The affair was very informal, just

For Miss Hayward. .
With the recovery of Miss Pau
,Hne Hayward, the charming guest
of Miss Marion Weller, the younger
girls are planning to fill the week
with affairs in her honor. Miss
Weller will entertain two days this
wfek, probably Tuesday and Thurs

yet all made, but the parties may
' be afternoons of bridge, or perhaps
". just a knittinjr party, with numerous
guests dropping in for a chat and a
cup of tea with the young lady from

forced to postpone her party
planned for Saturday, but will en
lertMn this Saturday. This, too,

! Echoes of the military reception
civen in honor of Colonel and Mrs
' Jacob Wuest at the quarters of Ma
jor and Mrs. k. u crocKeu ai run
Crook. Sunday, tell us that it was
'one of the prettiest affairs ever
given at the post. The younger of
ficers are especially enthusiastic
over these afternoon teas, as they
give one many opportunities for
cozy, chats with pretty girls. Aside
from Colonel and Mrs. Wuest the
. guests from Fort Omaha included
Major and Mrs. R. G. Crawford and
. Major and Mrs. W. J. O'Brien.
PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.
H. D. Neely, John A. O'Keef and O. H
TV'lrth are ipcndlne 10 dayi In 'he Band
hill country on a hunting expedition.
It was large and floppy, the material
being green felt (the crown and top
of the brim checked and the under
part just plain green). A little of
the plain formed a ring around the
top and a satin lutton was in the
center of that. I think it would be
very becoming to almost any school
girl, though.

CHILD'S TONGUE
SECOMES COATED
SF CONSTIPATED
When cross, feverish and sick
jjive "California Syrup
of Figs."
Children love this "fruit laxa
tive," and nothing else cleanses the
tender stomach, liver and bowels so
nicely.
v A child simply will not stop play
ing to empty the bowels, and the re
sult is, they become tightly clogged
with waste, liver gets sluggish, stom
ach sours, then your little one be
comes cross, half-sick, feverish,
don't eat, sleep or act naturally,
breath is bad, system full of cold,
has sore throat, stomach-ache or
diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! See if
tongue is coated, then give a tea
spoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs," and in a few hours all the con
stipated waste, sour bile and undi
gested food passes out of the sys
tem, and you have a well playful
child again.
: Millions of mothers give "Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs" because it is
perfectly harmless; children love it,
.' and it never fails to act on the stom
; ach, liver and bowels. --
- Ask your druggist for a bottle of
' "California Syrup of Figs," which
has full directions for babies, chil
dren of all ages and for grown-ups
plainly printed en the bottle. Be
' ware of counterfeits sold here. Get
the genuine, made by "California
y Fig, Syrup Conramy." Refuse any
ether kind with contempt. Ad. -

