THE BEE: OMAHA. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 8 1917.
H. S. BOYS HAVE TOO
MUCH MONEY-M'KEE
Should Not Have Coin to Spend
For Theaters or to Take
Trip to Lincoln Ball
Games.
"You all know that the average high
school boy has too much money,"
said Paul H. McKee, state boys' work
secretary of the Young Men's Chris
tian association of Nebraska, in his
talk before the Superintendents' and
Principals' section of the Nebraska
State Teachers' association at the
Hotel Rome yesterday.
"The average high school boy here
in' Omaha,, and in many other parts,
of the state, has money enough in his
pocket to go to the theater any time
he wants to go, or to go to Lincoln
to attend a foot ball game. That is
not good for that boy. He has not
felt the pinch of sacrifice which he
should feel at this time, and which all
of us have to feel while the country
is'engaged in war. The b6ys must
have a share in the present crisis.
They must be given a part in the war
work campaign."
ne aavocaicu uiai mc uujj i
taught production, sacrifice and living.
(Must Find Useful Work.
Under the head of production, he
held that the boys must be helped to
find useful employment, productive
employment of one kind or another
during their spare time and during va
cations. "A mistaken notion has
gone forth that we advocate taking
the Doys out of. school and putting
them into productive work on the
farms. That is wrong," he said. "We
have advocated nothing of the kind.
It is hard enough to get boys into
high school at all. We do not advo
cate taking them 'out. They will need
all the brains they can develop there
for the great reconstruction to come
after the war. But what we do advo
cate is that their spare time and their
vacations be turned to production in
any one of the numerous lines."
Time for1 Sacrifice.
Under the head of sacrifice he ad
vocates that the boys Be taught that
this is a time of sacrifice and that
they cannot have everything they
want, that they must save some of
their monev and devote it to useful
service, such as the purchase of Lib
erty bonds, etc., instead of spending
it all on shows, foot ball games and
other frivolities.
Under the head of living he fcrged
that the boys be taught right living
and right ideals during the sus
ceptible age of the high school years,
and especially that these ideals be
held up before them in these times
when the father or older brother in
many cases has gone to war and left
the boy without any real steadying
masculine restraint at home.
President J. A. Woodward of Lin
coln, head of the Superintendents
and Principals' association, presided.

Little Girl Who Reads This!
These Rosy, Cheeked Baby Dolls Are for You
Dwellers At Colonial Flee From
fire Which Does Little Damage
Fire this morning starting near the
elevator shaft created much excite
ment at the Colonial apartments,
Thirty-eighth and Farnam streets, but
did little real damage.
At 10 a. m. a dining room girl
screamed "Fire!" Miss Hazel Gilbert,
telephone operator at the apartments,
immediately turned in the alarm to
the tire department. Then she threw
open every telephone circuit in the
building in an effort to arouse every
tenant. She was carried fainting from
the smoke-filled hall of flic building.
Mrs. L. A. Burgess, mother of
Ward Burgess of the Burgess-Nash
company, was ill in an upstairs apart
ment, and was carried to safety by
Lillian Wilkinson, 263.1 Patrick ave
nue, colored maid.
Society omen descending shaking
la.lders, garments flung hastily from
upstairs windows and the din and
clang of the fire departments added
to the excitement and thrilled the
spectators.
Mrs. Ib Y. Cojk, who manages the
Colonial, descended to safety with a
pair of canary birds. Thf feathered
pets were taken to a nearby garage.
Mrs. Cayier, who dwells on the
fourth floor, found the doors on the
fire escape on that floor locked when
she attempted to escape. She was
aided to safety by her sister.
Mesdames M.vV. Porter, J. E. Da
vidson and J. E. Ludlow" also made
the trip down shaking ladders.
The fire started in the sub-cella
near an elevator shaft.

Brillhart Has Scheme to
Beat Kaiser's U-Boats
Jesse T. Brillhart, employed by the
Metropolitan Water board, has ap
plied Sot patents on a "barage screen
or camouflage," which , he declares
will obscure vessels at sea, making
.them immune from German U-boats.
The invention relates to a defensive
screen for sea-going vessels and has
for its object to provide a means for
obscuring the vijw of vessels at s$a,
the element causing obscuration and
having the same appearance as the
water.
The invention consists of the novel
construction, combination and ar
rangement of parts that" would over
an entire vessel.- Brillhart resides at
1332 South Twenty-first street.

Sparkling and vivacious merry,

are assured only by pure blood. If
only every man and woman could be
induced to adopt the morning inside
bath, what a gratifying change would
take place. Instead of the thousands

women and girls, with pasty or mud

should see a virile, optimistic throng
of rosy-cheeked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking
