days. During the battle of last Sat
urday, the story says, many foreign
ships anchored in the inlet in the Duna
River were between the fighting lines
and the crews were compelled to work
with great speed in order to escape the
shots which whistled overhead soon
after warnings had been given
Although the Let's had torn up the
pavements in the city and had built
barricades, using railway trains as sup
ports, they were soon put to fight, ac-
cording to the stories of the sailors.
Later in the day five British and French b
destroyers arrived in the harbor and
anchored in the mouth of the river
but took no part in the following en-

TOXIC. Oct Is (By The Associated
Press ).-That Japan cannot at present
give recognition to the Omsk govern
ment was the opinion expressed by
Tsunetada Kato. who has left FOR
Siberia as Japan's diplomatic agent to
that country. Japan would continue to
supply foodstuffs, arms and ammuni-
ton. he said.
The diplomat added: with regard
to the Bolsheviki, we are not neces-
sarily antagonistic to them unless they
are antagonistic to us. An increase OF
our soldiers in Siberia is a necessity
for the protection of the railways. The
Allied powers have not abandoned the
Omsk government. and the support of
that government is continuing"
Nj. Kato and his party will sleep
in train in Siberia and will be

Russian Situation

The situation in Russia is more

- From MY personal experience in

as the Russians have failed to receive
help from the Allies I am convinced
tnat they will turn, or in fact have
already turned to the German govern

Germany, Colonel Groome said, is
commercially and industrially in better
condition a the present time than she
was in July, 1914. He characterized
as Holsenslcdt and ABSURD the state

PARIS, Oct. Is (By The Associated

sustained in the Chamber of Deputies
this afternoon by a vote of 324 to 1872
The Premier thus VIGOROUSLY emerged
from the btterest and best organized
assault which the ministry had ever
faced, the Chamber adopting the Cab

of the elections, placing the legislative
elections first, on November 16, and the
Senatorial and municipal elections in
that order
For the first time Aristide BRAND,
the former Premier, came out openly
in leading the opposition forces, but M.
Clemenceau's majority was the largest
he had ever received when the question
of confidence was presented.

Scandinavian Nations to
AnS,Uer Blockade Note

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 15.-The Scan
dinavian nations are preparing a joint
note in reply to that of the Entente
regarding the declaration Of blockade
against Soviet Russia. The Swedish
newspapers say that the new blockade
declaration is Of no practical i'm
portance to Scandinavia. as there has
been no trading with the Soviet sections
of Russia since the Bolshevik revolu-
ton. The only exception, it is said,
was IN the case of some small vessels
with Swedish hardware which sailed
for Russia, Sweden receiving in eX-
change few cargoes of hemp and flax
BERLIN. Oct Is (By The Associated
Press).-The "Kreuz Zeitung" learns
from "well-informed quarters the gov
ernment in all probability will agree
to join in the blockade Of Soviet Russia
proposed by Entente powers. 1t is
said the government will lay down GER
patton, and will primarily consider Ger
many's foreign political interests when
reaching q decision as to it's final atti-
tude.
Special dispatches from Koenigsberg
report commercial and Industrial
circles there are uneasy because of the
fear that blockade of the Baltic would
prove disastrous to East Prussia. That
section has been dependent upon mari
time traffic for all supplies since the
collapse of railroad service. Only linn
tied quantities of necessaries, such as
foodstuffs, coal and petroleum, can be
taken overland at present.
The blockade. it is said. also would
prove inmical to commercial relations
with border states, where, dispatches
declare, England is aspiring to assume
dominating influence"

Not a Wicked Girl.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I've decided to ask for your advice
/ am a girl, 20 years old, and am a
stenographer and have become a
bad, wicked girl. have worked
for my employer for IA months He
is a married man, 3S years old and
has four children, the eldest girl
Of 70. At first / didn't know he was
married and l was crazy about him
and let him take me to dinner and
shows, but 1 never asked If he was
married, and I liked him so well
that 1 tried every way to get him
to like me. Sometimes he would he
out of town and l would write him
mushy, silly letters Oh, l was a
little fool, know, but couldn't help
it. When 1 found out that he was
married l told him l was going to
get another job, and he wouldn't
let me, and said he would show
those letters to mamma If / quit.
That was eight months ago and
I've stayed. Mamma is a widow
and I am her only support, and my
employer also said he would fix it
so l couldn't get another job. So,
what else could l do, and, besides,
/ can't help liking him, even though
know it is wrong. But feel that
something must be done or some.
thing much worse will happen. I
feel so strange and helpless when
he kisses me. Oh. I'm so afraid. !
don't know what to do. Please,
please tell me what to do and how
to do it. AFRAID.
You poor, little girl. You couldn't
be wicked or bad-you are so hon
est. But let me tell you this-you
are treading on thin ice. Your en-
ployer either has not stopped to
consider your future or else he is
an unprincipled person. Explain
matters to him-say that your fu-
ture is hopeless and that If he loves
you he will help you to get back on
to the right path. There are many
positions in Omaha and you need
not be afraid of idleness. He has
his family; also the pleasure Of your
society-but where, oh, where! does
your happiness figure in such an ar
rangement? Again let me say that
you are not wicked, but being out
rageously misreated, and this man
is taking advantage of your affec-
ton for him. Break loose at once
while you are yet young and at
tractive. Happiness, you will find,
is all outside this mans office.

