like that of Germany's, the French or
ganization is recruited among volun-
teers, all civilians. None are paid in
any way and no other incentive but to
serve France is offered them. In this
way the government has secured from
all walks of life a good number of
men, and even women, fond of excite
ment, who are after neither gain nor
honor but who would not stoop to
such work in time of peace.
Up to date dozen or so of these
unarmed soldiers have disappeared,
some prisoners, most have ended their
lives, eyes bandaged. against farm

played only one part in the history Of
lace making. The Belgians are ia
nous for their work. So are the
French. So are the Irish. So are
the Danes. People go to see Miss
Hadley's laces as they go to see old
friends, or as people go to the Metro
politan museum to feast upon its
treasures. To some persons old laces
have very strong personal appeal.
When Miss Hadley disposes of one Of
her belongings that she has had for
long time, the regulars sigh, If they
do not actually mourn
There probably is not another busi-
ness in all New York just like that
of this lace maker from little Cana
dian town. She has the histories and
the romances of hundreds of families
in. the goods she deals in. Many Of
her laces are heirlooms. Some are
old-time lace shawls that have been
in one family for two, three, four or
five generations. Some of them are
very old and very rare. Now 1t is
the fashion for us to use these as
wedding wells or as decorations for
wedding dresses. The more of his
tory there is to one of these ex-
quisite bits of lace, the more valu-

600 AVAILABLE
FOR US. SERVICE
Great Lakes Gould Furnish Many
Seamen for New Marine

OF total of 1850 marine engineers
now available for ocean service, in
the event of the establishment of a
merchant marine service, 500 are from
the Great Lakes district, according 20
official letters written TO Judge Alex
ander of Detroit, chairman Of the mer-
chant marine committee, by William
r. Yates, president Of the Marine En-
gineers' Association Of America.
Besides 600 engineers available for
ocean service from the lake district,
there are 20 vessels, 80 steel and 40
wooden, all of the canal type size. The
above figures were compiled by Mr..
Yates after correspondence with rep
resentatives and collectors of almost
all important L. 5. ports.
In six of the big seaports there are
now 100 ocean going craft out of COM
mission, which accounts for so many
engineers out Of work.
The total of 1850 engineers listed
from the various ocean and lake ports
are only those who are out of employ
ment, and it is believed by local ves-
selmen that twice that many could be
obtained with little difficulty.
IF the government really needs en-
gineers, the Great Lakes alone could
supply more than the total number
handed Judge Alexander by Mr..
Yates" said Detroit marine engi-
neer yesterday Not only would the
men who are in the lake district and
out of employment be glad to 20 to
the coast, but there are many who
have boats that would be only too
pleased TO go.'
Besides advising Congressman Alex
ander of the number of men and ships
available for ocean service, officers OF
the marine engineers have in letters
asked him TO protect the
right Of the engineers as
officers Of ships, against the invasion
of foreign men of the same craft He
is being asked to avoid all repetition
of the city of New York and City OF
Paris episode.
When those boats were admitted to
American registry, the engineers, all
foreigners, were permitted to remain
in charge, and as a result it was not
until years later that an act of con-
gress eventually ruled that engineers
were officers and their rights protect
ed against foreign invasion.
