    THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 10, 1918.
GOLDEN-HAIRED,
BLUE-EYED BABY
SEEKS MW HOME
Beautiful Nebraska Baby Will
Be Given' Away by Beatrice
Fairfax at The Bee
Office.
: Who wants to adopt a little blue
eyed, golden haired baby girl?
Thia little atom of humanity, seek
ing a home at the age of four weeks,
will be at the office of The Bee Sat
urday from 10 to 12 a. m. and again
from 2 td 4 p. m. 1
The baby is one of those unfortu
nates who come unwelcomed into the
world. Her mother is a mere child,
the daughter of a prominent family in
a small town in the middle west. The
father is not yet 16. It is one of those
rases of lack of sufficient parental
instruction and supervision.
The little mother is willing to give
Iter baby to sme good woman. She
does not care what the religion or
financial circumstances of the family
may be. "Just so they will .make a
good woman of her," she said, hold
ing the little one closer.
There is no lack of maternal love
in the child mother, but her parents
are willing to take her back home
and give her a fresh start in life, pro
viding she will give up 'the baby. If
she keeps it she cannot provide for
herself nor her. baby daughter. The
children are toU young to marry with
out their parents' consent, and the
parents believe they are too ytyng to
marry under any circumstances.
So the baby is to be given away.
Those applying will have to convince
Beatrice Fairfax of The Bee and the
social workers she has asked for
assistance, that they are proper per
sons to have the child. Come armed
with references. The little one is per
fectly healthy, and well developed.
She sleeps all the time, and would not
even open her eyes. to get her pic
ture taken. Legal papers' can be se
cured, and the mother will give abso
lute possession. Baby gives promise
of being a beaytiful child, , as she
looks like her pretty mother.
Two Girls With Vigorous
Vocabularies Wake Up Cops
Marie Robinson and Mable Barn

house. 220 North Nineteenth street,
at 5 o clock Thursday night and book

years, but they, possessed a vocabul

Central police station sit up and rub

Farmers to Market Wheat
The national' rood administration
has asked the Nebraska office to sug

This comes from Washington, not as
a demand, but merely as a friendly
Misrsrstion. .:'"."'...'.' ."., ). '

Return Load Campaign
Enlists Forty Trucks
Now Hauling to Omaha
, Forty automobile trucks have been
enlisted in the "return, load" cam
paign organized. by the Chamber of
Commerce, announces Jf.! M, Gillen;
manager of the chamber's industrial
bureau. Responses have been re
ceived from 50 merchants in Omaha,
Elkhorn, Bellevue, Valley, Calhoun,
Gretna, Greenwood, Lincoln and
Plattsmouth, among Nebraska towns,
and from Oakland, Persia, Pacific
Junction, Magnolia, Shenandoah, Red
Oak, Honey Creek and Glenwood,
among Iowa towns,
The purpose of the campaign is
to save railroad traffic by encouraging
automobile truck owners to haul
loads both in and out of Omaha, in
stead of returning with an empty
truck after one load has been hauled.
By this means, it js hoped to save
railroad congestion.
Plans for the campaign include the
establishment of a central office in
Omaha at which truck drivers who
have brought loads into Omaha can
learn where they may secure a re-
Nurn load:

Want 40,000 Women Each
to' Take Place of a Soldier
Plans for the co-operation of the
Chamber of Commerce and the
United States Co-operative Employ
ment Bureau were laid at a confer
ence Friday morning between Com
missioner Robert M. Manley ot the
Chamber and Mrs. Lila B. DeWolf of
the employment bureau. The con
ference followed a proclamation by
the chamber calling on 40,000 women
in Nebraska to take the place of
40,000 men who have gone td war. It
is realized that there are not this
many women out of employment, but
it is hoped to induce many women to
enter service even though they may
not need the wages they would car.
Prescriptions
The compounding of Prescrip
tions at all times receives pre
ferred attention in all the Sher
man & McConnell stores, and to
this end these departments are
quite apart from the salesroom
"rustle and bustle" incident to our
busy stores. No prescription so
"hard" we cannot solve its mys
teries. None so simple that it does
not receive careful attention.
