It docs soem marvelous that thero nro Hill ' in theso United Htntcs pertoni who havo not yet Joined tho lied Cioss; und yet thero are, and so many that It Is almost unbeliev able. I've been thinking It over nnd won dering why, und rotnctliltiR 1 heard ald opened nn uvenuo ot thought na to why It vvntf. This person was under tho Impression that to Join tho association meant jou had ' to work for it, nnd no nho Is u cry busy woman nnd qulto unablo to rive; any tlmo to making surgical drctslnga and liandngeM und so forth, sho thought film ought not to Join, fortunately, tho perton to whom sho spoko knew ull ubout It and set her straight, and tho lied Cross had gained another member. IWONDKtt If wo women think nf what wo may ull ho doing by next Christmas? You know It'tt :i tlmu when ono must think about theso things. I heard Captain La tham spcuk recently ut ono of the numer ous meetings ono Is iilwiivH going to theso days. Ho wan telling about tho women of England. Well, of course, conditions her aro not yet aa they uro In England; and In fact, as Captain Latham said, tho United States would havo had to rulbo an rirmy of 17,000,000 men beforo things hero would bo on tho samj piano us In England and plcaso God they won't havo to and then ho told us about tho women In his family. Ho was M simple about It, taking It aa a matter of courtc. and yet his heart must ache pretty hard whin ho thlnka of them. Tor they wero women who had neer had to do nny kind of dlfllcult or hard work and who had novcr had to bo on '.lino for anything unless they specially wanted to bo. Captain Latham said thero. wero two men In his family, himself nnd hla brother, and tho brother H In tho trciiohca now; und thero aro llvn women his mother, who Is a matron of u hoc pltiil; hl,wiro and Ida brother's wife, who hold positloua In banks; hla tister, who la in a munition factory, and hla llttlo sister of seventfen, who lu driving u, taMcib ubout London. And that la not ull. UN wlfn haa n llttlo baby ot ten months, and sho haa to tako raro of It as well aa attend to her work in the bank. Thero uro no nurtis to bo had for lovo or money ovir there. Tjilnk of It! And better still, think of tho ulrong spirit back of those frail nnd eitll rato women; tho spirit that makes them strong to bear und do In tho placo of tho men who havo had to go to tho front. And let us preparo ourselves In Mlrlt for what may como, that wc, too, will show tho samo spirit of Bjerltlco for tho lovo of God and country If wo aro called upon to do like wise. With tho llut&lan truco and tha freeing of hundreds of thousands of Teuton prisoners who will surely bo brought In lime to tho western front It's not a very tunny outlook, U UT YOUNG Lieutenant F.obert AValter Starr, Jr., who is tho son of Dr. and Mrs. 11. Walter Starr, of this city, la "over thero" working in ono of tho bdsu hospitals. Ho writes that tho work Is simply wonderful, but eight houra a duy do not seem ade quate when thero nro so many to be at. tended to. And it's simply pathetic to sea how grateful tho men aro for tho profes sional attention given them. Lieutenant Sturr graduated from tho Do Lanccy School in 1910 and from thero went to tho Mcdico-Chl Collego ot Dental Sur gery. After receiving lili diploma he waa Instructor thero and at tho l'hlladolphla Dental College. He received hla commis sion in June. Dcsplto tho cold und rainy weather und heavy fogs. Lieutenant Starr says In u let ter to his parents, "our men aro doing noblo work and uro cagor for ro-enforcc-ments from home. Too much cannot ba 'aid of tho wonderful work tho Y. M. C. A. is doing for thom." And later: "Tho food in good, chicken every third -Sunday and 'the promlso of turkey and trimmings for Thanksgiving and Christmas." So It goes, and tho letter arrives hero after tho Thanksgiving which ho is so t pleasantly anticipating. They say thero is wonderful work belnjj done by tho dental surgeons over there, but I imaglno thero Is less of it than tho other urgical things; so that is probably why ho speaks ot eight hours, for most of tho doctors havo not mentioned any set tlmo for work; DID you know that tho Hob Cuys havo a dear llttlo daughter? Sho was born a week ugo and will bo named Mary Froth Ingham, after Elizabeth's mother. Mrs. Clay, you remember, was Elizabeth Hob erts, a twin sister of Dorothy Roberts, who is now Mrs. Logan Bullitt, Jr. Bob Clay received his commission as captain at Ni agara and Ik now stationed at Fort Sill, in Oklahoma, so ho has not seen tho llttlo new "daughter yet. They havo ono other child. 'a, llttlo boy ot two years. I . - N'AXCY WTKNU.
