relief FOR FRENCH IN
WAR zones PLANNED
Civic Section of Twentieth Century
Club Will Work to Aid Orphans
and Homeless.

Plans for the relief of dwellers In the
war zones of France have been made by
the civic section of the Twentieth Cen
fury Club. and two movements soon will
be started. One is to aid the orphans OF
the French frontier. and the other work
will be to help the peasantry of the
devastated Marine district. Mrs. Ernest
Bicknell has been made chairman of the
war relief committee of the civic section.
Aid will be extended to the orphans of
Europe through the Franco-American
committee of Paris, an organization
working for the protection of the chill
dren. The taking up Of this work is part
ly due to the earnest efforts of Mrs.
Bicknell. who has just returned from
could in Washington to- aid the work.
The Franco-American committee Is
now caring for LOO children and hopes
to supply 500 Of them with food and
clothing during the approaching winter
and until they may be returned to the
lands from which they came. The
Twentieth Century Club is to elect a
committee to make new clothes for the
orphans and Mrs. Frank Baker will be
in charge.
The civic section OF the Twentieth Gen.
fury Club will work for contributions of
money TO be forwarded to France for the
purchase of simple articles of furniture
so that the peasants may again make a
start to build up the homes which were
torn down. This work will supplement
the work already ,being done by the So
ciety OF Friends of England, an organi-
zation which has taken up the building
of little wooden houses which the home
less may occupy in the Marine district
One public meeting in the interests nj
each cause will be held by the club. The
date OF the meeting for the peasants of
the Marine is already set'for early In De-
cember.

These are samples of the questions fred

phone company, according to ]. Oliver
Martin. representative OF the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Telephone Company,

the telephone before the Mount Pleasant

The SwIfchbonr Girl.
Why does the girl rule the telephone
switchboard?
Mr.. Martin answered this question by
showing slide of the early DAYS, when
boys pulled the chords" The boys
argued with the subscribers, quarreIed
with each other and played tricks with
the WIRES" said Mr.. Martin. and so the
girl came. not because she was cheaper,
put OcSduSe sne maze q better and more
courteous operator"
The recent development OF the wireless
telephone will make possible in the near
future the establishment of Indirect
telephone service between the largest
cities and the smallest Lakewood settle
ments, saiu the lecturer
Mr.. Martin explained that large thinly
populated areas of the country have
been deprived of the convenience of the
telephone because the company would
not be repaid for the cost of extending
wire equipment into those sections, such
as the vast plains of the West With
the wireless telephone. however, the
company will be able to transmit calls by
wire TO some powerful radio center such
as the Arlington government station and
from there send the voice into the wiids
of the desert by wireless telephony.
Mr.. Martin explained the progress OF
the telephone from is discovery by
Alexander Graham Bell in 1875. down to
the recent achievement of talking TO
Paris by wireless telephony. He ex-
hibited views of the telephone equip
ment Of European countries. showing
clearly that the United States is far
ahead OF the rest OF the world in tele-
phone efficiency. AS an example. Mr.
Martin stated that there are more
telephones in Philadelphia than in the
entire country of Austria Hungary.
