In t,ho meantime, this twenty- ear-old
girl, the first woman naval otllcer in the
worl.1 so far as Is known, did her l.est to
!oo! patriotic today, awaiting the arrival
of 1 ir unlfoiin, In a costume that was white
of blouse, blue of sklit and led of tie.
No blushing bride ever wrote "Mrs" be
foie lie- name for the first time with
greater pride than Miss Walsh suffixes the
alphjbettc.il arruy which, since yesterday
afternoon, when she became :t member of
the yeomen service, she lias been entitled
to tack onto her name. It stands for chief
petty nftlcer. l'lilted .States Naval Iteserve
Force, and given tho same qualifications of
Miss Walsh that is to say, perfect health
and a competent knowledge of s-tenogiaphy
or bookkeeping It Is a sufllx that you o.- I.
by the mere signing of a paper and swear
lng tho trutli about our age can acquire.
"I'm so excited about It all." Miss Walsh
put back some stray dark brown lcn.k
locks which soon are to be confined under
a neat officers' cap clasped her hands
ecstatically and while n couple of adoring
"jackles" looked on spellbound told how it
came about that the signal honor of being
the first woman In the navy service came
to her
"Vou see I've been coiiespoudlng secre
tary of tho Woman's Branch of the Navy
League at Philadelphia." she said, "and I've
handled a good deal of Lieutenant Payne's
correrpondenctv Ilelng amid this atmos
pheie has just sort of Imbued me with the
sense of patriotism. I really tried to vol
unteer before Secretary Daniels's order ad
mitting women wus received, nut Lieutenant
Payne, did not swear mo In until yestciday
afternoon. Before 1 was swoin, however.

Wand found mo perfectly healthy and so t'ae
in) stcai qualifications vveie met with.
"I am to have charge of the recruiting
here," she continued in sparkllngly happy
fashion, "but, of course. Iheie are plenty of
other shore Jobs open to the other women
whom we expect o enlist There are In
numerible clerical jobs held now by men,
and there are Jobs In the supply stores
which women could fill! .There will be
plenty for us to do on land I am sure we
won't get the opportunity to go to sea "
this regretfully "In fact, I've already dis
covered that there's a law forbidding women
on the I'nlted Statgs navy boats that are
under way.
"Cut, say. the lespouslblllty of tills uni
form business!" she grinned Impishly "You
see, being Ihe first I've been consulted about
It, and, of courfce, 1 don't want to be catty
and get something that's just becoming to
me, I've got to think of all the women who
are coming after, nut I don't want It to be
anbecor.itng to me either."
If tho. uniform Is developed as Miss Walsh
has gfnerously conceived It, it should set

placed over crossed quills the insignia
of he clerical work will be placed on the
arm. The upstanding collar will Insure
an aggressive "chln-out" posture that the
tejnlnlne recruits might otherwise lack.
"Think of the cutlass and the automatic,"
Miss Walsh jubilated. "I don't know what
I'm to do with theuii whether I'm to In
timidate laggard applicants, or to use them
for more pacific purposes, but H'b mighty
cool euort having 'em anyway,"
At this point- In the conversation Miss

MAYOR NOT TO ASK WAR
FUNDS AT PRESENT
The city administration eonteniplates no
h'g war fund at this time, and until the
necessity arises .Mayor Smith will not abk
cither Councils or member:) of the Finance
Committee to oilginate legislation of an
emergency character.
When asked lelatlve lo a repoit that
$100,000 would be asked of Councils at the
next meeting and that members of the
Finance Committee would today he as,ked to
back such legislation, the Mayor said:
"I have no Idea of asking Councils or the
Finance Committee for any war fund of
J100.UOO or any such sum at this time. Theie
Is no need for any hurry along that Hue. j
iiiiauciiinia muajs nas anu always will
do her full duty both as to money and men I .
1 ne small expense incident to the activities
of the home defense committee can be met '

Councils can be asked for small appropria
tions. When money is needed for war ex
penses It will be found, but there certainly
Is no reason to rush Into Councils now anil
ask for funds. This certainly will not be
done for some weeks to come,"
Councils, If no change In present plans Is
made, will merely approve the appropria
tion of $7500 needed to pay b!'i Incurred
b.v the committee appointed to eniertaln re
turning troops from tlie bolder and to care
for their families while they wete In serv
ice. It Is understood that the city will meet
bills' Incurred by the Mayor and his com
mittee during the present emergency and
that later. If necessary. large appropriations
will be made for general war purposes.
During the Civil War Philadelphia ex
pended $20,000,000. Of this sum $13.000..
000 was spent for hospitals, restaurants,
barracks, hospital trains and other pur
poses; $10,000,000 was for the defense of
the city, to stimulate lecrultlng and to psv
bounties, and $3,000,000 for the relief o'f
veterans.
Councils' Finance Committee today ap
proved salary Increases for city employes

PHILADELPHIA RAIDED
BY INVISIBLE AIRMEN
Robert Glendinning Drops Bomb
on Chestnut Street to Show
Vulnerability
An nii- raider swooped over Philadelphia
shortly after .1 o'clock this afternoon and
dropped a mlntatine bomb In the heart of
the business district. The flyer released the
bomb to demonstrate the deadly accuracy
with which n flyer could slip over the city
and destroy Its business district
The mimic daylight laid was conducted
b.v Robert (llendlutilng. the banker-aviator,
and W. K. Johnson, chief Instructor of the
Philadelphia Aviation SchoM at Esslngton,
which will he ronverted In! a, (lovernnient
flying base within the next few days.
The bomb, which descended with un
erring accuracy, fell on the covering of a
laige tending car nn Chestnut street. Just
below Juniper. In the car at the time weie
Kugcne Howell, of filfi Upsal street, Het-nmntov.-n,
and his chauffeur, James Con
nelly ,
With a clash the bomb landed and fright
ened both of the men In the machine, who
believed that a collision had occurred. They
leaped from the car. and a mounted police
man dashed to the scene.
On the gtouud lay the missile, which had
lebounded from I be cover of the machine.
" wa a l11 ''loth bag to which was at
Inched a smaller bag containing small lead
shot Attached to the bomb was a piece of
blue-coated cloth hearing an Inscription to
the effect that the finder should notify Mr.
(I'teridlnning, 400 Chestnut stieet, at what
point the cloth bag luuded.
Of the thousands of peisons that crowded
Chestnut street and gatheied around the
automobile, not one could be found who
saw the flying machine a. It passed over
"e business district. The aviatois cauied
but one bomb with them on the trial laid.
Ihe hag contained a number of cauls
on which were pi luted a line uskliiR tl(e
people what they would have done If It

to the bag. but It evidently bin lied on' ill
