THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: NOVEMBER 17. 1918.
South Side
"ONLY QUESTION
OF TIME," SAYS
SOUTH SIDE BOY
Jerry B. Kulhanek Writes of
Battles in Air, Which Are
of Common Occurence
Over There.
'jerry B. Kulhanek, son of Mr. and
Mrs. F. J. Kulhanek, 719 Pine street,
writes from "somewhere in France"
that the Bee is verv accurate in its
news of American activities in
France.
Kulhanek was manager of the
produce department of the Fair
niAnt Creamery company before he
left Omaha with the first draft con
tingent for Camp Funston in Sep
tember of last year. He has been
in France since June. His brother,
Joe Kulhanek, is secretary to Ev
erett Buckingham, vice-president
and general manager of the Union
Stock Yards company. Following
is the letter:
"We are not doing much now,
just sticking around, but I don't
suppose it wi.l be that way very
long as tint is not the American
5tvle and I expect they will keep
ifrer the Germans all winter and
not give them any rest.
"I would write you all the dope,
but there is so much happsning
Dne does not know what to write
about. We see air fights everyday,
the shrapnel bursting around the
planes, the tune of the shells as they
go over us and concusion in the air
is they break, causing the plaster
ind cement of the "left-over"
houses to shower us at night or the
shattered bits of rock falling on the
tile roofs, caused by a bursting shell
nearby, followed by the stretcher
bearers going down the street are
common occurances.
"We are all happy because the
Germans are no natch for "us but
, run everywhere they see us and it
is only a matter of time before it
is over.
"It is a beautiful country that we
art; in now. No wonder the Ger
mans wanted it and from the way
thiy have had their dugouts fixed
I think they intended to stay, be
cause they had electric lights, cush
ion seats in them, baths an4 all
kinds of less important conven
iences. The Bee is very accurate
and they 'sure get the correct dope."
Isabella Club Gives '
$60 to War Work Fund
The Isabella club, which was the
first club organized in Omaha to

Farmers Urged Not to Ship
Their Immature Poultry
The Nebraska food administration
is sending notices to farmers urg
urging them to hold their imma
ture poultry, instead of forcing it
onto the market, thus creating an
oversupply. The necessity for hold
ing poultry that is immature is due
to the fact that facilities for ship
ment are not up to requirements.
In many localities dealers are over
stocked and it is asserted that poul
try can be held to better advantage
on the farms than in the close
pens on the market. m
Make Your Stomach
Your Best Friend
Stuart' Dyspepsia Tablets Digest
the Food, Prevent Sourness
and Make You Feel
Fine All Over.
If you feel any distress after eating
take a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet. You
will then have a good, steady friend in
your stomach. For no matter what you
eat there will be no gas, no sour risings,
r.o lump in your throat, no biliousness, no
dark brown taste in the morning. And
should you now be troubled, eat a tablet
as soon as possible and relief will come
promptly. These tablets correct at once
the faults of a weak or overworked stom
ach, they do the work while the stomach
rests and recovers itself. Particularly ef
fective are they for banqueters and those
whose environment brings them in contact
with the rich food most apt to cause stom
ach derangement. Relief in these cases al
ways brings the glad smile. Get a box of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, 50 cents in any
drug store. Be good to your stomach. Adv.

American Soldier is
Carried to U. S. Lines
by Huns Who Desert
Miss Francis Range has a letter
from her brother, Edwin A. Range,
telling of his rescue by German
soldiers. Miss Range is with the
War Camp Community service.
Private Range who enlisted at his
home in Rochester, N. Y., and had
been at the front for some time, was
wounded, at the battle of Cambrai.
As he lay on the field, unable to re
treat to his own lines, he was ap
proached by four big, sturdy Ger
man soldiers. They picked him up
gently and carried him to the Amer
ican lines. "We would rather be
with the Americans than the Ger
mans," they told him.
"They were fine to me," writes
the young man, "and were just as
careful as they could be not to hurt
me.
Private Range is now in a hos
pital in England, frcm which the
letter was dated, and will make a
complete recovery.
Gayety Theater Adds
$1,222 to United War
Work Drive in Omaha
A packed house welcomed Flor
ence Mills and Abo Reynolds on
their return to Omaha for a week's
stay at the Gayety theater. The
leads in tlys company for several
years have proved among the most
popular that visit the Gayety and
the production this year is no ex
ception to the rule.
"Pep" is the noticeable feature
from the "asbestos" to the "chaser."
Associated with the leads are a
number of stars that called for re
peated encores before the large
audience was satisfied.
John Quigg in his musical num
bers with trombone and accordion
is a show in himself. Seth Stubbs
brings the odor of alfalfa to all on
his entrance as our rube friend.
Chic and charming, Eva Suede
with the naughty, naughty, eyes,
plays the part of a temperamental
miss and in her beautiful songand
dance numbers completely captivat
ed the audience. Mildred Tvson
proved very popular in late songs.
Costumes and stage settings add
to the enjoyment of the show by
their beautiful designs. A chorus
of more than the usual charm sup
ports leading characters.
The United War Work campaign
benefited $J44."6 by the Saturday
night show. Included in this
amount is $64 raised largelv through
the efforts of Florence Mills, who
auctioned off a "Peace" hat exhibit
ed by the Nebraska Clothing com
pany on the signing of the armistice,
and Ethel Brewster, her able assis
tant. When bidding on the hat lag
ged Miss Brewster donned the mil
linary creation and added a kiss with
each $Sbid.
In four and one half days in which
collections have been taken for this
fund the Gayety has raised $1,222.46.
The amount of money raised in this
theater for the various funds now
exceeds the combined amounts of all
other Omaha theaters.
