AVE you caught the step?
The new swagger sway, of
course! Gone is he debu
tante slouch and in its place the
smart and military walk, the swag
ger sway. Nobody knows just how
it originated, butjike leather puttees
and jazz music, it just popped up
unaware and now you see it every
where you go. Watch the stylishly
gowned young women as they pass
you on the street, and you will get
it, all in step, one, two, three! Per
haps it's the, military music, per
haps it's the men in khaki who have
introduced this swinging stride but.
nevertheless, it's here to stay and if
you would be up to the minute you
must change your mincing step of
yesterday to the swagger sway of
the hour.
4 We have much to chat aboiit in a
social way today. The great door
to Pleasure Land has been closed
and barred for four weary weeks bat
now it creaks on its hinges and will
soon swing wide. Parties galore are
being planned to usher in the winter
season in true style. We are deeply
interested as well as charmed with
the first lady at Fort Omaha. Mrs.
Jacob W. S, Wuest. whom, we hear,
is planning to entertain extensively.
Due to the charming army matron
the Officers' club will be opened to'
the feminine friends of the commis
sioned men and .we are hoping to
hear of some very formal dinners and
dances very soon. Mrs. Wuest is
especially interested in the pros
pects of a hostess house at Fort
Omaha and believes strongly in de
veloping the social side of army life.
With so many young and attractive
matron at the two army posts,
there will be much entertaining and
we expect to have a very gay winter.
V , War Benefits.
Benefit dancing parties will now
come thick and fast with the opening
of the gates at Fort Omaha. One of
the largest of these affairs will be
the dance given by the B'nai B'rith
Thursday evening at the Auditorium.
Every .man wearing the uniform of
, his country will be an 'honor guest
and the prettiest girls in town will
laden with cigarets and candy to
tempt your ye and purse. Proceeds
of ,the affair will send a canteen
worker across the seas to do her
.share in winning the great struggle.
We have heard an engagement
or two that may interest you. but
you must, guess the names yourself.
You have passed the young woman
in question many times in the car
driving for the Service League, for
she is active in all branches of war
. work. Many censored letters Come
from the war-ridden countries
across the sea for ''he" who wears
two silver bars, has been in overseas
service for some time. A princess of
the court at the last Ak-Sar-Ben
rnrnnation. she has ever been prom
inent socially and is numbered
among our most attractive girls.
"AUer the war." she says, but one
can' never tell, for the huge trans
norti still olow their way across
the seas, and, perhaps, by some good
fortune the grim war lord may or-
der him home before the war is
won, for many of the officers come
back on special ana mysterious im
- inn. In the i meantime we can
' wait, for it will be one of the most
interesting military wcuumsa
inable.

"We then visited the American
fund for French wounded, which

war fund, run by the smartest
V people. This does not necessarily
imply that the best work is done.

Auditorium Thursday evening. Miss
Blanche Bessel, president, has is
sued an invitation to all soldiers at
Fort 'Omaha and Fort Crook, as
well as soldiers andsailors passing
leaves of absence in the city, to at

Mrs. Emil Rothschild, Mrs. Sam E.

