Ik. Chestnut Hill Service House
f Wynne Discusses Yesterday's Launching Summer Vaca
tions and War Work Away From Home
wimp. rviMfnnt Hill Service has not
allowed the hot weather to Interfere
1 with Its work for one minute. Last week
'' the canning department put up 433 quaits
of vegetables and fruit, which was going
l some for last week. If you remember how
hot It was. The children all help wun me
work, and feel terribly Important trotting
around the kitchens. Mrs. George D. Mc
Creary has charge of this work. ThlB week
a campaign for nurses Is going on In Chest
nut Hill, and there Is an enrollment office
at the Service House, where they hope to
take In a lot of names. Mrs. Francis D.
McGrath, who has had charge of surgical
dressings up there, has been appointed a
supervisor at the Independence Square
auxiliary of the Red Cross, so Mrs. n
Korrls Williams Is golns to take her place.
It is surprising how much surgical dress
Ing work can be done when a group of
earnest workers get together. There are
classes every Wednesday night now up at
headquarters. 1815 Chestnut street, and al-
though they are rather small classes some
times, they do accomplish a good deal of
work In the two hours and a half that the
workroom Is open.
n 'Not content with working from day to
day in Chestnut Hill, they are making
plans for lectures In the fall, and will
begin enrollments In Septembor. Miss
Umerlck will have charge of these courses,
which will be for the Italian girls of the
neighborhood. They will be taught cooking
and bread making and general housework,
arid 'at the end of the course will be given
certificates In general household efficiency.
Wouldn't you feel proud and Important If
you had a piece of paper certifying that
you were generally householdly efficient
or generally anything efficient. Margaret
.Mellor. who has been secretary at the Serv
ice House, has resigned to do the same
kind of work along broader lines, and her
place has been taken bv Mrs. Allene C
Martin, who has been organizing secretary
throughout the State In the Liberty Loan
campaign Slg. Mellor. Margaret's
brother, Is down in Washington now, by
the way, with Mr. Hurley, of the ship
ping board. Mrs. Mellor. who was Helen
Lee, daughter of Mr-- Hdward C. Lee, is
down at Cape May this summer with her
two babies
A GOOD many people have loft town
this month, although most of the
people who aie away have gone just for a
' flew weeks instead of the usual few months.
J War Work rnnnot bo left even in hot
'' weather, and everybody realizes It. Kven
those who are away are still working, for
In Cape May, you Know, there is the Allied
teahouse that Catherine Cassard and her
"mother are running, and that keeps Emer
gency Aid aides busy down there. Then
In Atlantic City, at one of the armcies.
there is a canteen that works all day Pun
day for men who go down there over the
week-end, and want home-cooked food.
Women who aie there for the summer
"stand all day In the hot kitchen rooking
"ham and two eggs" for the genial men
In uniform who stop In and ask for it In
their usual pleasant manner. Of course,
""there are Red Cross workrooms In every
i town In the country, so you can be sure of
''-finding war work near at hand wherever
you go. A number of people are leaving
this week for a few weeks of cool weather
"and sea breeze Mr and Mrs. Francis King
-"Walnwrlght, of Bryn Mawr, are going to
Northeast Harbor for this month, and Mrs.
