There will be a great demand for teachers and the University of Omaha will meet this need by offering a complete course in kindergarten training. This work will prepare for primary train ing, also since the two lines of teaching are so inseparable and sup erintendents are asking for" kinder garten trained primary teachers.

HOE CARDS WILL BE PUT IN EVERY NEBRASKA HOUSE Hog and Cattle Census to be Made of State by School Children October 15. The new message of food con servation, "rigid economy in the use of fundamental foods without strict restrictions" will be carried to every home 'in Nebraska through the medium of home cards. Gurdon W. Wattles, federal food administrator for Nebraska, is hav ing 300,000 of these cards printed, which will be distributed through cut the state next month. "A card will be placed in every home," says Mr. Wattles, "so that Nebraskans may have constant re minders of the suggestions of the food administration. The Nebraska official is working out a method of distribution of these cards which will insure an early completion of the task. "Nebraskans have always loyally responded to every call of the gov ernment and there is no doubt of their response to the new method of conservation. It is much simpler than the methods of limiting the consumer to specified amounts and will accomplish the desired results as effectively as former methods. "With the exception of sugar, no limits are now placed on the foods other than people are asked to limit their purchase to a reasonable sup ply of sixty days. This works no hardships on anyone. The sugar restriction will likely be continued for some time until shipping facili ties are much improved." The Nebraska Food administra tion has another big task before it in making a survey of the hogs and cattle on the farms of the state. This survey will be made by school children and it is Mr. Wattles' am bition that the survey will be com pleted in one day. The date set is October 15. "I hope that every farmer in Ne braska will assist in making the records complete. The school chil dren will call upon each farmer for information which can easily be given. It will include the number of hogs and cattle on the farms and the number of each that will be kill ed for home consumption. "By a little preparation in ad vance of the date, October 15, this information can be prepared and the blanks filled out in a few minutes when they are presented. "I trust that every farmer will constitute himself a committee of one to make this survey successful." Miners Agree to End Strike Upon Conditions Butte, Sept. 22. Striking I. W. V. miners adopted resolutions to night addressed to representatives of the federal government who had addressed them earlier in the day, in which willingness to return to work was evidenced.

The resolutions reiterated the demand for the immediate release of all men arrested for participation in the present strike. Two Aviators Killed at Indianapolis Speedway Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 22.

