"Pan and the Rose
rairy Flayed
for Charity
Proceeds Will Go to the
Creche and the League
for Woman'
Service.
'Tan and the Rose Fairy," the
masque written by Mrs. Myron
.earned and to be produced by The
Players club, Saturday, June 14.
will be a benefit for the Creche and
the National League for Woman's
service.
Inquiries have come to Mrs. Will
iam Archibald Smith, chairman for
the Omaha branch of the league and
to Mrs. T. L. Kimball, president of
the Creche association as to why
the benefit. Both women are more
than anxious that the public know
the scope, of work being done by
both organizations. "The Creche is
Koing to expand its work," states
.Mrs. Kimball.
"The word Creche means cradle
by the day. Until a few years ago
when the Creche occupied the site
of the fire house at Nineteenth and
Harney streets, we were able to
maintain a day nursery where moth
ers employed by the day might
leave their children during their
hourj of employment. Since the
Creche has occupied the home on
rark Wilde Avenue it has been lm
possible to operate the day nursery.
Children have either been taken by
the week or month. Many requests
have come from these mothers for
a day nursery. Now that the de
mands for war work have lessened
for women the Creche association
is making definite plant to establish
day nurseries in one or mors loca
tiom in the city," says Mrs. Kim
ball. "Our work it not over by any
meangj" says Mrs. William Archi
bald Smith of the National League
for Woman's Service.
"The Red Cross, sees that only
the wounded soldiers passing
through the city to other camps are
given food. We have recently been
asked to provide hot meals for the
returning soldiers en route to other
camps, who arrive in the city in the
afternoon and do not leave until mid
night. The league has started this
fund to feed the well soldier with
$500. Other welfare organizations
provide entertainment for the men
but until the league offered to see
that hot meals were provided the
returning men had to buy their own
meals."
The National League for Women's
Service which was originally formed
for war work was incorporated in
New York City April 29 with the
object to carry forward its endeav
ors to meet the social and economic
needs in peace times.

"How does it seem to be mother
of a big girl like that?" asked a vis
itor of Jackie Saunders as she
watched the Sunkist star put her
baby to bed.
You sec. the nurse goes home
Thursdays, and Jackie is on the job
from noon till baby's bedtime.
Well, if you mean to ask if it
seems strange, I must tell you that
it doesn't I feel as though I had
always been a mother and at heart
I have been ever since I first saw
a doll."
"But the care, the responsibility?'
"It is life to me. I am not irked
by the care and I rejoice in the re
sponsibility. Your question is best
answered by a story I love. An
elderly gentleman met a little boy
at the foot of a hill and the boy, red
faced, was bending under the load
of a fat babv.
" 'Better let me carry that baby up
the hill for you, my boy; he's too
heavy for a little chap like you.
"The boy refused with some spirit
to yield his burden, saying:
"'He ain't heavy, mister. Why,
he's my brother 1"
"Well, motherhood seems to have
enchanted you, Miss Saunders. You
are the picture of youth, health,
beauty and happiness more youth'
ful, indeed, than when I saw you at
Balboa studio, three years ago. How
do you do it?
"It's because I believe in these
things, and constantly think them, I
suppose, but one must be very
grateful, too, you know.
And the little mother a doll her
selftucked in her baby, kissed her,
turned out the light and came away.
"A simple religion, Miss Saun
ders. Does it always work?"
"Hasn't failed me or baby yet.
Try it."
And as the visitor left, she felt
that this little screen mother had
found in her simple faith a never
failing reservoir of enchantment.
A local art department has copied
a sweater model from "Vogue" and
is displaying the piquant result to
an appreciative group of "learners."
In the new filet crochet, the front
of the sleeveless sweater is made.
The Lack is fashioned of soft crush
satin with quite a noticeable cord
ing. The girdle is carelessly caught
into a big white pearl buckle. It
takes but four balls of yarn, and
the result is decidedly chic. A book
of directions will be sent with the
yarn, free of charge.

Smocks are popular and pictur
esque garments for the young girl.
These "flapper" blouses are made of
cotton crepe, linen, summer silk or
georgette crepe. An effective smock
for a girl of 16 is made of apple
green cotton crepe, smocked and
briar stitched in black. A tie of
black grosgrain finishes the neck
and accents the color contrast. The
deep roll collar is briar stitched in
black and the cuffs match. Gener
ous pockets also come in for a share
of smocking and briar stitching. One
of the newest features of this
smock is its dog collar belt of green
and black leather. A clever girl
could copy this smock herself.

The Walrus said
To talk of many things
Of ships and shoes
And sealing wax
And cabbages and kings."
In other words
I sadly moan,

Of which to speak.
I made such fine
The very best
Decisions
To reach the top
Of fame's great peak
And then
Next day
I figure out
That such decisions
Are "tommyrot"
And foolish
That happiness
Is love alone
No other element
Is worth a thought
But when the sun
Sets red that night
I tell myself
That love it naught

Smooth out their troubles
Then comes a turn
In the road of my mind
And a sign post says:
"What matters .

