PAT DECLARES
It has come, the very thing I told
you about yesterday, little book, and
it has come sooner than-I- expected.
Yesterday my little nurse asked me
for holiday, which I was only too
glad to give.
Annie promised to spend the day
with me and Mo1ie brought a nurse
from the hospital to fix me for the
night
I was almost sure that Alice was
going out with Pat, but did not ask
any questions.
Do you know, little book, that one
of the greatest abuses of friendship
is the assumption that because you
call a person your friend you have
the right to interfere with his rules
of conduct and to inquire into his
actions?
What a friend tells you is yours as
a gift of friendship; that for which
you beg, and which is given to you
almost always reluctantly, is not
ITlendSnlp'S git, but something
which if asked often will surely break
the tie.
I expect, little book, if one should
know all the confessions I have told
you one would think perhaps that l
was very censorious of my friends
and a rather disagreable person to
have around. But you know never
censure my friends, either to them
selves or to others, only to you, dear
confidante, do l say just what think
about everything and every one, in
Guiding myself.
No one has ever heard me speak
i'll of another, simply because I do
not believe I can judge what is good
and what is i'll in another.

so many, many times, 1T is all mixed

SOME THINGS THE
SOLDIERS IN EU-
ROPE WOULD LIKE

The Womans Home Companion
for December prints an editorial in
which the writer says about a wom-
an whom she asked what the sold
iers would need:
She said, to begin with. that we
couldn't go far wrong If we sent a
man a pair of suspenders. Their
suspenders are always wearing out!
Shoe strings would be tremend-
ously appreciated; If soldiers shoe
string breaks, and his shoe slips off
just as he is running across a field
in a shower of bullets, it may mean
death.
"A candle: If man can scoop a
tiny hole in the side of a trench,
put his candle into it, light up, and
play game of cards with pal, or
even look at another human face,
life is little gayer.
Safety pins! DO send safety
pins!' said Mrs. Duryea. When a
boy has no mother to sew on a but
ton, think of the comfort of safety
PIN
Each pocket must have a pencil
and some paper and envelopes, so
that a man can write a letter home.
A shirt; a pipe; piece of Irvine
box of buttons; a cake of soap. u

GROUP OF REAL COMMUNISTS
Remarkable Settlement on the coaae
Of the North Sea Founded by
Louis XIV.

Communists may be surprised TO
learn that an absolutely communistic
settlement exists In France on the
coast of the North sea between Grave

lon has lately described this remark

lrently visited by pirates. Here the
king established four families from
Picardy to occupy the fort, giving them
vast uncultivated territory on condi-
ton that they would never sell 1t nor

/ families, almost all fishermen, have
adopted the following regulation

middle Of II, and there are 1000 OF
these. The people belonging to this
community, freed from all fear for the
future Of their family, marry young
and have many children. The births
average forty-three a thousand, and
infant mortality is very low.
Poverty is unknown here because 1,

Hazel, back home, laid aside the

spoke Mrs. Hannah Blake.
"Oh, never thought of money, dear
Mrs. Blake! I'm only too glad to be
able to help you"
"You are good, kind-hearted girl,
and nothing but happiness will come
to you. It's been hard week for all
Of us, but you have borne your burden

"Oh, Mrs. Blake!" fluttered Hazel
Blair, all aflush.
"Its true, and l don't know how we

as I began to say, l can't pay you In

When cross-grained, tyrannical old
Silas Blake was taken down with n
fever, 1t was in harvest time, with all
the hands busy, the well ones of the
family included. nurse was neces-
sary, but the Blakes were in money
straits; Hazel, who lived at the next
farm with her aunt, volunteered. Mrs.
Blake had been friendly and kind to
Hazels mother during her last illness,
and the true-hearted daughter re-
membered 1t.
Mrs. Blake led Hazel into a lit
tie storeroom where the old bureau
stood, and opened one Of its drawers.
She carefully drew out long, bulky,
but neatly cared-for package done up
In sheet, placed 1t on a table, after
busting off the latter, and drew aside
the folds of the sheet, revealing a
beautiful toilette. The outfit Of a
beautiful, expensive silk attire was
complete, even to petticoat and hose.

Home Companion. The writer says:

Home Companion. The writer says:
THE chair was the sort of chair
into which one sinks and sinks until
every bump and hollow of ones an
atomy has been softly adjusted to
meet its curves. The firelight had
passed from Pickering into steady
glow. Sounds of music and youthful
voices and dancing feet came from
far away, and across the hearth in
the great wing chair sat the girl who
was woman and who mothered
Molly. Evidently she had the habit
of mothering. 1t was in her quiet
eyes, in her gentle ways. in her smile,
half laughing, half tender. And yet
