Women all over the country will celebrate on August 13th the 100th birthday of Lucy Stone. A Massachusetts farmer's daughter, the has been called "the morning star of the woman's rights movement." She began her public work for equal buffrage five years before Susan B. Anthony. She met ridicule and oppo sition, but largely disarmed it by . her tweet voice and her almost magical eloquence. When she was bom there were no free public high schools for girls; they were not admitted lo college, or to the professions. Public opinion forbade women to speak, ridiculed them if they wrote for : publication, and limited them to a very few ill paid occupations. The world for women has been revolutionized, largely through the ef forts ofrLucy Stem and her co-work-trs. She was the first Massachusetts woman , to take a college degree (at Oberlin. O., in 1847). Her husband's i-ister, Elizabeth Blackwell. was the 4irst woman to take a medical degree (in' 1849); and when she started prac tice in New York City ne had tobuy a house, because nta respectable board ing house would take in k woman doc tor. Another sister-in-law, Rev. An . toinette Brown, Blackwell D. D.. was the first, woman to be ordained a minister (in 1853). Now the United States census shows more than 5,000 women doctors and more than 3,000 women ministers and preachers. Then no woman could vote. Now women have fU suffrage throughout more than half the territory of the United .States. ' Instruction in Games. ,' At a meeting of representatives of all the girls' clubs in the Patriotic league held Friday evening in the Young Women's Christian associa tion, Miss Clara Julia Anderson of Grinnell college gave instruction in games and dancing for the leaders to teach the rest of the girls in their dubs.

Miss' Louise Dinning, who has been in Paris on a two weeks' leave of ab sence during which she had her pass port renewed, has returned ' to the Belgian Red Cross hospital near Nieuport', where she has charge of a ward.

Organization rf Tnninr T)A Cme work for District No. 4 is going for- wara rapidly under the direction of leaders County Superintendent .'.lice A. Swanson, Holdrege, and Superin tendent C. L. Littel, Cambridge. The first county institute to be held under the organization fwas Furnas county, where each teacher under the lead of Miss Hennegan of Lincoln, knit a 10 inch square, and these were made un . in afghans. The yam was furnished by County Superintendent Fletcher. All teachers were very enthusiastic over the work and decided to start by enrolling, all the pupils in their schoolsas members of the Junior Red ', Cross, and then have each child knit Mrs. Kalk, .Mothe? of Navy Mer6, Writes t V ' r AMUSEMENT ROOM water n n f WRITING TABLES a HOSTESS TABLE 1 I TTT HAT "patriotic-spirited Ameri W ca" women are doing in i France may be gleaned from an interesting insight into the work of a former . Omaha woman, Mrs. Flora Stanton Kalk, who is serving as Y. M. C. A. hostess in one of its huts located in Brest, France, for the comfort ofU. S. naval forces operating in European .waters. Spe cial interest attaches to Mrs. Kalk, who is the sister of Mrs. T. F. Ken nedy of Omaha, because of her son, Lieut. Stanton Kalk, naval hero, who lost hjs life in the sinking of the Jacob Jones. A steamship to be launched in December will be christ ened in his honor, Mrs. Kalk having been asked by the secretary of the navy to do the honors.' The information comes to Mrs. Kennedy in a letter from her sister, enclosing a sketch of the" hut in which she is serving. 'This drawing will give you some idea of our hut. Off, behind the canteen are some more rooms for the Y. M. C A. men workers. As you can see, it is quite a large building and they are adding to .it now, putting up a building for showers and things like that at one end and a gym at the other. There are five women and six or eight men workers. The men are supposed to run the canteen part except that they have to have help so . a woman, goes . on from one and remains until four; then another woman goes on until seven. The mornings are usually very quiet for the men are all busy then and don't get much liberty. Duties of Hostess. "Each day one woman is hostess for the day which means she gets down about, nine o'clock, sees that the place has been cleaned, that the flowers are all fresh, if not goes out and buys new ones; that the books are straightened and back in the cases and that the writing tables are all provided with pens and ink and the checkers are all with the boards. After that she sits at the hostess table and gives paper and envelopes to all who want it and is a bureau of information, taking only enough time off for lunch and di li ne" .' "The rest of us are busy planning other things and helping them get up plays, movies, concerts, lectures and anything that can be gotten up-. This is hard, for after planning everything, a . 10-inch square which will then be made into afghans and delivered to the Senior Red Cross. Later other work will be done. To get the work more fully organ ized an institute will be held at the Oxford auditorium Tuesday. All committees, auxiliaries, all teachers and all others interested in the Red Cross work are invited to attend this meeting, at which L. W. Trester, state director, will speak. ' 7 War Insurance Facts So many questions have come to Miss Sarka Hrbkova, chairman of the Woman's Committee of the State Council of Defense relative to pay ments of war insurance that she has issued the following statement which is authorized by the War department: Under the provisions of the act the beneficiary named does not secure the amount of the policy in a lump sum on the death of the insured, but receives a monthly payment from the govern ment as proceeds from the insurance The payments cover a period of 20. years or 240 months. . For an insuranceyof $1,000 the bene ficiary would receive a monthly pay ment of $5.75 for 20 years. For the maximum insurance of $10,000 the beneficiary would receive a payment- of $57.50 per month fof 20 years. Insurance may be had in any amount from $1,000 to $10,000 in multiples of $500 and the policy is payable on the basis of $5.75 per month for each $1,000 of insur ance for 240 monthly installments. . Proceeds from insurance of soldiers under the-war-risk insurance act can not be attached, assigned, or other wise taken by creditors.

