Ichow everything in It hns been lent nt!
every pleoe of furniture and equipment Is
tainted, o that It looks like a museum.
The women of the Main Line have been
dolnV wonderful work out there and Mrs.
Thome Braneon has been moat faithful
at It. They havs tea every afternoon In
the nurse' sitting room for the nurses,
members of the motor corps and aides, and
the doctor have lunch there every day at
1:M and talk things over together.
aire, falter Chrystie Is In charge of the
household department and there are vol
unteer worker every day! who wash
dishes, arrange the linen ar.d cut flowers
fer the forty-five patients that are now In
the hospital. The whole thing Is financed,
?au know, by the Red Cross and the town-
h'.p committee. Another thing that vol
unteer workers have done out there Is to
,.kMp one of the laundries open.. With so
many demands on Its capacity ana many
of Its employes down with Itfluensa, It
- would have been entirely swamped If it
' hadn't been for these women, who went
there and co.ntcd things and sorted them
and did things like that to release the
people who ordinarily do It for the regu
lar laundering.
I think we owe a vote of thnnks to the
women who l.ave been doing this volunteer
work and are still doing It. They "haven't
hesitated for a minute and their work has
been of the most trying kind. , Mrs. John
Wanamakef, Jr.. of the Emerge c? Aid,
who had charge of the emergency nursery
fdr children whose parents were sick, Is
still busy arranging for the children who
have had the disease themselves to be sent
" to the country or to some place where
they will be wt". takari care of and fed
while they are getting over 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. "Good Lawar ne .

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

The need for more workers at the factory
N now urgent, as the time lost during the

caused no let-up in the work, In view of the
fact that millions of persons In the' v. nr-torn

Directors of the factory, which Is a branch

The Eggs of the Blue Imps
IPeggu is captured by the Blue Impt,
who are carrying her away to the Valley
of Gloom, when the Qtanl of the Woods
rescues her.)
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

Cheerfulness of the American soldier Is

was a canteen manager for the V. M. C. A.
and a Red .Cross worker. Miss Norris Is

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

QUIETS MEN IN WAR
Appeal for Discs for Army Use
Emphasized by Striking
Example
To meet a reslly great need for phono
graph records for the aoldlers there has been
organised the national record recruiting
corps, of which the chairman Is Major Gen
eral Franklin Bell. The committee in
charge In composed of eighty men and
women.
Major Hell writes: 'The person who gives
a record for the use of our boys gives some
thing that will cheer and Inspire them aa
nothing else can." Two fragments of let
ters from overseas make a touching appeal
for the Joys of the beloved "canned
music."
A corporal who shall be nameless here
writes:
"We ha Just one talking machine and
It is dated for many weeks In advance.
Rach sergeant of the billet can engage it
for an evening for his men. The records are
a poor broken-down collection, hut they are
always being plaved, because It Is Just a lit
tle bit of home In a far country."
The other letter as"
"My men were shell-shock victims, and
when the big guns began their nlghtlvy
serenade mv hands were full. There seemed
to be no way of quieting the poor fel
lows while the flashes In the sky and the
roar of the guns lasted. The next n'ght I
brought In a little talking machine, shut all
the doors and windows, picked out the loud
est record 1 could find and played It for grim
death. It worked wonders. It took their
minds off the guns. All night long 1 played
that little Instrument until the bombard
ment ceased, and they slept quietly until
morning"
This Is "tlecordi" for Fighters" week
I'very home has been asked to dig out Idle
records and contribute needles, giving them
to the local dealer, who will forward them
to headquarters.
The records must be In good condition, for
one Is asked not to send anv record for the
use of the bovs at sr, In the trenches and
at the hospitals that one would not play
one's self. Or one can send money to buy a
small machine or records or albums.
