Emergency Aid Benefit November 13
YOU seo, tlie Red Cross wants to. make
sure that no soldier shall co without
. Christmas packet, either abroad or at
home, and so the Southeastern Pennsyl
vania Chapter has asked each auxiliary
to contribute a number of packages In a
T.ry short time to bo sent to our boys
Z0ver thero" and here. All this takes
considerable money, and so ways and
means havo been considered by the vari
ous branches, and the Independence
square Auxiliary No. 27G of the Red
Cross has asked the Overseas Committee
of the Emergency Aid to Join hands with
it to raise fupds for Christmas pack
ets, and they arc going to do It. Mrs.
George Horaco Lorlmor Is chairman of
the Independence Squaro Auxiliary and
Mrs. Samuel Dell, Jr., chairman of tho
Overseas.
They havo asked Miss Kathleene Burke
to come on November 13 to tho Academy
of Music to speak, and she has said that
.ho would give a talk which she had
only B'ven once before, and that was In
tfew York, wheif the amount raised In
consequence was $800,000. Any of us who
have heard Miss Burke know how per
fectly fascinating she Is, and there Is lit
tle doubt that the old Academy will be
well filled to hear this earnest little
woman speak.
Think of the soldiers who will be made
happy by delightful little packets of
cigarettes, tobacco, pipes, chocolate, chew
ing gum, cards, puzzles, fruit cako, pre
served ginger, neckties, mouth cgans,
electric torches; In fact, you can't lmaglno
all the things the Red Cross has thought
of and the response it has had from Its
various chapters throughout the Union.
The Independence Squaro branch alone
Is giving one thousand packages. It's
simply wonderful.
IltATHEH think tho Jumblo Salo which
the members of the Junior League arc
getting up will bo quite some little sale,
and you never saw anything like tho way
those girls are chasing around collecting
rummage of all varieties, which they ex
pect to sell from November 27 to Decem
ber 2 Inclusive. The proceeds for the
entire sale will be donated to the Red
Cross, and the many aides will be com
posed of tho members of the Junior
League.
A postal card to any of the committee
will Insure prompt attention, a motorcar
being sent for any discarded articles of
clothing, bric-a-brac, books, pictures, fur
niture. Jewelry or music that may bo
contributed.
So universal has become the Interest
tn this enterprise that, aside from thj
two hundred members of tho Junior
League, many others have offered their
services for the occasion. An unusually
fine collection of slightly worn clothing
for women Is already on hand for
display. These will be sold by Mrs.
George Eustls Payne, Jr., who was Helen
Ellis, and Helen Tower. Wonderful bar
gains In men's clothing will be dispensed
by Mrs. C. Fenno Hoffman Marie "Wright
that was nnd Mrs. Rowland Evans, Jr.
In other words Bessie Downs.
Discarded books will be gratefuKy re
ceived by Nancy Reath, who will havo
charge of this branch of the sale, as
sisted by a number of the aides.
i
'A restaurant will ulso be a feature of
the occasion, when a number of young
girls will servo luncheons each day. This
department Is under tho direction of Mary
Nswbold, to whom contributions of cakes,
cookies and other edibles may be sent.
Flowers will be sold by Emily Fox.
Prominent among tho other members
Who are now hard at work to make the
occasion a success are Miss Constance
Blddle. Mrs. William J. Clothier, Mrs. Or
vllle Bullitt. Eugenia Cassatt, Molly
Thayer, Marlon Taylor, Charlotte Rush,
, Patty Borle, Katharine Chambers. Mrs.
Robert P. Mel?s, Miss Marlon Savago nd
Mrs. Edward Dale Toland, Jr.
TTE was Just eighteen and the business
'of having a slsttr-In-lnw was entirely
new to him. He had brothers, na tin ally,
since she was his sister-in-law, but no

of Barbara and used to have very
brotherly rough houses with her occasion

there was one point of etiquette that
rather puzzled him. He said nothing to

seemed to dwell In his mind, and ho pon
dered over It in thoughtful silence for
several blocks.. Finally, unable to stand
it any longer, he blurted out, "Say, Bill,
ought I to kiss Babs?" Bill didn't know
ny better than he did, and I don't know
now ho ever started, but the last time I ,
