Young Officers Have Thrilling Re
turn Trip.
It might be well for young officers
on a furlough to have an alarm clock
attachment on their wrist watches
which would emit a loud peal at train
time, for when the girls are pretty and
the lights are solt, such dull things as
drill and the, military orders are apt
to be forgotten. - t
Two officers were invited to a
house party in Lincoln last week.
They are stationed at Fort Crook and
it was indeed a treat to be ' invited
to spend the week-end at the lovely
home in Lincoln, especially since a
number of Omaha girls had been in
vited, too. The young men planned
to leave Lincoln on the midnight train,
for they had to report for duty at the
fort at 6 a. m. What was their con
sternation to find,, on arriving at the
station, that the midnight train had
been taken off by government orders
and there was only a freight which
would leave Lincoln at 3 in the morn
ing. The train did not stop in South'
i Side, so the soldiers would have to
leap from the train. Were they
daunted? Not a bit. Orders are orders,
and they would have to reach the fort
at 6 if they had to walk.
Hurrying across the street to a
little hotel, they tumbled into bed
with their clothes on, and slept, more
or less, until 3. They caught the
train and two tired, heavy-eyed young
men stumbled into Fort Crook at a
few minutes before 6. One of them
had to take command of his company
at once and if his orders were a little
mixed that morning it is no wonder.
We might even divulge their names
if you will keep the secret for we are
told on good authority that the two
week-enders were Lieutenant Paul
Cooley and Lieutenant Bruce Clark.
. McHugh-Goodrich Wedding.
An out-of-town wedding of great
interest to Omahans will be that of
Mice Rmir Marcuerite Goodrich
and Lieutenant William Douglas Mc
Hugh, son of Judge and Mrs. W. D.
McHugh, which will take place Sat
urday in Buffalo, N. Y.
The ceremony, will be quietly sol
emnized in the chapel of the First
Presbyterian church at 5 in the aft
ernoon. There will be no bridal at
tendants and following the wedding
supper will be served at the home of
the bride's parents for the members
of the immediate families.
The young couple will leave imme
diately for Deming. N. M., where they
will stay until Lieutenant McHugh
is ordered abroad. The bride will
then return to Buffalo to make her
home with her parents. .
Miss Goodrich is a charming girl
and well known in Omaha, as she
visited Judge and Mrs. W. D. Mc
Hugh last summer.
The, wedding date comes as a sur
prise to the friends of the young cou
" nle.i as Lieutenant McHugh was
granted a short furlough and hurried
east. He spent Wednesday in Omaha
visiting his sister, Mrs. C. J. Baird.
Judge and Mrs. McHugh have been
at Coronado Beach for some time, but
left several days ago for, Buffalo to
attend the wedding.

Red Cross Metes
The fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth
grades of a number of schools in the
city are making surgical dressings in
50-minute periods.
The chairman of the gauze cutting
committee for the different days will
bti Monday, Mrs. Raymond Over
meyer; Tuesday, Mrs. Sam Mattson;
Wednesday, Mrs. Lloyd Fercut;
Thursday, Mrs. J. C. Wrath; Friday,
Miss Margaret' Smith, and Saturday,
Mrs. R. L. Massy.
The hostess committee at the head
quarters are Mrs. Julius Lyon, Mrs.
H. B. Robinson, Miss Louise White,
Miss Regina Conrell and Miss Mar
garet Grace Foore.
One of the newest functions of the
American Red Cross is to give to
relatives and friends of American sol
diers details of casualties at the front
The anxiety which naturally fol
lows every battle when official reports
simply state that such and such sol
diers were wounded or "missing" will
be relieved in a large measure by this
service. The bureau established in
Paris by the Red Cross will supple
ment 'government information with
fuller details such as relatives crave..
Investigators from the Paris office
will be stationed at base hospitals in
France. When ' a soldier is killed,
wounded or missing these investi
gators will , send full particulars
promptly: to headquarters and.from
there it will be sent to America. Com
rades of the men who fall in battle
will be questioned for last details
about their fate. , .--
Along with this service the Ameri
can Red Cross has perfected "plans
for sending food to American soldiers
in German prison camps. Every week
three 10-pound packages ot tooa win
be sent from Switzerland to each
American soldier in Germany.
' For the re-educatioa of crippled
and mutilated French soldiers, a 500
acre farm, near Tours, in France, has
been obtained by the American Red
Cross. Here the use of farm ma
chinery and care of animals will be
taught. Clare Arnett, former profes-
SOr OI ammai nusuanuiy at mc muu
tana State Agricultural college, will
be the director of the farm, and M.
Marchand, a French farmer who has
been held a prisoner by the Germans
for 37 months, will be chief of agri
culture. Another work done for the maimed
poilu by the-Red Cross is the in
stallation, of model electrical training
work shops at the National Profes
sional Jnstitute for War Cripples, at
St. Maurice. Other plans for train
ing him in skilled work are being de
veloped. '
The mutilated soldier must and
should re-enter industry on a basis
of competition with able-bodied work
men. Cripples who have lost an arm
or leg and at first seem hopelessly
disabled, can be taught many pro
cesses of industry, such as running
lathes, operating motor tractors, con
trolling drills and other skilled opera
tions. . The professions which offer
the greatest appeal are industrial
draughting and design making for
sugical instruments, tools of preci
sion, watchmaking, etc.
The American Red Cross also wilj
establish in the United States similar
schools to teach new trades to crip
pled American soldiers.
Community Kitchens
England is turning to communal
kitchens as a means of conserving
food. Six of these kitchens have al
ready been established under Lord
Rhondda and have been fairly suc
cessful. Nearly 50,000 meals have
been served the last eight months in
two kitchens maintained in West
Ham, near London. The average
charge has been 10 cents per meal
to consumers, although nourishing
meals are sold for as little as 2 cents.
A communal kitchen. with capacity
for 1,000 meals daily, opened recently
in North Woolwich Road, represents
an investment of only $1,500 and gives
great economies in fuel and labor, as
well . as furnishing properly cooked
foods with full nutritive value and the
avoidance of waste.
Perfection is what the whoie world is seek
ing and one's proximity to it determines
one's worth in the mind of the world.
By ADELAIDE KENNERLY.,
PERFECTION? ,.. . -
The whole world wants perfection! Why not?
Is a shoddy thing worth considering except with a view to improve
ment? Is a half done piece of work as praiseworthy as one finished in every
detail?.
Nothing ever is good enough unless it is the result of the best there
is in you; unless it has called forth your thought, your energy and your
labor. Without the combination of all of these there is something lacking.
Why does the teacher sometimes seem to show partiality to those in
her classes who progress more rapidly than others? It brings green to
the eyes of the children who never bask in the sunshine of teacher's
smiles. t .
Recognition.
'Those who progress do their best to succeed. Effort is recognized
and concentration is appreciated. Ambition and a desire to be a winner
enhances the attractiveness of any child.
Teachers, business heads and leaders in every walk of life stub their
toes against these human stumbling blocks who neither try nor care to
be winners in Life's games.
Stones of indifference weight down the heads of half the people in the
'vorld.
Indolence is the bar to any kind of progress.
The Way.
Perfection? - ,
Why, you win it through untiring efforts. Strive for it, think about it
forget that anyone else in the world has more ability than you have.
Cast the little green devils from you and make a desperate effort for per
fection in some one thing. Hard work makes it easy.
Perfection is what the whole universe is seeking and one's proximity
to it determines one's worth in the mind of the world.
