Women of Omaha Will
Enlist to Bake Pies
For Soldier Boys
Expert pie makers are needed.
Every woman who can make lus
cious lemon pies, appetizing apple
pies, gorgeous . grape pies or pies of
any other brand that can only be
described by superlative adjectives,
is asked to register with the War
Camp Community Service -and then
to prove her ability by making one
of her pies fori a soldier boy.
The War Camp Community Ser-
vice is going to have a pie day. It
will be two weeks from next Wed
nesday and will be a day long to be
remembered. The churches of Oma-
. ha will be asked to mobilize their
' most famous manufacturers of the
great American delicacy and report
them for service. If there is any
expert pie baker who is not included
- in. the lists of the church members,
she is asked to register herself.
Then, altogether, one grand pie
feast for the boys at Fort Omaha,
Fort Crook, Florence Field, the quar-
; termaster's department and the navy,
or any other branch of the military
or naval service, in or near Omaha.
The pies will be transported to the
eating places by the War Camp peo
ple. All the experts have to do is to
bake one, or more than one if pre
ferred. The boys like pie better than
anything else eatable. The women of
Omaha have the opportunity to de
monstrate their ability to find their
way to a man's heart through the
avenue that is agreed is the most
likely.
Fortunately, the recruiting offices
are all closed. Otherwise, they would
no doubt be filled to overflowing with
applications from men anxious to
sample the work of Omaha's domes
tic science graduates and old-fashioned
cooks. Some interest is al
ready being expressed as to which of
these branches of the culinary profes
sion will most please the soldiers,
and the results of the contest will
be watched with interest.

FLICKS OF -FASHION
Vogues of the Moment in
Omaha Shops
It is, a truism that events have al
ways had their effect upon fashion.
One of the nattiest serge dresses,
shown m yesterday certainly had an
air militaire about it, with its cape
back and jacket front like the uni
form of a dashing French officer. A
bright cerise and blue checked lining
added a decided note of gayety to the
blue serge cape.
I can't refrain from telling you
about a very unique chapeau I saw in
this same store. It was a high
crowned sailor of navy blue panne
velvet. A band of heavy smocked
silk ornamented in front with a panel
of plain silk and embroidered with a
basket of old-fashioned posies, en
circled the crown.
Whilst I was touring the stores
yesterday morning, I saw Mrs. J. J.
Hess of Council Bluffs shopping with
her charming young daughter, -Gret-chen.
They were evidently in quest
of pretty clothes for Miss Gretchen's
boarding school outlay. Mrs. Hess
looked very cool and summery in a
lovely frock of navy blue voile, with
crisp collar and cuffs of white organdy.
With this she wore a large, black Mi
lan. hat, faced becomingly with black
satin. Miss Gretchen looked excep
tionally smart in a frock of copen blue
voile, and a small chic hat of blue.
WOMEM IN WA1 TIM
Women Serve in Many fields.
"The girl behind the man behind
the gun." A practical talk on this
slogan of the Young Women's Chris
tian association was given by Mrs
Grace Gholson. state director of the
war work campaign in Nebraska at a
meeting Monday afternoon of the
Liberty club at Happy Hollow.
Mrs. Gholson made the astounding
statement that at present .here are
as many women and girls in war 6erv
ice as there are men. This takes in
the "Red Cross, the Waacs, the Youn
Women's Christian association and
many other activities. She also stated
that women were in all work thi ....
men were, not even excluding i' ;
actual fighting, citing the Russian
Legion of Death to illustrate the fact.
Mrs. Carrie M. Speillman, grand
matron of the Eastern Star, was pres
ent and gave greetings from the state
board.
Call for Applications.
All volunteers in the United States
student nurses reserve are asked to
call in the vestibule of the county
court house where application blanks
will be furnished them, Mrs. C. S. El
gutter in charge.
Three more girls enlisted after the
drive closed Saturday, which brings
the total for Omaha up to 212.
A call for help is issued by the Red
Cross public workshop in the Keeline
building. The mending of soldiers'
uniforms is the work for August, and
there are 400 of them' to be re
paired. "If some of the women in town
who have not been working with us
could give us a day fiow and then,
or even an occasional hour or two."
said Mrs. H. B. Robinson, chairman
for August, "it would be a great help
to us and enable us to get them done
in time to get a little vacation."
The uniforms are clean, just from
the laundry, and the work is not dis
agreeable. If help is not forthcom
ing, the faithful few who have, been
working all summer will have to keep
on all through the dog days to com
plete the mending.
A Paisley shawl and two mourn
ing veils are among the contributions
to the salvage department. These will
be sold at a reduced cost Mrs. Frank
Adams is asking local merchants for
the use or gift of a standard or frame
for hanging garments, which is need
ed in salvage headquarters.
Keep Zinc Away From
Your Preserves
Do not use galvanized utensils in
making preserves, jellies or fruit
juices, the bureau of chemistry of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture advises. Some of the zinc with
which the vessels are galvanized may
be changed to salts of zinc, which will
give the product an acrid and as
tringent taste and render it unsuita
ble for human use. Moreover, the
dissolving of this zinc coating tends
to ruin the container. The use of gal
vanized utensils for boiling down
fruit juice is especially risky.
The choice of white for wedding
gowns is of comparatively modern
origin. The Roman brides wore .yel
low and in most eastern ''countries
pink is the bridal color.

