Nebraska women the western ranchers are calling - you to "lay down the grammar and the chalk." take up the "pitchfork and the rake" and donning this uniform be come part of the Women's Land Army of America for the summer. Mrs. William Hubert, national di rector of the land army, is now in Omaha and will make every effort to "recruit" enough Nebraska girls to make possible the second land army unit in this state. She has just returned from a visit to our one and only such camp the much talked of farm of Marcus Cain, at Chadron where from early in the morning until late at night four girls do the entire farm work. They each have their team; they milk the cows, feed the chickens, plant the corn, harrow, plow and in- cideutly cause so much interest that autoists come from many miles to see how Marcus s girls work. 1 he best proof is that Mr. Cain wrote a letter to the headquarters at New York, asking that two more girls be sent him. Letters come to him from every state in the west asking his opinion of western farming for women. And telegrams from news papers he intimated that he had be come almost a newspaper corre spondent. Because of the success of this ex periment came the opportunity for another Nebraska unit. This place Mrs. Hubert has just returned from investigating and all depends upon Nebraska women whether it can be accomplished. Down in Browley, Neb., there is a large ranch whose owner wishes to turn over the entire management of his hay harvesting to women. He... asks for a complete squad of eighty girls and one supervisor. He will furnish a little camp in one part of the farm where they will be en tirely by themselves. He asks that they be able to use "dumping rakes," drive and handle a team and one at least an "expert stacker." But if in all Nebraska there are no such "experts" he is willing to taket a smaller, less ef ficient squad and put them under his foreman. Besides their board and room these "summer farmer ettes" receive from $55 to $60 every month. And in the same vicinity there is another man who wants women for thrashing. In the east there are many girls who, according to Mrs. Hubert, are more than anxious to try western farming, but as these opportunities are for only two months, it is the Nebraska and western girls who must keep up their reputation. "The eastern camps are anxiously awaiting , to see whether, western women will be as eager to take up this work as the western farmers are to have them." said Mrs. Hubert. This National Woman's Land army was established for a war emergency and in the east was more than ef ficient. Over 15,000 girls were working. Because of the emphasis that the government put upon men's place on the western farms, there were only about 3,000 women work ing here. After the war the work was taken over by the government Department of Labor and is af filiated with the United States em ployment service. Mrs. Hubert will be at the Fon tenelle and also at the federal em ployment bureau in the court house during her stay in Omaha. Country Club Mrs. D. E. Bradshaw entertained at luncheon Tuesday.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am a girl, 17 years old, and I have been going with a boy for about 11 months. He is 21. I have promised to marry him when I am 18. About a week ago I saw him with another girl at an 1ce cream parlor It is the first time I have ever seen him with another girl. Last night I asked him- who the girl was and he said an old pal. I said he could keep on going with her because I m not going to- marry him. Was It wise to do this. Thanking you in advance, I am, B. A. D. Don't be serious, little girl. Let him go with the other girl and you have another interest. ' Eighteen is too young to marry. The average girl would cut short her good times and girlhood by entering so serious a state as that of matrimony. Freckles. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Am coming to you for advice, as so many others have, but I am not deep in love or anything of that sort, as seems to be the trouble of so many others. I feel certain that you who know everything can help me. I have many freckles on my face and arms and have tried many remedies, but nothing seems to help. I have now a bottle . of Derwillo, but have lost the directions how to be used with oatmeal. Wonder if you could help me here. Hope to see this in Monday's or Tuesday's Bee, and thanking you in advance, I remain, MISS 17. "Derwillo" Is a new product and I am not familiar with its uses. Lemon Jules Is good; also there are ons or two good freckle removers on the market. Ask the druggist. Pretty and Generaus. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I read your "Advice to the Lovelorn" every day, so am coming to you for a little advice. I-am a young lady. I am considered very pretty and gen erous. 1. Is it right for me to gro out riding with one boy first and then with a different one on the same evening? 