Carp for the Mill Ponds
Hundreds of k potids are stocked
with fish by millers, affording a cheap
nd convenient food supply. German
rarp are suggested as a suitable fish
for this purpose by a correspondent
f the American Miller, who says that
Ihcy thrive in any mill pond, and
make a palatable food when properly
dressed.
Most sh ave tender skins, and
can be cooked after scaling. The
:arp, however, has a very tough skin,
which has done more than anything
else to give him a bad reputation as
t food fish. The carp should be
tkinned before cooking.

Society Girls Will
Give Dance May 4
For Flying Cadets
A number of our young girls are
planning a delightful little dance to
be given Saturday evening, May 4, at
Harte hall. The honor guests are to
be 25 of the flying cadets from Fort
Omaha. These young women have
been entertained by the student offi
cers at numbers of little week-end
affairs, so the girls will reciprocate
with this dance.
Mrs. C. A. Mallory, who lias done
so much for the men at the fort,
will be one of the patronesses at the
affair. Mrs. Mallory's home is open
to the boys at any time and many are
the little informal dances and cozy
Sunday night suppers that have been
given at the home of this charming
matron. So many of the boys at the
forts are lonely for a little touch of
home and under this hospitable roof
they forget such dull things as bal
loons and parachutes.
Some of the girls who will be host
esses at the May-time dance include,
Misses Bess Heaton, Lucy Updike,
Helen Weeks, Lthel Magney, Kliza
beth Perrigo, Pleasant Holyoke,
Clarice Brown, Alice Mone, Janet
Lees and Helen Pogue.
We even know of another little

come west for their weddings?

Dean Tancock, who came from Fort
Des Moines, where he is chaplain of
the Nebraska base hospital, read the
marriage lines.
Miss Dorothy Hall, in her pale
green crepe gown with large maline
hat to match, was a charming brides
maid and her shower bouquet of
bride's roses made a lovely bit of
color against her gown.
The bride entered on the arm of
her brother, Lieutenant Ware Hall,
who gave her away, and such a pretty
bride she was, too, in her white silk
gown heavily embroidered and made
on tailored lines. A large picture hat
of white maline, trimmed with white
ostrich tips, was born ana she carried
a shower bouquet iof bride's roses
and lilies.
The bridegroom was unattended, as
the best man, a fellow officer of Cap
tain Aycrigg's, found it impossible to
come.
Following the ceremony a wedding
breakfast was served and the white
Easter lilies were blended with the
lavender and white sweet peas in the
dining room. Above the table was
suspended a huge shower bouquet of
the fragrant blossoms, the petals fall
ing at intervals on the merry wed
ding guests.
Owing to the frail health of the
bride's mother the wedding arrange
ments were very simple and no formal
reception was held. This evening
Captain and Mrs. Aycrigg leave for
Camp Devans, Mass., where he is sta
tioned. Mr and frs William A. AvcrieST
of Stamford, Conn., who came from
the east to attend their son's wedding,
will probably remain a few days
longer.
Surprise Military Wedding.
These are busy days for Melli

fast that her brain is s whirl of white
satin ribbon1 and orange blossoms,
while huge slices of wedding cake
dance before her eyes.
"Maplecroft," the country home
of W. S. Wright, was the scene of a
very pretty military wedding Tuesday
afternoon, when Miss Margaret
Wright became the bride of Stanley
U. North of I'leasantville, N. J.
Palms and bride's roses were used in
the living room, where the ceremony
took place, the Rev. G. A. Hulbert
performing the ceremony.
There were no bridesmaids or even
a best man, for you see these wed
dings are planned In such a hurryl
Just the members of the family were
present, and immediately following
the ceremony the little bride and her
soldier husband left for the east,
where they will spend a short honey
moon. Mr. North, who is stationed
at Camp Dix, expects to be ordered
abroad very soon, and the bride will
return to Oberlin college to finish
her college year.
Miss Dorothy Wright, sister of the
bride, will accompany Mr. and Mrs.
North as far as St. Louis, where she
is taking the nurse's training course
at Barnes hospital.
The bride is a graduate of Central
high school, and following her grad
uation studied for a year in a private
school in Berne, Switzerland, special
izing in the languages. She was ac
companied by Miss Eleanor Carpen
ter of this city, the party returning
just after the outbreak of the war.

