Teamwork For Community Rec
reatiOn an Essential.
LADIES' AID SOCIETIES.
Women's Associations Need a Common
ern Industrial Life Is Shaping the
Long Dormant Instinct For Group
Work.
BY EMILY S. JOHNSON.

The larger cities Of the country, wax
ing up to the chaotic condition of their
reforms and charities, have been hav-
ing themselves organized and sur
veyed." The suburbs go u~nsurveyed.
1t is in the suburbs that the charitable
societies are seldom coupled together,
seldom try for teamwork. 1t is in the
suburbs that the Ladies' Aid socie,y re-
fuses to perform anything but a solo
part in the music of the spheres, max
ing its independent, independable con-
tribution to the community, raising
money wildly and spending it wildly.
For no ladies' aid society-the term is
used generically and not limited to any
church organization-has a common
standard or a common aim with any
other. Trained workers do not have
anything to do with spending the
funds, for trained workers are not en-
ployed. There is no attempt to plan
ahead toward improving next years
town. All the money that is not spent
for the sectarian uses of nj or another
congregation is devoted to giving food,
medicine OF clothing to the very poor
or to nursing the sick. Essentially this
is the old fashioned woman's way of
doing good"
Women have been Il very long time
learning the principle of cooperation,
the multiplied power there is in COM
munity of effort. Some Of them in this
country are learning it now. The Ia
Dor unions and the suffrage movement
are grinding it into them day by day.
| Certainly modern industrial life is shap-
ing the long dormant instinct for group
work. Some groups already have a
sense of identity, Of power, of purpose.
Recently q group of women in Wilkes
barre, Pa, published orc issue of, a dali
ly paper of that city as a women's edi-
ton. Women's work in community life
| was especially to be sought after. But
the more one Travelled. talked. saw, the
more one realized that constructive
civic work in the suburbs could not be
written about-hecause it wasn't there.
There vas nowhere to be found any
| plan. No society even knew except by
chance gossip where another ladies' ail
was giving financial help to some local
| case of need.
The suburbs of Wilkesbarre are typ
ical, l think. of the industrial boroughs
of any of the northern states where
foreign labor has come in in variety to
do the community's rough work. These
towns are incredibly rich in churcl,
buildings. each editicc DrODcr to a sect
of its own or to n part of Il sect holding
it's worship in a foreign tongue. There
are too many divisions. Each builds q
church too big for it on a mortgage

The Haunted
House
A Story of Mexico.
By F. A. mitchell

"Is there a hacienda near by where
l can stop for the night" | asked a
man l met ON the road. l was travel
ing in the province of San Luis Po-
tosi, in Mexico.
NO, senior; there is nothing within
a convenient distance where one q
find entertainment. There is a desert
ed house about two miles down the
road, but l would not advise you to
stop there. You had better go back to
Nenado."
| had come from Venado. a distance
of eight miles. To go back and return
to where | was would be a round trip
Of sixteen miles. 1 was well mounted.
but did not care for such an addition
al journey in any event. l asked the
man to tell me more about the desert
ed house.
1T was formerly the country place
of a Spaniard who lived there with
his wife-he a crusty old man, she a
beautiful young woman. He was jeal-
Gus of her, and a tragedy occurred in
the house. Some say he murdered her
lover, and others say he murdered
both her and her lover. AT any rate,
he disappeared, leaving the house with
all the furniture in it. and so it has re-
manned to the present day"
rs it locked?"
ooh, yes: it is locked, but you will
have no difficulty in getting into it."
II have provisions in my haversack.
Why should l not go in there, roll my
self in my blanket and sleep till early
morning. then resume my j%ourney?"
"Well. senor," replied the man.
there is nothing to prevent your do
ing that, but I would not do it for all
the gold there is in Mexico"
What is there to fear!'
Men have slept there who have
never been seen or heard of afterward.
Men have slept there who have told
fearful tales"
This was not encouraging. but | was

Death Dealing Kisses.

The most famous example of kisses
that have caused death is furnished by
the story of the sprightly young Ouch
ess of Gordon, who raised so many re-
crGits for the famous Gordon highland
ers. In the early days of the regi-
ment recruiting was very slow. but
the duchess nttired herself in the reg
mental colorS and made IL tour of the
various markets and fairs. Offering to
each recruit Il guinea and Il kiss.
Most Of the recipients paid for the
kiss with their lives. No sooner was
the regiment raised than it was sent
to fight the French. and in the first
engagement in which the duchess re-
cruits participated there was Il loss of
800 killed and wounded. All the right
thanking company was hit save me
and he. curiously enough. did not hap
pen to be 4; recipient of the young
duchess kiss. He was y canny Aber-
deenShire man. and for an extra gum
Ell he sold his right to another larson
to a kiss from the duchess ruby lips.
