Is the oldest of the famous Poe men, who
are brothers of Mrs. S. Naudaln Duer, of
this city. Everybody loves Mrs. Duer and
so everybody Is Interested In the doings
of her wonderful brothers, wrio are so
well known on account of. their football
prowess at Princeton.
And that reminds me of one time when
Johnny Poe, the one who was killed some
time ago "over there," went back to col
lege for a class reunion a certain small
hero worshiper, who had a Princeton
scrapbook In which the Poes and Hobey
Baker and all the other Princeton stars
occupied many pages, was taVen up there
by his older brother, also a Princeton
manv And to the almost bursting of that
young Joyful heart, some kind friend In
troduced him to the great Johnny Poe.
And the youngster didn't comb his hair
or wash his right hattd for almost a
month, because his hand had been clasped
and his head patted by the hero. And he
may well treasure that memory now. for
his hero was a real hero on the battlefield
as well as that long-ago gridiron.

Clothing of Soldier and Sallorto Be Mended
by Volunteers
The Emergency Aid opened a department
In Griffith Hall, Crozer Building, 1420 Chest
nut street, this morning where worn uniforms,
socks and other garments used' by the soil
dlers and tailors of this .city will be mended
and patched and put into condition for wear
Ing by volunteers under a trained super'
Intendent.
The Idea is to give relatives of the men
In the army or navy an opportunity to help
by doing .some pf the little homely things
they have always done for their husbands
and sons.
Officers of the Emergency Aid believe that,
because It offers every woman with a male
member ofgher family In the service an op
portunity t6 serve In' the cause,, this work
will especially appeal to them. No volunteers
will be asked, to give their entire time to
It, but whatever time they, can spare from
their other duties, if that is only a few

mm FOR NURSES
OPENS FAVORABLY
Long Lists of Student Applicants
at Big Hos
pitals Heavy waiting lists of applicants for
places In the big hospitals here, as for ex
ample the University, Pennsylvania and Jef
ferson, Indicate that the drive beginning to
day, for recruits for the student nurses' re
serve will ho successful.
The recruiting stations, which are scat
tered In all parts of the city, are asked to
raise a quota of 400 students In Philadelphia,
although It Is hoped this quota, will be ex
ceeded. Twenty-five thousand girls are de
manded from the whole country, 2870 of
whom are to come from Pennsylvania.
The order came from Washington signed
ny Surgeon General Oorgas, Surgeon General
Rupert Drew. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw and
Dr. Franklin Martin, Mrs. HenrV D. Jump,
of the woman's committee of the Council
for National Defense, Is In charge of the
recruiting here.
.... Keen to Oo Ahmad
There Is a keen desire among the graduate
nurses to go to France, where they feel thev
should be nnd where tlere Is a great need
for them. Young women whose names have
been crowding the waiting lists at the hos
pitals win hae a chance to hasten their
training In some cases by two years
Only the highly trained women are per
mitted to go across for work among the
w-ounded. since the terrible nature of manv
of the wounds and the great dellcacv and
boldness of the surgical work In those hos
pitals requires that the nurses should have
full confidence In themse!es and be trained
In tne routine of heavy responsibility.
Graduate nurses from the big hospitals
here will probably be sent across In large
numbers, wh'le the army Is being sent: for It
Is said -that 15.000 nurses to every million
men is the Very least (hat are needed
These places will be filled from the large
waiting lists, and the student reserve will
train the 2B.00O. or more for work -In settle
ments and In the different war hospitals
The age limits are nineteen nnd thlrtv.-five,
the earliest age at which a girl could seri
ously begin training was twenty-one.
Appeal bv Oorge
In connection with th rininiim c, ,..
General Gorgas has addressed the following"
ouiieiiirni 10 me young women of the United
States:
"I want every oung woman In the coun
try. eery woman between nineteen and
thlrty-fle. to read carefully what I have to
say and to give It earnest attention It Is
a message which every girl oughe to wel
come, because It tells of an opportunity to
help the nation.
"The army and the country face a short
age of nurses. The army alone will require
something like 25,000 nures by the first of
next January We hae secured about 13,000
of this number; we need 12,000 more. We
hae got to have them or the army w'lll run
short and this .would be an outcome Incred
ible and Intolerable to the American people
"Only graduate nurses who have been
through the full course of training are avail
able for this high service. These nurses
have to be taken out of the hospitals and
trom care of sick at .-home. This means
that when we recruit our full quota for the
army their places In the civil communities
must be filled. Hence this call for student
nurses to fill the acancles, prepare for pro
fessional service, and meanwhile to make It
possible for our hospitals, both civil and
military, to carry ci, nnd for the American
people to hold the health standards of the
country as high as they have .ever been held
In times of peace.
"If I were a young woman and wanted to,
do my country the greatest service Ip my
power. 1 should go at once to the nearest re
cruiting station of the woman's committee of
the 'council of national defense and enroll
In the Unltod States student nurse reserve.
This enrollment would at once make me a
candidate for the army nursing t-chool or for
one of the civilian training schools for
nurses. I cannot conceive of a more valu.
able service, a more womanly service. I
can give, every girl who enrolls in the reserve
my, personal assuranc that she Is making
heri-clf count, nnd I sh&mld be ashamed of
any woman who did not long with all her
heart and Voul to make herself count In the
defeat of Germany."