Aliss June Abrams are a quartet of
attractive young women pat

order now in the service, more than
100 in all, have been sent compli
mentary tickets in camps wherever
they are stationed, in token that the
fiii'ls.of the auxiliary bear them in
mind during their absence.
i'roceeds of the dance will be
used to finance an overseas war
worker.
Defense Council
The "America First" campaign
carried on by the Americanization
committee, Mrs. A. C. Troup chair
man, with the immediate purpose of
inducing the foreigner to enroll in
the night schools supported by the
board of education, is under way.
Miss Ida Kubby of the Young
Woman's Hebrew association has
been appointed organizer for the
Second ward, in which the Kellom
school is located. It is planned to
circularize the districts thrqugh
churches, schools, stores and fac
tories and to use the house-to-house
canvass through mothers appointed
by the organizer. Night school
opens November 11.
Mrs. Randulp, organizer" for the
Scandinavian people in the eighth
and ninth wards, reports that the
Scandinavians are already speaking
the American language. This was
ascertained by a survey made by
the board of education under Super
intendent Beveridge. Election Com
missioner Moorhead has consented
to circularize the foreigner through
election booths, to induce attend
ance at the night schools.
Mrs. W. S. Knight, chairman of
the educational committee of the
Omaha Woman's cluh, offers to
place educational pictures in foreign
moving picture houses. The pic
tures are obtained from New Tfiprk.
' The Americanization committee
endorses the establishment of com
munity centers in foreign districts.
Especial mention was made by Mrs.
Christiancy, principal, of the need
at Mason school.
Severe illness in the family of
Mrs. W. S. Halsey, supervisor in
the fifth ward, has prevented any
activity in that section during the
quarantine.
Miss Edith McNett of the student
nurse reserve, has orders to report
to Camp Dodge.
SHE DARKENED HER
GRAY HAIR
Wilf Known Lady Tells How She
Darkened Her Gray Hair By a
Simple Home Made Remedy.
Mrs. E. H. Boots, a well known
resident of Buchanan County, la.,
who darkened her gray hair by a
simple home-made remedy, made the
following statement:
"Any lady or gentleman can dark
en their gray or faded hair, and
make it isoft and glossy with this
simple remedy, which they can mix
at home. To half a pint of water
add 1 ounce of bay rum, one small
box' of Barbo Compound and
ounce of glycerine. These ingredi
erits can be purchased at any drug
store at very little cost. Apply to
the hair every other day until the
gray hair is darkened sufficiently
This is not a dye, it does notcolor
the most delicate scalp; is not sticky
or greasy and does not rub off. It
will make a gray haired person look
10 to 20 years younger. Adv.
seems especially cheap here, prices
being about American pre-war fig
ures. . "
''We had supper at our own hotel,
which seems more English than
French. There are numbers of
Canadian, Australian and English
nurses and British army and Red
Cross officers here. We carefully
prepared a heavy coat, put our
money, passports and flashlights in
our pockets, placed shoesand stock
ings all ready for another raid.
None came, however. Today we
learned a few people were killed in
the other raid, mostly by shrapnel
from the French attacking party,
and that last night Calais was
bombed.
"Today I attended a Red Cross
lecture by Mme. Fuestere, which I
understood very well. This after
noon we went to Neuilly and I
asked for Louise Dinning, but she
was away on leave. The hospital
was wonderful. I will tell you about
it later. , ,
"I was about to describe my wan
derings of last Sunday afternoon,
I believe when sleep overcame me.
I started out by myself as my two
companions were going with a
friend to Versailles. 1 went down
bravely to the Louvre and took an
omnibus (motor). One must tear
off a number from the stand and
get on in turn. This is to avoid
crowding, and could only be neces
sary where people are excitable and
withal lo?e fairness and politeness.
I got off at the Jardin de Luxem
burg near the Odeon only to find
that it was closed, a war measure
I presume. The gardens were
ablaze with red flowers and grass and
trees were very fresh and a pleas
ant change from rows of city houses
without a flower or shrub. The
people were out in crowds to en
joy the benign warmth of Indian
summer and seemed happier than
any of the other folks whom I have
seen.
Mr. and Mrs. Jean Marie Guislain
have given .up their home in Boston,
and taken one of the new apart
ments at 327 West 172nd street,
New York City. Mrs. Guislain was
formerly Miss Rose Coffman.

Open sluices of system each morning and 4
wash away the poisonous, stagnant
matter, says authority.
'li
A glass of hot water with a teaspoonful x of
limestone phosphate in it, drank each
morning before breakfast, keeps 1
v us looking and feeling fit.
s
Life is not merely to live, but
to live well, eat well, digest well,
work well, sleep well, look well.
"What a glorious conditio, i to
attain, and yet how very easy it is
if one will only adopt the morning
inside bath.
.Folks who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when they
arise, splitting headache, stuffy
from a cold, foul tongue, nasty
breath, acid stomach, can, instead,
feel as fresh as a daisy by open
ing the sluices of the system each
morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous
stagnant matter.
Everyone, wlcther ailing, sick
pr weli, should, each morning,'
before breakfast, drink a glass
of real hot water with a teaspbon
f ul of limestone phosphate in it
to wash from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels the previous
day's indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and puri
fying the entire alimentary .canal
before putting more . food into
the stomach. The action of hot
water alid limestone phosphate
on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. It cleans out
all the sour fermentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one
a splendid appetite foe breakfast
While you are enjoying your
breakfast the water and phos
phate is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood
and getting ready for a thorough
flushing of all the Inside organs.
The millions of peope who
are bothered with constipation,
bilious spells, stomach trouble,
rheumatism; others who have
sallow skins, blood disorders and
sickly complexions are urged to
get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from the drug stare,
which wHJ cost but little, but is
sufficient to make anyone a pro
nounced crank on the subject pf
internal sanitation.