As all the men over here say 'it is a great life if you don't weaken.' Picnics are also gotten up for the different ships, and that takes two or three people away from the, hut all day. . If you have any ideas in the way of amusing things, for goodness sake, let me have them, for when the weather is bad they will not want to be out in town so much." Mrs. Kalk is billeted with a French family. "I have a room on the fourth floor. Breakfast is at 8, and consists of a cup of coffee and some war bread, also butter and sugar for coffee. The coffee is served in huge cups holding fully a pint, and the spoons are large tablespoons, which seems very funny to me. t Food in Brest. "Wc have, lunch at 12. This is a hot meal, but starts with either fish or cold meat, then some kind of a stew with vegetables cooked in it, then cheese, fruit. Dinner is at 6:30 or 7, and we have soup so thick you can al most cut it, next comes a roast, veal or mutton, then vegetables, next a salad, then cheese, then fruit. The family dring a sour-looking beer with both dinner and lunch. Most of the house has bare floors and all old furni ture. My bedroom 'looks like the proverbial attic room, but, being i.tj so high, I have good air (for Brest), and get a very remarkable view of the roofs, chimney pots." "The sanitary conditions here are awful. I can say that it is a good thing I was inoculated for typhoid, paratyphoid, for from the odors, you expect to get anything, or rather everything under- the sun. Some of the streets are so awful you hate to even walk on them." . At a recent banquet given at the Hotel Moderne in Brest honoring a Young Men's Christian association secretary, . Mrs. Kalk met General Harries, also of Omaha. That food was plentiful is evidenced bv the printed menu card, replete with v...r terms. Mrs. Kalk sent to her sister. It includes royal clear and green peas clam soup; filet of soles, garnished with mussels and mushrooms; dressed Langouste Parisian; saute of chfcken of the allies, glace ham, brown sauce; baroft of lamb, roast oversea turkey and watercress; hearts of lettuce salad, ' asparagus with Musselin sauce; vanilla ice cream, pinapple crust, puff pastries, jelly and grape fruit.

The 15fh White Honse wedding Wednesday evening scarcely made a ripple on the surface of the social at mosphere. The president's niece. Miss Alice Wilson, became the bride of Kev. I. S. McElroy, formerly of Columbus, Ga., now pastor of the Presbyterian church at White Sul 1 bur Springs. In all the history of weddings in the historic mansion, this one was witnessed by probably th6 very smallest company. There were hut 16 to sit down at dinner in the state dining room,. after the ceremony in the blue roo-n. There were two guests, oustide the immediate family circles of the bride and bridegroom, Miss Elizabeth Perkins of Mmncie, Ind ami Rev. R. M. Turnbull. who was best man. The bride's onlv at tendant was the bridegroom's sister, Mrs. Crook, of Spartan sburg, S. C, wife of Capt. Martin Crook of the Y. M. C. A. service in France. The blue room, which never admits of much elaborate decoration because of itf. own stately and significant beauty, had a great many maiden hair ferns banked on the mantel and forming a sort of hedge around the oddly shaped oval room. These were studded with white hydrangeas and white flox, blossoms quite out of the ordinary for wedding bowers and al tars. A string sextet played the wedding marches and soft music during the ceremony following the playing "The Star Spangled Banner," when the President and Mrs. Wilson led the way into the blue room just before the entrance of the bridal party. The bride and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph B. Wilson of Baltimore, and the bridegroom with his parents. Rev. and Mrs. I. S. McElroy of Columbia, Ga., arrived at the White House on Tuesday evening in time for dinner with the president and his family. They were joined there on Wednes day morning by the bridegroom's sister., Mrs. Crook, their cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Bryant of Ten nessee, Miss Perkins who came from the Wilson apartment in Baltimore, where she has been visiting, and Rev. Charles L. King of Georgia. There were no other guests save Miss Marg ?ret Wilson and Mr. John Randolph Boiling, brother of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. The flowers which decorated" the White House were all gathered from the old-fashioned garden designed by Mrs. Roosevelt, at the south of the mansion, and from Lafayette park, from the large garden facing the White House doors, on the avenue side of the park. Mr. and Mrs. 'Walter Penlield nee Lucile Bacon of Omaha, returned to Washington on Wednesday morning from Swamscot. The thermomter went to 107 in the shade, and Mrs. Penfield began making their plans for getting down to the Hot Springs of Virginia, at once. It is a much cool er place than it sounds and they have gone down for the week-end, at least. Mrs. Reavis, wife of Representative Reavis of Nebraska, who is now in France, will entertain the Nebraska Girls' Knitting class in her Cleveland park home, next Monday evening. Professor Buck, of the University of Nebraska, who is here for war work, and Mrs. Buck, are established in a home in Fairmont street, and have Mrs. Buck's mother, Mrs. Hall, with them.

It is a disease caused by improper and in sufficient bowel elimination. Many people have only s small -passage in the center of the bowels while the sidea are clogged with old, atale, fermenting matter. They may have a bowel movement every day, but it ia not a complete movement and the old, stale mat ter ataya in the lyatem to ferment and cause trouble. Besides appendicitis, such un clean bowela cause headaches, stomach trou ble and 90 per cent of all other sickness. The old, foul matter sticking to the aides of the bowels often stays In' for months, poisoning the body and causing that list less, tired feeling known as "auto intoxica tion." HOW TO AVOID TROUBLE The way' to avoid sickness and to keep feeling full of ambition is to watch your bowela. Just as you keep the outaide of your body clean, you ahould also KEEP THE INSIDE CLEAN. It n even more important to keep the bowels clean. than it ia to keep your body washed, because the millions of pores in the thirty feet of bowela quickly absorb poisons generated by decaying food left eareleaaly in the bowels. Don't allow the old, fermenting, filthy stuff to stay in your bowela for weeka, but GET IT OUT and keep it out. Remember, filthy bowela art the cause of most sickness no stomach, liver or any other organ can do Ita work with a foul sesspool aending out gases and poisons.
