Mrs. F. S. Kalk, Mother
of Dead Hero, Off to
France for War Work
Mrs. T. F. Kennedy is home from
New York, Where she; went to see
her sister, Mrs. F. S. Falk, off for
France to do war work. Mrs. Kalk's
only son, Lt Stanton Kalk, gave his
life at his post of duty when the John
Jacob Jones sank several months ago.
Mrs. T. F. Kennedy says that half
the women of New York are in uni
form. The khaki of the motor
driver's outfit, the white of the Red
Cross worker and the blue of the
canteen service are all blended in the
crowds seen on Fifth avenue, and
when one has the privilege of seeing
those who are leaving for overseas
duty' it seems that the whole world
has donned some special garb of war
service.
Mrs. Kennedy spent some time
with her sister before Mrs. Kalk's
departure for France, and, as no one
can go across unless they are in some
branch of war service, there is an
immense crowd of uniformed work
ers leaving on every liner. Red
Cross, Knights of Columbus, Canteen
and Y. M. C A. all are represented.
The canteen worker's suit is most at
tractive, ast it is of gray whipcord
with a Jofffe blue collar. With it is
worn a blue hat and shirt waist with
a green cape, which also has its touch
of French blue on the collar.
Mrs. Kalk expressed herself as not
being at all afraid of the submarines,
for she said that if the soldier boys
could brave the dangers ofthe sea,
surely she could. Mrs. Kalk will go
immediately to the Y. M. Q A. in
Paris, where she will be assigned to
some canteen behindthe lines.
The happy custom of standing on
the pier and waving goodby to a de
parting friend or relative is now
denied to those left behind, for the
piers are so closely guarded no one
is allowed to come within 100 yards
of the docks. Mrs. Kennedy says
that she could not even see the ship
on which her sister sailed, for the
godbys have to be spoken so far from
the water front.
For June Bride.
Mrs. J. Abrahamson entertained at
the Blackstone Sunday afternoon hon
oring Mrs- A. Abrams, a recent
bride. The affair was a miscella
neous shower followed by cards. Pink
and white carnations were used in the
decorations and forty-five guests at
tended the affair. Mrs. Abrams, who
was formerly Miss Anna Abraham
son, will leave July 1 for Portland,
Ore., where she will make her home.
SOC
Will Choose Canteen Workers.
Mrs. J. A. Sammis has been an
pointed by the Dundee Woman's Pa
triotic club as chairman of a commit
service abroad with the Red Cross.
It is the object of the league to en
tirely finance one canteen worker and
assist another with the money they
realized from the recent street carni
val. 'The only requirement, other
than those demanded by the Red
Cross, is that the girl must be a resi
dent of Omaha.

ing Wednesday morning. The cere
mony will take place at the Trinity
Episcopal church, Rev. C. Y. Grimes;
a cousin of the bride, performing the
ceremony.
These military weddings are plan
ned in such a hurry that the pretty
bride-to-be has to forego all the pre
nuptial parties and very often even
a white wedding gown, but Miss
Myers will be a true bride, for her
gown will be a mist of tulle over
white satin and her bridesmaid, Miss
Betty Myers, will be gowned in deli
cate pink.
Lieutenant Brando, who is station
ed at American Lakes, expects to sail
very soon for over-seas service, and
his bride will remain with him as
lone as possible. She will then re
turn to Omaha to continue her
nurse's training course at the uni
versity, where she has been studying
for several months, that she, too, may
serve her country in the near future.

of the organ and the violin played by
Mrs. Ed. F, Morearty, jr., and Miss
Clara Snyder the two little flower
girls, Miss Eileen Michealson and
Miss Corrine Morearty entered, all in
pink and white, scattering pink sweet
peas in the path of the bride, who f 61
lowed them.
The bride, Miss Dorothy Mae Mo
rearty, entered on the arm of her
father, Mr. Ed. F. Morearty, and was
met at the altar by the bridegroom,
Mr. Martin J. Conboy with his best
man, Mr. Hilliard Morearty.
The military note was supplied by
the ushers, one of them being Lt.
Charles Morearty of the Fort Omaha
balloon school. It was planned to
have Lt. L. J. Conboy of the United
States navy, as another usher, but,
owing to the submarine dangers on
our eastern coast, he could not obtain
a furlough. Mr. Will Michaelson of

Instead of tying 'the shoes together in

Tablecloths Government
Issue in Germany
"As is well known," says the Berlin
Lokal Anzeiger of March 7, "the use
of tablecloths in public eating places
has been long forbidden, except when
table tops are rough and have no
other appropriate sort of cover. Even
for such cases it is said that there will
soon be issued a prohibition against
which all proprietors concerned vr6e
their objections vigorously.
"The Berlin Union of Hotel pro
prietors and many others interested
called a meeting at the Central hotel
to protest against the further exten
sion of the ban on tablecloths. In the
meeting attention was called to the
distress already prevalent in hotel
circles and , the point accented that
the "enactment of the prohibition
would still further lessen the tax-pay
ing abilities. of the proprietors, as also
that this new rule would impair for
eign respect for Germany.
"The meeting decided upon taking
steps to communicate with . the im
perial, clothing bureau and recalled
that the hotel propietors had already
placed all available household linen
at the disposal of the imperial bureau."
