women's department of ( the
State Council of Defense,
Nebraska women will be thoroughly
co-ordinated, correlated, consolidated

ability, American women have rallied
loyally to the cause.
When diplomatic relations were
broken off with Germany and co-op-
erauon or. women worxers Became ap
parent it was first felt that the Red
Cross offered sufficient avenues of ac-
tivity for all the women in the coun-
try.
Then when the draft law seemed
likely to pass and the ranks of busi-
hess firms were depleted by large
numbers ot men who rallied to the,
colors the demand came for some I
means of registering women for serv-
ice to replace the men.
The National League for Woman
Service came into existence with
Miss Maude Wetmore of Rhode Isl-
and as. national nresident and Anne
Morgan of New York as national sec-
retarv ivith the nhiprt of mobilizing
every woman in America into one
organization for war-time service, gma, American Art, by Prot. W. H
Hence the work of the league has Holmes, curator of the national gal
k.n h neUtntlnti nf unmen for lery of art in Washington, D. C
naid as well as voluntary service, be-
coming virtually a patriotic employ

ment bureau.
Then came . the women's depart
ment of the National Council of De
fense, with much the same purpose.
People began to think that there was
to be a duplication of effort and that
one of the organizations was surcto
eclios
se the other. Finally it was de-
cided that the Council of Defense was
to act as a clearing house for all
6rganizations which would continue
to work independently and preserve
their identity.
Now the National League for
Woman Service- ha3 volunteered to
co-operate with the Council of De
fense m enrolling women tor serv
ice. In a short tune 500 Omaha
women will pledge themselves to co-
operate in the looa conservation pian
of Herbert Hoover through the
Woman Service league.

ODD FELLOWS HAVE
BIG WARPROBLEMS
Sovereign Grand Lodge Will
Aid Wounded Members and
Care for Dependents of
Men. Who Enlist.
Louisville, Ky., July 7. Provision
for the care of members of the order
who may be injured at the front after
the American army lands in France
and the care and maintenance of their
dependents at home will engage the
attention of the soverign grand lodge
at its annual convention in Louisville
next September, according to a state
ment of Grand Sire Frank C. Goudy
of Denver, issued through the local
committee on arrangements.
The head of the order dwells upon
the importance of the meeting to Odd
rellows, points out that transporta
tion companies can handle the ex
pected 5,000 delegates and, apparently
to correct any misunderstanding,
makes the definite statement the con
vention will be held.
"Never in the history of the order,"
the statement recites, "was there so
much depending upon the assembling
of American' and Canadian Odd Fel
lowship in annual convention. In ad
dition to transacting 'ordinary busi
ness that will come before the sov
ereign grand lodge, there will be i
large volume of work to be done by
our order acting in co-operation with
the Red Cross and like associations
in furnishing relief to all who may be
subjected to the horrors of this war.
"The fact that Odd Fellows will
soon go to the front in protection of
home and of civil and religious lib
erty makes it our highest duty to pro
vide for them when injured in battle,
failing in health or otherwise requir
ing the fraternal and helpful care of
our fraternity, the protection of our
widows and orphans at this time
more essential than ever, so the du
ties devolving upon us relatively are
greater.
"In view of existing conditions it is
most imperative that the sovereign
grand lodge meet .this year for legis
lation on important matters that will
confront us. Over $500,000 was con
tributed to the relief of brethren dur
ing the last year, and with the world's
calamity forced upon America the
succor to be extended during the war
will run into great figures.
"In view of the fact that transpor
tation companies will not be largely
occupied in handling troops, war ma
terial and supplies in the early part
of October, when the cantonments
will open, the sovereign grand lodge
will hold its session at Louisville, Ky.,
September 17-22, as originally
scheduled."
Missouri Takes New Shift;
Danger to Decatur Is Past
"Since I moved my elevator back
from the river the old river has made
a sudden shift," said Hugh Gallup
of Decatur when in Omaha yesterday.
The river is now cutting less on the
Decatur side, but is cutting more on
the Iowa side at present. Decatur
people feel now that any occasion for
alarm is past.
"I have been watching the old site
of my elevator. The river has not
yet cut it away, but I am sure if I
had left the elevator standing there
the whole thing would have been
gone by this time."
The cutting of the banks on the
Iowa side of the stream is occasion
ing no danger, it is said, since there
is no town in the immediate vicinity
on that side. The river has made, a
sudden shift and a shift that is very
welcome to the Decatur people.

