OMAHA JEWS TO DO
SHARE FOR RELIEF
julius Rosenwald to Give One
Dollar for Every Ten Com
mittee Raises.
TO START HERE WITH BALL

Upon receipt of word today by
Morris Levy, treasurer of the local
Jewish war relief committee, that Ju-
lius Rosenwalt, president of a large
Chicago mercantile company, had Of
fered the American Jewish relief COM
nittee 100000 for every $l000,000
raised by the committee, Omaha Jews
began to bend with renewed energy
efforts to raise their share.
The Rosenwald offer followed an
announcement by Henry Morgenthau
of the American Jewish relief COM
mittee that $l0,000,000 must be raised
in the United States by June 1 if
the 100000 Jews in the eastern war
zone are to be saved from starvation.
A nationwide campaign, the Omaha
committee has been advised, will start
at once. Prominent Jews will make
coast-to-coast trips, stopping at the
various cities to address mass meet
ings and the like.
To Give One Tenth.
The total sum Mr.. Rosenwald COIL
ditionally offers toward the relief is
100000. He will give this sum. he
says, II the committee raises $l0,-
100000. He will pay 100000 as each
81 100000 is raised between this date
and November |. Mr., Rosenwald in
making his offer to the committee in
his telegram said that thousands of
Jewish men, women and children were
dying in Europe from cold and star
vation and that "this colossal trag-
edy constitutes an obligation upon
American Jews that must be met to
the point of sacrifice. The Russian
revolution affords our people the
channel for which they have waited
for long centuries. II is not life
alone that we can give them, but
strength and courage to take their
part in the great drama Of freedom"

A duplicate Rosenwald offer in be-
half Of the Jewish war sufferers re-
lief fund is made by Morris Levy,
Omaha philanthropist and treasurer
of the local relief fund.
For every $1,000 raised in Omaha
for the Jewish relief fund Mr.. Levy
will give 500, he announced OIL re-
ceipt OF news of Julius Rosenwald's

BABY BRIDE WANTS
TO WE'D BETRAYER
Ruby Hutchinson, II, Would
Save Walter Raueche from
Prison Sentence.
TEMPTED BY CITY LIGHTS

Whether Walter Raueche will take
a baby bride into a honeymoon home
or whether he will start doing a long
term in the state penitentiary for
wronging the child whom he intro
duced as his wife depends solely upon
the attitude of the county prosecutor
at North Platte. The girl, Ruby
Elois Hutchinson, IA years old, who
was arrested in Omaha with Raueche,
has volunteered to marry him to save
him from prison.
Sheriff Salisbury of North Platte
took Raueche and the Hutchinson
girl back to that town Thursday.
Charges Of being fugitives from JUS
tice are pending against them there
But much more serious charge will
be lodged against Raueche if the
county attorney refuses to sanction
his marriage to the child. 1t is un-
derstood that Ed Cahil. Of North
Platte, Ruby's step-father, is much
averse to the proposed nuptials and
wants Raueche sent to prison for be-
traying his girl.
Ruby herself was almost blithe as
she was led away from the big city.
~ didn't see much Of Omaha this
time" she said smiling, "but I'll
come back some day and take a good
look at the town."

Railroad Man Says
Way to Get Rates
Is to Ask for Them

The Missouri Pacific company oper.
ates one of the direct lines between
Omaha and Kansas City and freight
officials admit that the rate on hay
is 9 cents per 100 pounds from here
to Kansas City, while from there here
it is but 6 cents.
There is an apparent discrimina-
ton against Omaha and in favor OF
Kansas City" asserted Assistant
General Freight Agent Dozier, add
ing, but who's to blame? Ger
tainly it is not the railroad company"
Explaining his statement, Mr.. Do
zier said: IF Omaha has hay to ship
to the south, the way to get rate is
to ask for it. When the present g.
cent rate was made on hay shipments
from Omaha to Kansas City it was at
a time when no hay was shipped south
from this market and, so far as that
goes, there is not very much shipped
now.
kansas City in times past had a
rate similar to the Omaha rate, but
the hay merchants there probably
found that they had hay to ship north.
They went after the rate and got it.
And, while l am not speaking with au-
thority, presume that if Omaha will
demonstrate that it has hay to send
to Kansas City it can get just as good
a rate there as Kansas City has here.
The distance to Kansas City is just
about the same as the distance from
Kansas City here.
"One thing is certain relative to
rates, and that is the best possible
way to get them is to ask for them
and at the same time show why
they should be granted"