ATTENDANCE AT CLUBS
KEPT DOWN BY WAR
Many Members Are With Colors
or Doing Other Work to
Help Uncle Sam
Things are very quiet these days In Phlla
delphla's clubdom. Those clubs located In
the city proper are almost empty, save at
the luncheon hour, while even the country
clubs are like deserted villages, except late
In the afternoons.
So many of the active members are en
gaged In war work, either serving with the
colors or In the ordnance, quartermaster's,
medical and remount corps or In some closely
amilated organization such as the Bed Cross
or the Y. M C A . that the number of
"regulars" has been cut almost to the zero
point
Only the older men and the youths are
left and as most rllv clubs have a rule
barring an one from membership who Is
not twenty-one vears of age, they have no
such reserve to fall back on as have the
country clubs. The latter organizations per
mit bovs to become "playing members," and
these lads form a prcttv large proportion of
the attendance these davs
The I'nlon League and the Manufacturers'
Club, with their very large total member
shin and their large percentage of older
men. have not been affected as much as
clubs like the Hacquct, the Markham. tho
Art and the Illttenhouse. The rmiadeipma
Club's membership Is al'O largely composed
of older men. but even there many familiar
faces are missing.
There Is a good deal of golf being played
at tho country clubs, but usually late In the
afternoons or on Saturdays and Sundavs
Few men are taking davs off In the middle
of the week as In the past They are too
busy for that peace-time relaxation now
When they find it possible to arrange their
affairs so as to get away from the ottice for
any length of time they head for seashore
or mountains In search of change of scene ,
The week-end trip to the shore, always a
favorite pastime at this seaon, has cut Into
the ranks of the remaining tennis players,
and only a few- courts will be found In use
where every one would have been occupied
two years ago.
Under the direction of the War Chest coun
cil the social clubs have undertaken ho war
work as clubs, but have left It to their Indi
vidual members to do their bit In their own
way. So manv men belong to a number of
clubs that It was felt there would be waste
of energy and money and much duplication of
effort if each club started to do something
along some line of Its own.
Club emplojes have bought Liberty Bonds
and war-savings stamps in generous meas
ure, and every club, through the house com
mittee and the steward, has cut expenses to
the bone and has enfoiced every suggestion
of the food administration
Some clubs have even gone further than
the food controller has advised, the Merlon
Cricket Club, for instance, deciding to elimi
nate beef from Its menu for the summer
and probably for the duration of the war.
Instead the club offers a large variety of
fish, chicken prepared In manv ways, mutton,
lamb and 'o on
The dues of all members actively engaged
In the service of their country have been re
mitted by all the larger and most of the
smaller clubs, w filch made a terrific cut In
the Income of these particular organizations,
though It should be emphasized, to the credit
of manv men, that they refused to accept
the proffertd favor and have insisted on
paving their dues as in the prewar days.
Virtually all the clubs have tnrovvn open
their door to officers and enlisted men of the
armv and navy and have done ever thing
possible to make things pleasant for soldiers
and sailors on leave.

GERMANY MAY SEIZE CLOTHES
Tardy Response to Government Demand
Causes Threat of Confiscation
By the Associated Press
Amsterdam, July 20 The Herman Gov
ernment has given 'final notice" to the
public to give up voluntarilj at least one
suit vt clothes each to the war workers and
the army. Failure to meet the demand will
result in forcible requisition, and delin.
quents will be liable to Imprisonment for one
j ear and a fine not exceeding 10,000 marks

man communities has yielded its assessment
of worn clothes ty make up the aggregate of
the 1,000.000 suits requfVed Greater Berlin
only has contributed 34,994 of the 75.000 suits
demanded How- high the need for fabrics
has rlren is shown by a decree announcing
the Impsndlng confiscation of curtains, which
will be replaced gratis with paper-fiber mate
rial or paid for at the original peace-time
cost price less wear and tear
Although private residences have been ex
empted from the confiscation for the pres
ent, there already is a good deal of grum
bling. The Lokal Anzelger, of Berlin, makes
bold to say
"The population, especially the much
plagued middle classes, Is tired of making
endless sacrifices. If the Government wants
things. It should pay handsomely, as It does
the war-material purveyors."