2. Is It proper for the young man to put his arm around the girl when out riding7 8. ii ne wants to put his arm around me, and I don't want him to do this, what should I tell him to make him behave? Thanking you again, I am, ROSY CHEEKS. Tou are Indeed ( generous If you can entertain so many callers In one evening1. I shouldn't think the young men would feel much complimented to know that they are merely time fillers. Try to make yourself so en tertalnlng that some one of them will be able to enjoy your society for an entire evening. young man should not take, nor be permitted to take, tha liberty of putting his arm around you. If you have sufficient self-respect to feel this way about It I believe you will have the wit to get your Idea "over." Any words which I might suggest for such an emergency would be in effective without your own spirit back of them. Get hold of some ideals and try to live up to them and the right words will always bob up to your support when yon need them. Mrs. P. A. Rich and Son Leave for Bordeaux 6 .. I 9 fl ii- nn ffniluHV An Omaha woman, Mrs. Philip A. Rich, 1204 North Twenty-seventh street, is one of the first women to receive the coveted passports that permit her to leave America for France, where she will join her hus band, Capt. Philip Rich, a billiting officer now at Bordeaux. Mrs. Rich received her transport papers Monday. She and her 3-year-old-son Philip, jr., left Tues day night for New York, and after spending a short time with her sis ter, Mrs. C. R. Cettit, will sail about July 1. But even more enviable is the in tation that Mrs. Rich has received from Madame Audonis, whose hus band is a major in the French army, to spend the month of August at their summer home in Koyon, one of the most beautiful of French summer resorts. Major Audonis andCaptain Rk-h became intimate friends in connec tion with their military work and for ovc- a year Madame Audo.. and Mrs. Rich have corresponded. Captain Rich was. a guest at tha Audonis home during his leaves cf absence and this visit is one of the silver linings that the war cloud has brought to French and American homes. After this Captain and Mrs. Rich will travel into Holland, the old DREPARED Meats, like those here pictured, will help you solve summer food problems. Many of them are ready to eat All are easily served All are tempt ingly good, rich in food value, convenient, without waste. This group is typical of all Armour Oval Label foods.

It will be greatly enjoyed by those who love music. All ex-soldiers are requested to register in the American legion, Temporary headquarters have been established at the Army and Navy ciub, Mr. Arnold, the secretary, re ports that enrollments are coming in rapidly. The Wamm and Cluga clubs will hold a picnic in Elmwood park Tuesday evening. Games, athletic events, and a regular picnic supper will constitute some of the fun which they hope to have on this oc casion. The Nautilus club held a business meeting at the Girl's Community House Sunday afternoon and made plans for their work during the sum mer months. A class for soldiers learning to dance will be started at the Army and Navy club Wednesday evening Thousands of .soldiers crippled by the war fail to fully understand their r'ghts, particularly that involving re-education at government expense in callings suitable to their disabil ity. Col. Arthur Woods, assistant to secretary of war, says: "In some, large cities crippel men in uniform are seen on the streets, panhandling kindly disposed persons. In nearly every case these men are plain, or dinary fakers, in the guise of sol diers who have taken this method of enlisting unmerited sympathy. No man disabled in service need en gage in any sort of holdup game in the streets. Anyone seeing a man in uniform so engaged should in form him of the provision made for him by the government." Uncle Sam wants to equip all to resume their part in civil life. The soldier is given an opportunity not only to learn a good trade, but is allowed from $65 to $100 per month during the schooling period. Those wishing further infprmation can se cure it through the War Camp Com munity service. In contrast to the years of effort that woman have made for suffrage is the fact that John Lanun, of Springfield, 111., mentally and physi cally capable, has reached his 99th year without ever having cast a vote. home of Captain Rich. He came to this country in 1903 and this will be the first opportunitly that he has had to return. It was while a boy here that he received a military training in one of Holland's mili tary academies that fitted him for his captaincy in the United States army. Mrs. Rich has been trying tcj ob tain passports ever since January, 1918, when Captain Rich sailed. Dur the war this was impossible, but hers was one of the first to be re ceived when the stringent rules were lifted. Captain and Mrs. Rich will be absent about a year. i -1 ' ARMOURCOMPANY OMAHA Her Job Was Easy for a While, But She Gets a Difficult Request.
