THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY,. MAY 2, 1917. Who Are the Queem of May? Mav ' dav. which comei only once t year,, has come to Omaha today. in some ways, at you no doubt know, thii is. a memorable May day. Our bibulous friends have reason to re member i. because in the language J. r.t cartoonists the camel has been crowned queen of the May. At the state university, where young people do congregate, they are crown ing a May queen today and it is said in all good faith thatan Omaha girl, Miss Olive Lehmer, who recently won Phi Beta Kappa honors, has been chosen for that joyous honor. ' Omaha society has been altogether too busy with its war relief work to think of choosing a May queen. Who ahould it be. do you think? In view of the fact that Mrs. George Brandeis has sponsored the biggest May day party, the first large Red Cross ball to be given in Omaha, let us cast our ballot for that charming matron as oueen of the May. , ' " '.' All the little folks are planning their May baskets today. Don't you re member how in the dear dead days beyond you, too, made May baskets and at dusk ran to hang them on the doors of your dearest friends. Each young man will, figuratively speak ing, crown his queen of May today, for bouquets are going out from all the florists' shops to the best loved lassie of each young laddie. Prettiest Mile Woman's Golf club five a large May breakfast at the lackstone today, the only party which was purely and simply a May day party.

In the center of the dining table a mound of south ern smilax and red roses will encircle a May pole of red, white and blue stick candy. Red, white and blue streamers will extend to a dozen lit tle May maidens garbed in red, white and blue, who are dancing around the May pole. At the place of each feminine guest will be a tiny May bas ket filled with spring flowers with tiny American flags on top. Each gentleman will have at his place a candy American flag.

NO WASTING 'OF WOBDS (Corre-ipondatice of Tba Asaocl&tad Prcaa.) Paris, April 17. The courage, the joyousness of France, has been the aspect of the war most remarked by Jesse Benedict Carter, director of the American Academy of Rome, who has been visiting provincial universities in France aa lecturer for the Hyde Foundation, v . . "Nowhere have I found any lack of courage, any lack of joy, and lack of willingness to work for victory," said Mr. Carter. "The joyousness of France in this moment of crisis is not the superficial thoughtlessness of those who are atraid to think. It is the calm happiness of those who cannot fail and who know that they cannot fail because they are seeking after those things which are not of the earth and must therefore con tinue for that very reason, because, without them, the earth would be comeV a madhouse. The greatest things are always simple and the French today are simple as Abraham Lincoln was in Our civil war. "There is no hatred even for the German, there is instinctive abhor ence, but no wasting of words over symptoms and acts which belong to the realm of pathological psychology. Common decency draws a veil over tbese things and leaves them to the fihysician who at the end will doubt ess write the verdict and give his full skill to drawing up 'the post-mortem;' meantime it is day and we must work in the day, while our strength and our courage is with us. "Of .course, there is a natural ob jectivity about any people engaged in a great work. They forget them selves in the enormous importance of what they are doing. This is na ture's anaesthetic. "In a smalt village I was .in the mayor's office looking at the notices on the walls. I observed two sheets of paper containing the various cita tions of a young man who had been mentioned in September, 1914, and several times thereafter, receiving the Croix de Guerre and finally dying heorically in October," 1916. I said to the mayor: 'What a beautiful ca reer! Did you'. know this boy?' The answer came perfectly calmly, accomplished by a smite of deep ap preciation: 'He was my son. He was a brave boy, and only twenty.' Mothers' Congress is For National Prohibition Washington, . May 1. National prohibition was advocated by the Na tional Congress of Mothers today.

