Dinner and Theater Party
Given by Canteen Girls
for Warriors Brave
Members of the canteen corps
cre afforded a real treat Sunday
itening as were also 25 warriors
srave, just returning from France
to their homes in San Francisco.
The young men were engineers be
longing to the camouflage division
and in their honor a dinner was
given at the Fontenelle followed by
a theater party at the Boyd, with a
number of the pretty canteen girls
as hostesses. Eleven members of
the Omaha Woman's Press club
mit were included.
Among the guests were several
very interesting young men. One. a
portrait painter, who had lived for
five years in Paris, had designed the
insignia worn by the members of
his company. It resembles a tiny
chameleon, most appropriate lor
these artists who helped win the
war by their genius in disguising and
transforming the objects of nature.
The soldiers, who have seen.? 13
months active service, were de
lighted with their reception in Oma
ha as this was the first given them.
After an informal little chat with
the canteen girls at the Fontenelle
after the theater, they waved them
a cheery adieu, with three hearty
cheers tor Omaha and her pretty
young patriots.

Cne, Wizard of Fashion, Is With Us
Again, Assisted by a Few Pins, Etc.
By GABBY DETAYLS.
Ora Cne is with us again the
wizard of fashion!
With a pin as his only assistant,
he looped a plain walking skirt and,
presto 1 there was a fashionable
spring model right before our very
eyes!
And as he 'pinned the skirt,
twisted a paper into a vogueish
tight hat, he whispered to us many
hints as to what we would wear
this spring, whether we like it or
not. .
Henna is to be one of the leading
colors and we will meet it coming
and going, touched off with a bit
of navy blue. Navy blue and cher
ry red are the victory colors. Ten
we shall have Jay blue and Copen
hagen, "suggested" and "hinted" and
"touched about" on half the hats we
se.e on Farnam street.
Iats? Hats? Oh, yes, they wil'
be small, very small at first, and
develope in size as the season grows
older. Midsummer "will bring us
the transparent brims outlined n
fancy lisera braid, which gives a
mysterious shadow and silhouette
effect. Medium shapes are known,
this year, as Watteau wheu tycy
have the underneath bandeau. . And.
land sakesl don't ask for a poke
bonnet this season 1 Mention the
"mid-Victorian" model's and you will
be accredited with knowing where-qj-yott-speak.
Girls 1 Girls! We are to stumble
through another season for many of
the newest skirts are only 40 inches
in width. But since we must stum
ble, let ua do it as gracefully as
possible. 'Mr. Cne gives us this
hope, however: Many of our spring
models will be split up the back
with an , underue'ath panel, which
renders pedal locomotion a bit le-:s
dangerous and grace more easily
accomplished, for, ' indeed, isn't
grace an accomplishment?
We have no intention of monopo
lizing Mr. Cne, being satisfied to be

But we note if
We keep our cars open
That some of the bells

The finish that
A lot of bright

Fallen back and some 1

By the wayside
And lost the race
Because they didn't
Have steam enough
To keep up the race
All the way through
Or because the crowd
Vied to wave danger
Flags ahead of them
And make them nervous
And undecided

