Writes f SMtoaira Scare
Hints of a submarine scare, per
haps a U-boat attack, on one of
the ships carrying members of
Nebraska base hospital unit No. 49,
overseas are contained in a letter
Mrs. U. E. Ludwick and Miss Alta
Anson received from their sister,
Miss Besse Anson, now in France.
"When we disembarked here in
England we were just about the hap
piest bunch on earth. I'll tell you
when I get back, of the exciting ex
perience .ve had, an experience no
one could have in time of peace. We
spent one whole day of thrills, but
I wasn't the least bit frightened and
can say the same for the majority.
It seems good to be able to undress
and go to bed without cuddling a
life preserver. When we landed in
England, each was given a letter
of greeting from the king which
made us feel welcome. Crowds of
women and children were at the
station where we took our train and
sang songs and waved the Star
Spangled Banner and the Union
Jack. The children sang, "The
Yanks are Coming," as we were
crossing on the ferry boat.
As we came along on the train
yesterday, people were leaning out
of the windows, on fences or any
place they could get and waving
flags at us. Some of the flags only
had "Welcome" on them.
England is a beautiful country,
but everything seems queer. In
the cars the seats are on the side, as
they are on the South Omaha street
cars, with long stationary tables in
the middle. It was lots of fun eat
ing on the train and a man gave us
a drink of water at one of the sta
tions as we passed. It was about
the thin? good drink I had had since
leaving New York.
We came across the English
channel in a large hospital ship and
they put us to bed in the patients'
wards, with life preservers under
our pillows, as usual. I am glad
not to be listening to distress sig-

us royally, and you would be

there, and they greeted us with
smiles from ear to ear."
Miss Anson took her training in

church.
Swallow angrily, as the
chat of the handsome Rooster with
the Red Bird seemed to grow very
confidential.
"But that's not Mrs. Swallow.
She's purple," said Peggy.
"That's her disguise," answered
Swallow. "Here she pretends to
love me so much she wouldn't look
at another bird, and now see her."
"She's only flirting a bit. That's
every woman's privilege," said
Peggy, soothingly. But it didn't
soothe General Swallow.
"I don't want her to flirt," he
blustered, "And as for that Rooster
I'll spoil his looks in a hurry."
"If she finds she can make you
jealous she will flirt all the more
just to tease you," advised Peggy.
"There's a better way to cure her."
"What's that?" demanded Gen
eral Swallow, calming down a bit.
"Why flirt a little yourself. Make
her jealous!"
"That's just what I'll do. But
with whom shall I flirt?"
"You sjtnight try me," giggled
Peggy.
"Humph!" said General Swallow,
"Parrots are not just my style of
beauty, but I guess you'll do."
His frankness gave Peggy a little
shock, but it was so funny she
wasn't a bit offended.
"How shall we begin," asked
"Smile I Smile 1" said Peggy.
General Swallow forced a sickly
smile, and bent toward Peggy with
a courtly air as he whispered: "I'd
like to wring that Rooster's neck."
Peggy glanced up and caught Mrs.
Swallow's eye. The bride was look
ing at her with horror. She had
apparantly forgotten all about the
Rooster, who stood beside her.
"See, it's working!" said Peggy
softly. General Swallow looked up
quickly.
"Oh, my poor darling. I'll go to
her atonce."
"You'll do nothing of the kind.
j You'll make love to me," said Peggy
severely. General Swallow reluct
antly resumed his loverlike pose,
j while Mrs. Swallow glared and

and strutted off across the green.
As she passed General Swallow she
gave him a bang on the ear and
hissed just one word: "Beastl"
"Wait I You've nearly won," she
urged.
But apparantly he' hadn't won for
soon Mrs. Swallow was deep in flir
tation with the Pheasant.
"See what she's doing now,"
moaned General Swallow. "And a
few minutes ago that very Pheas
ant told me the Rooster was trying
to steal my wife."
What he sa'id popped an idea into
is, and I'm not
going to stand it. I'm going to
thrash these fresh strangers who are
flirting with my wife."
, "No, you're not. You're going
to keep your head and find what the
trouble is. Listen!" She pulled
him behind a tiny bush, where they
could hear an exited discussion go
ing on "among several birds. One
was just finishing speaking:
"I never figured I was working
very hard on the farm, but when 1
look back I can see I've done a lot.
Maybe I was foolish to give all that
work for nothing." j

prevent her rinding the enemies who
were spreading false stories among

But she quickly learned she
