That Christmas List
BY Reinette IIovewell
OF the Vigilantes.

Christmas is coming right along.
Gifts for the folks we love? OF
course. But not jewelry-store things
not the presents we sent out in the
days when Peace on the Earth did
not seem like q CHASTITY mockery.
Not this year with our own boys in
France and 100000 more OF them in
bleak environments here in the United
States.
It is going to be a soldiers Christ
mas, this December of 1917. There's
no two ways about 1t. The boys in
uniform come first, even If the kid
dies have to get along without toys
in their stockings.
But it isn't going to mean that our
friends will not be "remembered"-
not If we send the soldiers gift in
the name Of each one on our list
1t will be a simple matter to slip
into the soldiers package a card with
the name of someone to whom we
had planned to send a gift on Christ
mas day; it will only take a. moment
to address another card with the
same name telling our friend Just
what we have done.
For the boys at the French front,
boys like those who have already
fought for us, and died for us, in
hand to-hand struggle with Huns,
1t is now too late. December first is
the last call for gifts for the camps
in this country.
The American Red Cross has ar
ranged to send packages made up at
headquarters for S1.25 and checks for
these should be mailed to $50 Fifth
avenue, New York city.
For those who send their own
nncign osau HfPanf Fhnwa awn

big letters where it. viii be plainly
seen-not tucked off in a corner in
your finest handwriting.
Also write AMERICAN EXPEDI-
TIONARY FORCES" in the same
conspicuous handwriting.
Write sender's name and address
in upper left hand corner Of package.
Use ink-whatever you do.
The Red Cross makes some prac-
tical suggestions as to wrapping and
tying. The chapters have on hand a
khaki -colored handkerchief, q inches
square which is the best ever to use
for a container for other gifts. And
the festive touch need not be lack
Ing, for the handkerchiefs may be
wrapped again in heavy Manila
paper and-cheer up girIs-bound
with one-inch red ribbon and decor
ated with just as many seals as any
body wants to use.

WASHINGTON. D. (, June 9 Administration leaders both n con gress and in government official cir cIes are expressing considerable con cern over the purchasing of large quantities of grain supplies in this country by neutral countries conugu- ous to Germany. As consequence, the passage immediately ol mca- sure by congress, restricting exports, is now being urged.
 II Is expected that the export re striction provision will be incorporat- ed in the administration shipping bill that is now before the senate. l. was intended that a final vote on the bill should b. taken today but the voting was delayed on ac. count of thc absence Of quorum to do business. A a consequence the bill may yet be amended so as To contain the export restriction item.
 The measure was severely criti- ciscd today in the senate on the ground tha, it does not adequately protect shippers.