already. Flowers, candy and cigars
will also be sold to help swell the
total.
The local committee also intends
to solicit subscriptions with renewed
vigor, not only to get new subscrip-
tions. but to increase those now being
received.
The national relief committee has
pledged itself to raise the $l0,000,000
so as to secure Mr.. Rosenwald's full
million, and Omaha intends to do at
least its share, il not little more.

To Make Hairs Vanish
From Face, Neck or Arms

Keep a little powdered delatone
handy and when hairy growths ap-
pear make a paste with some of the
powder and little water, then spread
over hairy surface. After 2 or 3
minutes rub off, wash the skin and it
will be entirely free from hair or
blemish. This simple treatment is
unfailing, but care should be exercised
to be sure and get genuine delatone,
otherwise you may be disappointed.

| The Harrison antf-drug law which
requires that the sale Of all narcotic
drugs be made upon registered pre-
scription, has greatly reduced the
number Of dope fiends in this ter
rftory, according to DR.. Richard G.
Aver, police and emergency hospital
surgeon. The law was passed by the
federal government a little over two
years ago.
Although there is still consider
able amount of opium being used
among the Chinese here, the Harri-
SON law has been pretty nearly sue
cessful in eliminating the morphine
habit" says DR.. Aver.
"The closing Of Iwilei stopped quite
an extensive Illicit traffic in drugs"
declared DR.. Aver, "for in the dis.
trict there were many persona VINO

Now that physicians are heic re-
sponsible for the< prescription Of
drugs, there il no use Of drugs that
cannot be watched by the federal au-

citizens Of Honolulu with water, Is

Sunday afternoon he went down for

yards beyond the diving stand.
As he floated over the sWells an
object further out attracted his atten.

for a few strokes, however, for It

Immediately had pressing business to
attend to on shore. Its body floated

The only thing he regrets, Murray
says. is that no one was there to

Later in the day an outrigger canoe

servants on the run supplying them
with the things they had TO borrow.
| Nobody loves a dead beat.
Eleventh don't Don't flirt with
your hostess husband, nor with her
sons. nor her brothers. It's a peculi-
arfty Of woman that even the most
heroic of them can't endure to see
the men they love making love to an
other woman Wait until you get a
man out Of his home and from under
the eyes Of his female relatives before
you get sentimental with him.
Twelfth don't. Don't make any I'M
necessary trouble for the servants,
and don't withhold the tip from the
maid to whose burdens you are, ad-
ding. Keep your own room tidy. Hang
up your clothes. Straighten up your
dresser. and be not sparing Of small
change to faithful Mary who hooks
you up, and obliging Eliza who pres
ses out your chiffons.
Chief among those who are never
asked a second time are those nickel
nursing guests who keep the maids
on a trot doing chores for them and
who think they have sufficiently re-
warded such service by handing out
few words of thanks and a dinky
pocket handkerchief upon their de-
parture. The servants determine the
invitation list oftener than you think,
so If you want to be a popular guest
who is much sought after, be not one
Of those whose coming makes Hilda
and Dinah threaten to give notice
Thirteenth don't. Don't visit if you
are on a diet. If you cannot eat any
thing from caviar to fried turnpike
rocks, stay at home. No hospitality,
no affection, no personal charm can
stand the strain Of having to cook
up separate messes for a food fad
dist. A guilty conscience and an up
set stomach are two things that de-
cency requires we should deal with
only in strict privacy, and so unless
you can follow the biblical Injunction
and eat what is set before you and
ask no questions, either remain in
your own house or else go to a hotel
where you can pay for the trouble
you give.
Fourteenth don't. And this Is the
most important. of all. After you have
visited in house, never forget that
NUNS the word. Never repeat what
you have heard. Never reveal what
you saw when the family skeleton cup
board door was left ajar. You have
eaten your hosts bread and salt and
that makes them sacred to you.
