    THE BEE: OMAHA. TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 8. 1918.
BIG CROWDS AID
CZECHOSLOVAK
LIBERTY BAZAAR
Booths in Auditorium Given
Liberal Patronage; Milligan,
Neb. Sends $3,000; But
ton Receipts Up.
A holiday crowd, filled with the hol
iday spirit, surged through the door
ways of the Municipal auditorium La
bor day from the time the Liberty
bazaar opened at 2 o'clock in the aft-
trtion until midnight.
Everyone in the numerous booths
that line the main fk-r of the build
ing did a rand office business and each
was surrounded day and night with
crowds of patrons.
The Bohemian ladies are noted for
their exquisite needlework and these
were favorite booths, though the
country grocery store and the meat
markets were liberally patronized.
A large sum of money is being real
ized for the Czecho-Slovak army fund
and there is every indication that the
event will not only be a great social,
but also an immense financial suc-
. cess.
Milligan Sends $3,000.
Charles . Stanicka, manager of
the bazaar, received a check Monday
from the Bohemians of Milligan,
Neb., for $3,000 as a contribution
to the fund and was promised $1,000
more from the same source.
Over $2,500 was realized from the
sale of buttons last Saturday, which
was "tag day." Of this $800 was
raised on the South Side The same
young ladies who disposed of the
20,000 buttons on Saturday, were at
;work disposing of more buttons at
iKrug park, Monday, among the
crowds. They met with enthusiastic
response from the picnickers and will
realize a comfortable sum from that
source
On the opening day of the bazaar
the ladies who conduct the apron
booth sold over $200 of their products
and the ladies of the Bohemian
.Catholic society who have charge of
the fancy work booth, did equally
well.
Dancing Is Feature.
There is dancing every evening,
rrhe dancing floor Iks been enlarged
and a fine orchestra furnishes the
music.
Large crowds of out-of-town Bo
hemians and Polish people are in
attendance and all are doing their
share in giving the dn ... booths
good financial patronage.
Tuesday night the special features
of the carnival will be a concert pro
gram by the Omaha Musicians' as
sociation, conducted by Joseph
Kuzicka.
There will also be an interpretation
uf the Czecho-Slovak national dance,
in costume This dance is called the
Bcscda and is orre of the most beauti
ful and graceful of the folk dances of
a race noted for its proficiency and
- t nsichorean art.
Wyoming Potato Growers
Seek Market for Large Crop
""Martin Dimery, former secretary
of the First Trust company of Oma
ha, now engaged in the banking busi
ness in Wyoming, with headquarters
at Riverton, is in Omaha trying to ar
range some means for the marketing
and storage of the immense potato
crop of the Riverton district this fall
and winter.
' Out potato crop this year is one
of the best we have ever had," said
he., "Spuds this vear are in most
cases 12 inches long and eight inches
in circumference. They are sound
and good from center to jacket and as
smooth as a pebble. There is not a
protuberance or a scab on them. The
quality was never so high.
"Unless we can have cars for the
transportation of these potatoes to
the eastern market right soon, our
entire crop is threatened with de
struction, and this will mean a tre
mendous and disheartening loss to
our growers, as well as an irrepair
able waste of food supplies of the
country."

casualty list given out by the War

Ed Wolverton to Go East;
May Head Insurance Club
Ed. Wolverton will leave Tuesday
Jor a month's trip to the east. He will
go direct to Boston. From there he
will go to New London, Conn., where
.the international convention of the
$200,000 club will be held. This is an
' organization of life insurance men,
and Wolverton will probably be de-
' dared either president or vice presi
dent because he has sold more life
insurance in the last year than any
other agent in his company. After the
convention he will spend a week in
New York and a week in Washing
ton, visiting his brother, Capt. David
Wolverton of the quartermaster's
cjrps. and other Omaha people.
-Hoover Means Nohthing to

'of J. Berkowitz, 1502 North Twenty
fourth street, and stole 500 pounds of
' sugar and then escaped without even
leaving a sugar card. They also took

AT THE
THEATERS
Vaudeville's greatest entertainer,
Ben Welch, appears at the Gayety
theater twice daily all week with his
justly famous big v show. There is
something about Ben Welch and his
big show which commends itself to
amusement lovers. The first part and
burlesque are just jolly, bits of tom
foolery that are never loud, never
vulgar, always refined and never fail
to send away a well satisfied audi
ence at the close of the performance.
There are two hours and a half of
music, song and drollery with never
a minute that is slow or dull in
other words, it is one round of jollity
from the rise to fall of the curtain.
The comedians are exceedingly
funny, the chorus girls are decidedly
pretty, the songs have points to them
and the music is catchy. There are
striking and effective stage costumes,
elaborate scenery, stage pictures that
please the eye and snatches of com
edy that make you laugh in spite of
yourself. Besides Ben Welch, the
cast includes Dolly Morrissey, Ev
elyn Cunningham, Pat Kearney,
Frank P. Murphy, Frankie Martin,
George B. Alexander, Jack Barton,
and a singing and dancinsr chorus
of 20.
Labor day yielded to the Orpheum
capacity attendance, both for the mat
inee and evening performance. Mon
day evening, being society night,
greatly augmented the patronage for
the current show which is headed by
the patriotic allegory, "All for De
mocracy." Another notable feature
of the bill is the American prima
donna, Llora Hoffman. Her act is
a high class concert number. A
dainty skit is contributed by J. K.
Emmett and Mary E. Ryan. They
present a fantasy called "Wishland."
Pifty miles of film were used to
photograph Annette Kellerman's new
sea production, "Queen of the Sea."
What is unquestionably the best ex
position of what "Our Boys" have
to contend with "Over There" is the
stellar attraction at the Empress
theater for the first half of the week
"On the Frontier of Freedom," pro
duced, staged and presented by Capt.
L. E. Ransom, late of the American
expeditionary forces and Lt. J. F.
Hewitt of the Royal flying corps,
British army.
It was a fortunate thing for Ameri
can theater-goers when Montague
Glass and Jules Eckert Goodman de
cided to transfer the activities of the
celebrated partners, "Abe" Potash
and "Mawruss" Perlmutter, from the
cloak and suit business to the more
novel and interesting world of the
movies'. The result of this inspira
tion is "Business Before Pleasure,"
the great Eltinge theater comedy
success of the. season 1917-18, which
A. H. Woods is presenting at the
Boyd theater this week. It is as
movie magnates in "Business Before
Pleasure," the third and latest of the
famous series of Potash and Perlmut
ter comedies, that "Abe" Potash and
"Mawruss" Perlmutter are presented
at their funniest and most whimsical.