Red Cross Chairman No. 4
A. W. FITZSIMONS.
The Omaha Woman's club auxiliary is a very earnest, busy unit. The
work consists of surgical dressings. Upon the resignation of Mrs. J. B.
Coningham, her assistant, Mrs. A. W. Fitzsimons, was appointed chairman
and under her leadership excellent work is being done by the unit.
This auxiliary, which was organized last fall, is one of the largest, since
it has 89 members. The fact that the workers completed their April quota
in the first two meetings of the month testifies to their capability and zeal.
Mrs. Fitzsimons is one of the group of attractive young matrons who
did so much to make the last year's work of the political and social science
department of the Woman's club so successful. She served on the courtesies
committee and had a pleasant greeting for each newcomer.

High School Boys
To Make Red Cross
Surgical Bandages
Boys of the Demosthenian Debat
ing society of Otntral High school
will do their bit for their country in
a new and unusual way for boys.
A class in making surgical dress
ings for the Red Cross will be form
ed under the leadership of Mrs. Ada
Atkinson. The boys will go at it in
the same mann;r as the white-roed
girls and teachers save that they in
tend to accomplish much, much more
than the workers of the gentler sex.
The class will meet once a week
under the dire:tion of one of the
teachers and will makethe dressings
so badly needed by the boys in
France. They may take an example
from the boys of the North High
school, Minneapolis, who, led by a
foot ball player, have thrown fears
of pride to the winds and have formed
a sugical dressing class. T( is reported
that the girls are doubling their
efforts to keep up to the boys.
All boys of the school who are in
terested and willing to do their bit
are requested to register whh Mrs.
Atkinson. Boys from other former
literary societies are also invited.
Only two societies remain which have
not become war work classes for the
period f the war.
Members of the debating society
held a preliminary meeting in Cen
tral i-iigh scnool this atternoon.to
plan details for the organization of
their Red Cross unit.
River Reeds Used
For Paper Making
To meet the war-time paper short
age in Great Britian paper manufac.
turers ' are experimenting with the
river reeds found along the banks" ol
the Tay near Dundee, ScotlandT In
formation received by the Bureau ol
Foreign and Domestic Commerce is
to the effect that paper, at least that
of rough fiber, can be manufactured
from this material, the only difficul
ties encountered being the brittle
ness of the grass and its tendency to
break into short pieces after it hai
"steepjng" process may be adopted
that will overcome these drawbacks
and render the grass capable of being
converted into good salable paper,
and that in the course of a few months
a new and fairly important industry
may be established on "the banks of
the Tay.

Advice to Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Writing to Soldiers.
Deur JIis Fairfax:
I am IS. For the last few month 1
have been eorreepondtns with a foldler
whom I do not know. These letters art
Interesting and not at all personal. My
parents, however, do not wish me to writs
to him, but I think that by writing It la at
least keeping up one soldier's spirits. What
can you suggest? PATRIOTIC
I understand both your point ot vlsw
and that of your parents. Naturally,
they do not want their daughter to writ
to a man of whom she knows absolutely
nothing. They fear a romantlo attach
ment, possible danger, undesirable friend,
ship. Tou, on the other hand, long to d ,
something to help a boy In the uniform
of his country, and you Idealize him bo
cause he wears that uniform. Now, It yoo
can keep your letters Impersonal, I think
It would be wMl not to give a foldler
the hurt of breaking off a correspondence
once begun. Suppose you settle the ques
tion this way: Show your letters to youi
parents, and show his also, even aa-you
would do If you were writing to you
brother. Then, If you still enjoy the tor
respondence undpr their guidance. It will
be safe to go on.
Informal Parties.
My Dear Miss Fairfax Omaha Bee: W
are two girls. 16 years of age, and in read
ing your advice to others in the columni
of The Bee, wj have come to you for ad
vice also.
On evenings when young men calt w
find it verv monotonous to Just talk or, per
haps, play the piano or vlctrola. Could
you suggest some entertainment which w
would enjoy, and which would make th
evening interesting, and make the boys llk
to call. Very truly.
BARBARA AND BETTT.
Why not ask one or two other girls an
boys In and have a game of cards or. per
haps, If you have a vlctrola you could hav
an Inform:, dancing party. I am sure tin.
boys would enjoy these Informal evenlngt
and you will, too.
Three School Girls.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee4 We ara
three girls in high school and wish to know
if It Is proper to allow a boy to place hit
arms around you at any time, especially
when car riding? Also if it Is proper for a
boy to kiss you. who Is vry fond of you
and the feeling is mutual?
Is It proper to ask a young man Into th
house after a Bhow at 10 or 10:30 o'clock!
If so how long should he stay? .
Please Miss Fairfax tell me is It proper
to go with a boy who is lowej In social af- '
fairs than I, but who Is not approved of
by my parents, although she Is well man
nered ?
Is It advisable to become ver fond of a
boy whom you know it will be Impossible
for yowto ever marry, an account of social'
