GIRLS SEEK KITS
FOR WAR BABIES
Many French and Belgian
Mothers in Want-FlOur
Fund Succeeds.

Miss Gladys Hollingsworth, Of the
committee Of the American Girls Aid
for the collection Of clothing for Bel
gian and French war victimn, has
started a special branch Of relief work
to help the thousands of babies who
will be born in France this spring and
summer. She made public yesterday
the following cable message from her
father, W. 7. p. Hollingsworth, in
Paris:
Il have witnessed the return Of
French civil prisoners, arriving at the
rate of about 1000 each day, in a des-
titute condition. Hundreds Of babies
are born in captivity, and their only
clothing is improyised from the
mothers soiled and tattered rament.
Great is the need for baby outfits, out
er and under clothing for women and
children and shoes of all kinds The
return of 10000 more civil prisoners
is expected"
Distribution Of baby kits will be
undertaken by Mrs. Gaston Pinto, who
is now in Paris. To her sister, Miss
Hollingsworth, she wrot recently:
I'VE are making layettes' for the
women who are expecting babies.
There are lots Of them, girls Of four

be found more impractical than the
former. II is better TO be conservative.
Many of the laws which we have are as
basically common sense as the laws
which tell animals what TO DO. We have

you find any difference between the two

Among my Camp Fire girls and Boy
Scouts have never observed any mem

muscular inferiority of girls, but
otherwise no." Mr. Seton while in Eng
land was instrumental in charging the
scoDe OF the Girl Guides" an organiza-
ton which is parallel to the American
Camp fre Girls.
THAT is another thing which femi-
nism has done. Il has made it possible
for the girls TO have the same adj
vantages Of mental and physical edu-
cation as the boys A number of years
ago such an organization would have
been impossible. Now the importance
Of it becomes more apparent to edu-
Gators daily. There are many things

that are of far greater importance than
learning the map Of ancient Greece.
