NANCY WYNNE CHATS ABOUT
THINGS WHICH INTEREST MANY
i.
Several Affairs Given at the
eenent or oomiers umcers 01 tne isavy iara
Hold Dance on Ship
BOTH Atlantic City and Spring Lake
will bo very gay this evening, for
, ivfo large affairs are to be given at these
v popular resorts. At the former a dnnco
i - Avlll bo given under the auspices of the
Boldlers' Aid Commltteo and for tho
benefit of that association. Most of -the
cottagers and guests at the various ho
tels are greatly Interested In the ball and
A number of dlnneia will bo given beforo
tho dancing starts. Mr. Agnow Dice,
president of tho Reading Hallway, and his
Wife- wjll bo host at a largo supper at the
Bhelburno after tho affair.'
Tho evont scheduled for Spring LnJto Is
a Colonial ball: this la given by1 tho man
agement of tho Sussex and Essex Hotel
and tho guosta will wear Colonial cos -
1 tumes, eo It la well assured that, as a
spectacular affair atone, It will be a suc
cess. But hero at home, oven If It Is July and
lato In tho month at that, tho rqmalnlng
officers at Loaguo Island havo plannod to
glvo a danco tonight on board tho Con
necticut, and1 many of tho stay-at-homes
aro looking forward to this evening with
great pleasure. After quite a lull In tho
dancing craze, with tho exception, of
course, of tho roof gardens, every ono
seems leady to tako It up again with ro
nowed vigor and pleasure.
Another pastlmo for those who stay at
homo or near tho city la tho swimming
craze, which "oycle" seems to havo
struck young and old all at once, and
Ashor's, Adam's, the Armory and numer
ous other pools aro dally filled with human
fish, who, adorned "a la Annetto Keller
man,'' disport thomsolves gaily In tho
limpid waters. Such sounds ao "Ono,
two, thuroeel" In stentorian tones, may be
heard all through tho day, as ono passos
by, and ono woman toacher insists on
yelling to her pupils, "Lay still." Perhaps
sho does not approve of lying, Uko Georgo
W. 6f old. I think tho expressions on tho
faces of tho3o who aro Just learning to
swlm-or float Is a perfect sercarm They
either puff out their chcoks or hold their
vmouths wido open, as if by swallowing
quarts of water they might learn. This
Is a tlmo when avoirdupois Is a blessing,
for the weighty, strange to say, float
lightly on tho wator's top, whllo their
skinny sisters havo to mako violent efforts
to keop up. t
Tho latest nows from our troops at tho
border Is not as happy as It might bo; It
appears they havo neither onough clothes
nor drinking water, and after all ono
can do with very littlo clothos, whereas
water Is a real necessity. Ono enterpris
ing mother of a border boy was heard to
say sho thought sho would forward some
crates of bottled water, but that does not
seem oactly practical, as by the tlmo tho
water reaches El Paso tho men may havo
moved on. Speaking of poreona doing
with few clothes, I read-a very funny
story In a current paper this week about
a Methodist minister, who asserted from
his pulpit, apropos of tho short skirts and
open necks, "Evo, It Is true, did not rea
lize that sho was not aressea unui ono
ato the apple, and I rather wish that
some of tho young women In my con
gregation would eat an applo."

Maimed Men, Smiling Bravely, Cheered by Throngs at

It'rttfeti Bpeoiall for
LONDON. July 7.
-Wo stood by thou
sands In Charing Cross Station waiting the
arrival of the wounded from tho great of
fensive Tho crowds were wildly enthu
siastic. "Keep behind the barriers'." called a big
policeman. "They won't be long now!"
An hour slipped by another hour and
the multitude by the barricade grew rest
less. "We'll give them n truly British wel
come when they do arrive." cried a gray
haired man. And at his words a London
"bobby" uwung tho big gates open and a
mighty cheer rent tho air.