Sister Gets Punctured Photo Carried by Brother I . ' 1 it If fl3 I ' , Ftl! ::! ''i:::J . . . V . ' . k , TTSIVbSK ifcOMRAD .SKI&EH. Private Conrad Seiler of Hoboken, N. J., Carried this picture over his heart when he went to France with the "American forces. The woman in it" is his only sister, Mrs. J. Remke. The little boy is her son. Seiler took the picture along with him for good luck. Recently Mrs. Remke received it from one of his comrades in France. It was punc tured by a bullet hole and stained with blood. The accompying letter related that Conrad had been killed in action, the bullet passing through the photo into his heart. The bullet puncture is visible in this reproduc tion. The insert is a photo of Pri vate Seiler taken before he left for France. AT THE THEATERS "You're in Love," at the Boyd. ANOTHER "repeater" came back strong at the Boyd yesterday, when Arthur Hammerstein's company presented "You're in Love" to a considerable gathering of peo ple, who recalled its merits from last season. Oscar Figman still heads the company, and extracts a lot of rich humor oit of the role of Wix. He has been coming here for many seasons, and we hope will come for many more, a visitor whose welcome increases. Sur rounding him is a group of earnest young workers, who make the ut most of their opportunities. Elinore McCui ' is especially attractive in the cute little role of Georgiana, and her sleep-walking song, which comes at the end of the second act, is very well done. Virginia Watson is dainty and charming in every way, dances lightly and sings sweetly, while Miss Alice Johnson puts great vim into the role of the domineering aunt who pretends to hate men, hav ing only married three of them. W. H. White's well placed baritone is the best voice in the company, al though Miss McCune and Mr. Brun sen win much applause in their duet in the second act. An eccentric dance by Messrs. Maxson and Brown brings forth insistent calls for more. The engagement ends this evening. Greet Christie McDonald. Christie McDonald, who leads off on this week's Orpheum bill was gen erously received Sunday in "Cupid's Mirror," in which she offers four solo numbers and several other se lect6ns with Irene Rowan and Wil liam Haig, Her stage setting is sumptuous. Paul Decker and Jo seph L. Browning get away with most of the comedy, each having individual styles which win. Mr. Decker is assisted by Faye Cusick, Marie Pavey, who has very warm friends here, and Helen Vallely. "The Ruby Ray" is the title of Mr. Decker's little farce, which has to do principally with the effects of a convivial concoction whose name is indicated by the title of the skit. The ruby ray is a "wicked drink with a kick," and it is rather cruel of Mr. Decker to expose a small bar in this dry community. The Decker laugh is infectious. Mr. Browning makes a genuine hit in his "A Timely Sermon." He ap pears as a sedate man of the cloth and his w-himsicalities evoke hearty applause. Herman and Shirley ap pear in a novelty offering in which the latter displays ability as an acro batic dancer garbed as a ske'eton. Han, Weller and O'Donnell, the "Three Big Voices," offer a melange of mirth and melody. Marion Weeks is a dainty little coloratura soprano with a talent for st,-!"cato notes. The motion picture fen res are the official allied war review and the Or pheum travel weekly. Fred Goodwins, well known Eng lish actor, expects that his present engagement playing opposite May Allison in the making of "The Test ing of Mildred Vane" will be his last appearance for some time, for he is expecting to join the Canadian army in less than a month. an article on "Why We Should Buy More Liberty Bonds." William Russell has completed the biggest film in which he has ever starred, "When a Man Rides Alone," a strong western story. The film was delayed for all the reasons in the world, accidents to the players, sandstorms, bad weather, and Di rector King says it feels like paying off a mortgage to be done. A delightful element of mystery forms one of the pleasing features ot Fiske O'Hara's new play, "Marry in Haste," which he will present at the Brandeis theater for one week, commencing Sunday night, Septem ber 29. The star appears as Lord Richard Leigh, whose father urges him to marry in order to carry on the illustrious name and traditions of his family. How he is extricated from an entanglement and wins fair Lady Evelyn O'Connor makes up the story of the play. A fine cast uppears in Mr. O'Hara's support, and he is heard in four songs writ ten especially for his own use in "Marry in Haste." Klaw and Erlanger's "Miss Spring time" is coming to the Brandeis theater for two nights, October 17 and 18.. PEOPLE OF CUBA UNANIMOUS FOR WAR J HUNS General Menocal Anxious to Work in Harmony With Country That Gave Cu bans Freedom. Washington, Sept. 22. Review of the action taken by Cuba since the entrance of the United States into the war to help the cause of the al lied nations is made in a statement from Gen. Mario G. Menocal, presi dent of Cuba. General Menocal stated that Cuba's declaration of war against Germany was inspired by "the haughty and violent attitude in which an imperialistic power, vain of its might, attempted to impose upon the world an intolerable domi nation" and "the noble ambition of Cuban people to co-operate with all their strength and with all their re sources in the sacred defense of the liberty and sovereignty of all people against th'e malignant and menacing military power." No opposition to the unanimous declaration of war was voiced by any faction of the Cuban people, General Menocal stated. The first action taken by General Menocal following the declaration of war was the seizure of a large number of German steamships which were held in Cuban ports. The Red Cross was then placed on a war basis. To obtain necessary war funds the congress authorized a bond is sue of $30,000,000. General Menocal stated that Cuba has worked with the United States in the conservation of food and the production of sugar has been stimu lated, with the result that the crop this year amounts to 3,500.000 tons, the greatest in the history of the republic. "Cuba's very proximity to the United States," the president stated, "and the constant intercourse be tween he two peoples growing out of the strong bonrl9 of gratitude which join it with the great nation which helped her 20 years ago to gain her independence after long and devastating wars and which on two occasions, that is, after two in terventions, left her in full posses sion of her independence, her sov ereignty and her laws without in terfering with the administration of the government, gives Cubans a pe culiar insight into the high and dis interested motives with which the United States is already taking a predominant part in the war." Supreme Army Command Still Dominates Germany Amsterdam, Sept. 22. On the basis of information from "a com petent source" the Berlin corre spondent of the Dusseldorf Nach richten comes to the conclusion that Chancellor von Hertling does not intend to resign and that offi cial circles do not attach any im portance to the Leipsig Tageblatt's report. The correspondent says, that though the minority of the center and progressive parties are en deavoring to bring about greater parliamentarization of the govern ment the socialists alone favor ab solute parliamentarization. The centrist organ Germania, in an article today, discredits the Leip sig Tageblatt's sensational report about a political crisis. It declares that accord now happily has been reached and the supreme army com mand is and will remain decisive. "PHOTO PIAY.

