When December Wedded May my dears The merry bells Rang out The robins sang , And the eagles screamed But the blur'jird Could not be found. The maiden fair With her sunkissed hair Floating free on the Soft June breeze, Said: "I'll find him Soon and build a cage With the money that Buys all things." So amid the gayest Of orchid blooms And bridal wreaths And palms ' She took the vows She knew nothing about And promised To love and cherish "Until death do part." The man was pompous In his narrow thought That his gold Could bargain with love, His confidence topped The judgment mark And blinded hi reason To life. Time skipped by, - t A. a rapid gait ' While the chasm of cool ' ' Indifference grew Great and wide Sparrows came In droves to scold And fuss and fume - And disturb .

She wept as she knelt On her bridal veil In the .years that Flitted by And thought of the Life that might have been With the lover that came Too late.

Are you looking forward, dear pros pective mother, to the' wonderful, glorious time when you shall hold in your arms the little mite, which is of your flesh and blood, with feelings of misgivings T Now is the time to get in condition to meet the crisis, and three generations of women have found in the time-honored preparation, Mother's Friend, a grateful, penetrating remedy to prepare their sys tems to withstand the shock. The action of this famous remedy is to relieve tension on drawn nerves, cords, tendons and ligaments, to relieve' strain and discomforts, such es nausea, nervous ness, bearing-down and stretching pains. By regular use during the period the muscles expand easily when baby is born; pain and danger at the crisis is naturally less and the hours are fewer. Do not neglect the use of Mother's Friend. It is for external application only, is absolutely safe and wonderfully effective. Write the Bradfleld Regulator Company, Dept.

Mrs. Pier Has Given the Remainder Of 'Her Life'' for More Gqu1(J She Do ' Mr. and Mrs. Pier Will Leave In August To Do Mission ary 'Work In Japan and Carry the Message of Democracy and Christianity To the Orient. By TRUMA KITCHEN. PESSIMISTS who feel that the call of the volunteer so prom inent in war times has bjen muffled in the greater call of each for himself look at the picture of Mrs. Bertha Washburn Pier, who Is one of Omaha's "after the volunteers" and will leave in August for Japan, where both Mr. and Mrs. Pier have signed for life service with the Y. M. C A. "Hardly a day passes, but I am asked over and over again," said Mrs. Pier "why are you Koinsr to Japan when there is so much work to be done here at home? "Mr. Pier and I know the need at home, but when we consider the comparative need of Japan we could not be true to the principles of de mocracy, which are the principles of Jesus Christ, and not answer the call of the greater need of Japan. "A missionary is one whol oves his own country so well that he is willing to leave it and carry its best to the land beyond the sea." It is the task of the missionary, through a sympathetic understanding: of the religious, political, and social prob lems of the nations of the world, to so interpret the West to the East and East to .the West that universal brotherhood may be established, which alone will bring world peace. I hope to do my part in the "Lib erty Drive,, of Japan. Mr. Pier, who was director of the Omaha Y. M. C A. for two years is now traveling for student volun teer work recruiting tor tne x, m. in various . universities throughoutSp0ijtjcs government, society and the middle west. He was but recent ly released from the navy where he attended the officers training school in Chicago. In Jaoan all the Y. M. C. A. ac tivities are connected with the stu dent work and as Mrs. Pier said: "We do not feel that the war is over. ' It is not won unless we make the best use of the opportunities that are before us in the countries that have felt America's touch in the war." In all save reality, Japan will be their home for it is only once in seven years that Mr. and Mrs. Pier will return on furlough. Student work in connection with Y. M. C. A. in Japan means connection with Story of Extra Girl Who Had Experience - Movie Actress Tells How It All Happened for the Benefit Other Girls. of By JEANNE JOHNSON. Everyone wants to get into the movies, and everyone who tackles anyone who is in, gets the same ad vice: "Begin at the bottom. Start as an extra. If you've 'got the goods' you'll get ahead." So that's what I did, and maybe other screen-struck girls for I ad mit I'm one will like to know just what it's like. Here in Los Angeles the preliminaries are easy enough I just went to the "service bureau" an dexplained my qualifications. They didn't seem much impressed, although I had appeared in amateur theatricals, until I said I had three or four evening gowns. Then they thawed out, and sent me around to Universal City o play "atmos phere." Well, it was 8:30 when I reported to Director Home, who was produc ing "The Midnight Man." He looked me over and said he wouldn't need me until 11, but for me to be on hand by 10:30 sure. The assistant director showed me where to make up, and directed me to a big hall, partitioned into halves, one side for women, the other for men. Extras, you know, haven't separate dressing rooms. I had grease paint, powder and pencils, but I didn't know what to do with them, and an old woman who looked like a witch, under a straggly wig and bedaubed with grease paint, took me under her wing.' She was meant to look like Downstairs Stora II a Cause Whatv lnaMia ihwfiLi iliis iiiiwisi wmm Lm.illj. . every phase of life. "We neither know the Japanese language," said Mrs.Pier, "but what the Japanese have done here, surely we can do there. It means' school however for one and one-half years and then perhaps a private tutor for perfection." During the war Mrs. Pier worked with Mr. E. F. Folda as state sec retary for the Liberty loan com mittee and at present is' secretary in the Victory loan work. Per vious to her work in Omaha, she was secretary for patriotic organiza tions in New York. The Piers are giving their lives to the work what more'could anyone give? a witch, I guess) but anyway her heart was in the right place. And let me say right here that all that day, and the days that I worked since (four altogether), I didn't meet anyone who didn't seem anxious to help vme. I guess most of them started where I am, and they re membered it. Well, my witch or fairy god mother, as she seemed explained all about make-up to me, and helped me fix up. She wanted to introduce me to a lot of queer looking people all around us Arabs and negroes and old men with long whiskers and girls in short dance hall dresses. But I got cold feet and asked her not to, until I had time to get used to them. I went over to the set feeling that everyone was staring at me, but I guess no one was. I found a scene being "shot," as. they call it, and they kept on shooting it, and I sat around on bits of scenery and felt lost and lonesome. At 12 o'clock Director Home called: "Off to lunch, everybody." And still I hadn't acted, and my evening gown was getting all crump ly from sitting around in it. In the cafeteria we all stormed the counters for food, and I picked up snatches of talk that I could under standmost of it might as well have been Greek, for it was all full of words I'd never heard. But every one seemed nice and friendly and I began to feel at home. Well, it was 3 o'clock before I was called for a scene, and then all I had to do was sit at a table with an insipid-looking man and drink, some stuff that was supposed to be cham pagne. But i'. wasn't it was cider. Anyway I saw the camera man grinding away, out of the corner of my eye, and I thought: "So I'm in pictures at last!" But listen! When it was all over I learned I hadn't been in the scene at all the "camera angle" didn't in clude my table. I nearly cried, but the director, Mr. Home, saw how I felt and said maybe I'd have better luck next time, and to report next day for a scene with Kathleen O'Connor. Maybe I wasn't tickled 1 I wonder if he saw anything in my acting, if you could call it that, that made him think I would do. Or was it just that he saw wonder? I was about to cry?