A Red Cross wagon, moving slowly, head
ed the long procession. Sight of the three
still figures on the forcmoBt stretchers made
the shouts die on the lips of the specta
tors. Thoy uere wrapped In blankets nnd
muffled almost to the eyes
Heads ivero uncovered as they passed
before us nnd a great silence fell on the
crowd It was broken by the quiet sobbing
of a woman.
Then a little London flowcrseller ran
forward and placed a rose upon each
stretcher Ono of tho muMled figures lifted
a wealc hand and touched the flower. The
crowd broke Into cheers again.
Immediately behind came an open car
riage In which sat four'smlling "Tommies."
Each had an empty Blceve and there was
almost more bandage about them than uni
form. But, "are we downhearted 7 Never!"
they shouted and the crowd hurrayed with
Joy.
Roses In profusion were flung Jnto the
carriages. The soldiers stuck them at
ridiculous angles into their helmets, behind
their ears and ery often among the
bandages. I have seldom seen such smil
ing bravery as those boys showed.
"HI, where's my Llzzle7" called out an
elderly man who was lying In a motorcar
wlh his knees strapped out on a temporary
sireicner.
"Here, John, here I" cried nn excited voice
from tho crowd, and "Lizzie" darted for
ward. She was a large, stout woman in a
"bugled" bonnet, but In a trice she had
whisked the door of that slowly moving
automobile open and was beside her John,
covering his unstunen face with kisses.
"Three cheers for Lizzie !" cried the
crowd. And Lizzie graciously waved her
hand ns though she and her wounded hus
band wero royalty in state procession.
Motor after motor and carriage after
carriage went slowly past. Part ot tho
toll of the great offensive was before us
now. But though they were pale and weary
from their cross-Channel Journey, a great
optimism shone on the faces ot those
wounded men. "Wo captured the first-line
German trenches all along our line!" called
out the boy, "We've taken hundreds and
hundreds ot prisoners!" called another.
I slipped through the crowds and past
the long line of motorcars nto the rear of
the station, where the wounded were being
helped or carried into ichlclea. Three men.
who had been bayoneted, were sitting in
Invalid chairs.
"I'd go back again tomorrow, if I could,"
said one ot them, "but I got mine on Sun
day at Mametzl We'd shelled the German
dugouts until they were piled up with dead.
And then we made a little charge. Cheer
ful we were, and singing, though you
couldn't hear a note for the thunder of the
guns I"
"Don't you believe them rumors about the
Germans not putting up a hand-to-hand
fight 1 Look at that blessed leg of mine.
Ran me three times through, they did! But
David here finished that little lot oft," and
he indicated the man beside him, who was
too wan and 'weary to speak, but who smiled
faintly at his friend's words.
"The Red Cross chaps found me lying
Under a heap ot dead," continued the firsts
"some were British and some were Oerman
It's a hard matter to pick out the wounded
from the dead, but I managed to get an
arm loose and signaled to the bearers,"
A pale-faced boy, who was lying on a
stretcher close beside a wagon, told me his
leg had been blown oft at La Bolselle, and
he had lain out on the battlefield for 30
hours "We're doing great things out there,"
he said proudly, 'though It'll take lears to
clean up those1 awful fields 1 The dead are
heaped up everywhere "
"I got mine at the end of the charge," said
a Gay Gordon with a bandaged knee and an
empty sleeve, "but the German losses were
terrific,"
A voice with a strong Lancashire accent
sounded near me ''Our battalion was
formed almost entirely from clerks, but
they wielded the bayonet better than the
pen," it oald. "We drove the enemy back
from a point far ahead of our lines at
Montauboo."
"I don't mind the big sheila so much as
the grenades and the bombs." remarked a
Scottish Borderer "I got a piece of bomb
In the cheat four dys ago. It 11 be a close
companion for some weoJus, I'm afraid "
Said e. slightly wounded soldier: "Our
company captured crowd of Gorman of