SOCIETY
We Are Waiting-Fondly
Waiting for Battle
Scared Hero

We await with eagerness the ap-
pearance of Prof. Charles Upson
Clark, who lectures Friday at the
kontenelle under the auspices of
the Fine Arts society We are all
prepared for a battle-scarred hero,
for the list of Prof Clark's achieve
ments quite makes us dizzyl
Kindly take a firm grip on your
nervous system and we will enu-
merate just few of the experiences
OF this noted lecturer. Just last
summer he visited the fighting
zone, making two trips, visiting
Venice, the lower Pave and the
Adamello, where he spent a night
among the glaciers and travelled
over the ice on a dog sled At Pa
Qua he was introduced to an air
raid. But waitl During Septem-
Der, 1918, he was taken on a two
weeks automobile trip through Al
bania and Macedonia, visiting all
the Italian fronts from above Fierie
and Berat, in Albania, to Saloniki.
Prof. Clark was in the last wild
bombardment of the Italian lines
in Macedonia, during which the
Bulgarians shot away the last OF
their ammunition before retreating.
Not only will this distinguished
gentleman tell you of all these mar
velous experiences, but he has
slides and motion pictures which
show the fighting and conditions
along the Pave last June and many
other interesting events OF the
great war. There is no doubt that
large and enthusiastic audience
will greet rof. Clark, for any man
who has survived all this will in
deed be worth hearing.

WHATS in a Name.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
read your column in The Bee and
l do think you answer some of those
love-sick 13-year-olds just right.
And not all are young, either, for
some of the silliest letters written
you have been by people who are
old enough to know better.
Now, l am not bothered with ex-
ceeding popularity nor am too
beautiful. But my problem is this:
am engaged to a splendid young
man, for whom I greatly care. He
has a fine position and is we'll edu-
Gated. But, Miss Fairfax, his sur
name is simply impossible and some-
how I just can't think of going
through life with such an awful
name. No doubt this sounds like a
weak reason to you, but could you
only hear the name you surely
wouldn't disagree with me. Do you
think I should be frank with him
and tell him just why hesitate? Is
it very hard to get a name legally
changed? Do you think if he loves
me as much as he processes to, he
will change his name for me? Or
do you think / had better not men,
ton it, but take him, regardless of
name? But 1t is certainly a horri-
BILE one, and l would hate to have
it If it was unnecessary. l would
very much appreciate your advice
on this subject. Thanking you for
your trouble, I am, LENORE.
If the name is really an impossi-
BILE one the man can have it changed
at the court house. This is done
frequently by foreigners with I'M
pronounceable names. However, the
name doesn't make the person-the
person makes the name. You could
make this one mean a great deal OF
you can make 1t horrid.

Things TO Remember.

Nothing is simpler to make than
suet pudding, and it can be varied
with chopped fruit, nuts or dates.
Lamp chimneys washed with soap
are apt to crack. Steam them and
wipe them clean with a soft cloth.
All root vegetables should be
scrubbed before peeling them, so
that the peeling may be used for
stock.
A boiled custard can have the
milk heated before putting in the
eggs and sugar. However, it must
not boil. ...
Ammonia and warm water poured
on a grease spot on the rug will re-
move the spot without changing the

The Man Who is IL
Years Old

Years Old
There's a man that know, and
he lives near you,
In a town called Everywhere;
You might not think he's a man
from his hat
Or the clothes he may chance
to wear,
But under the jacket with many
patch
Is heart more precious than
gold
The heart of man meath the
coat of boy,
A man who is II years old.
He only is waiting to wear the
crown
That is already made for his
brow;
And I pray that his mind will al
ways be clean,
His body as pure as now;
His heart always fresh and sunny
aAA0 Wallllf
And free from LIES canker
and mold,
And may he be worthy his wait
ing estate,
This man who is II years old.
We never may know what the
future will make
Of the boys that we carelessly
meet;
For many a statesman is doing
the chores,
And presidents play in the
street,
The hand that is busy with play
things now
The reins of power will hold;
So take off my hat and gladly
salute
This man who is II years old.