L ADVICE TO THE $
LOVELOM .
TeU Her.
Dear Mies Fairfax. Omaha Bee! I have
for some time read your advice to people
In The Omaha Bee, never expecting to
call on you for advice, but your advlcea
eem eood In moit cases, ao I am asking
you to help me. I am a young man of 1
ycara and in love with a girl two years
my senior. I had been keeping steady
company with her for over a year. Two
months' ago I went out with anotner gin
friend. I admit I did wrong, but what
should I do to win back the girl I love?
She has treated me cold ever since I did
this. But I shall never do It again, as I
think too much of her. Please answer this
In The Bee. ANXIOUS.
Why not explain to the girl Just as you
have to me. When she understands I am
sure she will forgive you.
Returning Gifts.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee: have
been an interested reader to your helpful
advice. Where could I get particulars about
filing on a homestead? I am IS years old
and have been keeping comrany with a
young man two years my senior. He has
asked met to return a ring, which one of
my old friends gave me last year. He aald
If I did he would give me a prettier one.
Now Miss Fairfax, I am afraid If I re
turn this ring he will think I am doing
It to get another one. Thla ring was only
a friendship ring with an opal set. I don't
care to return It, but will wait for your
advice. Am I old enough to file on a
homestead If I am, about how much do
I need to start on Can young glrla my
age wear big bowl tied on top of their
heads? I thank you very much for your
advice. Please do not print my name,
as I am a popular girl, and don't
care tor any one to know my perplexing
question.
If you are engaged to this man he would
be justified In asking you to return the
ring, but If be la merely a friend, I can
not 'see why you should comply with his
request, unless you wish to. Too must be
21 years old before you can file on a home
stead. Nineteen li a little too old for bows. I
think, you can arrange It some other way
that will 'be girlish.
Too glow I
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I have
a serious problem (to me) which I wish you
would help me solve. Some years ago I
met a girl whom I learned to love very
deeply, and went about with her a good
deal. The affair had not reached the stage
where we had an understanding, and we
were both free to go and come with whom
ever we pleased. Later, another young man
came ajong and paid considerable attention
to the girl. I continued to see her oc
casionally, but tlever talked about the
future in a serious manner, and probably
showed less Interest In her unintentionally.
She seemed to enjoy my company and I
rather think she cared a little. Soon, how
ever, she became engaged to this young
man, and, of course, I discontinued my at
tention to her. They have been engaged
now over a year but they are not seen
around much. I am deeply in love with her,
which I know, because my love has not died
out in all these years.
Now, what I wish to know Is this: Would
It be fair to her and the young man If I
should ask her to grant me an opportunity
of having a frank and serious talk with her,
and tell her my feelings, so she will know
both sides, and let her then choose?
"ON THE SQUARE."
"He who hesitates Is lost," and you were
too alow, my friend. If this young woman
Is now engaged to another man I would
wait until I was sure that her engagement
was broken before I told her of my feeling-.
I like the sensible tone of your letter
and am sorry that this happiness has
slipped away from you, but next time,
hurry, before some other man steps in.

