Return of
1 Students
The first week? of June will bring
a number of Omaha school girls
from their colleges in the east. On
Saturday, Miss Camillia Edholm,
fiaughter of Mrs. K. R. J. Edholm,
and Miss Elizabeth Austjn, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Austin,
arrived in Omaha from Simmons
college, Massachusetts. They were
accompanied by -Miss Jean Ken
nedy,, daughter of Mrs. Alfred C
Kennedy. She has been a student
at Mount .'Holyolee college during
the past jfcar. Many are the inter
esting stories these . girls have to
ttfl of their school experiences and
letters relating these incidents are
treasured very'mqeh by their pa
rents. The following are excerpts
from a letter written by Camilla
Edholm to her mother, shortly be
fore the' closing of the school year
at Simmons college,
"This has been the most exciting
weekl It's junior week, you know,
when the juniors have their first
prom and are waited on by all the
other classes, and begin to come into
their own as the topmost class in
college. It's the custom for the
seniors to surprise the juniors some
night of the week with a serenade.
and the juniors are so afraid they'll
be caugpt away from their tradi
tional perch on top of the colonnade
between the south hall and the
refectory, that they send for us
little freshmen to come in and do
some spying! Then the ophomores
run to the aid of their sister class,
and for no particular reason, I guess,
except to make trouble, they do all
they can to get possession of the
Suite leading out on the colonnade
and then they steal a few caps and,
gowns to parade around the campus
in and worry the poor juniors. The
classes are so big that even the dor-
uuiuiy gins aicu i buic oi uicir
classmates (except the rn$t promi
nent ones) and almost any one in a
cap and'gown can 'get away' as a
senior. v
"We were down on the cairmus
two nights before the serenade came
off, and many were the tricks
played in spite of onrjraliant barri
cading ot stairs and mysterious
passwords. By Wednesday night
the1 sophomores had the Suite in
their possession, the glo6my Bos
ton drizzle had ceased and the moon
was out, so that everyone jvas sure
the seniors wouldn't hesitate to take
advantage of the change in weather.
And, sure enough at 9 o'clock the
whole class of seniors came singing
around 'the corner of the refectory,
all in caps and gowns and carrying
Japanese lanterns. Then, at the
last moment, the sophomores re
lented and vacated the suite and '21
rushed in and scrambled out on the
colonnade, from where they received
the greetings of the seniors and re
plied with, some of the cleverest
songs I hive ever heard. They
Roe, soprano, pupil of Louise Jan-sen'-Wylie,
will assist. The program
will be given by the following: Mary
Jane ' Monaghan, Frances Simon.
Cornelia Storrs, Gertrude Marsh,

When the'se pretty Omaha girls
display their wares at the Junior
league frolic the evening of June
IS, at the Country club, do you
think anyone will be able to resist?
Won't everyone wish to purchase
cigarets when Miss Louise Dinning
is the sales girl? And what "sweet
tooth" will not long for candy as
Meliora Davis offers dainty bon
bons? Even a flower stand is not
to be omitted from the many at
tractions at the frolic. Mrs. George
B. Thummell will be in charge and
hopes to put a dainty corsage or gay
boutonniere on every one who at
tends. Several numbers have been added
to the program of vaudeville stunts
for the Frolic. Kenneth and Rud
yard Norton will give an imitation
of Fanny Brice's spring dance; Dr.
H. A. Wagoner will have his saxo
phone band and give selections and
sanjr, of course, with all the good
will in the world, although up to
that minute the contest had been
quite bitter. I never realized the
full meaning of student government
until the other nht before the' ser
enade, when, at 10 o'clock, Mary
Kimball, president of student gov
ernment, came to the head of the
stairs and said ouietlv to that sauab-
bline bunch of juniors, soohs and
freshmen, "This is going to Stop
now, girls, and we re all going to
ted right away." That crOwd sim
ply melted away without a murmurl
It certainly is a different spirit from
that of always leading the matron
a merry chase.
"If I weren't in such a hurry to
get, home I'd like to stay over for
commencement, for it's to be the
most impressive they've ever had.
That week, of course, outshines the
juniors' week by "far with its many
affairs. It certainly breaks my heart
to think of that wonderful senior
class leaving us they're all Such
peaches."

