I think we owe a vote of thnnks to the women who l.ave been doing this volunteer work and are still doing It.

WEREN'T you delighted to htar' that Jack and Katherlne Conger have a little son? He was born on Monday, and he is to be named John De Feyster Conger, Jr. Quite a coincidence! Hla little cou sin. Katherlne Clark's baby, Bayard Stock ton Clark, was born In New Haven last week. Katherlne Clark and Cack Conger ' are sister and brother, you know, and so the little cousins will doubtless be close friends. The Clarks are in New Haven for. the winter, as Frank Clark Ik in the service there. Lieutenant Conger is sta tloned at Carr.p Upton, though he has been given a two weeks' leave at p-esent and lias therefore seen his small son. Mrs. Conger was Katherlne Hare, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. Em- tt Hare, 'of this city, and sister of Phyllis Hare iTaxrow, Rene and Emlen Hare. Blnce her Jharriage sho has been living with her husband's family, as Jack has been in lamp most o- the time. txoN'T you feel proud w:un you actually VfJknow ont. of the men who have been tommended? I do. I Just fairly gulped kvlth Joy w!en I learned that Vaughan derrick had been commended my Major peneral Muir for fighting on for two hours after he had been wounded, refusing go be relieved or to leave his men. Bob Jefferys, too, was spoken of. Those boys were both in the Troop an" were trans ferred into the Infantry. Vaughan is a brother of Mrs. McKean Downs, who was Anne Merrick, and he h3 two other sis ters. Mary ami Catherine, and a brother, Rodney Merrick. They are a devoted and tmited family and must be pro'- of Vaughan'a fine record. ' Bob Jefferys is the son of Dr. Jefferys, who is rector of St. Peter's Church He is "over there" also as chaplain with the Episcopal Hospital unit. IN THE midst of all the fighting and horrors overseas it doesn't take an American leng to pick out the bright spots, and it doesn't take him very much longer to write them down aad send them home. A captain who has been over, there ior a long time and has seen his company pretty well shot to pieces, wrote an Inter 1 istlng letter the other day. He told very kittle of the fighting, but he did tell a Wood story. It was about one of our gal llant colored flchters who was strolling along a muddy road. A big gun was sta tioned nearby, but it was so well camou eaged that he knew nothing about It until Ijt suddenly "rlz up" and sent a large H. E. across to Jerry with such a thundering roar that tho wandering Yank was thrown completely of. his feet and out of : his elf- possession.

Help Needed The American Red Cross Volunteer Factory No. 1, at HIE Market street, has resumed operations after a shut-down of tw weeks The plant was closed when it became appar ent during the epidemic of Influensa that the need for nurses was more urgent than the demands made for clothing for the Belglatfs and French. The majority of the women workers who have been producing clothing at the factory volunteered their services sS nurses when the epidemic got beyond 'the control of the elty's regular staffs and aided the sufferers here. The need for more workers at the factory N now urgent, as the time lost during the two weeks the machines were Idle must he made up. Prospects of an early peace hne, caused no let-up in the work, In view of the fact that millions of persons In the' v. nr-torn lands of Europe must be clothed by this country for some time after the war end. Directors of the factory, which Is a branch of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Chapter of the Red Cross, plan to ask chairmen of- all of the Hmnll auxiliaries of the organization In the city to Issue a call for clunteer workers to demote part of v their time to the plant each week to aid In satisfying the demands made for warm clothing for the Belgians and French.

