Ever and anon in these warlike times we hear of a young man whose desire to be of service to his country is strengthened by the example of pa triotic forbears. With a little inves tigation these examples multiply. If one could give an indefinite time to searching the records of all the young soldiers, sailors and airmen who have offered their services in Omaha he would doubtless find many descend ants of the heroes of other wars or of our sturdy Pilgrim fathers. The lists of the, daughters and sons of the American revolution1 contain the names of many of these Omaha boys, but others who proudly trace their ancestry back to some of history's bravest soldiers are not to, be found there. A member of the family in each war which has engaged the peo ple of the United States is the record of some of the present volunteers. How could they do else than follow the example of their ancestors? Phillip and Roger McCullough of the signal corps, sons of Mr. and Mrs. T. VV. McCullough, have a rec ord of officer ancestors in Washing ton's army which would majce any young man rally to the flag. Cuth bert and Cedric Potter, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Potter, are descend ants from the colonial governors and one of their grandsires, Dr. John An drews, was a surgeon for seven years in the revolutionary army. Major' Roger Howard Williams, son of Mrs. Elizabeth Williams, as his name indicates, is descended from the line of colonial governors. He has had. a career in the regular army and was one of the first Omaha boys to be of service in- the present war. Dr. B. C. Russum, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Russum, who is waiting an appointment in the medical reserve corps, traces his ancestry back to rev lutionary soldiers. Dr. Russum, who has been completing his medical course at interne irf a Brooklyn hos pital, arrived in Omaha Monday for B suuil visit Willi ma paikina utiuic being called to service. Captain Robert Burns traces his ancestry back to the revolution. Gil bert Stubbs, son of Mrs. J. J. Stubbs of Omaha, is another son of the revo lution who has offered i his services to the country. He is now in. New York awaiting call. Mrs. J. B. Ad ams and Mrs. F. C. Timm are Daugh ters of the American revolution whose sons are serving their country in the., present war. ' . '. The two sons of Mrs. Nancy J. Moore, Claire and Wendell, come from good colonial stock. John Han cock and John Quincy Adams were their progenitors and every genera tion of the family has had some rep resentative in West Point. Captain James Prentice at the Fort Omaha balloon school is a cousin of Mrs. Moore- Brigadier General .Jimory Upton is a great uncle of the two boys; another relative, Roy Upton, is now fighting in France and they are also, related to General Cadwallader, who is with the troops at the front. Wedding Announcement. At the home ofMr.and Mrs. Jud son Van Dorn, Wednesday evening, Mr. Harojd R. Sozier of Omaha and Miss Ethel D.ickerson of Guide Rock, Neb., were, united in marriage by the Rev. C. N. Dawson, in the presence of the relatives. Their home will be at 2416 Fowlerv avenue. Fof Brides-to-Be.

Thursday morning a group of. healthy, happy girls returned to their homes in Omaha from a summer spent at Camp Michigamme, in north ern .Michigan. There they have tramped, done handicraft work, en joyed water sports and any number of other entrancing things which only a group of girls living- in the great outdoors have the freedom to do. At one time the entire camp, about sixty girls in canoes, took a three-day trip to Pequaming on Lake Superior. Ihe greater number of girls came from the middle west, one was from Kentucky-, many were from Ohio, Chicago, Kansas City, and six were from Omaha. The latter two groups tented together and were especially friendly. Miss Helen Eastman has gone to the camp for a ten-day post season stay before she resumes her art work in Chicago. Ihe girls who came home yester day were: Misses Misses rHelen Stenger, Virginia Barker, Marjcrla lUbbel, Mario Ncvtlloi Women Golfers Bring Trophies. .

Howevor, much more you care for this boy, you must hesitate to take him from tho other girl, who probably cares, too. For the present I think you may dismiss- that phase of the situation from your mind and think only of the old friendship, of the fact that tho boy's father, who Is fond Of you. is dying. An offer of sympathy is almost required from you. To fall to make it would mean to show an ugly, cold and ..ifih indifference. Write him a friendly letter, telling him how deeply y.iu, who I have seen a beloved father sU U and puf- j ferlnr. sympathise with him now and how i happy you would be if it were in your power to help an old friend In time of trouble.

No man who really oared for you would suggest such a thing unless he were so youjig that he did not rcallxe the enor mity of what he was asking.