Russian Children
Have Scout
American Girl Scouts received the
first word from their Russian col
leagues in more than a year when
Maurice Ross of Stooklyn, who has
just returned from Siberia, called at
the Girl Scout national headquarters
in New York City recently, bring
ing the greeting of the combined
troops of Sibera. The headquarters
of tne Siberian Girl Scouts are "at
Irkutsk, a city of 150,000 people and
the capital of Siberia. Irkutsk lies
in the midst of the vast Siberian
steppes near the shore of Lake
Baikal, five days' journey from Eu
ropean Russian.
According to Mr. Ross, no girl
scout organization had ever been
formed in Siberia, until a book on
scouting, by Sir Robert Baden
Powell, which had been translated'
into Russian, found its way into the
city. The Russian girls were so en
thusiastic that they organized them
selves into troops and persuaded the
boys to join them. During the time'
when the armies of Admiral Kolchak
were fighting with the bolsheviki for
possession of Irkutsk, the boy and
girl scouts rendered valuable serv
ice in much the same manner as
they did in this country during the
way.
; Mr. Ross organized a playground
in his work for the children of Ir
kutsk in which the Boy and Girl
Scout sassisted him. The Russian
Girl Scouts learned with great in
terest from Mr. Ross of the pro
ficiency of their American Girl Scout
sisters in domestic activities, cook
ing, first aid, dressmaking and child
nursing and wanted to be taught
these things in their own troop
w6rk. All of the- Russian Girl
Scout troops are drawn from the in
telligent classes of Siberia and are
non-bolshevik in sentiment, accord
ing to Mr. Ross.

Dr. Anna Shaw
Memorial Is
Defined
Mrs. H. C. Sumney is the Ne
bra'ska state chairman for the Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw memorial. An
appeal for this memorial, sent out
from the national committee in
charge, says:
"Dr. Anna Howard Shaw has won
her long fight. x
"She toiled for four decades that
women might be free. All that the
women had struggled to attain
through the years she gained for
their heritage.
"That other women might know
the joys of achievement, she broke
new trails to far horizons. . A be
loved pioneer, she led in securing
higher education and the opening of
new professions for women. She
always maintained a steadfast and
unshakable belief that God created
all men and all women equal.
"So simple, sincere and true was
her faith, it did not matter to her
that she traveled so much of the dis
tance alone. Forsaken by her fam
ily and friends, she faced cold, hun
ger and personal sacrifice to become
a minister of the gospel.
"From the little parish on Cape
Cod, she went to Boston to study
medicine. She made the war easier !
for the women physicians who came
after her.
"Guiding force of a new era, she
faced the endless tedium and dull
ness of long campaigns that the
messages of the political equality
of women might go forward. And
always, even when she faced the sun
set, there was one great inspiration
in ner me wnat tnis would mearf. J
to the women who would follow her. rVT
"Anna Howard Shaw was a great
figure in the history of the women
who have helped to make America.
The memory of her life will live in
the hearts of women who stand to
day on the threshold of a boundless
future.
"To those of us( who knew and
loved her best, stone or bronze
would fail to symbolize her spirit.
Her far-reaching vision is better ex
pressed in a living, growing me
morial, which will open other new
fields for women in the future, as
she opened them in the past.
"It is therefore planned to raise
$500,000 to establish a two-fold me
morial a foundation in . political
science at Bryn Mawr college and a
foundation in preventive medicine at
the Woman's Medical college of
Pennsylvania.
"This will be the first great na
tional memorial dedicated to a wom
an by the American women she
loved and served.
"Every woman in America should
join in this thank-offering to express
her gratitude, for the great victory,
so hardly won.
"Give as your heart dictates.
"Anna Howard Shaw gave her
best.
The astonishing statement made
recently to the effect that in some
districts of Wales miners have been
known to sell their wives, is a re
minder that the practice is the sur
vival of an old custom. Less than
a century ago wives were offered
by auction to the highest bidder in
public places in different parts of
England, although the practice was
never sanctioned by law. Prices
ranged upwards from 1 shilling.
from ) to di shillings appears to
have been considered a good price
