Kitchen Is No Place

When one must spend consider

rooms of the house. which are
unusually pleasant enough to be in.

Tricks of Youth.
Red Cross

Following the institute which was
held here by the Central division,
March II, 1919. the Omaha chapter
of Red Cross is organizing classes
in elementary hygiene and home
care of the sick.
With the approval of the Central
division the following committee
was appointed by the Omaha chap
ter to carry on this work: Mrs. w.
E. Bolin, chairman; DR.. E: T. Man
ming, Mr.. ]. H. Beverage, Dr..
Vance, Mr.. Gould Dietz, Rev. Titus
Lowe, Mr.. A. B. Mcconnell, Miss
Blanche Fuller, R. NJ; Miss Flor
ence McCabe, R. N, and Miss Char
lotte Townsend. R. N.
Until the Red Cross found the
necessity of teaching public health
to the nation, there was no way of
obtaining this instruction except by
taking a three-year course at some
institution. Now it is in the reach
of all those who will accept it.
This course teaches elementary
nursing; how to check contagion;
how to nurse a member of the FAINT
lily in case of minor illness; how to
care for babies and small children;
how to meet the countless emergen-
cies which arise every day in almost
every activity of life.
The instruction is to be given by
a competent Red Cross nurse at the
very nominal cost of $3.50 for the
course of IS lessons. which also in
cludes the text book, which every
student is required to have both for
instructions and examinations.
At the end of the course all those
who have had at least Il of the IS
lessons are given the examination,
and those who attain a final average
of not less than IS per cent will be
presented with a certificate.
Both day and night classes are
now being organized. for married
woman and for young women above
16 years of age. to be held in the
Red Cross class room, fourth floor
of the WV. c. A.
All those wishing to enter any of
these classes will please register
name, address and telephone num-
Der and which class they wish to
enter at the Omaha chapter, Red
Cross, Douglas county court house,
with Mrs. w. F. Bolin, chairman
of bureau of nursing activities; or
phone TYLER 2721.
May also register at the Y w. c.
A. and you will be assigned to your
respective classes.

Ele amor Hunter
Of w Washington
Is Here
She Represents the Children S
Bureau and VIII Speak
On "Back-to-S School

Miss Eleanor Hunter of Washing
ton, D. c., a representative of the
children's bureau of the Department
of Labor, is in Omaha in the interest
of the -School-Drive," that
is now of primary interest in 43
states of the union.
Among the points advocated by
the bureau that will be stressed in
the Omaha work are more schools,
penny lunches, vocational guidance,
scholarships for working children,
better pay for teachers. continued
classes for working children, efficient
compulsory education and child la
Dor laws.
"If the drive does nothing else
than this, said Miss Hunter" we
hope that it will arouse interest in
these and their enforcement"
Miss Hunter is graduate of
Wellesley college, the Chicago
School of Civics and Philanthropy,
and has had experience in this work
with the vocational guidance bureau
in the Chicago public schools. She
is here under the auspices of the
child welfare committee of the
State Council of Defense.
America has learned that it must
follow England and France" she
explained. When the war condi-
tons offered work there were 3,000,-
900 little children between IA and 10
years, instead of the average 1,000.-
900, who left school for work. The
increase in juvenile delinquency that
followed has caused us to realize the
wisdom of France and England, who
were far-sighted enough to pass
laws protecting their children"
Mrs. Draper Smith, chairman of
the child welfare committee in Onla-
ha. is working for an appropriation
for a child welfare bureau with a
field secretary and a director. who
can Systematically continue the
work that has been curtailed by the
rehabilitation of the State Council
of Defense.
/. Miss Hunter has toured FIVE states
and has spent over a week in Ne
braska. She spoke at $3.50 p. m. at
Jacobs hall Monday and left Omaha

Marriage Without -E,oye.

Dear Miss Fairfax: Some time ago
certain party wanted to know If
1t was wise to marry without love. i
mislaid the paper so cannot quote
Just her words, but will say to her
never do 1t, 1t is not wise. l married
without love, just very high respect
for the man, and the need of home.
and he married from respect and the
need Of a housekeeper, but marriage
is too binding and lasting to marry
without love. With love one is
always glad to find an excuse for any
neglect or fault and with love one
loves the children that come better
and welcomes their little traits that
take after the faher or mother, but
without love-. the respect one has
for the other does not grow by living
together: the faults show up larger
and larger, and when the children
come there Is trouble on account of
extra doctor bill, help and clothes
for the little ones, and by and by
one sees what a mistake 1t is to
marry without love and If the chill
dren seem to have any naughty tricks
it is sure 1t takes it after mother,
she is around the children all the
time. Never marry without love.
