Poor Platinum Jewelry!
Poor Sacrificing Women !
Poor States Not Joining!
Far from precious than silver and
gold is the silvery metal, platinum,
which his sprung into such favor dur
ing the past few years. The most ex
quisite jewelry has Mr its setting this
valuable metal and fortunate indeed is
the maid or matron who finds in the
toe of her Christmas stocking a tiny
velvet box holding a luminous jewel
flashing from its setting of platinum.
All this was in the halcyon days be
fore the war, for" now the time has
come when we must forego the pleas
ures of these beautiful bits of jewelry
that the government may have all the
platinum. In 14 different states clubs
nave been formed of women who have
pledged themselves to neither buy
nor accept as gifts jewels set in plati
num. The movement began in the
east by the Woman's National League
for the Preservation of Platinum and
every danew clubs are being listed
under this banner.
Will Omaha join the movement?
A number of matrons have beautiful
jewelry of this kind. Mrs. A. I. Root
has several very handsome rings. Mrs.
E. A. Higgins wears one, a lovely
wnsiwar.cn, wnicn is everywnere she
goes, also a handsome bar pin. Mrs.
Charles Kountze has some beautiful
pieces set in platinum and many of
the younger matrons have chosen this
setting for their engagement and wed
dig rings.
With the call of Uncle Sam for this
metal to be used in the signal instru
ments and delicate gun mechanisms
Omaha women will respond as they
have to all other patriotic pleas, and no
doubt before many months have
passed the pledges will bear the signa
tures of numerous of our prominent
women, and gold and silver will again
come into their own as settings for all
stones.

striking gown of black

bodice of flesh-colored
tulle, is worn with a
scarf of the same tulle

what you ask for when

Advice to the Lovelorn

By BEATRICE F RFAX.
One More Girl.
My dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: We
are two girls of seventeen. We have be.
com acquainted with three good looking
soldiers, wnen we go out with two of the
boys In the evenings, the third Is always
Jealous. Of course. It Is impossible for
three, of the boys to go with us at the
same time, but they never aeem to think so.
ana make very cutting remarks. We do
not like to hurt their feelings and would
like to have your advice on the matter.
Thanking you In advance we are
TWO TROUBLED ONES.
P. Please print this In The Bee as
toon a possible a we wish the advice
very badly.
T. T. O.
' Why sot ask another of your girl friends
to join the party T Then the third man
would be hepy and you wpuld have a
inuch better time.
GW Problems.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am e
young girl IS years old and have a good
many . young friends. I often go riding
and to shows with these friends. Should I
allow them to put their arm around me or
bold my hand If they go no further? All
the other girl allow them to but some of
the girl will not allow it. Many of these
boy try to kiss me. Should I allow them
tot Some of the girls In my crowd put
paint on their face. Would you advise me
to paint my face? If It Is proper, what kind
of paint Is ur.harmful to the skin. I have
been out a few times with a young man who
Is not known to my parents. My parents do
not know this. He seems to be real nice,
has alway treated me respectfully but I do
not like to conceal things from my parents.
Should I Introduce him to my parents?
Please tell me what to sfo. Thanking you
for a quick response, I am, TROUBLED.
Any reader of my column will know my
aentlmente regarding the first question you
ask me for I nave answered It many times.
One thing lead so easily to another that I
feel cure that you will alwaya be glad If
yon do not allow any of these liberties.
' Let Nature give you rosy cheeks. Nourish
ing food, plenty of sleep and exercise will
give you a far better color than any rouge
I could recommend.
Introduce the man to your parents by
all means. He will think far more of you
and you will be much happier If you do
nothing without their consent.
Entertaining a Friend,
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am
at a hotel.
I have a gentleman friend whom I thtnk
a great deal of.
He holds a good position, honest, and I
a praiseworthy man.
He has paid me quite a good deal of at
tention and likes my company.
Is It proper for Bim to come to my room
for a little while In the evening occasional
ly If it Is Impossible to see him any other
time?
Also what colors should I wear? I have
auburn hair, dark eye and fair com
plexion.
Also Is black and gray too sober foe me?
I am 18. HELEN MAT D.
No, don't entertain the young man In your
room. It Is hard when you are living away
from home to find an attractive place to re
ceive your men friends, but I would never
entertain him In my room, no matter bow
long your friendship.
Brown, lavender and blue are good colors
for an auburn-haired girl, and it you have
plenty of color, gray would be becoming
to you. Black may be very dull and old
looking, or It may be very smart, am a red
haired girl In a stylish looking black dress
Is very attractive. "
Making Money.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bes: Tou help
so many. I wonder If you can help me. I
am a married woman with a small child,
living on a ranch without phone or mall
route. I am desirous of earning some
money to get some things for baby that he

Uncle Samuel has modified the "sis
ter rule," but he is taking good care
that he is not used as a matrimonial
bureau.
Mrs. C T. Kountze at the state
Red Cross headquarters is Jir'rectip'
of a message from the national Re
Cross to the effect that sisters of so'
diers are now to be allowed to go f
France' to do Red Cross wok, sub
ject to the following rules:
They. must be duly accredited mem
bers of one of the regular authorized
Red Cross organizations.
Each must be particularly qualifier
for the position she is sent to fill
She must be sent to France as
worker and not because she is a rela
tive. She must make no effort to visit
her relatives in France, whether sick
or well, and if she violates this rule,
the organization sending her is
made responsible for her immediate
return.
. If she marries aji officer or soldier
of the American expeditionary
forces after her arrival, she will be
automatically sent back to the United
States by the organization she is
serving.
. "The modification of this rule will
release a number of competent work
ers who have been unable to go," said
Mrs. Kountze, "and some have - al
ready made application.
From Over the State.
In the Arcadia branch of the Valley
County chapter three women have
earned the right to wear the "500
hour" pin since April 1. Namely: Mrs.
I. J. Copeland, Mrs. C. F. Esterbrook
and Mrs. A. Russell. Mrs. Copeland
had hers earned by July 4. They have
knitted steadily, averaging three to
five pair of socks per week and put in
two and sometimes three afternoons
sewing. One of the group can make
four hospital bed shirts in an after
noon and they will be perfect. If othez
towns this size (700) are doing as
well, "woe be to the kaiser."
To the Public.
Mrs. Adams, chairman of the sal
vage depots, asks that all newspapers
and magazines be securely tied in
packages before they are sent to the
department. When loosely .brought
in' they are almost impossible to han
dle and must be refused.
Do not send medicine bottles, for
they cannot be accepted.
