Eat Cheese
Whereas in 1881 we shipped abroad
nearly 150,000,000 pounds of cheese,
in .1914, just before the war cut off our
trade, we shipped only 2,500,000, ac
cording to the April Mothers Maga
z'mt. We simply did not appreciate
cheese, and we came to rely on other
nations for our supply. We relied on
foreign cheese makers to such an ex
tent "that whereas in 1900 we bought
only 13,500,000 pounds from abroad, in
1914 we bought nearly five times as
much, or 64,000,000 pounds, much of
which could and should have been
produced in the United States. It is
bound to take some years to reverse
this drift of things.
By. legislative fiat or court decree
no government power can' induce
folks, to eat cheese. Perhaps the war
will do what court and congresses
iinOt. Perhaps the scarcity of meat
will turn us more to cheese, a good,
solid, digestible, upstandine food.

War Relief Benefits Only Social
Affairs at Coronado Beach Hotel
lir 0NE ARE the days when" well, if the meter could be adjusted we
I y would say, "when the Coronado Beach hotel was bright and gay,"
for1 the pall of the war has descended on this poDuIar resort and
the most exciting event of the afternoons is a cup of tea and the evenings
you must dance for the Red Cross or not at all. T i
M.ts. D. C. Bradford, who has just returned from California, says that)
the only affairs given this winter at the beautiful hotel were benefit affairs, j
The society circus was the largest of these and' pretty Mrs. Fred Hamilton'
was very charnn.ig as an Egyptian maiden selling cigarets. Toto, the movie I
clown, vas a feature of the occasion, and Mrs. Bradford is eager to have
Omaha -society attempt something of the kind, as such a large sum was
realized at the hotel.
Mr. and Mrs. Bradford visited at North Island during the early part of
their stay. Thirty airplanes were flying that day and it was a most spectacu
lar sight. The regulations are very strict now, however, and no one is allowed
to visit the island. A military review, in which 20,000 soldiers took part
was also witnessed by the Bradfords at Camp Kearney.
Mrs. Bradford described the sensation of watching from 20 to 30 planes
circling above one's head as a most thrilling one.
The earl of Dunbar gave several inspiring lectures during the last month
to the winter tourists at the hotel, on his war-time experiences.

Advice to Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
A Splendid Spirit.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am going about with
a young man 28. I love him dearly. He
baa, asked ma to become hli wife. There
are no parental objection, but there ia one
reaaon.
Oolng down to business every day I have
to pai the moat poorly and densely popu
lated aectlon in the olty, and to aee the dirty
and unkempt families and homes, it has
made me feel I ought to devote my life
to doing what I can for the poor. F. V, W,
My dear child. Toor spirit la aplendld
and unselfish, but a little bit morbid and
byaterical for all that. Don't fling aside
the personal happlnee to which you are
entitled for the sake of turning your life
into a sacrifice. Marriage Isn't aupposed
to be a aaerlflce, but the happiest possible
expression of life Itself. Why ahould you
not be able to serve the poor And needy
even after you are married T Undoubtedly
wonderful women like Florence Nightingale,
Clara Barton and Jane Addam have been
more completely free to serve humanity be
cause tbey had no perronal ties but just to
feel yearning to help pople In general
doesn't assure you of. the efficiency and
ability that would make you such a woman
as one of these. Marry the man you love
and retain still an unselfish desire to serve
others.