Don't Run Away.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee;
W are three Birl friends, 15 years
of age, who are in love with three
soldiers boys who Just returned
from France. They want us to run
away and marry them. Our parents
object. Should we do it? Is it cor
rect for girls of our Hge to go to
public dances? Is it all right for us
to let boys kiss us goodnight?
Thanking you in advance. Please
put in morning Bee.
THREE ANXIOUS CHUMS.
Tour eoldler boy friends should
be arrested., It is wicked to suggest
such a thing to girls of your age.
They would not marry you, but after
a few days er weeks, grow tired of
the bargain and cast you off in the
scrap heap of ruined girls. No, you
should not go to public dances, nor
should you permit boys to kiss you
goodnight. Kissing leads to all sorts
of things, and you three are Just lit
tle girls. Don't allow soldiers, or
any other man, to suggest running
away. It only means misery for the
girl. '
Very Rude.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I read your advice to other people
every day and find it all very good.
I am in trouble now and need your
help badly. Friday night I took
(M) a girl friend of mine to the
basket ball game. We sat near an
other girl whom I know fairly well
and I held conversation with her
during most of the game. When we
were starting home I had my back
to M for a minute and she went
home with another boy. I haven't
seen her or talked with her-mce.
Now, Miss Fairfax, whose fault do
you think it was, should she have
left me -in this rude manner? Who
should be the first to apologize, M
or myself? If she refuses to apolo
gize, what could I do to make up?
Please print the answer in Tuesday
morning's Bee. Thanking you in
advance, yours truly. F. W.
Your friend was very rude, in
deed, and unless she apologizes it is
evident that she does not care for
you. This is just another case where
time will solve the problem. It
would be impossible for me to de
termine her real feeling toward you
from her attitude. It may have been
"impulse of youth" and then she
may not care for you. In the latter
case your further attentions would
be useless.
Did Soldier Die.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I have read your advice to others,
so I have come to you for some ad
vice, also. I have a sailor that was
at the Great Lakes. We loved each
other very dearly. This morning I
received a letter stating his death. I
don't really believe he is dead, for
when he left me he was just as
strong and healthy as could be.
Could you tell me where I could
write to find mt the actual truth?
They say he died January 25 and
wrote'me a letter January 10. Could
it be possible for me to find out
about his death at the camp where
they say he died?
Thanking you in advance and
waiting your answer in tomorrow's
Bee, I a;m, sincerely yours,
WORRIED.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a steady reader of your col
umn and look to you for advice. I
am a girl of 18 years of age. I have
been going with a young man for
about ix months. We are- engaged
to be married in the spring, but
every time I am out of town he in
sists on going with another girl,
whom I dislike very much. Now,
although I know he loves me dearly,
as of course I do him, do you think
he would be true to me after mar-

riage, should I continue going with
him. or if I should break the en
gagement, should 1 give htm back
the ring until he asks for it? I will
close, hoping to seo my letter in
print soon as possible.
BKOWN EXES. '
If you are engaged your ilance
should not humiliate you by going
with another girl. His intentions
may be all right, bt I suggest that
you explain to him that when he
goes out with the other girl it makes
you the subject of unfavorable com
ment. If he loves you he will not
wlnh your name to be giggled over.
After you have explained this to
him (if he insists on going out with
the other girl), return his ring and
place your affections elsewhere.
, Bob Speaks. -
Dear Hiss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I wish to ask you a few questions,
and hope neither you or the readers
of this column will think I am
meddling with something that is
none of my business.
The question in the January 23d
column, which answer was "Silly
Girl." Miss Fairfax, I consider your
advice very acceptable to all sensi
ble questions.
Why is it that so many girls say
in writing: I am beautiful and very
popular?
The boys very seldom say-that.
Isn't there as nice looking boys as
there are girls? And if they are
not popular, why do the girls trj
to look so nice when they are
around the boys?
I am going to mention three girls,
so will call them Elsie, Ella and Ema.
Ema was working for my mother
and hired Ella's mother to do some
sewing for her.
One day when Ema was there Ella
I '
1 Cfear
was showing her fine dresses and
said: "I wouldn't go to places if it
wasn't just to see tine clothes," and
Elule. who was visiting her, said,
"That's me, too." Kma wan dis
gusted with them, and so was I.
Ella's father is a farmer and rents
from year to year, never getting
ahead financially.
I also know other girls who are
not pretty, but are as nice girls as I
have ever known, and they don't
loso their heads over dress and beau
ty, although they are much better
able to dress fine than Elsie and
Klla.
Which is the most preferable for
a wife.
And. Pet, if you will Just art as
you write, no sensible boy will both
er you, and take Miss Fairfax's ad
vice and kindly refuse the rest.
Never snub a senseless fellow. Hop
ing to see this in The Bee, I am.

Long- Engagements.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am writing you for advice concern
ing long engagements. Do they last
three and f6ur years? As a rule
girls tell me they don't. I have had
a bunch of admirers. Thought I
loved one, but did not.
I have now met a fellow I really
believe I love. He is in college and
we are engaged. . Should I announce
the engagement? Should the fel
low give the girl the ring as soon
as they are engaged? Kindly an
swer through The Bee.
SERIOUS.
, Long engagements, In my opin
ion, are unwise. Lovers should mu
tually agree on the time to announce
the engagement, and it is customary
for the young man to place a ring
on the third finger of his fiancee's
left hand.
In Doubt. .
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am asking you for advice about
the following:
I am 16 years old, fair complected,

brown hair. I have quite' a bit of
hair. How should I comb it? I
