Editors Pleasantville Press:-
The past several weeks l have been
investigating the labor conditions of
the country, and l find that labor is
about as low as it will ever get, and
this Fall and Winter labor will in
rease and will command more money
than was eve paid. So City Council
should get busy on the Sewerage Sys-
tenn for our City. A little tip for Coun-
Gil to profit by-If we want industries
we must give them sanitary surround
ings and that will never happen until
our City has sewerage. The State
Board of Health and Factory Inspec-
tors will insist on clean, sanitary con
ditions.

No Rest for Women of
World Until Girls of
World Are Safe

About so women workers in the
blue triangle campaign gathered in
the club rooms of the Y. w. c. A.
Wednesday noon at a delightful
luncheon for the discussion of plans
for the campaign. Mrs. Grace Ghol-
son. director general of the blue tri-
angle campaign in the north central
states, gave an address concerning
the need of association work. Mrs.
Gholson said that campaigning was
becoming her favorite sport, and her
reasons, because it brought her so
closely in touch with the personnel
of different cities that she soon
learned who were the generous peo-
pie, who were courteous and who
were kind, as we'll as those of
Numerically opposed natures. The
ringing note of Mrs. Gholson's talk
is summed up in the sentence which
brought the minds of those present
seriously to face their tasks: There
is no rest for the women of the
world until-the girls of the world are
safe. This answered forcefully those
who have sought to escape from the
tasks of reconstruction because they
wished to rest. Mrs. Gholson con-
tinued: "The two most precious
words born in the war were Garry
on and we must make them survive.
IF you have any doubts about the
work that lies ahead of US, consider
these few things that have been taxi
en- up by the national and field
boards: The work in Utah, where
the natives refuse to support our
Christian work; work with the girls
along the border, which Mexico will
not support; a new camp for tuber-
cular girls which is being estab-
lished in Arizona; inaugurating the
work in Hawaii, and among the
movie and legitimate actresses. Men
prominent in the business world are
telling us that if we cannot sustain
our regular work at the altitude it
reached during the war, it will fall
back 10 years, and this is true, Tor inS
answering the call to arms which
came from our government, we adj
vaneed 10 years in the work. And
this immense program which was
begun in those strenuous days must
be maintained/As for the $l5,000,00
which was raised in the United
War Work campaign this fall, that
money was pledged for war work
only, and there is plenty of use left
for it,"
Mrs. G. F. Gilmore, president of
the local association, made few re-
marks and Miss Ada Heaton was in
troduced, the state director for the
campaign.

They Are Hopeless.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We have come for your advice. We
are two young boys at the ages OF is
and 10. We are awful good looking
and also like the girls very much,
but are kind of bashful in keeping
company with them. Could you
tell us how we should act to turn
the girls onto our attention, for we
would like to have good steady girls,
as we think we are growing of age
soon, have also a very good nature.
Do not play cards or go cumming
around at nights like some of our
boy friends do. We know the girls
all like us, but we can never fall in
love with either one of us. Could
you tell us what would be right for
us to do?
Is it proper for young boys to
60 out cumming nights? We think
we don't have any girl friends be-
cause we don't go out at night, but
anyhow, it wouldn't be of no use,
because there aren't no pretty girls
in our neighborhood, not the kind
we would like. Now, Miss Fairfax,
do you think we are right?
Please, Miss Fairfax, give us your
best advice how we could manage to
Sail in love with Some nice young
girls.
That's what we are after nova
days. gwhen the wsr is over "over
there"
And also we two would like you to
tell us whether it is proper to go and
dance with a girl with whom we
have not been acquainted?
Could you also tell us If 1t is
proper to take girl around her
neck while taking her home from
the dance? We don't mind to kiss
her, only to take her around the
neck, just to show them the real
love. Hope to see this in print.
Thanking you in advance.
PRETTY AND MUSTARD.
1t is not proper for young boys,
or old boys either, to go out bum
ming at night. am sorry there are
no pretty girls in your neighborhood
for 1 have none to send you. I have
no recipe for falling in love-sorry
again. Certainly it is not proper to
take a strange girl to a dance. The
last part Of your letter is so ridic-
ulous that shall not bother to an
swer.

