Isn't it funny the way ou forget just what 3 oh want to remember, just when ou want to remember it? I GOT all "hetup" jesterday. 1 heard that the National League for 1)1 Women's Service had' given B supper and entertainment at the Ship and lent Club for tho men who went on the Historical Hike on Suuda afternoon. There were ninety men, led by Mr. Albert Cook Mjers, as usual, and 1 thought that there had been n large committee of women who served the upper aud plajdl hostess to the men, and I got all curious to know who the women were, because I love to know things like that. And I discovered that the national league was onlyires .,, r,nnn,.!nllv. and thnt the entertain ment was a fine entertainment, but that thero was HO lepresentnuves o. int. league there. So T was forced to put my curiosity back in my pocket ami wait for something cisc io nuii.... BEING one of those enthusiastic war workers, who liked her position too much to give it up when the armistice was signed. She is forced: to stay in town while the family enjoys the hre'ozes at the seashore. But. rien so. She doesn't have Mich a bad time, be cause She hustles down there even Saturday on the 12:30 and doeM.t i i ....in ilio ft something on .Mon- day. But She does find it troublesome .to live in two places: to start off on a rainy dav In a dark dress and take light ones in the suitcase. Then when .1 clears off and gets not and the dark dress is too bulky to put m the suit case, and you leave it down there, am the next week is cool and raiuy, and jou.have nothing but light dresses 'it is annojing! But somehow She s managed to get around that and it doesn't bother her. The 'worbt thing is forgetting things like a brush or a powder puff or the belt which is the piece de resistance of u dress. And so, to be on the tafe side, the last time She went down She bought a complete set of everything that jou usually forget hair brush. comb, tooth brush, and even a shoe horn and took them down with her, and left them there to be sure to have them. And on Wednesday arrived n large package with a note from Mother: "You left all these things down here, nud r was sure you'd need all of them, so 1 scut them up immediately," and behold, the whole array of substitutes competing with the "regulars" for a place on the bureau.
