But it is these stories they must learn, TO
make them talk intelliCently upon the politi-

lessons they must be taught, and If their
country ever needs their help they keep
time to the roll Of drums and understand the
bugle's call.

FRIENDS INDEED.
DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS: You are
aExicusly waiting. many OF you. no doubt. to
hear how we succeeded in sending Sister Clara
u. Rushion to a warmer cline.
The following list of donors will show You
what was contributed. The first seven dollars
was sent by outsiders Of the &. c. but The Ma
TIoSAL TRIBUNE readers; Mrs W. H. Robin
son and dGaghter Mac AIckensie, sending 81
each from Christmas money; Cassie Rowe's
Gear little sister sending 10 pennies, all she
had. and that had been saved to buy her brother
a Christmas gift
If all the members. rs Sister Alice saws, would
send but mite il would amount to a great
Geal. 1t seems to me that our c. c. members
should feel as much interest as those outside our
ranks.
You viii see by list that collections amounted
to Sls.35. but through the kind recommended
tion OF our President, Kate b. Sherwood, we
drew on the National Treasurer Loyal Home
WORKERS III order that Clara need not wait I'M
til collections came in
There was SIS used from tie treasury ANY
one desiring TO help make up that amount will
forward mites to me- aud IL will be turned over
to Treasurer Mary J.. Best Though Clara was
a stranger to Lynn Relief Corps, they gave her
50 toward paying cxnenses.
Clara started New Years Day. leaving Boston
at p. IN, for Layton, Utah, where she Las
decided TO stop at an uncles, hoping the climate
may prove so beneficial she need 20 no farther
south. When rested she will write to you
through The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
Thanking all who so kindly aided in the
good work, am yours Loyalty,
Annie L. Williams.

STAND UP AND ANSWER.
DEAR C. C. FRIENDS: also had paid little
attention TO Brother Seaman's letter until nv
attention was called TO it by Sister Smiths
reply. L lind in that letter several things to
which ]. as one the sex criticized object.
1t is true that the practice OF indiscrimi mate
kissing among women is an Objectionable one,
but the other sex have many which are more so.
can see nothing out Of the way in a woman
kissing little innocent child: but really. Bro.
Seaman, don't think any man need keep a
cigar in his mouth TO avoid sharing the same
sad fate. i am sure IL even yon had an idea
that smoking would prevent pretty girl from
kissing you, you would forswear that vice for
ever.
1t seems TO me that in his criticism, Brother
Seaman looks only at tho wcake or, more friyol.
Gus OF our sex, and utterly ignores the many
noble. true-hearted. sensible women, who are
worthy Of all consideration aud respect
There are, alas many women who are guilty
OF the foolish aud malicious practice of gossip
ing aud tale bearing. but DO not think they
outnumber those of the stronger sex, who are
guilty Of the same practice: and women very
seldom stand on street corners and gossip half
day at time.
Now, should like to ask Brother Seaman
one question. When the woman of the future
reaches the state of refinement and general
perfection TO which he looks forward, what is
to become of her?
lie restricts her TO a few OCCUPATIONS which
are already overcrowded, and she cannot marry
for the man Of the present day is 10 fit mate
for such a woman, and lie does not seem IN
contemplate any improvement in the man.
Perhaps he thinks that is hopeless Loyalty
