PNEUMONIA AND IgFL UENZA
VACCEnJES I'M USE All TIE CAMP
Still in Experimental Stage,
Authorities Say. But Excel
lent Results Obtained

Vaccines against influenza and against
pneumonia are now available for men
at Camp Hancock. Only one ilocuta-
ton is necessary and this gives tempo
rary protection against the disease The
reaction to the inject ion CT the VecCines
resembles shat Of typhoid, ana is ge0sr-
al less severe.
The vaccine has been prepaid by army
authorities It's use is not compulsory
and only those who desire to be- iunocu-
lated Will have the vaccine enjected The
order describing the benefits Of the vac
cine states that il win be administered
only with the consent of the individual
The vaccine Is now available for any
who desire it and can be obtained by
applying to the respective organization
surgeons, The benefits Of such a vaccine
iannot be unGervalued. Last winter, one
half Of a certain division was inoCculated
against pneumonia. and during the ten
weeks from the period OF vaccination
until the troops embarked for overseas
there was not even one case of pneumOn-
Ia among th0s troops V9CCinated against
this form of disease while in the other
half of the division had a slight increase
in pneumonia cases in that time.
Experiments in South Africa by Lister
and the recent excellent results Obtained
by innoculation in the United States Army
show the great value Of this form of pre-
ventive measure In South Africa. in the
past four years. Lister has innoculated
persons against the most prevalent types
Of pneumonia and during that time not
them against developed. The individuals
were under observation for a period Of
nine months and proved to be immune
against the disease.
The effectiveness Of the influenza in
incubation in controlling the epidemic
however, must be considered as stfu in
experimental stage. The influenza iujec-
ton may be given at the same time as
the pneumonia vaccine. These Vaceines
are standardized and their protective eff
ticiency established by Investigations in
the army, SO that Only vaccines obtained
from the Army Medical School shall be
used when requested.

as if to finish him then and there
But Roland was ready for him. He
jumped suddenly aside to avoid
Viga's blow and caught the other
wrist in his hand. With a quick turn
he pressed the knife against Viga's
breast and bore the Older man down
upon it. Viga's doom seemed GER
tain when Tirzah, queen of the
Gypsies, spoke.
You have won, Roland. Viga's
life is in your hands to take or to

Roland looked at the queen. Then
he spoke:
"Viga is old. Once he served the
band we'll in leadership. Remember
ing that, give him his life. But
from this day forth Tirzah rules
alone. The former order is changed.
No longer shall our band be child

A Nebraska Thanksgiving
Dinner

The federal food administration
for Nebraska sends a Thanksgiving
message to US: 1T seems most fit
ting that, in view of the cessation OF
hostiities in Europe and the dawn
of peace conditions in the world, the
traditional Thanksgiving day should
take on new meaning. AS nation,
as families and as individuals. we
have much for which to give thanks.
Success has come to our armies. our
homes have been preserved and we,
as individuals, have been spared
the sufferings that have been fright
fully common in Europe. Americans
will feel called upon to express graft
tude for blessings already bestowed
and to offer a prayer of duplication
in behalf of suffering Europe.
when the need for conservation
of food is so great one may easily
be led to feel that it is unpatriotic
to make Thanksgiving day a day of
feasting No family needs, however.

SOCIETY

4 "FABRIQUE" has been es-
n tablished in Omaha. In the
large, sunny rooms OF the
First Presbyterian church 100 vol
unteer workers gathered TO launch
ne factory Wednesday, with MISS
Jessie Willard as forewoman. While
busy fingers few, the minds OF the
women were no doubt with their
allied sisters, for the warm gar
ments and Comfort bags" will be
sent across the seas to the destitute
women and children OF France.
Thi. week 1856 OF these bags were
finished, which will be filled with
the small necessities, so dear 10
feminine hearts. Patterns will ar
rive soon for the garments which
are so badly needed by the French
women who are returning to their
broken homes, now that the gray
hordes of the Hun have retreated.
The signing OF an armistice calls tor
more work even than the guns OF
war, for the French sufferers look
to their American sisters for succor
in this time of need. More workers
are urged to enroll for work in the
fabrque and spend the day, as
luncheon will be served at noon.
The tiny red socks with their
shining dimes are being rapidly
filled and returned to Mrs. Arthur
Crittenden Smith, local chairman
for the American committee for de-
vastated France. Fifty cents is the
quota for each sock and these five
dimes mean a pair of stockings, a
toy, candy and pair of mittens for
some French child who might 9TH
erwise believe that the good St;
Nicholas was among the missing.
Ten little girls Of the eighth grade
in Hawthorne school have COM
pleted 20 wooden dresses for girls
OF their own age in devastated
France. The dresses are of Scotch
plaid and were turned over to the
Duryea Relief workers for trans
portation to France.
Miss Stella Holmes, teacher, di-
rected the efforts OF the young
seamstresses, who are Goldie Nc
Adams, Gladys Brooker, Selma
Martin, Reah Haning, Anna Mark,
Florence Weir, Esther Hass, May
Carroll, Lena Brosh and Rose
Lynn.
Vassar club members who spon-
sor the Duryea Relief work in Oma-
ha have already shipped their 46th
box. Headquarters are maintained

CHAPTER vi.
The Flight in the Dark.

DEGGY, now that she was free
from the spell of Gypsys
charm, was her old tender
hearted sympathetic self again. And
SO she was sorry that she had struck
Viga with the dagger. She did not
want to hurt any one that way, even
in self-defense.
There were loud shouts from the
Gypsy camp as she and Billy Bel
GUM fed toward the dark woods.
And now the children came dash
ing after them in full chase. Some
of the Gypsy lads were strong run
ners. They were sure to be caught.
Then help came from an unex-
pected source.
Here! Herep hooted Judge Owl,
appearing before them. He flutter-
ed along ahead, leading the way in
to a clump of big oaks. Rushing af-
ter him. Peggy and Billy found
themselves in huge hollow tree. up
here, quick!" whispered Judge Owls
voice above them.
Obeying him, they climbed up in
side the tree, finding ladder-like
iootholds in the decayed wood In
moment they were safe and snug,
high out of reach. and with big
opening in the tree in front of them
so that they could look out upon the
Gypsy camp.
They could see the children. the
women and some of the men search
ing for them, but they themselves
were securely out of sight.
For few moments Peggy and
Billy were so upset over their mar
row escape that they noticed moth
ing but the fact that their pursuers
had been thrown off the track and
were ranging far away through the
woods seeking vainly to find them.
Then Billy nudged Peggy and
pointed to the center If the camp.
There was being fought the first duel
Peggy had ever seen.
The fighters were Viga and Ro-
land. The older Gypsy was in a
great rage over the wound he had re-
ceived from Peggy's tiny dagger,
and was further Infatuated by Ro-
lands protection of the fugitives.
He had whipped out his own knife
and leaped to meet the younger man.
Roland had lodged him and retreat
ed toward the open place before the
fire. Now the two were circling
around each other, seeking an open
ing at each other.
Suddenly Viga sprung at Roland
with knife uplifted. Roland caught
the blade of the knife on the hilt of
his own weapon and warded off the
bow. Viga had thrown his whole
weight into the attack, however. and
he bore Roland backward to the
ground. There they wrestled and
tumbled in frenzied battle, each seek
ing to reach the other with his
krife and to block the others deadly
thrusts.
Peggy held her breath in horror.
She had never witnessed such a des-
perate struggle.
Viga, with twist Of his own knife,

Peggy and Billy and then they ran
and ran through the woods until
they came to a wide road.