Hill Clark, vice chairman, are max
ing a special appeal for children's
clothing. Last year the booth was
especially popular. Long before the
doors were open in the mornings
great crowds of women from the
poorer districts were waiting out
side. No garment seemed too old
or worn for them to want. Mrs.
Clark asks that friends who will
give, call her at Harvey 1863, and
she will gladly stop for bundles.

One more tale has come to me of
young married pair who took the
risk Of starting life with parents-in-
law.
And an unwise risk it proved to
be, in this, as in so many other UNI
happy cases. For it is sad little
story that is told by a sympathetic
friend of the young wife.
Over and over again one Won
ders at the eager, kindly, stupid and
altogether masculine blindness that
leads young bridegroom whose
mother is loath to part with him, to
insist that his bride shall come to
live under the same roof with his
parents.
Here's the Supremacy happy ar
rangement for everybody, he cheer
fully tells himself. A lonely father
cheered up, a slightly jealous mother
paeiied, and bride allowed to begin
married life without responsibility
worth mentioning. How could there
possibly be a more sensible and sat-
isfaetory sort of cooperation
And the bride, of course, keeps
her disappointments and misgiv-
ings to herself. They would hurt
somebody's feelings if she expressed
them. Her wise young husband is
probably right after all. And it
won't matter If for time she can't
have her own things" about her,
and her own friends. II won't mat
ter that she can't have her husband
to herself, and that they can't pursue
the deliciously awkward experiments
of their carly married life without
the constant presence of critical
iookers-on. Or rather il will matter.

Heart Beats
RxA.K.

BY A. X.
The Union station was crowd
ed with
Soldier boys
On their way home
From wicked war
And there, was one
Big husky, brave
Fellow who had withstood
Shock of shells and
Muddy trenches
But while he saw
His comrads lying
Dead around his feet
He thanked his God for
Many things
His health his luck
His courage and above all for
The greatest blessing
Which kept him strong
And hopeful
And determined-his wife.
His thoughts fitted back
Every little while
To the bride of four
Months across the ocean
And the trip home
Was worse than battle for
He counted the minutes
Between him and his bride
And finally he reached
The Union station
With a hundred Others
And he was PACED,
When the boy
Located him there was
A telegram addressed to the
Brave fighter and young
Husband.
He read the message and
Read it again and then handed
1t to a Red Cross canteen
Worker who helps make the
Returning boys comfortable
And he asked.
Does that say 'deadP" and
The Canteen worker had to tell
Him that his young wife had
Just died Of influenza.
The man turned pale and reeled
And tumbled in heap and
The canteen workers put him on
A hospital bed in the station
And tried to comfort him
This man who had fought
Fearlessly and bravely while
He thought there was someone
At home to welcome his return
Succumbed completely to
A little word that means more
Than a cannon ball or
Bayonet
To. man who loves
She was DEADi

together about the multitude of new
problems that they've undertaken,
and that it's such happiness TO tackle,
blunderingly, hand in hand.
They have really to get acquaint-
ed with each other. They have to
study each others temperaments
and habits. And they can't manage
it with lookers-on.
IF you're a mother with a mar
riageable son, make up your mind,
when he finds that perfect girl he's
looking for, to let him go away
from you. You can't share him be-
tween you. II won't work. Don't
be a short-range mother-in-law.
They're responsible for vast
amount of unnecessary unhappiness.
Mothers-in-law who keep at tact
full distance are the ones who have
the reward of being loved.
Let the bride and bridegroom in
your family draw about themselves
magic circle. And in the interests
Of love, OF harmony, Of successful
marriage, see that you remain OUT
side.
