LziBROsacOefrsS young girls and matrons have volun teered to appear at the different thea ters and moving picture houses and impress on the Omaha public in the short space of two minutes how they can help Uncle Sam by carrying their own packages home.

Many women have become accomplished speakers since the war began who probably had never been called on before to perform such a task. Mrs. O. C. Redick, Mrs. Charles T. Kountze and Mrs. Luther Kountze have become finished public speakers since assuming their duties in the Omaha chapter of the Red Cross. Mrs. Clement Chase has' even been out on a speaking tour through the state.

AJssjs (Note To the Wanderlust clan under the "Lure of Somewhere By ADELAIDE Out of the land of weel and of woe, A voice is forever calling: "Go! Go To the 'Land of Somewhere Else,' make hasto-; Time is too precious to idle and waste." And again the mystic somethings say: .."Why joiter around here another day? Awake, my friend, and rnove on and o i Before this wonderful life is all gone." Wherever I am I do not care. Just so it's someviere else, but I dare Not linger at rest too long, Lest Life should forget to sing me her song. There's always a "somewhere else" beyond. Somewhere there is something new to be found. So aimlessly and on I wander, Yielding to a phantom vision yonder, f Routine makes life seem so much longer, The very soul cries out with hunger For diversion. Ah! Too vast a space Bktwecn my joys and the dull resting place. No use to wait; it's calling again: "Move on," and I ask it where and when. I "It matters not, but be gone, rejoice," So I shall go now as I have no choice. When Wisdom takes his time-honored seat, I may, in my home, find a sweet retreat When Youth's enthusiasm is cold And the "Lure of Somewhere Else" has grown old. When I have spent the best of life. Mingling my tears with joys and with strife, Take me into thy arms, Oh Rest! Say: "Be content you have known the best." Schleh-Swenson Wedding. Miss Myrtle A. Swenson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. F.
