HISTORY OF DANCE
GIVEN FORTEAGHERS
entertainment by Publicity De
' partment of Commercial Club
Closing Feature of Three
Days Session.
The 52d annual session of the Ne
braska State Teachers' association
passed pleasantly into history last
night at the Auditorium, where a
splendid aesthetic dance feature was
piesented by Portia Mansfield Swett
of Chicago and her outdoor dancers
in a repertoire of numbers offered un
der the title of "The Dance of the
ArH
This pretentious entertainment fea
ture was given under the auspices of
the publicity bureau of the Commer
cial club ot Omaha. V. F. Baxter,
chairman of the bureau, thanked the
for cominir to Omaha, ex
pressed the hope that they had an
enjoyable and profitable meeting here
and hoped that tney win ravor unwind
in the years to come with their pres
ence. The total registration was an
nounced as 3,614.
Welcomed Back to Omaha.
"It is pleasure, indeed, to have
you with us and Omaha welcomes
you back next year. We are always
at your service," said Mr. Baxter.
He announced a forthcoming state
wide campaign in behalf of the suffer
ing Armenians.
The Auditorium was well filled with
teachers when the curtain was raised
on the first number ot tne aance pro
gram. Throughout the evening the
Swett dancers were greeted with
hearty applause, the teachers appre
ciating the talented young women
and their graceful terpsichorean pre
sentations. , ,
The program was a history of the
development of the dance through
'3,000 years. The first number was a
sun worship dance of ancient Egypt,
showing a Nile maiden and slave.
The angular effects of that dance were
taken from the Egyptian art as por
trayed on pottery. Next m order
were dances from Arabia. Persia, an
cient Greece, ancient Carthage, KomCj
"Europe Before the Renaissance,
"Discovery of America," "Rise and
Heydey of the Ballet," ?Reviva
Classic Dancing" "Russian Ballet
and "Tumult of the Elements.
The concluding dance number
showed the introduction of dancing
in schools and a patriotic ensemble
by Omaha school children, under the
direction of Miss Pleasant ilolyoke,
followed by "America," sung: by the
audience and led by Mrs. Hazel
Smith Eldridge, who sang several
numbers during the evening. Mrs.
Eldridge'a linging won genuine ap
probation. The children taking part in the pa
triotic ensemble were Katherme For-

OFFICER SAVES
THEATER CROWD
FROM STAMPEDE
Fire which started in the operating
room of the Park theater, 516 North
Sixteenth street, last night during a
show and enveloped the lobby of the
building, caused a near panic among
the spectators who rushed toward
the exits in an attempt to get out.
Timely arrival of Officer Whelan,
who held back anxious parents when
they sought to invade the theater to
safeguard their children, probably
prevented many people, mostly chil
dren, from receiving injuries in a
stamnede.
Firemen extinguished the blaze
with chemical apparatus. Little dam
age was done.
U. S. Aircraft Production
Enormous; Can Be Doubled
Washington, Nov. 10. Aircraft
production in American factories is
developing at such a rate that it was
said todav the present program of
22,000 planes and 50,000 motors by
July 1, can be Woubled in the last
six months of -next year if the needs
of the army demand it.
Consideration isVbeing given to the
substitution of metal tubing for
spruce wood in American airplane
manufacture, althouRh the change may
be unnecessary because the spruce
supply which was interrupted by labor
troubles in the northwest now is al
most normal. The French are using
an alloy tubing for their planes
frames.
Many Changes to Be Made '

Quickly Learn the Lessons
in Efficiency and Organization.
"1 have never seen so many over
taxed, excited, nervous women in my
life as since our country entered the
war," asserted Mrs. Anthony French
Merrill, Chicago, in a lecture jester
day on "Living in War Times."
"There are two kinds of women.
One is the kind that gives unselfishly
of herself to a cause in which she be
lieves. The other is the frivolous
woman who sits at home and gives
nothing. The first may render her-
r!f of as little use as the second if
she does not save herself and direct
her energies wisely and efficiently.
these days when we are seek
avoid waste we must learn not
ste ourselves.
"We women engaged in war work
and ' are in an absolutely new task. And
the first lesson we must learn is that
of efficiency, organization and disci
pline. We have been learning this
lesson marvelo.isly since Inst ?prin
A vast number of American women
had been living the 'padded life.' i i:ey
had nothing to do. There is a definite
task in hand now. The light minded
women must be awakened. They must
forsake their careless ways and they
must submit to discipline. They must i
do what they promise. They must be
dependable."
The proceeds of the lecture will be i
donated to the soldiers' Christmas
jacket fund.

Like Patriotic Ensemble,
The dance numbers were all so
heartily appreciated that it would be
difficult to say which deserved men
tion, but the "Saturnalia" of. the Ro
man period won particularjavor. The
French valse and Spanish street ecene
showed the resul of Miss Swett a
careful training. The rhythm was
faultless and the costumes wefe a(L
that could be desired.
The patriotic ensemble by local
school children touched a responsive
chord and was a tribute to Miss Holy
oke. ' "Spring's Awakening" and
Mendelssohn' "Spring-Song." a in
troduced by Isadora Duncan, were
sufficient to place Miss Swett in the
front ranks as an exponent of the best
in dancing. i
. Expressions of Thanks.
The music was furnished by Mis
Eloise West, director; Miss Hazel
O'Connor, piano, and Grace Slabaugh,
violin. " ! '
The teachers were well leased with

Folks who are accustomed to feel

daisv bv orjeninsr tha sluices of the
system each morning and .flushing
out the whole of the internal poison
ous stagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, aick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to Wash from the
stomach, liver,, kidneys and bowels
the previoua day's indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary, canal before
putting more food into the -stomach.
The action of hot. water and limestone
Dhosnhate on an emntv atomach is
wonderfully invigorating. It cleans
out all the sour fermentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite or breakfast While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex
tracting a large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside

The millions of people who are
