21 m Conduciedby Ella Fleishman THE BEE: PMAHA, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1918. J a: 7 Vegetables Sell At Same ( Prices They Did Year Ago Vegetables are'tbe cehapest edibles on the market today, according to Al King, manager of Hayden Bros.' gro cery and meat departments. "The t fresh vegetables from Texas and Louisiana are just what they were last spring and are practically the only thing in the eating line on which the price has not been raised," 'he said. 'Old onions are another commodity which is cheap; in fact, they are sell ing at 1 cent a pound, whereas at this time last year they were quoted at 1254 cents a pound." Strawberries are soaring in price, temporarily, and are selling at 25 cents - jint box. The jobbers are charging 5 for a crate of pints and $9 for a :rate of quarts. '.Texas cucumbers of the huge, long variety, which were selling a week ago for 15 and 20 cents, have taken a drop to 5 and 7VS cents. New potatoes have already reached the market and are selling for 10 cents a pound. Home crown rhubarb is plentiful and cheap, selling lor four bunches for a nickel, and this has forced down the price of the Laluor nia rhubarb to three pounds for a dime. Asparagus will sell Saturday for S cents a bunch and home grown onions for six bunches for 5 cents. Wax and green beans will be IS cents a pound. Fresh beets, carrots and shallots are 5 cents a bunch. Head lettuce is 7yi cents and cabbages are 6 'cents, a pound. Oranges, while larger in size, nave risen in price. Aimless Wandering Will Get You Nowhere in Game of Life By BEATRICE FAIRFAX nO YOU remember the old song, "I Don't Know Where I'm Go- T ing, But I'm on the Way." To anyone who has adopted that forliis motto I want to shout a warning: "You won't get there 1" No one lands anywhere at all in the whole wide world (except on the ash heap) unless he definitely de . cides on a goal and starts out to reach it. Let us put ourselves now through ' thi third degree. Ask each of him self: "What do I want of life? Is there a word that sums up my su , preme ambition? Do I long for one :hing aboye all others? And am I .mak ing any effort to attain my heart's desire?" About once in every two or three months I find myself writing a little ' article on a topic and under a cap tion both of which are great favor ites of mine "You get what you want" sums it up. Firmly I believe that if you find out what you want in life and set about attaining it you can succeed. But you have to be sin- , cere with yourself. Recently a young girl wrote me a rather desperate, letter, in which she .'" stated that her "one ambition in life was to be a musician, and that her parents were insisting that they could j not afford to let her study longer but must pri her at once to work. She claimed iher life was' wrecked that . giving up her career and going to work in an office was going to kill all her happiness and ambition. Going to work in an office hadn't J anything to do with killing her career. Our great musicians are not recruited from the aristocracy of the wealthy and the well-to-do. Poor arbers, pen niless peasants, uneducated maid servants from the ranks of the im poverished and lowly com our great . musical successes. No Sacrifice Too Great. They come inevitably because no sacrifice is too great for them to make no price is too high for them to pay no payment too bitter for them to endure if- at the end of all their sufferings their goal may be reached. If the little girl who signs her- up in the air" after defeat. Their plans "gang agley" and they seek consolation in drink, in dissipation, in riotous living and any lethal cup of forgetfulness they can find. Then if perchance some day they wake to their own folly and long to go again in pursuit of ambition, instead of comintr back refreshed and invigor ated, they return with depleted en ergy. "None but myself shall I meet on the highway of fate," wrote Maeter linck. That is more true than most of us realize, or, realizing confess. No one can help you much as you go through life. Some one can give you a hearing, a chance to prove yourself, a start. But, given this, if you have neither the ability nor the energy to go on, the chance you had to prove yourself only proves you a failure. Indecision, wavering between choices, doubt of what really is to you essential in life, are the- things which must inevitably defeat you. If you are a bootblack or a fruit vender, and you have a desire to be the head of a great shoe plant or the president of a chain of fruit stores, nothing can stop you but sheer lack of ability, laziness or infirmity of purpose. To succeed, you have to dream and dream true. Then you have to work faithfully, earnestly, steadily and agonizingly to make your dreams come true. American Women's Hospitals To Start Drive for Funds milium ir Hsp' f " t self "Brokenhearted" has within her the one supreme desire to be a great musician, she will walk to work, go without her lunch,, wear shabby clothes, do extra work at home in the evening, fill her Sundays with holi days with toil and al that she may save toward a little fund which will let her return to the study of her be loved music some day. The people who fail either mistake what they really want in life or, hav ing found what it is they desire, re 4 fuse to pay the price of achievement! Success is the one thing which never meets anyone halfway. After you have- gone 100 per cent of the distance that originally lay between you and your desire (if it be a de sire for great achievement) you will suddenly find that it has receded that it lies infinitely further in the distance, than you had supposed. If you have the grit and courage to keep on going to follow the little beacon that twinkles afar, eventually you must achieve. Do you remember the fable of Antaeus, with which Hercules strove in vain, because each time he beat Antaeus to the earth, the fallen one rose again newly strengthened. So at last Hercules seized him in bis arms and held tiim high in the air. " Then at last, the strength went out of , Antaeus, and Hercules defeated him. The meaning of the fable was of course, that earth was the mother of the giant, that from it he gained new life and power as long as he might be close to it. 1 " Modern Application. I think we can make a little mod ern 6 application of the old story. Each of us is very much like the giant. Earth is our mother, and if, when we are defeated, we lie close to it and rest for a time, 'then we will get up with renewed vigor. The people, who fail are those whb "go Woman's: Clubs t Change la Meeting Place. f ' Instead of holding its general meet ing at the Fontenelle Saturday after ' noon at 2:30 o'clock, the Association of Collegiate Alumnae will meet at the l.nmA nf frc HrtwarH Ptlchtnn 5101 Nicholas street.