Shower Baths at City Mission.
Last week was the first week of use
of the new shower bath in the base
ment of the City Mission. Forty little
boys romped under its cooling
streams the first night it was opened,
and twenty-seven little girls enjoyed
it the first day. There are warm
streams and cold streams which can
be properly intermingled, so that
either coolness in warm weather or
grateful warmth on cold days can
be provided, and there is much need
ed ck liness at all seasons. Miss
Mary E. Anthony, resident, asked one
of the little girls when they wanted
to have the use of the baths. "Every
day," they all responded promptly.
So popular has this department be
come that regular hours, have had to
be provided as follows:
Monday evening, Boy Scouts:
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and
friday evenings, boys: Wednesday
afternoon girls; Saturday evening
from 7 to 8, girls, and from 8 to 9,
boys.
Responses to the call for old
clothes, and especially shoes, for the
children who have to go to school
next week have been gratifying.
There are still many, however, who
are not properly clad, and Miss An
thony would be grateful for further
offers of help for these little ones.

LABOR DAY marks the formal
opening of the fall season and
with Omahans returning from
mountain and seaside resorts, there
will be numerous merry parties com
posed of friends separated during the
summer months. A special dinner
dance has been planned for this eve
ning at the Country club and after a
motor ride what could be more de
lightful than a delicious dinner and a
dance or two? Mr. and Mrs. Luther
Drake are planning the largest af
fair, as their guests will number 30.
A golfers' dinner will be given at
the Field club when the losers in this
afternoon's game will be hosts to the
winners. Officers there will be and
pretty girls in profusion for the eve
ning will be spent in dancing and to
the music of the jazzy orchestra
from the Henshaw.
With the arrival of Mr. and Mrs
Gurdon Wattles from Hollywood
our minds were filled with all kiuds
of social doings, but there was time
for only a few, for this evening they
will run away to Washington for a
snort stay. Misses Margaret and
Mary Wattles have two school
friends, Miss Esther Teralcs of New
Haven, Conn., and Miss Elizabeth
Gilman of Boston, visiting them, who
will remain until the end of the week.
The ambitious members of the
Dundee Patriotic club have taken the
literal meaning of this holiday and
will hold the first meeting of the year
at the home of Mrs. Oeorge Water
man. This coterie of women were
the originators of the most unique
benefit affairs given last year and no
doubt more elaborate plans are un
der way for the coining season.-

"Regular as
Clockwork"
You can foretell
the future
You say "The man who could
foretell illness would make a for
tune ! n Of course no man can
in the sense you mean. But you
can tell pretty accurately what to
expect your own body to do.
How?
Get this simple physiology :
Your body machine has to be
repaired. It also must have fuel
to supply heat and energy. Your
food supplies both repair material
and fuel But a furnace always
produces ashes and clinkers. If
these accumulate, the furnace
becomes clogged and cannot work
properly.
If your bowels become clogged
you Buffer from constipation.
Perhaps you hurry to work or
plav and neglect to obey Nature's
call. Waste matter stagnates in
the bowels. You go right on eat
ing, drinking, working. What
happens? The constipation be
comes established. Waste matter
undergoes decay, fermentation and
germ action. Poisons are formed,
absorbed.carried all over the body. ,
They attack the weakest part of
you first.
Then you know you're sick. In
reality you've beengettingsicksince
you missed that first movement.

If you want to keep well wholly
vtll, all the time, so that you're
on your toes every day, remove
that waste.
Many people take pills, castor oil,
purgative mineral waters to force
the bowels to act.
These act, but they irritate, tire
out the intestinal muscles, make
the trouble worse.
Others take "salts, which attract
water to the intestines and flush
the bowels about as gently as a
fire hose. A re-action follows that
makes the intestines dryer than ever
and aggravates the constipation.
You needn't do this and weaken
your system just because all of
your ancestors did.
The Nujol Treatment moves the
waste regularly, and easily. It is
a purely mechanical process, ab
solutely harmless, based on a
simple principle that yon can
move a softened mass out of a tube
more easily than a hard, dry one.
It doesn't gripe you won't know
you have taken anything until af
ter a few days your bowels move
at the regular hour. It makes you
"regular as clockwork."
Don't try to foretell illness. Fore
stall it Don't wait until you an
sick. Keep well now. Your drug
