For Home First.

Bruning, Neb., June 20. To the
Editor Of The Bee: If your innabi-
tants of Omaha would advocate to
make it convenient to do your buy
ing in New York city and If we here
in our town of Bruning and trade
territory would advocate trading
away from home, would we then be
entitled to be credited as home boos-
ers and home builders? l say no
Now if we, as citizens, advocate to
trade away from home and advocate
making the trading away from home
easy. are we then entitled to credit
as being upbuilders Of our own
country? While the two named
business theories are of the same ma
ture, I say no" They are both of a
nature to aid the ones away from
home instead of building up your
own home. ]. DU1S.

" going to let Red Beard come
to your ball?" drawled Sleeping
Beauty, opening wide her drowsy
eyes.
Indeed, I'm not I'll ask King
Cole to lend me his fiddlers three"
promptly answered Cinderella, and
forthwith she dispatched a courier
to telephone to King Cole.
In a minute the courier came back
and his long face told that he had
failed in his mission.
King Cole says his fddlers three
have the influenza and Red Beard
has locked 'em up" he reported.
Wham! A cymbal had sailed
through the window and dropped on
the floor To it's handle was tied a
second note, which Cinderella read
aloud:
"Fiddlers three are playing for
me. Bid me to your ball and you can
have them all. Your loving friend,
Red Beard"

clared Cinderella, stamping her foot.
Let him come. My husband will
cut off his head on sight and then we

Sleeping Beauty while her princely
husband drew his glittering sword
and looked very fierce.
That's not my idea of good
time" replied Cinderella. Cant
some of you sing a melody to which
the rest of us can dance? Then we
will not need an orchestra"
But when the guests tried their
voices they quaked and wheezed

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns

next day if you will apply directly
upon the corn a few drops of a drug
called freezone, says Cincinnati
authority.
You merely put drop or two of
this freezone on the tender, touchy
corn today and instantly the corn
stops hurting, then tomorrow some
time you may find the old torturous
pest somewhere in your stocking,
having fallen off entirely without
particle of soreness, pain or irrita-
ton. The skin surrounding and be-
meath the former corn will be as
healthy, pink and smooth as the
palm of your hand.
A quarter ounce of freezone is
sufficient to rid ones feet of every
corn and callus, and any druggist
will charge but few cents for it.

Will the Farm Hold Them2

Can any large number of boys who are
being released from service be induced to go
on the farm, and if they do will the farm hold
them? We note in some of the soldier publica-
tons very pertinent discussion of this subject
with the attractions of outdoor life and the ad-
vantages of acquiring farm with Uncle Sans
help presented in appealing way.
The old difficulties attached to agriculture, 1t
is explained, are being eliminated Millions of
acres of unused land in almost every section
of the country will be placed at the disposal
of the soldier farmer and he will be given every
aid in making the most of the conditions sur
rounding him. Pleasure and amusement will be
brought in reach of the farmer, schools and
other facilities will come his way, so that he
will not feel in the least inferior to his city
friend. The war forced the average American,
and especially the soldier, to take an honest in
ventory of his ideas and ideals and the hope is
expressed that he is able to see life's relations
in clearer light and to realize that the man
behind the pillow will have a reward Just as his
brother who shines in the professional world.
The case could hardly be better put as
plea for farm life, as compared with other oc-
equations and fields of activity. But the prob
lem involves the further factor as to whether
the soldier who goes on farm will bend his
energies to farming and stick it out The dan
ger always turks that with the best of inten-
tons, the help of the government may be &C
cepted and the farm acquired and then when
some setback comes, disposed Of The only
way this can be obviated and of course it
cannot be wholly prevented, is by making life
on the farm and the returns from farming coun-
terbalance what the city has to offer. The ten
dency we believe is to equalize these conditions
more and more, but it will be largely up to the
soldier boys who go on the soil, themselves, to
make farming what it ought to be-

A. s. and other inquirers: In order
to obtain victory buttons, discharged
soldiers in Nebraska and Iowa
should make application to local
Red Cross organizations or to the
U. S. Army Recruiting Station, Army

There are two form blanks, one for
the discharge record, the other being

should be mailed to the recruiting
station above mentioned. At pres
ent they have on hand buttons for

the necessary blanks should secure
them from the Omaha recruiting
station. Pass this word along.
