Ifc? i V ''mtttossipAffiQrpEopm 'liffi .. n,' JVancy Wynne Tells of Work Red Cross Miss Winpenny TUST because It's summer Is no reason why any one should think she has a chance to rest and stop.vvork for the sailors and soldiers. No, Indeed, nothing doing, so to speak, .on that point. ''' Twenty-five thousand comfort kits will be needed In the fall for the men of the Fourth Naval District who are to man the new ships so soon to be completed. And the Navy Auxiliary of the Red Cross Is Working accordingly. Every man who goes to the front has his comfort kit glen to him, and besides that little kit, you may be sure the feeling of food will that goes w'ith It finds Its way Into that man's heart nnd warms It with the thought that the women ofnhls coup try are back of him. TVTAJOR GENERAL. PERSHING, you x"- know, In speaking of the kits sent to his men by the Red Cross, said: "These things make a soldier remember that the "people at home are behind him. You do not know how much that will mean to Ms who are going abroad. You do not know how much that means to any soldier who la over there carrying the flag of his country." The Navy Auxiliary furnishes free to its aectlona all materials and contents for making these kits according to Red Cross specifications. The bag Itself Is made of blue denim or "dungaree" for the navy man, and measures 12 by 8 Inches when finished. The kit contains a housewife, completely fitted, shaving soap, a tooth brush In a case, a short comb, also In a case; a pencil, with eraser and metal cap to cover point, and twenty yards of light strong cord. Other articles are often In cluded, such as a jack-knife, a small carbo rundum stone, a safety razor, twenty-five .post cards, a small crash towel and a white handkerchief. During the last week 700 kits -have been eut out and sent to the various sections from the navy house headquarters, 221 Bouth Eighteenth street, 'and the work Is continuing at the same rate. Seven thou sand one hundred nnd sixty-seven knotted Articles were turned In by the Navy Aux iliary for the month of June, making a total of 43,011 from November" 1 to July 1. The June report Included 2646 sweaters, 100 helmets, 397 mufflers, 348 pairs of wristlets, 3664 pairs of socks, ten ear tabs Ind two large afghans. That Is going some. Isn't It? I SUPPOSE you hae heard tliat Anna Gilpin and Marshall Winpenny are married. They had a very, very, quiet wed ding at the Church of the Holy Trinity, Walnut and Nineteenth streets, on Satur day, Doctor Tomklns performing the cere mony. You see, Anna's mother, Mrs. Washington Gilpin, died only about ten days ago and so, though they decided to be married, they had the ceremony with as llttlo publicity and as few people as possible present. They have been In love with each other for a long time,, and I hope they will be very happy. But there is bound to be some time of separation and anxiety, "as Marshall Is sailing very soon forTrance, where he will do some Red Cross work, and of course he cannot take his wife with him. ITS funny how casual some persons be come after marriage! For instance, suppose you were walking ouj with your best young man an'd you fell suddenly in the middle of a small street Just as he had shot ahead for your dog, which was stick ing Its nose Into a milk bottle on some one's step. Would he not turn and rush back to your rescue and tio everything he could to help you and comfort you for the humiliation of having lost your balance? Of course he would; and when you marry you expect him to go on feeling Just as solicitous, don't you? Of course you do. Well, donlt get too sure you are going to get it, as you might be disappointed. Nancy was walking along Twenty-first Street a few days agcTwhen a man and his wife and their pet dog came sauntering along. Small dog began prancing ahead and husband followed it to prevent Its getting a bone from a refuse can which was situated on Rlttenhouse street. Well, you know that small street between Rlt tenhouse and Locust? Just as Friend Wife arrived there she twisted her foot and sat down In the middle of that small street. After several moments of confusion she looked up to see husband rushing back to help her? Not a bit of It. He was standing beyond Rlttenhouse street making Indifferent ges tures for her to come on. She did not move, but sat there trying to come to the situation, al it were. Then suddenly the humor of It struck her and she shook and shook with laughter. Back strode husband vand when he came up remarked: "Oh, did you fall? I thought you were sitting down to rest a moment." Now that's true, for Nancy saw It and heard It, and she almost bent double herself; for who on earth would choose the middle of a small and dusty alleyway for a resting place? Well, he helped her up finally and the dog barked and she laughed and there was a big time. Friend Wife, however, had to have the last word and remarked: "You would not have done that when we were engaged. You never would have taken it for granted that I had done anything" but Injured my self, and you would have been awfully solicitous. How you have Changed! NANCY WYNNE.

One volumo has already been pub lished. "Hark Home." n Darks' Pmer While his dialect verses are perhaps tin better, he has written some in pure English with a depth of meaning. "Back Home" Is a favorite with audiences before which be often reads. It follows: "I"s purine lack home t' ale Virginity, Amony icm flrlils ob yellow torn; Hack to s(! nilh my huiinily. De sweetest ii"l ""at r'cr was born." This, as well as his "Shake Dat 'Simmon Tree," are typical of the old southern darky's simple wants: 'Vat's all life 'bout youh wath million, t'ftlcfccii or yoiift 7tni, Or turkey tak dei white fokes cat, Or little baby trim'. But honey, 1 it's jnini delight Dat you would feed to me. Jest let me, when de possum's ripe. Go shake dat 'simmon tree. Ah sutinly want t' go t' hebm.

And fight for Uncle Sam. And when this war is over. Sure as earth is 'neath the sky. They'll treat the negro as a man Or Sambo's bound to die! Our colored boys had not been tried Upon this foreign soil, We knew not wha( we might expect From those young sons of toil. At last the bugle tailed for them, In trench they found a place, With French to right and French to left And Germans face to face. And, recogiAtcd at last as men Despite their darker hue; (In France, the test of manhood is That heart and hand be true). In vain they sought by night and day, Across the top to climb.

Amidit the ever thickrnlnrj gloom That comr before the ilnwn. Two packs of twelve of wolf-like Huns Were deftly incaking on. When near, they threw a dcndlu bomb, And Johnson felt its blow. Then like a tiger scenting blood, He turned upon the foe. With rifle, knife nnd hand grenade. It seemed a demon's part. But love of ficedom and his flag Were stirring at his heart. While Roberts, scrambling in the duit, Thrice placed by pistol shot. Threw hand grenades, brought down two Hum To share a harsher lot.