An Art Treat for Omaha
By LETA MOORE MEYER.
The people of Omaha have a rare
opportunity of seeing very fine works
of art as well as what are probably
the greatest cartoons in existence at
the exhibition of the work of the
Dutch artist, Louis Raemaekers,
shown last week and this week in the
room adjoining the recruiting office.
The exhibit is sponsored entirely by
Miss Gertrude Young and in my
opinion is the highest art ever shown
in Omaha.
The work of Raemaekers is notable
for two distinct qualities, each impos
sible without the other. He hu
visualizjd most graphically the hor
rors of the great war, the details and
arguments used in its justification, the
spirit of the Germans, and, most of
all, the "frightfulness" of a despotic
form of government. He also shows
in a general way the terrible suffer
ing of all war. Although he depicts
here the most horrible things any art
ist has ever been known to express,
still he seems to rise above all na
tionality and partisanship to an al
most Christ-like pity for his enemies.
As MisYoung says, "He really seems
to pity the kaiser." He shows him a
worn, shrunken old man, ready for
breakfast, saying: "I had such a de
lightful dream that the whole thing
was not true."
The second element of his work is
the great art of it. His subjects alone
would matter little if they were bun
gled in the telling. Bernard Shaw

has said: "Any fool can make men
laugh, but I am a genius if I can make
them weep." Here we have the proof,
for I cannot imagine anyone looking
through ten of these pictures without
at least having to control a desire to
weep. They are wonderful works of
art technically. They are fine in
composition, in unity, in conception,
and the fine color betrays the fact
that Raemaekers was a painter be
fore he became a cartoonist. But
they are especially tine in that great
est quality in all art and the founda
tion of all great art, sincerity. He
is so sincere and he feels so strongly
the things he depicts that we know
he must have forgotteri all about
technique and thereby achieved the
greatest technique of all that is, the
unconscious. Therefore, he has ex
pressed the things he so sincerely
felt, with tremendous strength. He
shows a most masterly control of his
mediums. His draftsmanship has sel
dom been surpassed by any artist.
In No. 14, "The Braggart," the draw
ing of the head ' nd the right arm and
hand almost approach the drawing
of the great master. Ingres. And
there is much more drawing equally
fine.
It is rather difficult to think purely
of the art in these things which deal
with such horrible subjects. 1 con
fess that for the first time in my
life the subjects in this work spoil
the art for me. But purely as art I
think the finest thing there is No.

30. "The Marshes of Pinsk." The
Kaiser: 'When the Leave Fall
You'll Have Peace. They Have." It
shows the marsh in autumn with
beautiful overhanging trees,- lovely in
color and composition, a beautiful
picture. But when we look closer we
see that the marsh is a seething mass
of dead bodies. In No. 36, "Gassed,"
the crayon has been used to look
very much like an etching. This is
one of the most beautiful of the col
lection, it depicts two men in the hos
pital writhing in delirium, while a
nurse turns away in horror and a sol
dier stands stolidly with the endur
ance of those who must do the work
of war. This one reminds one
strongly of Whistler's picture, "The
Convalescent," only I think this is
finer. This etching quality is found
in several of the cartoons such as
Nos. 103, 32. 65, 101 and 110. This
ability to use crayon like etching is
unusual and is possessed by few ar
tists. A very beautiful landscape is No.
16, "The Yse r. We are on Our Way
to Calais." This represents a flooded
section with a few houses and other
things which prove to be bodies, float
ing around, but it is mostly water. Al
though only a few lines indicate that
it is water, the feeling that it is water
and is muddy and hardly moving, if
at all, is wonderfully expressed. One
must look very close at this to see
that it is not an etching. All of the
cartoons are in crayon and the col
ored ones have water color added.
The three cartoons, "The Mothers
of Belgium," "The Widows of Rcl
gium," and "The Children of Bel
gium," could hardly express the suf

tcr. The feeling of aimless, heart
sick wandering is shown in the last
one and the handling of masses is
very fine. No. 9, "It's Fattening
Work," which represents the kaiser
enormously fat and harpy, is masterly
in the unity of its masses. It reminds
one of a Velasquez, similar in subject
and handling, in the Kaiser Friedrich
museum in Berlin. The painting qual
ity is also very noteworthy in Nos.
13, 22. 26. 45, 47, 53 and 64, which are.
all very fine examples of the artisfs
work.
Raemakers has achieved what has
always been considered by artists im
possible, the introduction of true art
into illustrating and cartoon work.
He takes his place from sheer merit
among the immortals where he must
forever remain. It is a great pleasure
to those who have the cause of art
at heart to know that, contrary to
popular opinion, he has received rec
ognition immediately and to the ends
of the earth. France has decorated
him with the Cross of the Legion of
Honor, the greatest distinction she
has to bestow, and the Sorbonne,
which is the University of France, has
signally honored him. His work is
known the world over and has been
translated into twenty different lan
guages. Germany has said that her object
in this war is to spread her wonderful
"Kultur." As all wars, no matter how
terrible, have produced and made
great men, so Raemakers is undoubt-
cuiy ittc prouuti oi ine suncrmg he
has seen all about him. Now Ger
many has put a price on this artist's
head.
