Incteascs have been made In the mem berships of the various auxiliaries of tho Red Cross during the Christmns drive. Tho Ogontz and Huntingdon Volley lirnnch Had gained 18C6 new members up to last Thurs day, and ulnce, because of tho sevcro weathcrt- tho drlvo was extended' until Rat urday, t'licro Is every reason to suppose they finally attained their goal of 2000 new subscriptions. Sirs. Corblt Loverlng. who was chairman of tho special committee ap pointed to solicit new members, had many willing workers and la certainly greatly to be praised for her splendid work. The surgical dressing clnsi of tho Hunt ingdon Valley did wonderful work In an swering the demand recently made for dressings by December 20:4.92 dtesMngs were provided when only 2600 were asked for. The generous (espouse certainly goes far to prove to the men who have gone what a solid and united support they havo "back homo" from tho cntlro community. During the last two weeks Sirs, Corblt Cov ering's classes In senlng devoted their time to the surgical work, the ltydal auxiliary Joining with Mrs. I.ovcring In this emer gency. One hundred pneumonia jackets were made by tho members of thefo two classes, besides the thousands of dressings. UNDER tho direction of Sirs. I'red Morris, the Wyncote clans did splendid work also. Ilccause of the constantly In creasing demand for surgical dressings the branch has secured new quarters and started In In rooms In StcDnnncll'i 'new building on Old Voik road In .lenkintown the day after Christmas, Beginning early In tho new year there Is to be an arrangement for evening classes at these, with the dates and liourn to be announced later. The olllce of tho Ited Cross will remain In Its present quar ters and tho sewing classes will continue to meet In tho .Tenklutonn Club. Store than $400 was raided In tho lecent dilvc'und $20 was. given by tho caddlo boys of the Huntingdon Valley Club at their Christmas dinner. NANCY TUNIS was married on Saturday to Ross Whlttler, of Roston, and tho wedding took place in town. The Tunis? live In Sledla, you know, and It was pretty hard to get out there In- this kind of weather, so they decided to be married In town at tho Belgravia. Nancy Is the daugh ter of Sir. and Sirs. Tom Tunis, jou know, and a nlcco of Sits. Perot Klsscll, Sirs. Robert N. Wilson and Hob and Stewart Wurts. She camo out here last winter. Her engagement to Lieutenant Whlttler was announced last spring, and It was de cided recently to have the wedding now In stead of later In the winter, as was first Intended. WITH the best of Intentions she started for a missionary meeting, but un fortunately on tho load to this spiritual haven she camo face to face with tempta tion, this time In the fuim of u moving picture theatre, The posters Uldly por trayed allurements to be 'found within and she read tho name of her favoilte actor on the billboard. This Was mote than human nature could bear, and I regiet to hay that as she, to whom certain years should have given discretion, gazed upon tho picture all thought of tho faraway Indian mission aries, who needed winter flannels, vanished. She hesitated, and Us you know the old saw was lost. To defy conscience fur ther and because she was a bit near sighted, ehe trailed down to the very first row, thankful that as tho theatro was not full she need not remove her bonnet. Hut oh, theiwages of sin! She had no sooner seated herself ns comfortably as possible and put on her Indoor glasses than sho no ticed ,a calamity. A hideous black shadow moved fantasti cally across the Mm. .Now It blqtted out the sweet young face of the heiolno and now the "vllllan's" emotions were concealed fr,om view. It even dared to pass on that staining countenance that had led her from the path of duty and righteousness! This was retribution, but she was proud and sat stoically looking on, though the shadow spared neither love ccenea nor plots. Being a Ilttlo deaf,, she heard no one ap proach, but In time became conscious that she was being addressed, and looking up saw en usher gazing at her with wrath in hleye. "Madame, you are causing great annoy ance here this afternoon," said he. S tails was too much and she drew herself up haughtily. "And may I say that I am being greatly annoyed by this shadow? This must be a very poor Mm!" "I think, madame. If you will tool; again you wifl ecq that the shadow Is being caused by tho feather on your bonnet, which wo always expect our patrons to re move," said the sarcastic usher. And then remorse came upon our friend. With belated anxiety for the poor, cold Indian ministers, she got' up and left the theatre, calling herself a sentimental old fool and vowing that never again 'would she yield to temptation when on her way to missionary meetings.
