Miss Johnson, who was a Y. M. C. A. worker, was assigned to this canteen at the time the Fifth division of the army of occupation was stationed there. The cloistered corners of the mon astery, where cowled monks had once chanted their players, resound ed to the songs and laughter of 800 southern hoys, who were keeping the Stars and Stripes waving on cbn qnered' territory. For four long vears the Germans had occupied the town, driven away by the victorious Yankees, and the large canteen was established as soon as the Americans took possession. Miss Johnson was stationed in Taris for several months when she was auditor of the "entertainers'" office. It was her task to keep the accounts of salaries which were p.iid the actors who entertained the thousands of soldiers at the various camps. So successful was Miss Johnson that she has been offered a position with the Y. M. C. A. in New York. She has not definitely decided con cerning her future plans, but will leave lot the east September 1, to spend the winter. Gentleman-Harbert.

It will be on the lawn and in the house both, as I intend to string Jap lanterns around. Here is what I want to know: Should I put in the invitations that It is a birthday party or Just a par ty? Some of my friends tell me not to, as some will say I'm giving it for the presents and might not come. But 1 do not want my friends to give me presents and that is not the reason I'm giving It. Again oth ers tell me to say it is a birthday party. I go with very nice people and I don't want anything said or thought. 1 have given lots of par ties, but this one puzzles me. Thanking you kindly, I am, MICKEY. It Is perfectly proper to state in the invitations that the party is a birthday anniversary celebration.

English Debutantes 4,000 Strong Will Be Presented In Morning Gowns. There are more than 4,000 de bjtantes awaiting their opportunity to be presented to their British majesties during the present season. This, of course, is the result of there having been no drawing rooms during the years of the war. Since it would be impossible for so many presentations to be carried out in the old formal style, the order has gore forth that there will be a series of afternoon parties, and that the presentations will be made in morning and not court dress. Mr. Oliver Bonney has returned from Mississippi where he was call ed to the death of his father. The Ideal Family Loaf. Patronize Your Neighborhood Grocer JAY BURNS BAKING CO. That blue tricotine may become the medium of developing an ex tremely dressy afternoon gown is shown in this frock of that material, which is elaborately embroidered in black silk floss and dull gold thread. The U-shaped, "jumper shows the em broidery in a very effective design. The lines of the gown are simple, to afford the best background for the beauty of the embroidery. A long tunic gives a silhouette which will be extremely popular this fall. This tunic affords an opportunity for the deep border of embroidery that fol lows the liue of the bodice. The gir dle is made of a bias slip of the ma terial, though black satin or tar nished cloth of gold may be sub stituted. The picturesque hat which accompanies this dress is black vel vet trimmed with jet.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Giving others such good advice I thought I would write to see if you would be willing to help me. I hope Mr. Wastepaper Basket Is out shopping, so he won't get my letter. My questions are these: 1. What color will be worn this winter hats and dresses? 2. Will narrow skirts be worn in winter? 3. When a boy asks to take me home or treat me and I don't want to go, what would be a good thing to say so he wouldn't get mad? 4. What would be good to say when a boy wants to put his arm around you and you don't want him to? Please give me your best advice what to say to make him mind and still not get mad. 6. Do you think a girl with a crooked nose can look pretty? Please answer these questions, as I'm waiting with all my heart to follow your good advice. Where could I get a good cook book with recipes? Thanking you very much and hoping to see the answer in The Bee. 5ay, Miss Fairfax, I often thought if the girls would write the kind of boys they like and the boys the kind of girls they like, it would help both girls and boys to improve. Don't you think so? E. C. Every color will be worn this win ter, but the latest hints say that prohibition colors will lead, such as lemonade, Bryan cocktail, orange, root beer, etc. Skirts are still quite long, but a bit wider. I cannot give you a stock phrase for declining an Invitation, but if you are polite, a well bred boy will not take offense. You will have to be firm with boys who seem inclined to take liberties with you. It is not so much a ques tion of their being angry as it is of their keeping their places. Yes, a girl with a crooked nose can be attractive. Frances White is mak ing a tremendous hit on the London stage, after becoming known all over the United States, and she has a little turned-up nose.
