Xot by the baptism of fire was she
received into the great brotherhood,
but with a sprinkling of gasoline I
Veritably, a solid gold shampoo, for
'think of the price of this sparkling
fluid! The former Omaha gift,
who has luxuriant tresses would
have much preferred hot water plus
large quantities of soap, but the
French hairdresser had it his way.
Enlisting the aid of three chap
lains. Miss Fleishman procured a
motor ride to Dijon, about 25 kilo
meters from Is-Sur-Tille, where she
is stationed, and the blithesome four
drove into town and halted in front
of the shop which bore the largest
"Coiffeur" sign and the cleanest
looking exterior. The suave-appearing,
Van Dyke bearded French
man smilingly bowed the young war
worker into his inner sanctum, en
veloped her in a large towel and be
gan operations.
She waited in pleasant anticipa
tion for the foamy lather, but none
was forthcoming. Instead a pecu
liarly familiar odor greeted her for
she had just ridden down in a leaky
Ford. Could it be, possible? In
deed, very possible for little rivers
of the gasoline were trickling down
her neck and in her eyes. With one
, wild leap she left the chair and in
a French-American combination of
sentences tried to convey to the
gentleman that she did not want a
gasoline shampoo. She begged for
hot water, but alas there was none!
What should s,he do? One glance
in the mirror at her disheveled ap
pearance and she knew that she was
at the mercy of the bearded villain
for she could not appear on the
street in that condition. So she set
tled back with a sigh of resignation
and let him have his way. A little
more patting and rubbing and whir
an electric fan was permitted to
blow her tresses about gaily. Slowly
but surely the excess eau d'automo
bile began to disappear and the
faintly sweet perfume of eau de
cologne to be substituted for it.
While behind a gaudy screen the
shop's force laughed discreetly
, about the amusing Americaine and
her ignorance of what was proper
and fitting in the best kind of a
shampoo!
"But when Miss Fleishman return-

adventure how she had fought the
whole war over again in the coiffeur
shop in Dijon not a bit of sym

Marriage Announcement
Comes as a Surprise
to Omaha Friends.'
An out-of-town wedding of wide
interest to Omahans is that of Mrs.
Charles H. Brown and Mr. George
Taylor, which took place at hierh
noon Tuesday at the home of the
bride's cousin, Mrs. Charles B.
Sears, at 849 Delaware avenue, Buf
falo, N. Y. Only the immediate
relatives were present at the cere
mony. After a short eastern trip
Mr. and Mrs. Taylor will be at home
at Great Barrington, Mass.
Mrs. Taylor, who was formerly
Miss Ella Mae Brown, was one of
the most attractive and charming of
Omaha women. Her girlhood and
early married life was spent in Oma
ha, but she has lived much in the
east during later years. She left
early in the spring for Great Bar
rington, where she has a beautiful
country home.
Mr. Taylor who is a member of
in old New England family, is a
graduate of Williams college. The
marriage announcement comes as a
surprise to Omaha friends.

Miss Alice Wheelwright of Minne
apolis, who is the guest of. Miss
Dorothy Judson, is quite like an
Omaha girl, for she has made so
many friends during her visits. She
vyas extensively entertained at
Christinas time, when she was a
house guest of the Judsons, and now
summer affairs are being planned for
her. The two pretty girls are class
mates at Miss Somer's school in

With Barnum
Who let out a secret "
"Folks want to be fooled"
He said.
Hi3 word went
The gamut
Of human endurance
Then started
All over again.
Our movie men have it"
Said one young "Mc Tavitt"
"They all like
The slapstick stu-T.
If you don't
Believe us
Just stroll in
Some evening
And .see what brings
The applause."
We did
Anl we saw
And we heard
But still we suspect
That the strongest applause
Comes from the noisy lot
Who like the
I.oud cheering
Anr' hisses and leering
So it is sad but true
That we don't think aloud
For we do like
Good music
Goc.d pictures
And vaudeville
Unfortunately
"The shallow murmur
But the deep are dumb."
So now we've decided
That although
We're against it
To clap fiercely
At the finest pictures
For if noise is the
Barometer
Of deep appreciation
Then deep appreciation
We'll show.