And so
Struggling in a billowy
Sea of emotions
Battling in a conflict
Of antagonistic ideas

Advice to the Lovelorn
Love Comes Unbidden and, "To Love or Not We Are
No More Free Than the Ripple to Rise and Leave
the Sea."
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
When the Soldier Returns.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am coming to you for advice. I
have been corresponding: with a sol
dier boy for over a year and he is
still across the waters and does not
know when he will return. I like
him very much, but I do not know
whether I love him or not. He has
asked me to wait for him until he
comes home and he does not want
me to keep company with other
young men. It is very lonesome to
stay home from parties and dances
and a very nice gentleman has
asked to take me out, and I am un
decided whether to go or not. Is
it all right for me to keep company
with boys here, as I have not prom
ised him I would wait for him?
And, Miss Fairfax, is it proper for
a girl to go with a man to his home
to see his mother? How often
should a man friend call at your
home is three times a week too
often? Always a friend,
TRIXIE.
Tour difficulty seems to be in de
ciding whether or not you like the
soldier boy well enough to wait for
his return, in the meantime not go
ing with anyone else. Until you
have decided in the affirmative, or
have given tome word of obligation
to the soldier, it seems to me you
are not doing wrong to accept the
society of other men. It is not only
proper, but very commendable for
a young woman to call with a man
upon his mother. Three times a
week is what I would call "regu
lar" and looks serious. Don't per
mit such attention unless you wish
to encourage the young man.
A Soldier in France.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
read you advice to others every day
and think it is very good. I have a
little trouble, so I am coming to you
for help. I am sure you will give
me good advice.
I have a soldier boy (friend) in
France. When he left he asked me
to wait for him. I loved him, so
I promised. Now, do you consider
that an engagement? I don't. He
didn't speak of marriage then, but
he has asked me twice since he went
to France. I didn't answer that, but
I told him I loved him and would
wait for him. Did I do right? Am
I doing wrong by going with other
boys around here? Please tell me
if it is wrong, because I don't want
to do wrong. Is it sin to go to
dances? My soldier boy "over
there" thinks it is. So I quit going
to dances for his sake. Did I do
right?
Please answer as soon as possible
in The Bee. I am,
"SOME BLONDE."
Answer to your question is just
like a theorem in geometry: It
takes two to make a bargain, so if
you don't consider yourself engaged
then you're not. Not being engaged,
you should be able properly to ac
cept other company if you wish to.
Opinions vary on the moral harm
of dances. Dancing, in itself, is not
wrong; it may even be beneficial as
exercise and recreation. But it is
" cult to separate from it some at
tendant evils such as late hours for
young people, undesirable company,
careless conduct and waste of time.
If your soldier boy doesn't approve
of li: icln gand you expect to man
him, then you'd better plan to give
it up.

They have asked us to marry
them, but they are at present not
well enough situated financially, to
marry. We have many other boy
friends who are very attentive to

love. Would you advise us to wait
for these two boys, or to forget them
and keep company with some of our
other friends?
Thank you in advance for your
kind advice. 'TWO PALS."
Can you be so very lonesome with
"many other boy friends?" It is
not wise nor right to marry for

man who cannot provide the neces

your immediate question: I feel
safe in advising you to wait until
you know your own minds before
marrying anybody.
Marriage License.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
When a party gets married do they
have to have their license put in
the paper? Please let me know at

Cutie There are better ways for
a girl of 14 to spend her time than
at dan where she exel nges late
hours for an udeu'uate rest she
should be getting in the growing
years. She develops an interest in
boys, which crowds out her ' ter
est i.i school work. These next few
years are priceless ones for you.
Use them wisely; don't waste them.
Your future depends to a great ex
tent upon what you do now.
A Questionnaire.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
1. What would you do if a cer
tain boy at a dance would ask you
for every dance and you refuse him,
but he still asks for them? How
would you tell him you didn't want
to accept them ?
2. How old should a girl be be
fore she keeps steady company with
a young man?
3. If taken home by a boy when
he departs or leaves you is it proper
for him to kiss you good night?
4. After the dance or show is
over, do you think it would look
right to go out car riding or out
walking, and then come home and
set on the porch a while before
going in?
B1LLIE. BOBBIE AND MICKEY.
1. Go ahead and dance with oth
ers, and before the evening is over
he will probably gather that you
have refused to give him all your
dances.
2. A girl should be old enough to
go with boys before she keeps
"steady company" with any one of
them. Going with one boy instead
of half a dozen is not objectionable
in Itself. In fact, it is preferable if
he be the right kind of a young
man. Going "steady" with a young
man doesn't necessarily presuppose
an engagement or marriage.
3. It all depends upon what you
want to make of yourself. If you
wish to be common, careless, han
dled by everybody, misunderstood,
go ahead and kiss them all. But if
you have respect for yourself, re
gard for the young men you go
with, and a desire to be something
nu.e than the poorest of your sex
can be, then reserve such privileges
as kisses until they signify some
thing more from you than a cheap
hand-out
4. Hens "set:" girls "sit." But the
hens have sense enough to go to
their roost at the proper time.
Would that all girls had sense
enough to do the same.
Julia Russell Went On a
Vacation and Ended by
Opening Women's Home
Miss Julia Russel of Detroit went
down to Nice, France, for a leave.
It was her first vacation in a year.
She was the only woman in Nice
at the time wearing a Y. W. C. A.
uniform and the commanding officer
of the Riviera leave area heard about
her.
He sent for her and asked her if
she would open a hostess house for
women right there and then. There
are endless clubs, restaurant and en
tertainment facilities for the soldiers
visiting this popular leave area, but
the women of the A. E. F. including
nurses and women of all the war or
ganizations have practically no pro
vision for their presence.
Miss Russel found herself on the
third day of her "vacation" hard in
the search for a suitable hostess
house location.
Before her leave was up she was
back in Faris with the lease and now
there is a Y. W. C. A. hostess house
in the center of Nice, which is a
kind of woman's club, restaurant.
hostess house and women's head
quarters all in one.
Miss Russel initiated the work ol
the Y. W. C. A. with the signal
corps girls. At present this "hello"
branch of the A. E. F. is billeted in
Y. W. C. A. houses throughout
France. A unit lives in a housi
that is directed by a Y. W. C. A. sec