For Restoring Color and Beauty to Grarnd Faded Hafc. 60c and 1.flQat drqgglnta, Advice to the Lovelorn 0 nd, "To Love or Not We Are ino more ree man the Ripple to Rise and Leave K the Sea." ' . . ' By BEATRICE FAIRFAX From a Little Girl Friend. Dear Miss tairrax, Omaha Be: l am a constant reader of The Bee. If lt were not for your advice I should not read The Bee at all. After your giving advice, I thought I would come to you for tome. -I am a young girl of 13. Am I too small to wear skirts and waists? What color are they wearing thl summer? Should girls of- my age do their hair up? Thanking you for advice, . BLUE EYES. Dear little girl, you compliment me greatly, but there are other sec tions in The Bee which every girl should read to keep her mind alive to' current events. Tou are quite young to wear waists and skirts, and I auggest pretty middy blousea in stead of one-piece dresses. Until your figure has taken on the lines of maturity, or semi-maturity, the waist and skirt are stubborn and will not cling together. Every color Imaginable Is being worn this spring. Therefore, choose those col ors which are most becoming to your complexion. Wear your hair down, braided part way and clasped with a barrette. It seems so out of pro portion for girls of your age to wear their hair up. Brown-Eyed Vamn I would not advise a girl of 16 to go out nights with boys. If the young man you speak of, however, is known to your family, and if he has good princi ples, an occasional evening with him would do no harm. Good-night Kisses snouid not be considered light ly, nor indulged in carelessly. 1 would not consider it proper for your young friend to kiss you good night. If you wish to retain the beauty you say you possess, live and act so that the years, instead of robbing you of your charms, will en hance them. Youth will vanish, but character will grow; look to the de velopment of character then, so that your external beauty will be only an attractive case which holds precious jewels within. Hope and Faith Self confidence is the antidote to bashfulness. It is often the hardest and longest of battles, but take care that in curing the one you do not lean to the other extreme. Blushes do not come and go at the bidding of one's will. I can but feel sorry for you if you have that to contend with and yet many think blushing a thing of the past. When letters are not to your lik ing you have your choice of not answering them or of turning them into the kind that you do like. If your guests knew that they kept your husband from kissing you good by, I'm sure they would leave. But why in the world don't you want him to kiss you when they are there? Rosy Checks If you carry your self well and make the best of your good looks, others will envy you your height. Some of those habits and sayings are aggravating. Why, of course, I think it proper for a girl to dance with a boy. Low heels are so fashionable, why don't you wear them? Thank you, but I Just can't put my picture in the paper. You do not care how I look, any way. Babette White georgette, sim ple style, not too low in the neck, please, would make an attractive school banquet gown. Even less expensive material, such as white voile would do nicely. A good etiquet book might help you, but don't be self-conscious in following it. When in doubt about your man ners, watch others, use common sense and modesty. There are preparations which would help your nails and skin. I cannot name them here, but any good beauty parlor will recommend a cuticle remover and an astringent for oily skin. Jack Perhaps your father doesn't realize that a 18-year-old girl needs and longs for companions. Why do you not tell him all about it. It may be your fault, that by keeping all little confidences from him, he can not understand your longings. It may be that the girls and boys who keep asking you are not the type Appear At Your Best Instantly If you receive a sudden caller or an unexpected In vitation you can feel con fident of always appearing at your best In but a few moment It renders to your skin a wonderfully pure, soft complexion that Is beyond comparison.