Advice to the
Love-Lorn
Women's Work
in War Time
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Jelly-MakJng.l
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Please tell me what I should do to
thicken my grape Jelly? I have
both apple and grape mixed. My
sugar supply Is exhausted. I put up
all my other fruits first and I am
lather short for my Jellies. Will
you please put this In print as soon
as possible, for I am waiting? Is
gelatine good? ANXIOUS.
If your sugar .s gone, you can get
some more by going to the food ad
ministration's office in the Union
Pacific building and securing a per
mit; or, 'ou may use half fruit Juice
and half white corn syrup. There
is no reason why the Jelly should not
jell if you cook it from 15 to 20
minutes before putting the sugar in
and then boll it about Ave minutes
after the sugar Is dissolved. Don't
use genatlne for Jellies that are to
be kept; it makes them tough.
Mother Knows.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a young girl of 16 and have
many boy friends. Whenever I am
at a dance they all want to take me
home and I refuse all of them, for
I think I'm quite young yet. Now,
Miss Fairfax, do you think I did
right or wrong by refusing the young
men, and also, is it proper to go and
dance with a stranger?
I also want to ask you these ques
tion: Is it proper for me to go out
riding at night? A few of the young
men called me up asking me to go
and I refused them because my
mother thinks me too young to go
out at night. Now, Miss Fairfax,
what shall I do not to get the boys
anpry, for some of them are al
ready? And also, is it proper for a
young girl of my age to kiss a fellow
eoodbv. or let the voune man take.
you around the neck? I would not
allow It and have made several of
the young men feel sore. Miss Fair
fax, do you think I did rlijht?
BLUE-EYED L.
Your mother is certainly right.
As a general rule a girl can depend
pretty much on her mother's Judg
ment, as mother has been a girl her
self and understands the ways of
girls and boys from past experience
Ask her what yo i should do. Dancr
with no strangers, unless they are
properly introduced and vouched for
by some responsible older person
If the boys are angry at your refusa'
to disobey your mother they are not
worth caring about. You are better
off without friends than with those
whose influence is bad. Do not al
low the familiarities you mention
from anyone. The boy who feels
"sore" is not the kind whose com
pany is of value to you. So man
little girls like you seem to like an
unhealthy atmosphere of false sen
timent
Mrs. Mallory Resigns.
Mrs. C A. Mallory, hostess under
auspices of the war camp commu
nity service at Fort Omaha, has re
signed, and Mrs. Charles E. Johan
nes has been appointed in her place.
Mrs. Johannes was formerly host
ess of the Y. W. C. A. hut at Camp
Pike and has been one of Mrs. Mal
lory's assistants at Fort Omaha for
several weeks.
The resignation of Mrs. Mallory
was accepted by the war camp com
munity service with deep regret,
and is a most unwelcome bit of
news to the soldiers stationed there.
The hospitality of the Mallory
home will still be open to the young
men in khaki, as heretofore, but
Mrs. Mallory feels that her strength
will not permit the regular journeys
to the fort and the long. hours spent
there. A book which she is writ
ing requires much of her time and
strength.
Act in Patriotic League Show.
At an out-of-door meeting of di
rectors of the Young Women's He
brew association held in Elmwood
park Sunday, it was decided to put
on an act at the vaudeville show to
be given by the War Camp Com
munity Service soon, which is to be
given as soon as the flu quarantine
will permit. The act will be put in
preparation at once and be ready for
the tryouts among the first. The
girls in this association are all af
filiated with the Patriotic, league.
This was not strictly a business
meeting, as members took their
lunches with them and made a pic
nic affair out of it.
"The girls saw the notice of the
vaudeville show in The Bee," said
Miss Frances Range, director of the
Patriotic clubs, "anj invited me to
he present. We had a fine time and
I know the girls will have a good
act. I hope others will volunteer at
once."

gratitude to you for your generous
work, which has produced such a
magnificent result. I shall trans
mit the check directly to her maj
esty, the queen of Belgium, who will,
I know greatly appreciate your
splendid work. Please convey my
thanks to all those in Omaha who
helped so splendidly. I hope to re
turn some day to Omaha to see andN
thank you in person," wrote Major
Osterrieth.

Too Young for Sentiment.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a fSrirl of 15 and I like a boy
who is of my age very m:ch. He is
very nice and polite, and is it all
right for me to have this boy take
me home from our different high
school parties, etc.? Is it all riffht
for him to kiss me goodnitrht?
There is another girl who also likes
this boy. I think he likes her a lit
tle better than me. What can I do
to make him like me the best?
M. L.
If the boy wants to take you home
it is perfectly proper for you to al
low him to do so. T Jt is not right nor
proper for him to kiss you good- :
night. You are merely children as
yet. Why not remember the fact
and act like children? Forget (
whether the boy likes you or your i
little friend better and all go to- ;
gether. No doubt the boy Hkes her .
better because she is frank and girl
ish and does not try to act grown-up
and sentimental. Dear little girl,
don't lose the beet part of your girl
hood by trying to grow up before
your time.
Canteen Work.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Is there any age limit attached to
canteen work? Does the govern
ment pay your traveling expenses?
To whom can I write for informa
tion? ANXIOUS.
For overseas canteen work the age
limits are 25 to 35 years. For es
pecially well qualified girls the Red
Cross will pay expenses, or part of
them- You can write to Mrs. W. T.
Kountze, Nebraska State Red Cross,
Omaha, and she will give you all the
information in regard to Red Cross
canteen work.
