How Will You Celebrate
V.
Glad, News of Peace?
Does anyone ever pause to consider
what we will all do when it's over
"over there?" It might be amusing
to let the knitting needles rest idly for
a moment and ruminate on just what
you would do first if the glad news
of peace were to come. By question
ing, you will find that nearly every
one has a different idea on just what
would be the proper way to celebrate
the great event.
One Omaha matron when ques
tioned laughingly gave her husband's
sentiments first. It seems that Friend
Husband has been heard to say that
he was going to indulge in a "real
spree. However mat is a pureiy
masculine idea, according to this ma
Iron, and she feels that, the most of
us will think only of giving thanks.
It. is interesting to note what the
boys in uniform who are now in serv
ice overseas .think about the matter.
On chap says he intends" to lie down
in the softest bed in France and sleep
for "an aeon or two," and woe betide
" the pfcrson who disturbs his slumbers.
A faithful knitter has said that she
will burn her needles and indulge in
eyelets, French knots and other fancy
stitches dear to the heart of those
who once worked with embroidery
hoops. The lovers of sugar avow
that they will indulge their sweet
tooth in all the sweetmeats they can
find, and those who have found the
coarse flours a Wardship will enjoy
once more the luxury of white bread.
The first day1 of peace will be a
mad, disorganized day if everyone
keeps their promises to do all the
things they have planned in the way
of celebration.
It is safe to say, however, that the
old careless ways will never come
back completely. Habits which we
have formed in these war days will
clingo us, and it is doubtful if the
"before the. war" extravagances win
ever again be in vogue.
Canning Auction Saturday.
' Perfectly canned fruit and vegeta
bles will be sold at auction Saturday
night at the headquarters of the Boys

teenth street, opposite tllie court

o'clock, with Auctioneer H. H. Clai
borne on the block. Some of the

up their cans, but most of them are
willing to gjve one can each to the
good cause.

tending the fair. "Mothers may be
assured," says Miss Sarah Canfield,
"that the winning teams and individ
uals who attend the fair will be

after."
