14 THE BEE: OMAHA. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 16, 1920. n ! A n Funeral for Baby , Killed in Crash Services Held for Young Vic tim of Automobile Accident Mother Grief-Stricken. Funeral services fon Catherine Kerns, 8 months old, ,3527 Charles ttreet, who was killed Tuesday by an automobile driven by her father' when it turned turtle at Forty-third street and Military avenue, ; were Veld late yesterdaf afternoon from Genfjeman chapel.- y I'll lata! ride of the baby in the automobile was the child's first and l only trip in a motor car. Physical injuries received by her father and inother and two small sisters re ceived in the accident were forgot ten yesterday as the little family gathered to take part in the last rites over the body of their dead baby. ' The family was enroute downtown from their home when the accident occurred. Attempting to slacken the speed of the'ear in turning the corner at Forty-third street and Military avenue, the clutch stuck and the brake failed to work, the fa ther said. The car lurched fr.om the street car tracks and turned turtle twice. ' ' The baby was pinned underneath, her head fractured and her chest crushed. She died 10 minutes later in the Methodist hospital. Helen, 3, and Theresa, 2, suffered cuts and bruises about the legs.' Their par ents were bruised about the body. Burial of the little accident victim was in Holy Sepulcher cemetery.. Holding a Husband Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife The Shock That Madge Gave Dicky. If I had not been so keyed" up with far different emotions I, should have been competed to laugh heart ily at Dicky's face and manner when J.-flung my question concerning -"brace Jjraper at him. , His blustering manner, fell from hire like a cloak suddenly swept off by an unexpected gale,' ahdViis eyes reminded me irresistibly of the sau cers" to which the amazed, inquir ing eyes of children , are so often compared. "Then you know-r" ha- said at last with astonishment in his. voice. 1 , readjusted my mental back ground quickly.. .1, had .nyant ,to startle Dicky with a guess. I now had to pretend a knowledge which I had not possessed until , that mo ment, a knowledge, moreover, which filled me with , infinite dread and horror. But not to Dicky or any other would I confess my terrified bewild-1 itrmctit. 1 braced myself to coolness of speech and action. "Of course -1 know," I said with just the suspicion of a sneer in my voice, "and I. .am. natpra.Hy curious 1o find out just why she should wish to come down, here, ind why it was necessary to throw such se- .. crecy about her arrival. I suppose she is the 'danger' to which you and Major Grantland had alluded?" My goading of Dicky was delib erate. I know, him well enough .to realize that when he is furiously angry his tongue1 is loosened, and lie willblurt out things which other wise he would ;kcep securely under guard.' ' His eyes flamed with anger, and he took a step toward me.' Angry and Reckless., , "There's . one thing you can get out of your mind, pronto.'fie cried. ,"I don't think the girl is any more it danger than that sheep-eyed Man-1 ; dy who cleans, the , kettles. Grant kmd's got some fool Idea n. his head that she's a wolf-ess in sheep's cloth ing, roaming around to devour some tender little lamb like you. But if you should ask me I'd tell you that in ray opinion it's all cursed rot. I donx, think Grate is trailing you at all. She's had a most awful experi ence, and she probably has friends rich .enougjj. to finance -iv trip down here, even if she hasn't enough ma zuma herself. And all the world 'comes down to this section when it's ' tired. The government has set . her free, you know. She's not fated as a criminal. She can go where , she chooses." "That is very patent," J said dry ly. "But will you kindly explain why, ' if you think there-is no menace to , me in her presence here, you should have supported Majoi'1 Grantland in his; demand for me te stay indoors j a plan which you evidently deem ab surd?", ' .' .'' V "You're right. 'Absurd' is a mild rame to apply to it, but what else vasI to do?

It would simply be nuts for him all right, all right; if I had, but d n him, "I 'didn't 'give him that chancel" f' Dicky Is Astounded. AH the jealousy and venomous dis like which JDicky's heart holds for the army officer, were expressed in lis tone. I should have fortborne to arouse him further, but his careless disregard of a danger which 1 knew Major Grantland must deem very real, made me coldly angry and reck less of consequences. ; "Not all-Trwir friends share your childish and tonehing belief that there is no menace in Miss Draper's nearness to me," I said mockingly. 'Lillian, for ihstance, was quite ex ercised over her release from pris on.'' - "Lil !,' The astonished monosyllable seemed to ecno inrougn tne room. ' "Why, how long have you known ' that "thcgirl was out of prison?" ' "Since the dav she was released."

But, as a matter of fact, two terms have a common origin: Unlike the "Beautiful Bine Danube," which is really a dirty yellowish brown, the Red Sea is really red the color being due to the prevalence of a minut? bright red plant, a kind of sea weed. This plant is satd to be so small that 25,000,000 can live and thrive within a single cubic inch of water. Therefore, instead of being' mottled with red, the sea appears in many cases, to be of a scarlet shade. A red aye,. which tradition says was used hundreds of years ago, is made from this w,eed, but in the places where it is found, the waters of the Red Sea are as blue or green as those of any other body of water.

Bad News, When Johnnie Green fastened the tin can to 'the tree in the doorvard he couldn't have picked out a better spot for it. Uf course, he hopedthat a pair of wrens, would build their nest inside. the syrup can. But what he never dreamed was that the cherry tree was exactly the sort of tree that .wrens liked. - It was not that Rusty and his wife cared for cherries. But as soon as "Jasper Jay has heard about these cherries," he announced. Mrs. Wren had said how much she liked her new house she remarked that the old cherry tree was a fine place to hunt for bugs and insects. "Yes!" Rusty agreed. '"'And there's an ant hill near the foot of the tree. It will be very convenient on stormy days, for we shall not have to go far for our breakfast." Not being fond of cherries, they did' riot look, forward to the time '.when the bright red fruit should hang gaily upon the branches above their home. .

He was so cheerful and jrood-na- tured that Rusty Wren and his wife did not object to Jolly's visits so long as" he did not venture too near their house.
