When Buying Advertised Goods
Say You Read of Them in The Beer
Ask a Soldier for Thanksgiving Day.
Who wants a real live soldier? We
have them in all styles, types, sizes.
blondes, brunettes, six-footers and lit
tle sawed-off ones, any kind you pre
fer. Uf course, you can t have them
to keep, but you may hive as many
as you like on .thanksgiving day.
We are being submerged with invi
tations at The Bee office by the hos
pitable people of Omaha who want
some soldier boys to help them eat
turkey (it s 40 cents a pound, too).
Many people designate what kind of
a khaki-clad man they prefer. One
very well known musician in the city
asks that she be sent either former
newspaper scribes or soldiers who
enjoy music. Isn't that a good idea?
You see hey will have a mutaal in
terest and things will go so smoothly.
One little girl asks for a "nice look
ing brunette soldier," and we will do
our best to send her the brunetteiest
one we can find. i
New Jersey and Wisconsin men.
Chicago, Kansas City and Louisville,
Ky, men have been asked for. 1 he
Bee will do its best to connect the
right soldier with the right host and
hostess, monumental task though
it be.
Two boys from the country were
invited by one couple because they
would have such good appetites. I
trust that the rural lads will live up to
their reputation.
Not one hungry or lonely Sammy
in the Gate City on Thanksgiving day,
is our motto. Don't you think it a
good one?
If you do. fill out one of the blank
invitation slips printed in The Bee,
asking as many men as there is place
around your board.

When Milady Goes Shopping
There was a big sale the other day. I attend
ed. Did you? Judging from the crowd you
must have been.
ADELAIDE KENNERLY.
I might have known it I And yet
I deceived myself by telling "me" that
I would go to the blouse sale so
very early that the sales girls would
not all have arrived.
Advertised? Oh, yesi Advertised
in the newspapers and displayed in
the wtndows of one of Omaha's re
tail establishments. And this adver
tising spread the germs of thrift in
to every corner of the city.
Eight-thirty a. m., and not a min
ute later, found me sailing up to the
counters-and-counters of beautiful
crepe and silk waists and blouses
(pardon, but the waists are under $5
hlouses over), where I had fully ex
pected to select the loveliest blouse
in the lot for the least money, while
some energetic sales-person removed
two hatpins and a slip-over veil.
But, alas I How many dreams go
wrong I How many discords mar the
song!
When I entered the blouse section
there stood a mass of seething hu
manityfeminine humanity pushing,
rushing, grabbing and nabbing, col
lecting and selecting blouses' already
jtamped on 4heir memory from read
ing the ads and gazing longingly in
to the window display.
They seemed to be posted on val
ues and prices. I was amazed at
the aaneness of that crowd. There
were "beg pardons," "excuse mes,"
and "awfully sorries" sprinkled about
which made life more "bearable, while
we tried to stretch our dollars, but
no one was dismayed or discouraged.
"Cash and carry" seemed to pre
vail. Only a few stood back with
lorgnette and swathing furs, and or
dered their purchases sent home.
These women fitted and matched
and examined. It seemed that each
one had a waist in mind and each
one found it there.
Really a bargain? Yes, indeed I I
am sure of that. Blouses at $7.50 the
day before became waists on this sale
morning at $4.95, a,.saving of $2.55.
Isn't that worth scrambing for?
Any sensible woman, any woman
with a spark of patriotism who ex
erts herself to keep up a standard of
the sleave above the wrist. A deep
border of charmeuse finishes the skirt.
Blue braiding is also employed on this
border. A touch of white charmeuse
across the neck aftd on collar and
cuffs completes this very unusual
frock.
WHAT
America Must
In the Face of Russian Anarchy
and Italian Reverses
Germany will be defeated byFrance, Great Britain and the United States, and at the
last, the lion's share of the task will belong to the United States. This opinion, advanced by
many competent observers since Russia's lapse into anarchy and Italy's staggering reverses, is
accepted by our press in all parts of the land in a spirit of quiet and unfaltering resolution.
"We have drawn the sword and we might as well .throw away the scabbard," exclaims the Chi
cago Herald, "for it is to be a fight to a finish and German successes in Russia and Italy indi
cate that the struggle may be prolonged."
The only German drive that the Allies have reason really to fear, many of our papers de
clare, is the coming drive for peace terms that will leave Germany secure in the possession of
her present absolute control over middle Europe, and which will doubtless find expression
through various pacifist outlets in America. "What I am opposed to is not the feeling of the pac
ifists,' says President Wilson, "but their stupidity. My heart is with them, but my mind has a
contempt for them. I want peace, but I know how to get it and they do not."
The leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for November 24th, deals with the pres
ent war crisis and it throws a flood of light upon the subject that is stirring the soul of America.

I
From the steaming jungles of Senegal, the fer

Japan, the teak forests of Burma, the coco-palms
of Hawaii, the blue-gum groves of Australia and
the far-flung acres of Saskatchewan, a single -mail
recently brought to the editors of THE LITER
ARY DIGEST a sheaf of letters telling of the writ
ers gratitude for the opportunity afforded by this
most comprehensive of news-recorders of keeping
posted" on all the great events of the day. Other
letters tell how it keeps the prospectors in a far
western mining-camp in touch with the world's af
fairs and how it is passed eagerly from hand to
hand by the "Tommies" and "Sammies" in! the
trenches on the Somme. Wherever men gather to
gether it is read from cover to cover for its crisp,
condensed, and wholly impartial summaries of
current happenings. It is cosmopolitan in its scope "
and universal in its sympathies. To read it is to
become a citizen of the world.
dress and at the same time conserve
her cash for our country, is un
ashamed to be seen at a bargain coun
ter. Be very sure, dearly lady, you
will meet many of your kind at these
counters of conservation. It is at such
places as these that the many germs
of a bright idea unite and become a
solid foundation for great work.
It doesn't pay the merchant to ad
vertise one. bit more than it pays the
woman to read his "lesson of
economy." On the most inexpensive
waists there was a saving of $2.55
on the blouses there was a great deal
more.
No woman should be ashamed of
having brains nor should she be im
patient with the 1,000 otfaflL at
the sale. She should be proud oSiy
energetic sisters and encourage t5t
to try for efficiency.

Married Life Difficult?
Ja most cases it is not
friction makes marriage so difficult,
for human beings 'a"re not as a rul
sensitive enough to be maddened by
trifles. What happens more often is
the growth of monotony. It is as if
the whipped cream of love had been
made into a pudding. (A pudding is
an excellent thing, but still , . .) It
is true that marriage often allays in T
men the desire for adventure, and it
is well tha it should be so, for a
world composed entirely of Don Juana
of all ages would be chaotic, uncom
fortable, and ill-furnished with the
necessaries of life. Life in the midst
of continually recurring domestic
revolutions would become a little too
romantic, and so we must not weep
too long over the young hero with
the curly fair hair, who has forgotten
all Ins dreams and is well content with
liis small home, for the curly hair must
grow gray or, what is worse, fall off.
This sounds like a platitude, but it is
true all the same, and one cannot too
often remind mankind that the later
years are longer than the early years.
That is where marriage scores a heavy
point, but, on the other hand, it does
tend to dull the edge of men's venture- V
someness; often it makes them too
content, and much more often it
makes them too dull to conceive again
the quest of the golden girl, for they
have at home, shall we say the silver
gilt girl, and it is regretfully that I
imagine their content, for I should
prefer a world where the race of de
lights would be longer and pleasures
have less mutable faces. W. I..
