Women's Libery Loan
Committee Passes the
Million Dollar Mark
What Omaha women are really ca
pable of accomplishing in patriotic
work once they are well organized, is
demonstrated by last week's record
of the wc-men's Liberty loan commit
tee, headed by Mrs. E. M. Fairfield.
Subscriptions totaling $1,000,000 is
the first week's record, more than
twice as much money as the women
collected for Uncle Sam during the
whole of the second campaign.
..The men's committee acknowl
edges (somewhat ruefully, it is whis
pered) that the women are leading
them a merry pace and keeping them
constantly on the alert lest they lag
behind.
The big event for the second week
of the drive is the visit Wednesday
of Mrs. Antoinette Funk of the na
tional Liberty loan committee, and
one of the original members of the
National Council for Defense, wo
men's committee, helping to organize
that branch 'of war co-operation. She
is a Chicago lawyer and was promi
nent in suffrage work before the
United States entered the war.
Mrs. Funk will speak at the Cham
ber of Commerce at 12:15 Wednes
day, and in the evening at the Or
pheum, Boyd, Strand and Empress.
The hours that she will speak at the
theaters will be announced later. .... ...
House-to-House Canvass. -
Mrs. M, D. Cameronchairman of
the house-to-house canvass, reported
over $75,000 in subscriptions the first
two days of the drive. Most of the
women report a cordial reception, but
some have found indifferent wel
comes, while others saw the inmates
of some homes peeping through the
windows and refusing to answer the
door. All such cases are reported to
headquarters, and it is safe to gay
that nothing in the way of an unpa
triotic attitude escapes the eyes of
the women.. .
The first bonfLJiought from the
house-to-house workers in the First
ward was by a milkman, who gave
$300 in cash to Mrs. Stanley Green.
While very few of the colored wo
men could afford to buy bonds, they
were very eager to learn all about
Liberty bonds. .Much of the work-e-s'
time is. spent in educating them
to the needs of Uncle Sam.
Some of the workers find the can
vass very discouraging in the way of
actual cash results, but they leave the
Liberty bond literature wherever they
call and pave the way for future bond
issues. One woman called on 147
families and secured only one $50
bond for her work, because the bonds
had alr;ady been secured through
other committees.?": v
Miss Elsie Mae Miller of 2580 Har
ney street made her4 first payment on
her bond ih nickels and dimes that
she had been saving.
A group of seven women called on
John E. Jepsen, and, in addition to
a $600 check for his bond, he pre
sented them with a blank check and
invited them to buy their luncheon at
his expense. It was 12:30 and the
women were hungry. They accepted
his check with thanks.

Churches.
The quarter of a million mark lias
also been passed by the churck work

in view of the fact that the amount
is made up mainly of small subscrip

Mrs. llarmanek, chairman, reported
$2,800 taken from 27 subscribers.
The First Church of Christ sub

Women's Clubs.
The women's clubs, under the chair
manship of Mrs. Warren Blackwell,
have so far turned in over $250,000.

Society Wins Note
Little Miss Elizabeth C. Richards,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. De For

National Humane Review magazine.
The picture was sent by H. S.
Mann, head of the Humane society in
this city, when the pet animal shows
were held in local parks two years
ago.
Omaha has another special mention
in the magazine. It is as follows:

H. S. Mann. Through his efforts an

to 40,000 of Nebraska's leading citi
zens. At the time this is written
nearly $2,000 have been received
through this source. Much more is
expected. He has also secured the
indorsement of the Red Star by the
Rotary club of that city. Many of
the young society women have taken
up the work, including the four for

George B. Prinz and Mrs. Lucien
Stephens are aiding very materially
in this work. The papers have been

It will be well for other Red Star

Group of War Workers
Such widespread interest is center in the community work done at the First Presbyterian church in equipping the University of Nebraska
Fed Cross base hospital that the Red Cross Magazine requested Louis Bostwick to send a picture of the workers. This impressive group photograph
will be sent to the publishers.
The entire amor.nt of supplies necessary to equip a base hospital of 1,000 beds is nearing completion. An extra drive is now on in order to finish
the work before the unit is ordered abroad following its present intensive training at Fort Des Moines.
Miss Jessie Millard is at the head of this group of more than 300 women who gather daily to stitch the surgeons' aprons, the bed shirts for
the wounded or the countless other supplies. Luncheon is prepared and served at noon by the workers.
The splendid new church building offers such an ideal workshop that it is expected to continue Red Cross work there after the hospital sup
plies are completed.

Miss Alice Low, who is the guest
of her brother, Mr. Wilson Low, and
Mrs. Low, has some thrilling tales to
tell of her experience in Pctrograd
during the recent revolution. Miss
Low made her home in the Russian
capital for the last five years and was
a teacher of English in a private fam
ily at the time of the revolution.
"There was continuous shooting for
three days," said Miss Lew, "but we
man
w
were so excited that we forgot to be
frightened." ,
The Ar crican consul came to the
hotel where Miss Low was stopping
and begged lier to come to the con
sulate, where she would be under the
projection of the American Hag.
The food situation in Russia was
very critical lollowing the revolution
and Miss Low says that they were
forced to leave, as they could hardly
get enough to eat. Miss Low has
been in California for some time lec
turing on her war experiences.
"I talk for two hours," she said,
''and then I didn't tell half."

Forcing Hair To Grow
Woitteftilfer
A Powerful Secret not Generally
Known and Which Every Woman
Should Know. How to Make the
Complexion Exquisite.
BY VALES KA SURATT
THfjRE Is, after all, only one positive
way to grow hair. That is, to force
It to grow. Yoa -can't tease it and
get results. If yon want to give yourself
a really wonderful surprise, and see your
hair grow as yoa perhaps never believed
make. Just try the following simple formula,
and use it liberally. Quit using everything
else, and for once in your life you wit! be
able to say: "I have found it." This hair
formula is as follows: Mix one ounce of
beta-quinol, obtainable at any drug store,
with either one-half pint of bay rum and
one-half pint, of water, or in place of water
and bay rum a full pint of witchhaiel. You
will then have over a Hint of real hair
grower that beats the world. You'll quickly
notice your hair stop falling, and it will grow
long, silky and beautiful and the thin spots
will fill out wonderiull.
BESSIE D. It is now no longer neces-.
sary to wait for many months and perhaps
years to produce a beautiful complexion.
You can have it as surel as the sun rises,
in a few days' time. If you find this hard to
believe ju.t try the simple formula given
below, and you will prove the fact yourself
very quickly. Ask your druggist for a one
ounce package of aintone. At home mix the
contents of the package with two table
spoonfuls of glycerine m a pint of water.
Use the cream lavishly, every day, without
fail and you will be sure to get results.
AWFUL Superfluous hairs ruin the ap
pearance of any face no matter how beauti
ful. Ever hear of dissolving away these
hairs T The only thing I know that does this,
instead of "burning" off the hairs, is to
moisten them with sulfo solution. Your
druggist will supply you with it for one
dollar. No matter where you apply It, It
will always work, never leave red spot.
The akin will be left soft and smooth, and
it will not irritate the most delicate skin.
MRS. P. O. S. Do you realize that alkali
in soaps and ordinary shampoos dry up the
scalp and hair secretions T If you want a
