It was delightful to be on such good terms with 'ny pupils, but Just because of that I was all the more determined to live up to the high opinion which, for some reason which I was unable to fathom, they seemed to have of me, and thanks to all that studying, whatever may have been the result for others, I myself learned more that term from textbooks than ever be fore or since In the same space of time. Mathematically, as otherwise, I had lived from hand to mouth and at the beginning of school in Hllliston I was In terror of being called on at a mo ment's notice to explain something I had never known ; but by dint of work ing overtime and refusing the Invita tions of Tom Loren to go out coasting moonlight nights, I did manage to keep un with him and almost everybody else.

Anxious to do their best for the Allied cause, these young women overcame the traditional Chinese oppo sition to women leaving home and came to America to become trained nurses. "Every one, the British bb well as the American doctors nnd merchants and business men of all countries," said Dorothy Francis, "told me that the American trained nurse was the most efficient of her profession ; that the hospitals, the training schools, the op portunities for experience for trained nurses, as found in America, were equaled In no other country." Miss Francis has Just completed the three-year course In nurses' training at Bellevue Hospital, New York, and, after a trip to Trinidad to visit her mother, will enroll with the Bed Cross nursing service. Her younger sister has two years of training still ahead of her, but 'says if the war lasts that long she, too, will enter upon Red Cross work.

I think you treated him very ehabblly if he said he had not said the unkind thing of which you accused him. You could write him a little note now saying that you feel you have been very unjust and you hope he will fpr glve you. But do not ask him to call. Let any advance come from him. Any other way of doing would be forward and bold. If he Is big enough to forgive the affront and wants to be friends let him call on you and be very cordial when he cornea And dear, take this little lesson. Do not listen to mean things which are re peated to you bv other girls and boys. Discourage It the m'nute they 'start.

"Our plan for raising funds has met with very good results." First Steps Like a desert vast and cheerless Stretch the nursery lands. Who could gaze with vision fearless O'er those trackless sands? Though there waits a shelter peer, less Mother's reaching hands. Eyes alight with exultation. Lips that shape a shout; Just a flutt'rlng hesitation, Just a sigh of doubt. Dare and launch a generation Sturdy legs step out. BURGES JOHNSON TTtOR the moment foulard Is having everything Its own way. There are a few of us who do not cherish, way down In our memory, the recollection of springs that wouldn't have seemed quite right without a foulard grown, and the. very first opportunity to bring back this foulard frock we have grasped with eager hands. At least one foulard gown Is In the wardrobe or will be of nine out of ten women this summer. And there Is much to rriake the welcome to foulard so enthusiastic. It Is exceedingly good to look upon, wears well at least It did at Its earlier Incarnation and comes In a large assortment ' designs and colorings. At the word foulard the mind naturally sees a vision of blue and white, which Is the case of the Illustration today, and It Is what most women call the polka dotted fculard, a design that somehow never really seems to go out of fashion. However, this season the splashy sort of designs in foulard are considered very much smarter, but that Is not, aa you understand, saying that the "dot la passe." I really believe that one of the chief reasons why wtmen have always adored foulard Is because this material demands little or no trimming. This frock today Indorses this argument, as It Is virtually unadorned with the exceptions of the vest and cuffs, which are hemstitched white georgette crepe. There Is a straight and narrow foun dation skirt, over which hanga a rather full tunic that falli very unevenly. The sleeves are long and Inclined to 'snug ness. Of course, there Is a girdle, There seems to be no frock these days that Is ungirdledi This girdle Is of the foulard and alma to give a lowered effect to the waist line.