CHAPTER III "THE BLUE IMPS" ffrpHIS Is very serious! We must help J.. Mrs. Dalton at once," declared the Giant of the Woods, when Blue Jay brought word that the Blue Imps hail captured the mother of the two soldier boys, Ben and Bill. "Will you aid us. Sir Ready Smller?" he called to the leader of the Rosy reps. "Sure we will If Princess Peggy ill give us strength," responded the handsome pink knight. "I'll do anything I can," promised Peggy, who was still a bit confused over the strange appearance of the Blue Imps, and their at tack on her. 8he didn't know how she could give strength to the dashing Rosy Pep3, but she was perfectly willing to try . "Come on. then! We muat hurry," cried the Olanf. With that he, swung Peggy to his shoulder and set off at a stride that carried him over the ground surprisingly fost. The Rosy Peps followed in military formation, like flying cavalry. "Wasn't It funny the way those Blue Imps exploded when the Rosy Peps punctured them," chuckled Peggy. "Yes," agreed the Giant. "The Blue Imps, like a lot of our other troubles, swell up mighty big and cause no end of harm if we let them, but If we Just prick them they promptly blow up ker-bang, and we find that they are nothing more than air after all." "But they seemed mighty strong when I was In their power," shuddered Peggy. "Yes, -they'll tie you up quicker than a wink If you let them get hold of you," replied the Giant. "And once their fetters are fastened, they seem to squeeze all the life and energy out of you. I know. They used to get me often in the days before you reformed me.." "What would they have done to me, if you hadn't come along?" asked Peggy. "They'd have taken you to the Valley of Gloom, an awful place filled with poisonous gases, and there they would have kept you and tortured you until you wasted an ay, and maybe lost your mind or died."' "How horrible." Peggy shuddered again, and her face grew gloomy as she thought of the fate she had escaped. She was glod she was protected now by the valiant Rosy Peps. She looked up gratefully, only to gasp In dismay. The Rosy Peps were flying away as fast as they could. ' "Here, here, call them back again !" shout, ed the Giant, looking so upset Peggy couldn't help laughing at him. That's, It. Laugh! Laugh!" roared the Giant, Jiggling her up and down until Peggy snriexea with glee. And as she shrlekea, the Rosy Peps came swooping back as chipper and eager as ever. "Keep smiling!" whispered the Giant. "They are afraid of sour faces and run away from them. That gives the Blue Imps a chance to take possession." "I'ld smile and smile." replied Peggy, who by this time was her old cheerful self again. "See that blue cloud ahead?" said the Giant. 'That's the Imp army around Mrs. Dalton's home, "My gracious, can we break through?" asked Peggy, looking at the dark uilst that hung over the farm house a mist that she could now see was made up of thousands and thousands of Blue Imps. "We have to break through," Insisted the Giant. "The Blue Imps are slowly poisoning Mrs. Dalton, and are planting their eggs in her Ink so. that when she writes to her sol dier boys, her letters carry hundreds of Blue Imps over there to weaken the morale of our fighters. Do you know what 'morale means?" "Of course I do," replied Peggy. "It means grit and courage and determination to thrash the Huns." "You're right. That's why we have to blow up the h,unnlsh Blue Imps over here If we're going to prevent their weakening our boys over there," "Princess Peigy, we are ready to attack," cried Sir Ready Smller, as they halted In front of the masses of scowling Blue Imps that surrounded the Dalton home. "Will you lead us with a song and dance T", ' Peggy thought this was a queer way fo go Into battle, but she was soon to find it a mighty good way in attacking the Blue Imps. ITomarrow will tt told how Peggy, the Giant and the Rosy Pep fight hrough.the Blue Imp army, J APPEAL FOR AUTOMOBILES Emergency Aid Aikt Machines to Convey Children Orphaned by Grip Owners of automobiles are asked by the nursing committee of the Emergency Aid to give the use of their' machines to the com mittee for the next few days; The machines are to be used to convey to the different homes children who were left orphans and destitute when their parents fell victims to. the influensa, a dosan or more automobiles are wanted at enca at the l "3"" !"

PORAL FRYE URGE WOMEN AGAINST CUTTING LABOR PRICES Trade Union League Sees Indus trial Crisis if Practice Is Continued That women lnslt upon equal wages for equa'l work with men, not only for their own protection in trade, but for the protection of men workers, Is a point receiving the ear nest attention of the Women's Trade Union League, this city It was stated today that women going Into, work hitherto so!el In the hands of men, doing It as well as men and not Insisting upon equal pay, were paving the way for a crisis In the labor situation. A tase was cited of a firm which adver tised for women workers on the lines that patriotic women should release men for the war The Job was one previously done by men, who received an excellent wage. Women who took up this Job were paid, it was said, about $G a week less than the wage of a man In antebellum davs. It was explained that the result of wom en's accepting such conditions is damaging both to themselves and to men who are not able to get a war position and who must support families nt a time when the cost of living has nearly doubled. Naturally, where such cheap labor la obtainable for work which can be quite as ablv accomplished by women as by men, it wan pointed out no employer woul be likely to keep positions open for men who would not accept such wages This question will he the hubjcc( under discussion at several meetings of the Wom en's Trade Union League, 248 South Eighth street. The next of these meetings will be held earlyln November.