First Scenes for Movie.
Traffic Officer Dudley, stationed
at Sixteenth and Farnam streets,
will be shot at sun down Tuesday.
No, it isn't for offending some mot
orist who was caught speeding
down Farnam street. It is for the
Chamber of Commerce motion pic
ture. "East Meets West," and the
hour of sun down was chosen be
cause at that time there are more
automobiles skidding homeward
which gives Officer Dudley more
opportunity to use his arms.
All movie fans know the familiar
sky line of New York City that the
poor country girl sees for the first
time when she is lured to the city
by the wicked artist with the flow
ing tie. The camera man snapped
just such a view of the Omaha sky
line Tuesday morning from the Iowa
bank of the Missouri river.

discontinue the Tuesday afternoon
tears until cooler weather. Fort
Crook has, however, opened its
swimming pool and no doubt many
swimming parties will be planned.

every facility for bathers. The
women of the post, who are all very
much devoted to outdoor sports, are
enjoying the water immensely dur
ing the hot weather. Mrs. J. D.

d Unobtainable
There are several makes of high-grade wardrobe
trunks not so fine, we believe, as the Oshkosh yet
trunks that have earned a well deserved reputation.
But in every instance the enormously increased de
mands of post war travel have put these factories far
behind in their orcVrs until most of them are prac
tically unobtainable at least with any choice of
selection.
Good fortune or good
management provided this
store with an assortment
of the famed Oshkosh

isfy local consumption
and though we are selling
hundreds of them, we can
still show a complete as
sortment. $45 and up
An Oskosh at $65-
The best trunk of its price on the market today is
the Oshkosh at $65. It provides nearly all the
features of the higher priced trunks of this and
other lines. Ask us to show it to you.

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
Bashful or Bold.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are two girls of 13 and 15 and
will be in the ninth and 10th
grades. We are coming to you for
him for years. Is it proper for him to
take girls of our afte home from
parties i$ a car? We, have known
for years. Is it proper for him to
take our arm while walking home
from any social doings? Should
we allow him to put his arm around
us while riding in his car?
One of us refused to kiss a boy
one night while coming home from
a party. He told some boys and
now they nick-named me "Bash
ful." What would you do about it?
Please answer this soon, as we are
anxious to know.
RIETA AND MAY.
Provided the boy is respectable lt
is all right to ride home with him
if he goes directly there. Have
you girls only one arm for the two
of you? Since you have only one,
according to your letter, you had
better not let him take it, as he
might keep the arm. I think the
boy would have a rather difficult
time to put one arm around two
girls and' drive the car with the
other. He had better behave hlm-
V self and avoid an automobile acci
dent. Which would you prefer to
be nicknamed, - Bashful" or "Bold?"
Carter Lake Club.
T. Wearne entertained five guests
at dinner at the Carter Lake club
Monday evening. Foursomes were
given by H. M. Thompson, A. F.
Sorenson and Albert Edholm.
A. L. Meager of Sioux City is vis
iting at the home of A. F. Sorenson.
Church Picnic.
The ladies' auxiliary of the Park
vale Presbyterian church will give
their annual picnic at Hanscom
park, Thursday.
Picnic Party.
A picnic was given Sunday af
Lake Manawa, by the Cudahy Pack
ing company for their office em
ployes. Veils were originally worn by
Jewish women with the idea of cov
ering up their hair.
A Would-Be Movie Star.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
have often read you "Advice to
the Lovelorn," also your advice on
many other subjects, so I have de
cided to see what you could do for
me. No, my case is not about love
affairs, as I have failed to reach
the stage where I could express my
affections for the opposite sex pub
licly. 1 am a middle-sized young girl,
16 years of age. I am not considered
pretty in personal looks, but they
say that "handsome is as handsome
does," and that is where I get my
popularity. I have considerable
talent for music and dancing and I
would like to join the movies.
Everybody says they think I could
do well in the movies, especially in
the comedies.
Can you tell me where "I could
gain any information concerning this
subject? I am almost through lugn
school, but would like to get som
training before I become too old.
Do you think if I wrote to one of
the "stars" that I rould receive any
valuable information?
They say it takes money to be
come an actress, but as Jar as that
is concerned, my folks are well-to-do
and could easily stand the ex
pense. I have two chums who
would also like to Join, but their
financial conditions might prevent
their doing so.
Thanking you kindly, your grate
ful friend, DARLENE.
About the last thing in the world
I should advise a girl to do is join
the movies. The life is fuMl of sacri
fice, the work is hard and uncertain.
It your folks have plenty of money
you can find happiness in a much
better place than a movie show,
Not one girl In a thousand becomes
a star.
In Norway, a husband and wif
who wish to part have first to apply
to a magistrate, who sends them to
a conciliation board, a committee
which investigates the case and tries
to reconcile the couple, and per
suade them to try again, if the at
tempt does not succeed they are
granted a separation order. At the
end of one year the ministry of
justice is bound to make the divorce
final if asked to do so by either
party. The whole proceedings are
very cheap, the cost ranging from
$1 to $2 up to $25.
