Pour Old Jewelry Into the Melting Pot and.
Out Will Come Surgical Dressings for Sammies
1
'J'here will be a great overhauling
of cast-off jewelry boxes this week
for old bits of jewelry and silver to
put into the melting pots in the win
dow of Brown's jewelry store and the
rooms of the War Relief society in
the Baird building. The huge pots
will be placed on tripods, the flags of
the allies flying from the top.
It is 'thought that this method of
raising money for a good cause will
be welcome, as everyone has some
old worn pieces of silver or gold, or
broken jewelry. Often these are not
worth mending and if exchanged in
bulk fbr new articles their intrinsic
value seems to melt to naught, but
many of these little silver and gold
junk piles put together would relieve

Campfire Girls
Take Places of
Men at Front
At tli is time when women are tak
ing the places of men in many of the
arts of peace in order thattnen may
he released to study the arts of war
the value of the program which the
Campfire Girls have heen carrying out
ever since the inception of the move
ment in is heroiniiiK more ap
parent every day. The heads and dec
orations with which the ceremonial
gowns of the girls are trimmed are
"honors' granted to them in recogni
tion of definite accomplishments in
home craft, health craft, camp craft,
hand craft, nature lore, husiness train
ing and patriotism.
Hand Craft.
Under the head of "hand craft," for
instance, there are 10 distinct voca
tions besides other useful accomplish
ments which the girl members may
acquire and thus secure "honors" and
advancement in the association. These
include brass work, silver work, bas
ket work even to the caning of chairs,
wood carving, carpentry, painting,
book binding, photography, knitting
and the work of a locksmith. Some
of these will obviously be useful to
the railroads and factories which are
now advertising for women. Knit
ting, wliich has heen a regular part
of the hand craft program, has dem
onstrated its worth in the immense
amount of work that the t'anipliic
Girls have done for the Ked Cross.
Business "Honors."
The business "honors" include
keeping a bank account, serving as
treasurer, typewriting, shorthand, sav
ing money, living within an allow
ance and many other definite and con
crete things to which the permission
to wear the decorative symbols lends
a glamor of accomplishment. The
value of these, now that many men in
offices are being replaced by girls, is
obvious. There are at present nearly
800 such "honors' officially promul
gated by Campfire headquarters and
all the work and study that the Camp
fire Girls and women have done to
earn them is actually resulting in
much good to the nation.
Omaha Campfire Girls.
The following girls have proved
themselves to be the most depend
able, the best mixers, the jolliest and
the most efficient ot all the t amp
hire Girls in the citv. '1 hey are:
Jean Kennedy, Klcauor Ktnt, Ruth
llattroth and Ilubcrta Uarker. Kach
of the girls were presented with a i
silver thimble in recognition of their ;
work at the last grand council fire, j
Tin Foil. j
Three hundred awl seventy pounds
of 1 1 tv- foil have been collected by the
Campfire Girls. Anyone who has any
tin foil to contribute is asked to call
Miss Anne Axtell. One hundred
scrapbooks for the wounded soldiers
have heen made by the girls and sent ,
to the Red Cross liospitals in France, i
Family Reunion. .
A reunion of the Child family was
held Thanksgiving day at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Jackson. Those
present were:

Gained Eighteen Pounds in
Two Weeks Used Peruna
I feel
After the
Sixth Bottle
I Am Cured of
Stomach and
Intestinal
Catarrh.

Mr. William Vogel, Pharmacist,
Columbus, O., writes:
"I take the privilege of addressing
you in a few words of praise for
Peruna at a remedy of medicinal
lue in cases of ttomach and intei
f.inal catarrh.
"I was in the drug business six
years, in Columbus, and was among
the unfortunates in that great disas
trous flood of the West Side a year
ago last March. Nearly all of the
one hundred that perished in that
flood were friends or patrons.
"Through cold and exposure nnd
improper food during the flood, I
was taken with upendicitis and
acute intestinal catarrh. In June
and July my life was despaired of,
but recovered sufficiently to be up
and around. My bowels seemed
paralyzed. Was compelled to use in
jections once or twice a day. vCould
eat no solid food. I
"The first of last December I de
cided to try Peruna. My bowels be
gan to move at once, without the
use of injection. Peristaltic action
began to take place, and have not
used an injection since. My appe
tite improved, and very soon solid
foods could be taken. In two months' .
time I gained eighteen pounds. Now 1
I am heavier than I ever was before. 1
"I am taking the sixth bottle of
Peruna at this writing, and feel that
I am cured of the stomach and in
testinal catarrh."

cines can now procure Peruna Tab- j
