SOCIETY
DINNER parties bf six and
eight guests are the silver
linings to the dull gray
clouds of "flu" which have settled
down over us all. A number of
prominent hostesses have given
- these informal affairs during the
past week, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel
Burns had as their guests Monday
evening Mr. and Mrs. Charles T.
Kountze, Mr. and Mrs. J. De Forest
Richards, Miss Lynn Curtis and
Mr. E. M. Fairfield. A cozy little
party of six was entertained by
Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Kountze Wed
nesday evening, the dinner table
most attractive with its low mound
of roses. 1
Miss Pauline Hayward quite cap
tivated us all. All the guests this
fall season have been such attrac
tive girls, and the younger set have
quite outdone themselves in enter
taining for them. Miss Hayward
, was honoree at several motor pic
nics, Miss JIazel Peterson giving
one just on the eve of her de
parture. Out on Elkhorn ridge a
huge fire was built and juicy steaks
and potatoes roastod. The gay little
party included Miss Marian Weller,
Miss Hayward, Lt. William Carter,
Lt. Edward Connolly and Major
Van Nostrand.
We expect the social calender to
resume its old-time cheerful look
for there are sure to be guests from
the east and west for the Thanks
giving season. The huge basket of
gorgeous yellow chrysanthemums
in the florists' windows remind us
of this fall festival, for it will soon
be' here with the family dinner
parties and general jollity. Even
though a world war is being waged
life is not altogether sad.
Try-Outs for Patriotic Show,
Try-outs for the big vaudeville
show to be given by the Girls' Pa
triotic league will be held at Jacobs
hall, the first one at 8 o'clock Wed
nesday evening. Miss Jeanette
White will judge the acts, assisted
by people chosen by her as specially
competent. Prominent musicians
will pass on musical acts and dra
ma'ic critics on sketches.
" Girls who are especially talented
in any way are requested to enter
the try-outs. Clubs or groups of
friends, some of whom are not intra
' hers of the league, may enter by
making snecial arrangements.
Call Miss Frances Range at the
office of the War Camp Community
Service for appointments. Several
acts are already entered and itjs
hoped that every bjt of talent among
Omaha girls may be available. Two
performances w ill be given on dates
to be set as soon as the Brandeis
theater can rearrange its schedule.
The first evening is to be for sol
diers only, at which every man in
uniform will be admitted free, and
the second a paid affair for the gen
eral public.
Motor Corps Episodes,
Driving for the Red Cross motor
corps has its delights Miss Ruth
'Fitzgerald, who is one of the attrac
tive corps, had as passengers one
'Italian, two English and two French
officers for a drive about the city.
All had been serving in this country
and were returning overseas. Miss
Emily Keller also met the troop
train and took two English officers
and one French officer for a drive.
Mrs. Harold Keller was also in
the party and, as she speaks French
fluently, the warriors were delight
fully entertained.
Letter from France.
"Pershing was here and gave a
corking good talk to the men. Met
him with rest of officers and state
that he is and looks the part," Cap
tain Friedrichs of the 36th engineers
. wrote in a recent letter to his
brother, H. (). Friedrichs, auditor
of Omaha Red Cross chapter.

the same rooms which were used by
the women's committee of the Lib
erty loan. The new workers will
use the same files, maps and other
office fixtures which has made the
success of the out-going committee
a splendid example for "fhe new
coming memebers of the united war

closed for even half a day. Friday

Positions That Women
Can Fill.
War Labor Policies Board Lists
Many Lines of Work That Of
fer Good Opportunities.
Among the jobs for which women
are particularly adapted the f flow
ing are listed by the War Labor
Policies board: v
Clerical and cashier service, ac
counting in manufacturing, mercan
tile and financial establishments and
in the offices of transportation
companies and other public utilities,
sales clerks and floor walkers in
mercantile establishments, including
department stores, specialty stores,
shoe stores, men's furnishing stores,
florists' shops, jewelry stores, drug
stores and soda fountains.
On the other hand, the board
takes a strong position against the
employment of women in places
where they are likely to suffer
physically or morally, as for exam
ple, barrooms, poolrooms, in or
about mines, smelters and quarries,
Kor on furnace work in glass works.
Girls under 21 years of age should
not be employed tor messenger
service, as bell boys in hotels of
clubs, as elevator operators, or in
street -car and elevated transporta
tion service. The recruiting of
mothers of young children for war
industries is to be discouraged.
The management of the Ontario
Agricultural college has decided to
admit women to all of the regular
college courses, largely in recogni
tion of the excellent assistance they
gave on the farms during the past
summer.

Martha Washington to
House Red Crossers
In order to provide comfortable
quarters for its workers while wait
ing in New York for the sailing of
their ships, the Red Cross has se
cured permanent accommodation at
the Martha Washington hotel,
29 East Twenty-ninth street, con
sisting of fifty bed-rooms, sitting
room, assembly room and a special
entrance.
Meals at fixed prices will be serv
ed, and representativesof the Red
Cross will be constantlypresent to
give information and instructions to
the overseas candidates and to make
their stay as pleasant and profitable
as possible. Intensive instruction in
French, in various branches of Red
Cross work, helpful lectures on for
eign conditions, traveling, money,
etc., will be given.
This provision will take the place
of the regular allowance made for
the stay in New York, which will be
discontinued. Provision will still be
made for maintenance on the jour
ney inhis country.
In case, owing to delayed sailings,
the number of persons waiting in
New York should , exceed the pro
vision at the Martha Washington,
other quarters will be arranged for.
The Martha Washington gained
prominence as the only hotel in the
world catering exclusively to wo
men's patronage.
The United States Ordnance de
partment, the American Foundry
men's association and the National
Founders' association have adopted
a ruling that a woman engaged in
industrial work shall not lift weights
in excess of twenty-five pounds.
BEAUTY SPECIALIST
TELLS SECRET
,
A Beauty Specialist Gives Simple
Home Madia Recipe to Darken
Gray Hair.
Mrs. M. D. Gillespie, ajwell known
beauty specialist of Kansas City, re
cently gave out the following state
ment regarding gray hair:
"Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home, at very little cost,
theft will darken gray hair, and make
it soft and glossy. To a half pint of
water add 1 ounce of bay rum, a
small box of Barbo Compound and
4 ounce of glycerine. These in
gredients can be bought at any drug
store at very little cost, or the drug
gists will put it up for you. Apply
to the hair twice a week until the
desired shade is obtained. This will
make a gray haired person look
twenty years younger. This is not
a dye, it does not color the most
delipate scalp, is not sticky or greasy
and does not rub off." Adv.

The little black bag came home

With the clothes he wore when he

The neat new suit of navy blue
The pretty pink shirt and the tan
shoes too;
Tenderly, lovingly, I put them away,
For I know, I know, on some fine
day
When victory is won and the world
is free
My boy will come sailing home to
me.
Young son of mine, boy of my
dreams!
I long for him so that sometimes
it seems
I hear his quick, light step, on the
stair, '
I seem to see him standing there
With a smile on his face and the
vindin his hair,
And my heart sobs out this mother's
prayer:
"Dear God, bring him back to me,
When victory's won and the world
is free."
