and bits of colored French
embroidery. No article of Baby's out
. fit so fascinating as the dresses, and
you'll find many lovely Imported hand
made slips thnre. Long kimonos, silk
lined for warmth and cunning kimo
no sacks of crepe de chine, cashmere
and batiste, beautifully embroidered
In the true baby colors, pink and blue,
A top-coat of pearly white crepe de
chme with smocking to form a yoke, .
In Its becoming softness should be, as
; someone said, "worth It's weight in
gold, if you count the cuddllnga it
Invites." ,
Hllltary trimmings are centering In
the limelight now,

DISCOVERED! Th most truly Ideal
spot on which to build a home.
Last Friday being such a perfect
Spring day for a stroll, a friend and I !
wandered out near beautiful Mercer
Park. The birds were winging in the
tree tops, singing merrily- a group of
children happily playing In the park
across the street "This Is my Idea of
a location for a REAL home' enthu
siastically exclaimed my friend. "Let's
ask about It." On inquiry we found a
ft -foot lot on the east fronting the i
' park (the only one, In fact, left for
ale). -If you're looking for a charming
place on which to build a home, W.
Farnam Smith, 1JI0 Farnam St., will
give yea) full particulars.

as an "aide" an English gardener whom
Lee Larmon, the Fontenelle Florist, has
engaged to assist Spring in her mis

with beds of bright geraniums, salvias
and cannas or a -border around the
place of roses. He'll plant trailing
vines to screen the porches and ar

blossoms and long, drooping ferns.

IRRESISTIBLE, Indeed, are the new

LIFE la such a Joyous thing when
you are only fourteen and can
have pretty frocks to wear. If
Father and Mother are planning to
take you to one of the Country Club
openings do Insist that the frock for
the occasion be bought at F. W, Thome's
Uptown Shop, 1812 Farnam St. (for
merly A. T. Benson's Specialty Shop),
for they do have such lovely things
for the "Jeune ft lie" there. I saw a
real "picture-book" little frock of
whispering white taffeta fashioned
quaintly with three-tier skirt, each tier
cut with wide scallops and finished
with tiny two-fold ribbon ruffles. Sweet
little rosebuds peeped coyly here and
there from among the ruffles on the
skirt and baby waist, Altogether It
had such an artful, demure look that
I was reminded of a little miniature
of my grandmother at "Sweet Sixteen"
painted during the '&0s.

find identically the same gifts she had
secured in Chlna and Japan, actually
cheaper than she had bought them
there. X discovered something in this
shop this week that I want to tell
you about. Teacups with lids to keep

MT VISIT to The Ideal Button and

was such a pleasant one, for I
found them established In the Brown
Block and the busy army of workers
seemed so happy In their sunny new
quarters. The young man from War
saw I told you about last woek. who
Is the embroidery expert, was embroid
ering an Intricate and exquisite pat
, tern on a pearl gray Georgette day
time frock for one of our prominent
society brides. It was so perfectly
done that no one would ever dream
It was other than fine hand-work. For
the attractive touches that add so
much to the appearance of a gown I
certainly recommend the work of "The
Ideal."

IF TOU are a man or a woman seek

really beach robes, but equally as
good for home wear, made of light

blue or lavender o ft ratines In lovely

There are slippers to match the robes.

RED CROSS work, suffrage or
prohibition state victories,
club politics, high cost of liv
ing which delights or dis
tresses clubwomen most it would be
hard to state. That each and all oc
cupy her time and efforts fully will
be conceded without a murmur.
A review of the last week's activi
ties along these lines will find the
local Red Cross chapter and the Na
tional League for Woman Service re
markably well organized for its scant
two weeks' existence, in the doing of
which Red Cross officials are taking
pains to make it clear to volunteers
that Red Cross services does not
mean service away from home. The
doctors and nurses who comprise
the professional organization of the
Red Cross are detailed for service
wjth the fighting forces and are sub
ject to the military laws and dis
oipline. But the civilian volunteers,
men and women whom the Red Cross
needs in great numbers now, remain
at their homes taking charge of the
collection and transportation of sup
plies and the manufacture of great
quantities of bandages and garments
by home needlework. Neither mem
bership in the Red Cross nor enroll
ment in its auxiliary services places
any compulsion upon the volunteer of
any kind whatsoever.
Passage of the prohibition bill is of
course "old stuff," but that mitigating
amendments to the law failed of
passage caused much Celebration in
women's temperance organizations.
The partial suffrage victory was not
so, safely assured, in fact great sur
prise was expressed on every hand
when the bill passed the senate com
mittee so favorably.
What effect this will have on the
proposition to submit the constitu
tional amendment for suffrage in the
fall will be watched with interest.
New sets of officers in most of the
women's clubs and never-ending dis
cussions of food, clothing and health
conservation were general through,
out the week.
One week more of activity and the
Omaha Woman's club will have closed
its twenty-fourth year at the high
tide of its membership. To celebrate
its birthday Tuesday a musicale-tea

Dual Role That Gives ,
Miss Phillips Fine Chance
Reads queer but it's a fact that
Dorothy Phillips in. "The Girl in the
Checkered Coat" at the Hipp theater
today and Monday, will meet herself
face t facti converse with herself,
draw herself from one room to an
other, and, finally, leans over the
backof a chair in which she is herself
seated and gives herself a "laying
out" for the misdeeds of her old self.
All this because Miss Phillips plays a
dual role two girls entirely different
in natures and unlike in personal ap
pearance. And the tangle into which
these two sisters get the plot provides
gripping entertainment vuntil the
"happy ending" is duly consummated.

"Butterfly" Pictures Will Be ;
Before the Public Hereafter
A new brand of feature photoplay!
are to'be offered to movie fans and
are being released through Laemmlc ,
exchanges under the name of "But
terfly" pictures. They will be five
reels in length, and will be produced
by the Universal Film Manufacturing
company at their studios in Califor
nia. It is the intention of the Uni
versal officials to present only the
highest type of photo-drama under
the new Butterfly trademark. The
stories for these productions will be
by noted authors and scenario writers
entirely. The casts for the pictures
will be selected with unusual care for
the fitness of the actors assigned to
portray roles which they interpret,
and the pictures wilt be directed by
leaders in this branch of the film pro
fession. Mr. F. A. Van Husan, local
manager, has viewed the first few and
pronounces them "great." Only the
first three have as yet been an
nounced and they are Douglas Ger
rard and Ruth Clifford in "Eternal
Love," for release May 7; Mignon An
derson, Hayward Mack and Molly
Malone in "The Phantom Secret," for
release May 14, and Herbert Rawlin
son and Neva Gerber in "Like Wild
fire," for release May 21. This com
pany has also an innovation in the
silent drama that wilt soon be in evi
dence and that will be "Song Hits in
Photoplay." The idea is almost self
explanatory, being to put picture! to
music that has become popular, and
of course will be accompanied by
music as well as a singer of ability.
The first will, be "The Road That
Leads to Love," written by Irving
Berlin, and the next will be what do
you think? Why, "Yaaka Hula Hickey
Dula." Mr. Van Husan announces
that a trial haa been made of this
plan in several cities and has met with
instant success.