she could make much money for the Red

he finds a German apy at work.)
A S TEGGY made the discovery
A that the foreman was secretly
" injuring the airplane, a young
man in an army aviator's unifrom
entered the room. The foreman
quickly slipped his file into a pocket
and pretended to be giving the ma
chine a final inspection.
"Got her ready for me, Carl?" cried
the young man.
"She's fine and fit, Lieutenant
Young," answered Carl.
"Good," responded Lieutenant
Young. "She looks like a blinger!
I'll have a chance to test her in real
action today. We're going after those
German U-boats with every machine
we can get."
Lieutenant Young was so much ab
sorbed in admiring the seaplane that
he did not notice the gleam in Carl's
eye. Peggy saw it, however, and she
clenched her fists. She wasn't going
to let the foreman send this brave
young officer to his doom if she could
help it.
The seaplane was mounted on a
truck and workmen called by the
foreman quickly ran it out of a large
door to an incline used in launching
the machines upon the bay on which
the factory faced.
Peggy ran after. She didn t know
just now to warn the lieutenant. She
was invisible because of the effects of
Camouflage Perfume, and she was so
tiny she couldn't whisper in his ear.
By the times he reached the incline
Lieutenant Young had climcd' into
the pilot's scat. i
"You've tested all the wires and

My Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Would you kindly give me the names ot
both a naval and army cantonment In the

kindly tell me someone who can? If tha

air, lifting her to the cockpit that in
closed the officer and the controls
with which he worked the seaplane.
Peggy leaned far over and shouted:
"Look at your wires 1 They've
been cutl"
Motors popping within the factory
drowned her tiny voice so that it
scarcely p;ot through Lieutenant
Young's aviator helmet. Yet he heard
her and looked around to see who
was speaking. Of course she was in
visible, and when he saw no one he
thought his imagination was playing
tricks on him. So he prepared to
start his engine. 1
"Look at your wires." again
screamed Peggy, as loudly as she
could.
The warning worried Lieutenant
Young, who evidently thought it was
just a fancy of his mind. He exam
ined the wires close to the cockpit,
but not at their other ends, where
Carl had filed them.
"Are you sure the wires are all
right?" he called to the foreman.
"Sure I'm sure," repeated Carl, get
ting his English tangled up in his
nervousness. "I just looked at them."
Lieutenant Young put out his hand
to his throttle. Peggy was desperate.
She called on General Swallow for
help.
"Show him the wires are cut," she
screamed. "Rap on them I Tear
theml"
General Swallow acted instantly. He
hammered at the cut wires with his
beak, shaking them and making the
putty fly from the filled places. Lieu
tenant Young couldn't see General
Swallow because of the effects of the
Camouflage Perfume, but he did see
the quivering wires and the flying bits
of putty. He climbed out on the wings
of the seaplane and reached up to the
wires. In a moment he had found
the cuts made by the file.
Carl went pale as he saw that his
evil work was discovered. Peggy saw
him move as if to run away. Then,
like an actor, he forced an uncon
cerned smile to his lips and came to
the side of the machine.
"Anything wrong?"' he said.
Lieutenant Young stepped back
from the injured wires and looked
Carl full in the fae.
"What made you think there might
be something wrong" he asked in a
very calm, very cold voice. "You just
said the wires were all right."
"That's what the inspector said,"
quickly answered Carl.
Lieutenant Young called to the in

come here?" Lieutenant Young point
ed to the wires. "Did you give your
approval to these wires?"
The inspector carefully examined
the wires. Then he grew as white as
Carl had been.
"Some one has tampered with
them," he whispered to Lieutenant
Young. The officer, his face set hard
and stern, and the boyish fun all gone
out of it, nodded his head.
"That's plain to be seen," he said.
He looked Carl square in the eye.
"Foreman Carl, you and your crew
were the only persons who touched
this seaplane after its inspection. Line
up here.
Nine men lined up with Carl.
"Which of you 10 tampered with
the wires?
The men looked at him in astonish
ment, even Carl simulating surprise.
No one answered.
Peggy turned eagerly to General
Swallow. '
"Make him confess," she cried. "The
way you did Blue Jay."
That was enough for General Swal
low. He darted to Carl's shoulder and
seized him by the ear, nipping it
fiercely. The foreman let out a yell of
pain and fear.
"W owl" he screamed, jumping for
ward. "Wow I Wowl"
"Humph!" muttered Lieutenant
Young. "I half suspected it."
"No, no, nol" yelled Carl. "It wasn't
me I"
General Swallow nipped his ear
again, and Carl screamed the lounder.
"Pull the file from his pocket,"
cried Peggy. General Swallow let go
Carl's ear and jerked the file partly
out of his jumper pocket. Lieutenant
Young saw it, stepped forward jmd
took the file. He fitted it to the marks
in the wires. Then nodded his head
and beckoned to two guards.
"Place this man under arrest 1" he
ordered.