Qualities of Character as Well
As Mind Necessary for Success
You Were Generous,
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am IS years old and
inenaiy with a man three years my senior.
On his blrhday I gave him (with the
knowledge of my parents) a present. Did
I do wrong in giving him this litis gift,
pair or gold cuff buttons? M. A,
Don t worry about your own generosity
la the matter of a birthday gift. A boy of
fine. feeling cannot help appreciating the
fact that you gave without calculating
whether you were In his debt or not What
you did was free from any mercenary spirit
and surely cannot be considered forward or
bold in the light of the question you were
asked and the honest answer you made. I
have an Idea that the young man Is rather
seriously interested In you, but that he agrees
with your own sensible attitude and recog
nizes the wisdom of letting time prove the
seriousness of the attachment between you.
Just go on as you have done before. There
Is no need for self consciousness or regret.
Reckon the Values.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have been going
about with a young man for a year and he
has asked me to break off corresponding
with a former sweetheart now In the army.
Recently, be Ignored me. While I lovj him,
I would like you to advise me In regard
to continuing my correspondence with my
soldier boy. C. B.
How much do yon love the sweetheart
whose commands and request you are dis
cussing with me? How sincere do yon con
sider his feeling for you? How muoh did
your friendship with the soldier mm to
you? Figure out the actual values of the
situation. I do not quite understand the
aentenoe in which you tell me how your
lover Is Ignoring you. I don't like 1es'-usy
nor a tendency to be tyrannical and Issue
orders. On the other band, I do admire
a man whose attitude toward the girl for
whom he cares la one of kindly guardian
ship and of unwillingness to let her barm
herself by association with people of the
wrona '
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Every business man or woman
must stand or fall by his qualities of
character as well as those of mind.
Mental development alone produces
a "thinking machine" cold, imper
sonal, mechanical, unlovable. It re
quires personality individuality to
command tha regard and likine and
faith of employers or associates or
employes. '
A few ye;.rs ago the owner and
founder of one of New York's lar
gest specialty houses died and left
the "good will" of his business, to
gether with its copyrighted name and
a controlling amount of stock to one
of his trusted employes.
Do you know what that meant?
It signified that the man who had
built up an honest house of good
character felt that he dared leave the
thing he had created to a successor
who was related to him only in aims,
character and ideals. He knew the
name he had made honorable would
not be smirched that the controlling
amount of stock belonged to the
man who would use it even as the
founder of the business had used it.
But he knew more that the very
spirit of his beloved business would
continue under the guidance of his
successor.
Honesty Important
Habits of honesty and loyalty and
perseverance are easy to form or
not to form, asthe case may be.
Character itself depends on these hab
its. Reputation comes from charac
ter. And standing in the business
world comes from reputation based
on character. The big credit systems
are based on character as well as on
bank accounts.
A suciaen clever stroke may win
recognition for a man or woman.
People say, "He struck 12 then." Why
does 12 never strike. again for that in
dividual? Why can he never again
"deliver the goods?"
The reason is here: That one suc
cess was either an entire accident
or an accidental use of powers that
are not trained to come automatically
into use all of the time. Character
and power are built slowly cn right
habits of feeling and willing and act'
ing.
The kind of family into which you
are born and the early training you
get happen to you. You do not choose
them. Even your physical character
istics are to a certain extent beyond
your power but you can choose what
you think about and how you act.
Through what you will to do, and
through the habits of willing anl do
ing and acting, your future is molded.
"The living sense grows but by
exercise." That applies just as mucn
to your attitude toward life as to
your power to think or to your ability
to breathe. The athlete trains him
self in a certain, way The student
trains his mind as purposefully as the
wrestler trains his body. Ihe busi
ness man who wants to succeed has to
train his mind and his character.
Don't expect "Pull or "Luck" or
Favoritism to give you your chance
tven it the general manager of
company takes a sudden fancy to th
office boy, he cannot make a head
salesman out of that boy if the younir
ster doesn't advance himself step by
step along the paths that are opened
Deiore mm. But it the boy is a deter
mined little chap and has taught him
self to work and think and do the
square thine he is bound to rise. Th
office manager may hand the boy hi
first chance as a present the boy
wouia nave earned it tor himself any
way.
Someone else may set you on your
feet and lead you a few 6teps. No
one else can do your walking for you

will take charge of the hostess house
at the camp. Mrs. Johannes is es
pecially fitted for this work, as she
has taken training in Young Women's
Christian association work and this
winter while in New York she took
the two months' training course for
the work in the hostess houses. Mrs.
Johannes volunteered for work any
where in the United States and she re
ceived a telegram from Washington
Saturday asking, "if she could report
for duty at once."
Soap Saving
Soap-savinp, suggestions have been
adopted by the Hotel Association of
Chicago as a body. The amount of
soap supplied to guests is to be
limited by supplying fresh cakes only
when a room is occupied by a new
iguest, or when soap has diminished to
a thickness which warrants the maid
putting in a new cake. Only one cake
of soap is to be put in each room with
out bath, and two cakes in room with
bath.
A Red Cross auxiliary has been
formed among the Omaha Country
club members. Mrs. Charles T.
Kountze is directing the organization
of the new band of workers. Most
of the women are devoting hours to
the work at other places.

Carter Lake clubs the auxiliaries will
he re-established with the opening of
these clubs. s
Here's a place you can enlist your
odd table linen and household muslins
to help win the war. Miss Jessie
Millard, heading the group of women
who are making the equipment for
the University of Nebraska base hos
pital at the First Presbyterian church,
needs quantities of this kind of sal
vage. Several of the women nurses who
were in Omaha at the time of the
unit's mobilization last week visited
the 650 workers and were delighted
at the amount and quality of their
work.
