D
.(JN'T you love to hear of all the things
tho children aie doing for their own
dear soldiers and bailors? Little Mary,
aged tcn.N lias a big brother In the nlr
service and is mightily Interested In 'every
thing pertaining to the army or navy.
The youngsters were .planning a musicalo
for the benefit of the Department of Navy
Recreation and big sister told it over the
phone.
TKen Mary came Jo the telephone and
this Is what sho said:
,"011, yes, Ethel nnd I are going to have
a play or muslcale. We glvo one every
year, you know, at our houso, nnd it's to
be for the Navy Recreation and tho tickets
are ten cents, and for thirty cents you can
be a pattoness, and that means you can
have a front seat!
"Tho first thing on the program will be
a solo by Tom; he's fourteen and a very
good singer. Then Anne will recite 'Peter
Tan' -and then I do a dance by mjself."
"What kind of a dance?" I asked.
"Oh er a Spanish dance," very tri
umphantly. "And then little Marie Louise,
who is only five, you know, recites 'I huve
a little pony, his name Is Dapple Gray.'
She's rather shy and always pulls up her
socks; but it's very cute.
"Then Ethel, dressed up in a boy's sailor
suit, reads about a comfort kit, and then
we both do a dance together, an-er a
athletic dance. (I think she meant esthetic,
but that is rather hard.) And it ends with
a patriotic tableau that we made up our
selves, called 'Saluting tho Flag.' Ethel
and I "wear Red Cross costumes and nold
tho American flag, and tho other girls are
knitting, and Tom and Joe wear their Boy
Scout uniforms and salute.
"I must go now and sell tickets to some
of Daddy's friends, so good-by but whut
night will it be in the paper?"

SOLDIERS' FAMILIES
TO HAVE VACATIONS
Home Service Department of Red
Cross Appeals for Aid in
Project
A call for holiday week In the country
comes from the Bed Cross, a depart
ment of which is providing recreational pleas
ure for soldiers' families.
Miss A. P. Hutchinson, as chairman of the
committee on vacations for families of sol
diers, plans to send at least 1000 families
to the country for a week or more during
the hottest part of summer.
A romp over green fields, the smell of Inv
alid clover and an occasional tree to climb
are incidentals of a summer outing desired
by the normal youngster
The home service department of the Bed
Cross, In the capacity of second mother to
the soldiers and their dependents, will give
aid In this as well as in the more material
but not less needful details of life.
The Country Week Association has been
generous In the offer to (.are for many famil
ies. Institutions that arc unable to offer
hospitality quite free of cost are taking
women and children nt a small charge, paid
by the Bed Cross The committee, on which
are Miss A P Hutchinson, Miss l Hutchin
son and Mrs T A Hartung, hopes to have
other country places at Its disposal when
the need becomes more generally Know n
"Especially do wo need places to which
to send Catholic women," d( dared Mrs
Hartung "We have had few offers of homes
to which to take well women and children
of the Catholic faith
"In providing for Invalids we have had
better luck. Any one who can offer a vaca
tion outing for Catholic families can notify
me at 1607 Chestnut street."
Beginning next week, the Country Week
Association will give outings to thirty -five
Oentlle and fifteen Jewish children every
week
This morning ten children went to Port
Kennedv, sent by the St Vincent de Paul
Society for a week Bojs and girls, ten In
number, will alternate as guests every week
during the hot months Sellersvllle Holiday
House, connected with Holy Trinity Church,
agrees to take two or three families weekly.
The Jewish Seaside Home for Invalid Women
has been offered to the home service de
partment also as a haven for vacation out
ings of sick women
At moderate cost Mercer Memorial and the
Children's Seaside Home will be used In
this work, as well as Holiday House, which
Is to be open to King's Daughters, threo
families each week, on payment of a nomi
nal sum by the Bed Cross.
Monday morning twenty-five foreign boys,
who are sons of soldiers, will go to Univer
sity Camp, in the Green Hills, thirty miles
away, to stay twelve happy days This is
one of the series of such outings planned
and carried out through efforts of Miss
Hutchinson and her committee. They need
more homes for outings. One thousand fam
ilies must be given recreation before autumn.