The National Consumer? , League. When the invention of machinery began to take out of our homes many industries, it took away from our per sonal contact the workers who made the things we use. It also took away from us opportunity of knowing first hand the kind of things we use. In brief, a wall was set up between the two great world problems, the Pro duction, or making of things, and the Consumption, or using of things. If one stops to think, it becomes clear that in normal times at least, the .vast bulk of what is produced in the world is used in the homes ot the world. Hence women are the consumers of the world in so far, as fhey have the larger part of the administration of the homes of the world. Over in England some twenty-five years ago, and here in America a year later, groups of- people became aware of the increasing gulf between the maker and the user. 1 he user or purchasers tries to get her "money's worth" of what she is buying; but feels no interest in the problem be yond that point. These groups of people who were interested in the worker felt that Mrs. Smith or Mrs. Jones or Mrs. Brown, who buys a waist or a suit or a dress as cheaply as she can, has no right to buy that article if it is cheap, because the worker who made it worked in an unsanitary room with inadequate wages. In other words, our responsi bility does not stop with getting value received, it goes back to the making of the garment. These interested people, headed by Mrs.- Florence Kelly in the United States, united un der the name of the National Con sumers' league. The Consumers' league has as its general interest the bettering of all working conditions both in factories and retail trades. They have for their special ten-year program, as outlined by Mrs. Kelly two years ago, the study of the labor turnover, or chang ing of positions in industry, with a view to reducing the turnover; the minumum wage; the short working day, and longer education of the young worker. Most large cities have local branches which study special trade and factory conditions in the locality, for instance the Saturday half holi day in summer, sanitary conditions in local stores, etc. Omaha has no lo cal branch, though there was one for a short time. The National league turned its at tention first to the white, goods trade, for in that industry were bad condi tions of sanitation and low wages. Its method is very simple; at the invita tion of a manufacturer the league in vestigates the condition of the factory, its hours of work, its payroll and the ages of its workers (no child labor- is tolerated). If the factory meets every requirement the firm is entitled to mark all of its goods with the Consumers' league label. The la bel is printed on a bit of tape usually and sewed onto the garment. It may be recognized easily; it consists of a circle with a short broad wedge at tached at either side. In the circle are the words, "National Consumers' League, Official Label, Registered"; in the right hand wedge, "Use of La bel Authorized After Investigation"; in the left hand wedge, "Made Under Clean and Healthful Conditions." Several Omaha firms carry white goods bearing the label, so tar as 1 know, only white goods or undergar ments carry the label.. If the league has been of benefit to the industrial worker in the twenty five odd years of its existence as it undoubtedly has, it has also served the manufacturer and the general public. The honest manufacturer, who wanted to put out a decent product, made by people who were paid a living wage, has been aided in finding a market for his article, for there are a few people, pitifully few, who buy Consumers League products wherever possible. The general public has been helped, for a better product means a safer product. No matter how calloused some of us .mav be to th "other fel low," we scarcely relish wearing the products of sweat shop labor. I have Deen told, mat at one time most of the evening cloaks' made in Chicaeo had to go through the hands of a dry cleaner before they could be sold, for they were made under such unspeak ably filthy conditions that the light fabrics were, always spotted in the making. It is sometimes difficult to know what to do even if one has the honest desire .to buy onlv roods from reputable firms. The range of labelled garments is so small; and there is no local branch to undertake special in vestigations. Certain thing's mav be done, however. Omaha is not so large our wnat we may nave personal knowledge of our retail firms; and it is fairly safe to say that a reliable firm will not handle goods put out under Amazing Power To Make Doctor Says It Strengthens Eyesight 50 per cent in One Week's Time in Many Instances A Freo PreeeriHtos) To Caa Have) Filled . aad Us aft Bams. ... .

Saturday night closing is a reform that Omaha needs sadly; for stores open on Saturday night is a mark of provincialism that most cities of our size have sloughed off. If women would not buy on Sat urday nights, the stores would not be open. Women who are not occupied outside the home should do their shop ping as early as possible, early in the day, and early in the week. Though we have ' no local branch of the league, we can buy labelled gar ments wherever possible; and one can become a member of the National League. I once heard Miss Addams say in regard to joining the league land furthering its work, that to her it was an antidote to tne teenng ot discomfort in regard to labor condi tions. : Tested Recipes ONION SAVORY. .. 4 onions.
