s. Washington, March 22. No soon
er do the buds break and the cro
cuses appear tn tne parks ana on
the lawns in Washington, than the
annual cold, wintry weather blows
up and comes dangerously near
blighting them all. The grounds of
the White House are beginning to
take on their sprightly look with the
bright colors dotting the grass,
where the crocuses are peeping, and
, the magnolia trees are almost in full
bloom. v - '
The stream of visitors in the south
are . making , a . steady 1 pilgrimage
through Washington, whether they
live in New York,- Boston, the mid
dle west or the far west. The
Washington hotels are most entic
' ing at this season. Everybody who'
can go south is either going or- com-

' The little family of MrO and Mrs,
Ned' McLean returned a few days
ago from a long stay-in Florida
Thev took a famous, handsom place
at Palm Beach, and in the first se
vere storm after thev were estab
lished therewith a large retinue of
servants, dogs, children and luggage
the itorm broke through the doors
and windows, flooded the place and
- made the occupants flee for comfort
"elsewhere. They went eventually to
St. Augustine, where they spent
some time. They went back to Palm
Beach before they came home. Their
youngest son, the third, remained in
Washington with1 the maternal
grandmother, .Mrs. Thomas F.
Walsh, with whom, in fact,'' he
spends most of his time.' '
Children and Children.
These children when they are at
home spend their days at Friend
ship the McLean country place, hav
ing an early breakfast in tne town
-Jiouse, driving out to Friendship,
where they play and have their les
sons until the late afternoon, then
get back in time for their bread and
milk sunner in the evening. A cook
with several aids is kept 'at Friend
siu,. all the winter, to cook the chil
dren's dinner in the middle of the
(fay and look after them.
Tne McLeans have always be
Jiev.d in the. country air for chil
dren, just as the late Mr. and Mrs.
John R. McLean believed in it for
tieii only son, Ned. They bought
a large tract oi land tar up town in
Washington, which is now one of
the most fashionable localities, built
all around with handsome homes. On
tnis tract which they had cleared
and fenced ir) with a tall iron fence,
they built a keal playhouse, a minia
ture cottage! just big ". enough for
the child and. his, little playmates.
They had a pony there which ihey
rode all over, the place, learned to
do bareback riding, and jumping
and all kinds of fancy riding, and
here the pressnt owner of Friend
ship practically grew up. This
ground became his own when he
was 21 and netted him a small for
tune - The Leiter children are being
laiscd much in the same way, but
they are taken over to the great
Leiter "farm in Virginia, or rather
they i tay there nearly all the winter
and are brought into town occa
sionally, to visit their parents, who
have recently returned, from Hot
Spr'ngs.
Hitchcockt Away
I S-nator and Mrs. Hitchcock have
gone to Augusta, Ga., and have
set no time for returning. Mrs.
Hitchcock has not been very well
again this winter and before the
close of the season, she made her
calls by mail, tending her cards
arounds without making the per
sonal visit. Miss Ruth Hitchcock
remained behind in their, Washing
ton home. ,v
' Mrs. Russell B. Harrison spent
the last fweek-end in' Norfolk with
her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and
Mrs. Harry Williams, jr., and their
three little daughters. She returned
here on Wednesday and on Thurs
day her cousin,' Mrs. Withers, ar
rived for a month's visit with her
and her mother, Mrs. Saunders.
Mrs. Withers has been with her son,

Fatherless and Motherless Tots Will Reap
Benefit of Dance and Card Party 1
; to Be Given April 23
By PEGGY NATTINGER.
Fatherless and motherless 1 These,
the most tragic words of the lan
guage, strike a chord of sympathy
in all human hearts. Sorrow has
stalked abroad these last war ridden
months and in our zeal to alleviate
the sufferings of foreign people our
ears are sometimes deaf to the
pleadings of the little ones at our
own doors, fortunately there are
institutions where, these tiny , folk
who have been deprived of parental
training by cruel circumstances are
given tender and loving care. One
of the largest of these homes for
children is the St James orphan
age, where 175 tiny tots live happily
together, waiting, many of them in
vain, for the day when some kindly
folk will come to adopt them.
A certain group of these orphan
children have a special claim on the.
. i . r 1 1 A : s
sympaimes oi an patriotic Ameri
cans, for there are 21 of them now
at the orphanage whose-fathers
fought the battles of freedom on
European soil. One little rosy
cheeked fellow.in the nursery is too
small to realize that his brave dad
dy made the supreme sacrifice while
fighting with the Canadians and that
he will never return to 'his little son.
Two sweet little maids with golden
curls were left fatherless during
that terrible drive made by the Huns
a year ago. This brave soldier was
one of the first to arrive in France
with the railroad engineers and he
laid down 'his life on the altar of
democracy, leaving two little girls
who hold out their tiny hands to
those who remained in safety at
home. .
Twin boys, whose olive skins and
dark eyes mark them as sons of
Italy, are how at the orphanage, for
both father and mother were swept
away in the maelstrom of war. The

now his twin boys must rely on the
bounty of kindly America for their
support. j ,. . '
The deadly scourge of influenza
has laid waste many homes in Oma
ha,- leaving children without the
loving care of father or mother.
Forty-five orphans were brought to
the home during the epidemic, the
grim reaper having gathered his
harvest at their homes. As the influ
enza attacked those in the prime of
life,, the . children of the vic
tims were of tender age, and only
three or four of the number vanre,
more than 7 years old. , One
exceptionally sad case was brought
to the attention of the authorities.
A Bohemian couple with their three
childreri came to Omaha seeking
employment. They were here but a
short time when the mother was
stricken with flu and 4ied. Three or
four days later her husband follow
ed and three little children were
left .without a friend in the world.
Again the great doors ot the or
phanage swung wide and admitted
these homeless babies. .
But there is a glint of silver in
every dark cloud, and these father
less children of Nebraska have a
staunch friend in a pretty, brown-
eyed girl, Miss Robina Kammerer,
bv name. Their cause has become
hers, and though Miss Kammerer
is a business woman she still finds
time to plan elaborate benefit affairs
to aid the little juveniles who dwell
within the four walls of St. James
orphanage. A dance and card party
will be given by Miss Kammerer,
April 23 at the Auditorium, when the
proceeds will be given to the or
phanage fund. This is the second of
these benefit dances sponsored by
this attractive young woman and
her many friends assist her by do
nating their services and their prizes
to make these dances a success.
The admission price is within the
reach of all and the guests will
dance the fleecing hours away, happy
in the thought that they are helping
nearly 200 children, who mourn the
loss of one or both parents. , None
can resist the plea, for the words
of the Master come down through
the ages, "Inasmuch as ye have done
it unto the least of these, ye have
done it unto me."
Red Cross Work Shop in

The Masonic Temple Red Cross

Soft, Curly, Wavy Hair
Now Easy to Have
( Woman'! Realm)
Beautiful, fluffy, natural-looking curia
or waves,. without the use of the ruinous
curling iron, are .now possible for every
woman. Yes, not only possible, but very
easily acquired over night, and with bene
fit to the life and health of the hair. It ia
only necessary to apply a little liquid sil
merine before retiring,-using a clean tooth
brush for the purpose, drawing this, down
;he full length of the tresses from root to
tip. In the morning the hah- will have s
most delightful curliness and lustre, with
out the least suggestion of grease or stick
iness, and will be quite controllable, no
matter how the hair is- done up.
As liquid silmerine is procurable at any
drug store and as a few ounces of it wiU
last for months, no woman need put up
with that flat, dank appearance of the
hair which gives such an unwholesome
look of plainness to most faces. Adv.
