Service League.

Leaders in women's war work
from practically every state will
gather in New York City on
Thursday, October :, fof 4 meeting
of the board of directors, state and

League for Woman's Service. The
meeting has been called for the
purpose of determinging the kind
of volunteer public service with
which the women will supplant
their war activities. Miss Maude
Wetmore, the national chairman.
will preside.
When the league was formed in
January, 1917, a definite plan OF
service, including,a program Of ac-
Invites for women to carry out in
war and peace, was adopted. The
divisions of service included motor
corps, canteen, social and welfare,
general service, wireless, health,
home economics and home and
overseas relief.
This service plan ali during the
war has been the basis of the work
of branches throughout the coun
try and, since the ending of the
war, as one local division of war
service has been brought to an end,
a new activity in accordance with
the original peace program, has
been substituted, Discussion At the
October meeting will center on the
question of making permanent this
service program and its improve
ment to- meet changing conditions.
The board of directors will meet
at II a. m. in executive session Oc-
tober 2. A luncheon to the direct
ors, chairmen and visiting members
will be given at 1880 p. m. At the
Hotel Biltmore and at 5 p. m. the
business meeting with the board OF
directors, chairmen and members
will be held at the headquarters OF
the league, No. Isl Madison avenue.
On Friday morning, October 8, at
headquarters, the board of directors
will hold a business conference.
In preparation for the meeting
and for the purpose of considering
the matter from a national view
point, the league has sent question
naires to all branches requesting
brief report of war work accom-
plished and activities begun since
the signing of the armistice. To
these questionnaires, each chair
man also has been asked to add her
opinion of the most useful volunteer
service women can give in her
community.

A Law Office Too Quiet
for Famous Russian
Baritone.

Before becoming a singer, Georges
Baklanoff, the big Russian baritone,
was a lawyer. Never liking the
duietness of a law office or the argu-
ments to be presented before judge
and jury, he took up singing as
profession. Today he is looked upon
as one of the finest baritones of
the day. He will be heard in the
role of Amonasro id aida" when
presented by the Chicago Opera as
ISOLATION in Omaha this fall.
George Eliot" whose centenary is
to be celebrated this November, was
intellectually the most remarkable
woman in England in the 10Th CEN
fury. Her attainments were almost
universal. She knew all the physical
sciences, all arts and PHILOSOPHERS
and was deeply versed in the history
of thought on the most vital topics.
She had not only thorough COM
mand of chief classical and modern
tongues, but an acceptance also with
Russian and modern Greek.

No Self.Respect.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
What Is your opinion of a young
girl stepping with a married man?
Do you thing it is right for a young
man who is engaged to step out with
other girls?
Is it proper for young lady to
entertain her company after COM
ing home from dance or party-if
1t is very late?
Miss Fairfax, please give US your
advice on this question: In this day
and age you probably know how all
the boys act. Do you think boy
would think more Of girl if she
let him do with her as he pleased,
or If she would be Just q little par
ticular how far he carried things?
The boys all say they think more
Of a girl IL she comes across. Is
there any harm in q boy putting his
arm around girl and kissing her?
Please answer.
EUNICE AND MURIEL.
It does not matter what the boys
think of you, but 1t matters a very
great deal what you think Of your
self. II you respect yourself. 9TH
ers will respect you. But, judging
from you letter, you have no self
respect and would do anything you
thought would make the boys like
you. The fine man, the kind Of man
you would be proud to marry,
doesn't seek the girl without any
character or moral stamina. You
are far too easily reconciled to "how
boys act" in this day and age. Take
care of yourselves as girls and the
boys will take care Of themselves.
Your letter shows SO little character
and sense that I think further ad-
vice would be wasted on YOU

Joking.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are three beautiful young girls,
our ages range from IS to II.
We feel very sad when we think
of the fact that we three beauti-
fully formed girls, are not allowed
by ,xsry strict parents to wear "An-
nette Kellerman" bathing suits or
smoke cigarets, such as other girls
do.
Is it proper for us to go to ques-
tionable dance hall with three young
men we are very much in love
with? We love to dance.
Are georgette, with low necks and
silk stockings, suitable for school?
Hoping to see this in print soon,
we are, THREE BEAUTIES.
My sense of humor sustains me,
and my modest amount of intelli
gence silences me in the fact of
such a forced letter as yours.

Put Fire Out When it Starts.

IuJ souG VHCu 6tuItS
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We always read your column in
The Bee and think your advice is
very good. AS we are undecided as
to whether some things are proper
or not, we are writing to ask your
advice.
: Do you think boy ought to ask
a girl to go some place with him
day or so before, or is it proper to
accept a date if he simply calls for
you without previous request? Is
it proper for respectable girls Ito
have a date with boy If she meets
him on the street, either to go out
riding or otherwise?
Also Is it proper for boy to put
his arm around a girl while out rid
ing even after having been to-
gether several times previous? Is
it any worse for him to kiss her?
Do you not think one thing leads to
another?
Hoping to see your answer in The
Bee soon, we remain,
BLACK AND WITTY.
It is more courteous and certainly
more convenient for young man
to make previous engagements in
stead of subjecting himself to the
embarrassment of calling for
young lady who may be out or en-
tertaining other callers. He doesn't
deserve the pleasure of her society
II he doesn't value it sufficiently to
ask for it in advance.
1t Is far easier to draw the line
on liberties Of your person to young
men at their first appearance than
to let the mans boldness increase
with success and your moral cour-
age decrease with indecision, and
then attempt to check them. The
time to put out fire is when it starts

kinQ John,n Bath.

As to the washing habits of royalty
In former times, there is one thing, at
least, to be remembered to King
Johns credit. His accounts show that
that constantly travelling king nearly
always had a bath at his resting
places during his Journeys.
His water man" could generally
reckon upon getting the bath fee of
nvepence. For to our early king, as
to the modern sojourners In most no.
tells, a bath was officially accounted
as an extra, to be paid for as such.
The royal water man obtained his
special fee every time his majesty de-
manded bath-except upon the three
great church festivals. = London
Chronicle.
