served for Valeska Suratt and her
party Wednesdayjioon'at the May
time lunch room, top floor of Or
chard & Wilhelm's, William Ritchie,
jr., (349th infantry.)) and his party
were also seated there. And why
notr xnese army men in civilian
clothes were hungry and they want
ed chicken pie and salad and short
cake. ,,-
When Miss Suratt and her friend.
Miss Weston, appeared upon the
scene, the five men bowed, smiled
and everybody immediately became
friend to everybody else at the
table. Hugh Birmingham, fflvine
corps; uscar reterson (134th Infan
try), Cloyd Walmer (Canadian in
fantry), Ralph G. Coad (flying
corps;, ana William Kitchie, jr., who
has already been identified, passed
the shortcake before the soud t'ust
to make everybody feel acquainted.
Here dear, said Miss Suratt to
Miss Weston, "you must have some
of this wonderful salad. We haven't
had anything so delicious since leav
ing New York. Don't tell me you
have plenty of lunch impossible
without salad and shortcake. Miss
Waitress, please bring everybody
at my fable more salad."
And so it came to pass that the
men overate and the women became
uncomfortable under the spell of the
siren just because Valeska Suratt
would be impromptu hostess to
Omahans "the people after her own
heart, she declared.
, '"Why, work ,is one gralnd holiday
in umana, sne exclaimed. I love
your shops and window and espe
cially your tailored looking men and
stylish, peppy women. Omaha is
the great divide between the east
and west much more east than
west and I never met such con
genial, absolutely natural, cultured
folks in my life. They radiate ideas
and enthusiasm."
Miss Suratt walked up stairs be
cause she believes in exercise, but
when she reached the fifth floor a
blue and white dining room suite
caught her eye.
"Oh, just look at this darling
suite I It matches my blue room in
New Yorkl I shall have it sent on
immediately! Where is your sales
man? All righty,, Mr. Salesman!
Send this suite to my address, Fifty
ninth and Fifth, New York, by spe
cial delivery. How much, please ?"i

And amid throne nf nnnn.m.

walked over Sixteenth street, feeling

politan crowd.
Many inquiries have- been made
concerning ihe song leaders' school
wnicn opens its session Wednesday
evening at the Girls' Comniunity
house, at 1716 Dodge under the di
rection of the War Camp Communi
ty service. Many song leaders are
asked for daily to conduct "sings"

It is very fitting that on Memorial
day the demobilization of the serv
ice star should be conducted. Many
churches in the city and in the sur
rounding towns are planning to have
this service the Sunday following
Memorial day and some to have it
in the city parks on Memorial day.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee
am a constant reader of The Omaha
Bee and have come to you (or some
advice. I am a girl of about 18. I
am in love with & young man. I
have told him that I loved him, but
he has never told me that he loved
me. Once I asked him, but he Just
kissed me and dldn t answer. We
have been going together for about
two years and have been in a few lit
tle quarrels, but I have never thought
much of that There has been times
when I have tried to forget him,
but when he notices that he follows
me everywhere and watches me, and
wants me to come back, I do so be
cause my love for him is so great If
he sees me talk to some other friend
of mine ,he always lets me know
about it He says I just belong to
him. Xow, if I didn't love him so
much I would go away so he couldn't
find me. 7 Dear Miss Fairfax, do you
think this man loves me? We have
never talked of getting married, as
I think there is plenty of time yet
I never hear or see him go with
any one else. Is it proper for a girl
who has been going with a man so
long to ask if he loves her? Please
answer in The Omaha Bee. Thank
ing you in advance,
