NAL, who had come back, just like
big buzzing annoying fly. Laugh,
and call out the Rosy Pops"
Peggy didn't know what he
meant by the Rosy Pops, and she
didn't feel like laughing. Just then:
however, Captain Dismal, flying
through the air from the Giants
bat, bumped into Blue Jay, who was
cheering on the Giants attack. Blue
Jay made a grab at him, got him
by one foot and shook him vigor-
ously. The sight was so funny THAT
Peggy burst out in a merry peal of
laughter.
The effect was surprising. The
Blue Imps were thrown into tang
ling commotion. Peggy felt a
slight loosening of the letters
which bound her At the same, time
there' appeared above the Giants
head what looked like a beautiful
big pink butterfly.
Good! Laugh again! Bring the
Rosy Pops" shouted the Giant.
With that he batted another Blue
Imp, sending him somersaulting in
to bed of burrs at the side of the
road. The Blue Imp looked as stuck
Up and amazed as he tried to get
out Of the burrs that Peggy laughed
again. Once more there was COM
motion among the Blue Imps; once
more Peggy felt loosening Of her
letters; and another pink flyer ap-
peared above the Giants head.
Now the pink flyers came near,
and to Peggy's establishment she
found that they were not butter
flies at all. They were tiny doll
like knights clad in pink armor
and borne on pink wings. In the
hands of each flashed a sharp pink
sword.
"Hurrahl Now we'll whip the
Blue Imps," shouted the Giant, bat
ting an Imp high in the air. The
first winged knight -darted after the
Imp. His sword flashed into the
Imp's body. "Pop!" went the Imp,
exploding just like toy balloon.
This was so unexpected and there
was such queer look on the Imp's
face as he vanished, that Peggy
let out another squeal of laughter.
A third winged knight flashed
into view, and with his fellows he
went after the Blue Imps with
vengeance. Pop, pop, popp went
the Imps, bursting like lot of fire
crackers on the Fourth of July.
The more they popped" the harder
Peggy laughed, and the harder she
laughed the more winged knights
appeared, and the faster the Blue
Imps disappeared.
In trice there were more winged
knights than Blue Imps. Then the
Blue Imps, with yells of rage and
fear, went bounding away as fast
as they could.
"Well done, Rosy Peps," shouted
the painting Giant. "We saved Prin-
cess Peggy just in time"
Il thSnk you" cried Peggy. "And
I'm happy to make your
acquaintance"
ooh, we've known you long
time and have. guarded you many
times from the Blue Imps," spoke
up a particularly handsome knight,
who introduced himself as Sin
Ready Smiler. To-day, however,
you drove us away with your cross
frown and sour thoughts and gave
the Blue Imps a chance to catch
you"
iii not do it again." promised
Peggy. "You hadn't better" said
the Giant, "for we might not be on
hand to save you"
Just then Blue Jay, who had
secuted after the Imps, came flying |
back
Come quick" he shrieked. IA
whole army of Blue Imps has cap
tured Mrs. Dalton, mother of Sol
diers Bill and Ben" |
Tomorrow will be told how Peggy. the |
Giant and the Rosy Pops go to the rescue |
Of the soldiers mother.)

"Whoop! went Captain Dismal,

ball hit by bat. Over and over
he whirled, cutting such comical
figure that Peggy you'd have
laughed if she hadn't been so much
excited and puzzled over the
strangeness~of the situation.
Fair BALL" shouted the Giant.
and with that he grabbed up an
other Blue Imp, threw him into tthe
air, and batted him far away, Then
he batted a third and fourth,
laughing with glee as he did SO.
Peggy began to hope that he
would brighten the Imps away, but
no! While they covered back every

again, and as they did so she found
herself wrapped up in more and
more fine threads, while the number
of the Blue Imps increased until she
couldn't count them.

SOCIETY
PROBABLY no other club in N,

n ROBABLY no other club in the
city has worked so untiringly
or accomplished such results
as the Dundee Woman's Patriotic
club. This coterie OF matrons
through their own efforts, have
placed two young women, Miss
Helen Cornell and Miss Frances
Nieman, in canteers in France and
were planning to assist in financing
two more girls when the recruiting
tor canteen workers ended.
Miss Helen Cornell, who is sery-
ing in a station canteen at Cha
teauroux, France, has written the
women of the club of the needs of
the men, who returned from the front.
Many OF the warriors had lost their
comfort kits and were without the
small necessities so important to
ones comfort. Without money, very
often new kits were quite out OF
the question. No sooner had Miss
Cornells letter been received than
the club voted $50 to be sent to her
that she might purchase kits for the
men who needed them.
With the war at an end, the &C.
Invites of the club have been eur
tailed to some extent, but the
women will devote their efforts now
to assisting in every way possible
the reconstruction work. Their
emissaries lover there" will act as
their agents, as Miss Nieman has
also been assigned to a post of duty

Red Cross Notes

Fixing quotas base been such a
familiar feature of previous CAM
paigns, whether to sell Liberty
bonds or to raise Welfare and relief
funds, that the failure to assign a
quote to Omaha in the Red Cross
Christmas roll call is arousing dis
cussion.
The reason given by the local
Red Cross chapter is logical. The
Red Cross is so widely known and
SO strongly approved that the goal
of the Christmas roll call is moth
ing short of universal member
ship" In other words, the census
figures will be Omaha's quota, as
they will be for the whole nation.
The week of December 1923 will
see this apparently formidable task
accomplished, because there will be
an eager spirit of cooperation.
More than 100000 present men,
bers i'll the United States will an
swer "here," and it is the hope of
the Red Gross war council that ire
Bile or quadruple that number will
join and so permit Christmas eve
cable to Europe that the American
people are solidly behind the Red
Cross spirit.
The Red Cross Christmas roll
call is not an effort to raise money,
and no one in Omaha will be asked
for contributions. The annual men,
bership dues amount to only 81.
Omaha undoubtedly has as many
dollars for the Red Cross as there
a,e adults in its population.
Owing to the street car strike, the
chorus rehearsal for the Red Cross
masque Which was to have been
held this evening, has been post
pcned. The date o., the rehearsal
will be announced through the press
ard every one who reads music is
urged to attend.

The characteristic design OF the

been offered unauthoritatively for its

the element of safety that such shape
of hood embodies.
The man who has been accustomed

the wheel of almost any other car to
appreciate the advantage the Frank

THE conventional type of hood with
