I mopped In to hear him speak to the worhcrn of tho Independence Square Auxiliary of tho American Ilcd Cross on Monday, nud liellcvo mo that Ucrman prop. Rnnda work had been so insidious nml so well planned that ono can scarcely bo surprised that what happened did happen. And doesn't It malto you wild when you think tha,t perhaps that sort of thins Is brine tiled on our men, too? Tho Inslell ous whltpcrhiRs of t-ecrct pcaco neitotla tlnnu, "then why fight each other?" said tho (.uldloi-H across Xo Man's Lund to each other. "Xo. we'll say 'peace.'" JJut when tho attack camo tho disaffected Austrian, who had been used to spread this talk, wcro moved away, nil but the thin frliiRo at the front, nnd when the Italians said "Urother" tho Germans nn. swered "Urother," but ran them through tho heart with bayonets as they answered. There certainly were a Brent many thero to hear Mr. Irwin. .Mrs. Lorlmcr nikcel him to speak to tho workers, and most of tho women on the commltteo of tho aux iliary came, too, and brought friends, so that the great room was very crowded. Next Monday Commander Payne, of tho Naval Home, will speak at tho auxiliary at 3:30 o'clock, nnd Mrs. Charles V.

T"in you Know that It had been abso-- lutely decided by tho auxiliary of tho University Hospital Unit of tho lied Cross that tho members would tako It on them selves to furnish nit tho supplies required by Baso Hospitnl No. 20? I-ist year tho University Auxlllaiy undertook the ie aponslblllty of furnishing beds, supplies and equipment for BOO persons, and already it has given tho unit 125 large eases of surgical dressings, sheets, conva lescent gowns, slippers, socks and other equipment Incidental to hospital service. And it nlso collected moro than $16,000 for tho use of tho baso hospital. In tho auxiliary thero aro 150 members, who h.ivo Ml signed up to continue the work during the war, and meetings ate held every day from 10 until 4 o'clock In ono of tho hos pital buildings. The ofllcers of this auxiliary Include Mrs. 'William "V. Arnctt, president; Mrs. Edward T. Stotesbury, Mrs. John Frede rick Lewis, Mrs. Samucllloueton and Mrs. Gcorgo L.

AV. Dixon, Helen Doughtcn. Mario Doughton, Katharlno Hancock, Harriet Krazlcr, Edith Carpen ter, Doris Dexter and Miss McDovitt. Last Juno n box of gray wool was do nated to tho hospital to be knitted up for tho Navy League, and Mrs. Arnctt formed a committee of girls to teach the patients to knit. That box was used and several moro since then, as it was found that It 'not only gave the patients something to do, but was a teal mental diversion, which seemed beneficial for them. Last October Mrs. Arnett and Mis. Has tings decided that it would bo beat to work entirely for tho Basb Hospital No. 20, and a few days later tho coeds of tho Univer sity held a mass meeting in Houston Hall and volunt'eeicd their services und also offered to help raise tho needful funds. They nnd tuo nurses ana puiieius oi mu hospital put bo much enthusiasm into tho work that COO woolen articles had been turned Into tho unit by tho first of this month nnd moro than $2000 had been raised. Mrs. Hastings has written to a number of graduates to ask aid In raising money to send woolen outfits to tho hos pltal in France for the convalescents there, the need'6f warm clothing for these men being very great. IOI'TEN wonder why they think people don't know it. Why, my dear, he and she are to bo seen almost at any time of afternoon or evening together. And they make a good looking pair, too.

They must bo engaged, you know, but they both separately and individually declaro they are not; "Just good .friends," that's all. Well, tho small bird told mo otherwise; but then tho bird often knows moro than Us prayers.

This commit tee Is planning to enlarge the scope of Its work so that ono of theso kid vests may become a part of every enlisted man's outfit. At present the price Is somewhat abovo the average purso, but with larger quantities of old gloves and greater facilities for work tho committee hopes to lower this considerably. The Glove Waistcoat Society of England, which has been In existence since the begin nlng of the war, has distributed more than thirty thousand of theso, vests. But kid Is now being used In tho munition factories over there, und tho society has been unable to continue Its splendid work. Kid vests last so much longer than tho knitted arlety In actual trench warfare, and afford such a won derful protection from the wind and cold, that It Is hoped we will bo able to supply at least all of our own Pennsylvania meq with this comfort. Almost every ono has a few pairs of old kid gloves, and If they are sent into the Emergency Aid overseas committee, at 1338 Walnut street, they will be used to a very good advantage. Any and all kinds of gloves are needed men's or women's, long or short, black, white or colored and tho gloves may even be badly soiled, as several firms In the city have kindly -volunteered to clean all that come In for this work.
