r is THE BEE: OMAHA. SATURDAY. JANUARY 12, 1918. t aan.WtMjaa.aaa.aaaea IMMia " By MELLIFICIAJan. 11 "rjollyannas" to Meet Pollyanna. Don't you wish you were a mem ber of the Pollyanna club? This little "glad" group of 17 girls will be honored Saturday afternoon when Mfs. Arthur C. Pancoast will enter tain them at a matinee party to see "Pollyanna" at the Brandeis. . The charming leading lady, iliss Helen Hayes, is so interested in the little club that she lias invited mem bers behind the scenes after the per formance to make them a little, talk. You can imagine the delight of the' litjle girls to see a real actress "close tip;' and especially when she makes tht beloved Pollyanna really live be fore their eyes. ' Mr; Rutherford, the father of one of the little Pollyanna!, wrote to Miss Hayes' manager, who is a personal friend, ad in reply came 17 Polly anna buttons for the girls in the club last week. Their delight knew no bounds. The little girls live up to their "glad" slogan. They have worked all summer long, meeting once a week at the home of Mrs. Charles Leslie to make articles for a sale wheh was held December IS for the benefit of the free dental dispensary. They feel that they had a big part in bringing gladness to some poor kiddie with an aching tooth. The little ccterie will undoubtedly be fired with new enthusiasm when they see a real, flesh and blood Polly anna and I feel sure we shall hear of some wonderful things they have done in the "glad" line before long. Host for Aviatrix. Mr. Paul Dillon, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Dillon, who has been visit ing relatives in Berkeley and Hono lulu, will leave for home Monday.

Yet, somehow, down beside my bed I cannot pray. Reside my couch I knelt last night To pray that earthly troubles might Be o'er and wars their thunder cease; That love and happiness increase I could not pray. I wanted health, gold, forgiveness; I begged with thoughts of selfishness 'Till a soul within me cried 'loud That I was vain and cold and proud I dare not pray. ' "Your prayers are mockery, indeed! You ask for what you do not need And leave untouched in shameful waste That which God gave you, in your haste. You have not prayed! a "Some pray for peace some pray for war. Selfishness, hatred is not prayer. Your greedy thoughts are born in sin ; ' Victory is not great to Him. How can you pray?" a My destiny is. planned for me The future, though I cannot see Through the curtains God hung across My many chances'and my cross Why should I pray? He gives me all that I deserve Of love, and wealth, and splendid nerve To meet each glorious new task For more than thisjl cannot ask I cannot pray. a Liberty's not always freedom. God's infinite in His wisdom; Each heartache may be a lesson; Every pain may prove a blessing I dare not pray. a a So now I want to say each night, Regardless of how hard the fight Has been for me throughout the da;-. "Dear God, I cannot truly pray This is not prayer. a a "I only want to make it plain That I shall try, however vain, x At dawn to make a better fight For hqnor, justice and, the right. This is a promise not prayer." Advice to Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. Pear JIUs Fairfax: Titer is a certain young woman In this town who goes with a married man. Even goes as far as goinK to his home and stays for weeks while his wife la gone. The young man seems to think a lot of her. also of his wife. I'o you thtnk he is doing right and whoso fault 's if He also goes with other girls of the cit... ADELAIDE. The young woman is doing wrong and la veaving a net of evidence around herself from "which she cannot escape. The youns man may fancy her, but will be no more constant to her than he is to his wife. The man must be a base person who has no regard for morals or his reputation. Spend your tlma with a single man who has a rigy to your company" and who may hve the rlsht Intentions. spend a few weeks with her son, J. Clifford Long, who is at Goat island in the hospital school of the' United States navy. Mrs. Long will visit Mr- and Mrs. George Wittum of Val lejo, Cal., and with Mr. and Mrs. W. J.

'I Sharing Your Mourninc. rear Miss Ftlrfax: "Is it right for my sweetheart to go to a theater while I am In mourning for. my father. I guess your an swer will be that I am selfish. But I tried to take it that way, but couldn't see it. B. B. There la enough mourning and u.ihapptness In tho world without any one of us demand ing that any other one of us share a period of retirement from the world. Of course, you are selfiBh selfish and exacting. And now that I have lectured you I am going to con fess that when a men really lovea a girl he ought to want to lighten any period of gloom for her. Instead of merely going off to seek his own happiness. That's the ideal state of affalrB but most men are inpa tient of gloom and Inclined to seek a good time for themselves. So try to be philo sophical about the whole situation. Make the Best of It. Dear Miss Fairfax: I have been about with a chap il (six months Jun ior), for three years. We have grown to love each other. Before our acquaintance he went about with a girl I knew, but they had a dispute and didn't speak to each other until only last week. He Is again going about with her and 1 seriously object. What shall I do? He told me he didn't want any one build. Ing aircaetles about him, as he will have to lead a bachelor's Ufa for several yeare. to help support his parents and sisters, one of whom he Is educating. I am lonely and dread the moment my mother hears of his refrlendshlp with this girl in question, for I cannot reason with her. Please advise me what to An and also If I am In the right he should not seo this girl again. ARDATH. ' My dear girl, what can yo do about It? If your friend again enjoys his visits to the girl for whom he used to care, don't you see that you are nagging at him and trying to forbid his seeing her will ac complish nothing? Now. ho has distinctly told you that you must not dream ot marriage, with him as your fairy prince. If j-ou are just to be his friend, then he haa every right to have other friends. Since he cannot be more than your friend, why don't you cease building your whole life with him as the keystone, and find other interests to fill In part of your tlmeT When a girl finds herself In a situation where she if very foolish Indeed to protest and argue and to malie herself and everybody else miserable. FeatheredWight Fishers One of the most remarkable in stances of phosphorescent light ap pearing on living creatures is found among the herons. Among the quays and at the extreme end of Florida these birds are found in countless numbers. Mullet fishermen and sportsmen often noticed peculiar dim lights standing motionless over the water among the mangrove thickets, They were discovered, however, to depend on the presence of the birds. When they were appceached in the dark the flapping of wings as a heron flew away would mean the last of the lights. The Ardea Herodias, or great heron, has on its breast a spot about as large as the open palm, where the feathers are covered with a thick yellow powder that is easily shaken off, and evidently exudes from the body at this spot as a secretion, drying into a powder when exposed fo the air. The bird stands emotion less in the water, and the spot is undoubtedly used for or accomplishes the end of attracting the smaller fishes within reach of the bird, and if it is a decoy it is a most remarKaDie j provision of nature.