In addition there is also being shown a Harold Lloyd comedy and the Allied War review. On Tuesday comes Viola Dana in "Blue Jeans." AMrSEMENTS. Ora Carew has lost her voice, at least temporarily. Ora used to be in musical comedy and agreed to sing outdoors for the benefit of the Bel gian relief. And then she followed it up with speeches and now she's glad she's working in the movies or she would be out of a job until she could talk again. Madge Kennedy has not issued any pictures for some time, due to the fact that she has been busy as could be getting one of the finest plays in which she has been seen completed. It will be released un der the title of "A Perfect Lady." Charles Ray is to be an honest to goodness author, with his stuff in print. For the government, in addi tion to the 500-foot film that Ray made to boost the fourth Liberty loan, has asked him to write them Local Stage Notes. As many enthusiastic patrons as could squeeze into the Gayety Sat urday and yesterday applauded to the echo, the entertainment being given by Lewis and Doty and the "Hello, America!" company. The ad vance sale for the entire week is said to be such that there is a great possibility of the Gayety's financial record being shattered. "The Man They Left Behind," which comes to the Boyd tomorrow for five days with matinees Wednes day and Saturday, is a great military play, without a shot being fired, without any morbid sentiment, with a beautiful love story, brilliant com edy situations and will make any father or mother with sons "over there" feel better for having seen it. Messrs. Klaw & Erlanger and George C. Tyler are sending the comedy of "Happiness" to Omaha for a three days' engagement at the Brandeis theater, beginning Thurs day evening, September 26, with matinee on Saturday. People who know life arid how hard it is for some folks to find joy in it, are the most loyal admirers of Jenny, the optimist, one of the most fascinating characters upon the stage. Miss Gladys Hurlbut will play Jenny, and ntlipr nlavers nrominent in the sup port are Leslie Palmer, Beatrice Warren. Eleanor Montell, Farrell Pelly. Florence Walcott and others. Toluieeo and Tuberculosis Investigated, j A recent statistical inquiry published by authority of the aur ; on general of the army on the effect of cigaret smoke upon j the lunps Is of groat Importance. Major ) Webb has found from observation of set- eral hundred thousand soldiers that com paratively few nonpm kers (27 per cent) show signs of chronic bronchial irritation: most smokers, on the other hand, and all clearet Inhalers, show such signs. To bacco smoking has an inflammatory effect upon the throat. However, the proportion of men dis charged for tuberculosis was no higher among the smokers than among the non smokers. The Inhalation of tobacco smoke, apparently, does not cause or aid tuberculosis. It comes as something of a novelty to find that tobacco smokers with Inflamed throats do not show more tuberculosis than non-smokers with nor mal throats. It Is now thought that In flamed tissues do not always provide a favorable field for bacteria! growth, as has been the doctrine, but, being the re sistance of the tissue to Irritation, the Inflamed tissue In some cases confronts bacteria as an embattled enemy. New York World. MONTAGUE LOVE in "To Him Who Hath," will be at the Sun for the last times today. The play tells the story of a young author who goes to prison to save the name of the man who has befriended him. When he comes out into the world again he finds that every man's hand is against him in his attempt to live according to the laws of the land. It is a strong play and one in which Love appears well.

Opti mistic reports on the rapid wane ot pacific or defeatist sentiment among the allied nations were brought back by members of the American social ist mission, which arrived here to day alter a visit to Great Britain, France and Italy. Members of the mission are A- M. Simons, Milwaukee; Charles Edward Russell, New York; Louis Koplin, Girard, Kan., and Alexander How ard, Pittsburgh. In a joint state ment, they said: "We came here almost direct from the meeting of the British trade union congress at Derby. The war resolution, which had been placed upon the program two months before, with every prospect of adoption, demanded immediate peace negotiations. When the con gress met the temper of the country had so changed that the previous resolution was withdrawn, and one calling for negotiations only after Germany had been driven from France and Belgium was substi tuted."