A children's dancing class 's held . tt the Settlement Saturday evenings from 7 to' 8.30, and from 8:30 to 11 o'clock a social dance will be given for the grown-ups. .

The second will be open soon, and others are in process of construction. The stations are arranged to im prove traveling conditions for the American soldiers to supply him be tween trains and during long waits with a comfortable place in which to rest, write letters. "Such institutions have been found by the British and French armies to be not only the soldiers' due but powerful means in sustaining their morale. The men have enough discomforts in any case, and to eliminate them whenever pos sible is essentially Red Cross work. "We have been operating an Ameri can canteen for the benefit of a United States army air service camp and are now serving 1,280 men per day. It has been a source of great pleasure to us that this canteen has met with so much success. As a matter of fact, its success has been so much greatei than could have been prophesied that this rest station is in process of be ing very much enlarged. "Our dire:tress at this point estab lished on her own initiative an officers' mess in the canteen, with the re sult that she has been asked by the camp authorities to take over the en tire charge of the mess for all the officers of the camp. We are building barracks for the purpose and for an officers' lounge, which, with the present barracks for the enlisted men and the canteen personnel, will inclose a court. We have established here a diet kitchen, where special dishes are rooked under the doctors orders for sick men. Begun on a small scale, 'the diet kitchen has grown steadily. The doctors are en thusiastic about this work, it has been found incfst useful and is a good ample of the fact that when Red Cross activities are in the hands of constructive workers they are bound : to increase in usefulness. Dallas Canteen to Have Several Unique Features A recreational canteen, to be open ed by the women of Dallas, Tex., in April for the benefit of enlisted men, will be unique in several features. Be sides the usual accommodations pro vided at canteens, space in the build ing has been set apart for games, music and dancing. The canteea cafetria will be open each afternoon and evening and will be in charge of 20 volunteer workers as hostesses. Expenses will.be met by donations and the canteen proceeds. While the canteen will be conducted under the auspices of the City Fed eration of Women's Clubs, the churches of Dallas are enthusiastically co-operating und.r a plan which places the responsibility for a special day in each i .cnth on each congre gation.. Sale of Serbian Girls Eight thousand Serbian girls under 18 years of age were sold to the Turks for $4 each by the Austrians. This statement was made by S. S. Mc Clure in the course of a talk upon the war delivered at the Arts club of Washington. After six months' trial in the ser vice between St. Louis and Memphis, the Frisco railroad has discontinued the employment of women as auditors on its passenger trains, having con cluded that the hours and conditions of labor axe not suitable, to women. 1 1 j I Dr. Rosalie S.

Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 22. , About a year ago I met a young lady two years my junior, and although I admired her Im mensely, I did not fall In love with her. Our acquaintance was not very old when he confessed that she was desperately In love with me and has been that way for years, long before she bad been Introduced to me, for she had known me by sight for many years. I have tried to talk reason and explain, but of no avail. I have tried for a year to learn to love her. Now her parent are beginning to wonder about the results of such precedure, and off times have hinted at what my Intentions are. Con I tell them the truth? Or ought a man marry out of sympathy? I could do most anything to prevent the pains and heartache whloh will be sure to follow our parting. If I marry her, and by some trick of fate I should fall In love with someone else, what then? Can you help me? B. M. This girl has not much ehanoe of hap piness as the wife of a man who doea not care for her.

German School Children Are Becoming Unruly A recently published report of the United States Bureau of Education makes the fallowing statement: "Owing to the lack of proper sur veillance, as well as to certain psycho logical causes, school children in Ger many have become , during the war, utmsally mischevious and unruly, This condition has been reported to the police and other guardians of the law and order to take energetic measures on their own initiative against all shamelessness, mischief and roughness on the part of children. The resolution adopted by the Berlin school authorities reads: "In view of tjp fact that numerous cases, men tioned at this meeting, have proved that the behavior of school children "': is becoming increasingly bad, we re- -: quest that orders shall be given to , prevent any restriction of the lawful -right of punishment which belongs v: to the teacher, and to see that tho t school police intervene much more ': speedily and energetically."
