Word From Home.

Miles City, Dec. 1.-The "sodmothcr'
movement in Miles City has been a
success. Local women have agreed to
write at least once week to their
"godsons" in tie army. The organiza-
ton was started by Miss Margaret
She'll who has gone to the coast for
the winter and left the work in the
hands of Mrs ~ Fl. Fuller. The names
of the 203 drafted men who left here
and of all the other local boys who
are in the army. were placed in Il bowl
Each member of the organization was
permitted to draw out as many names
as she wished, being Obliged to write
to each soldier at least once a week.
The soldiers are expected to answer
these letters. The women have not
only faithfully written to the boys in
the army. but have received letters in
reply.
Steps are in contemplation to cX
tend the movement to other cities of
the state in an effort to keep the
soldier boys of Montana in the best of
spirits, thereby increasing their eff
cheney as part Of Americas big war
machine.

the truth, the whole truth and moth

that2 Seems as if somebody was knit ting, doesn't ita In our own experience, here in Birmingham, there has never been anything like the increase in the demand for wools, yarns and needles. It is nothing to marvel at now, for Love man. Joseph & Loeb to send in an order for 15OO pounds of wool or 250O pounds; in fact, we will average 10000 pounds of wool within the next few months"
 When l was in New York I went to the headquarters of the Navy league just to see how many people were work ing there, and the style of their work and all about it." said Mrs. Barnard. T was greatly impressed with the large numbers of women knitting for the sailor-soldiers; every woman who can spare an hour in busy New York seems to give it to some sort of war work, and most of the work is knitting. Of course, there are a lot of women who knit merely for themselves pretty sweaters and caps and things of that sort others do it just so they can carry one of the attractive knitting bags around with them because it is the fash ion but on the whole, they are doing ir for substantial reasons, for our boys who OAA N@NGa-A NSN~~ our country
 "Old-fashioned knitters are most in demand now" Mrs. Barnard said "A very old woman came in to see me the other day she must have been 80 and said she wanted to learn some new stitches; I asked her if she could knit at all. She replied that when she was 13 years old she knitted pair of socks. I told her if she knitted a pair of socks eta hot I In her anything now, for, while 80 years perhaps had passed since then there isn't a new stitch that has been added to knitting since she was a girl, and anybody who can knit a pair of socks can knit anything on earth, because they are the most difficult things to knit"
 AS a pastime, knitting is a delightful occupation" Mrs. Barnard said. "As 1t isn't hard on the eyes and it is easy to do Of course, the artist finds the great est inspiration in knitting in the combi- nation of colors, which are simply beau tiful in the various kinds of yarns and wools Some exquisite effects can be made, and it is very entertaining to work out the various color combinations. I don't know what women would do now if it were not for knitting; it is said to be the finest thing in the world for nerv- ousness; 1t occupies the mind and takes ore's thoughts away from disagreeable subjects and furnishes amusement and entertainment whether at home or abroad. In New York saw women knitting in the foyers of the hotels-the most fashionable hotels; I saw them in the restaurants knitting; at the theatres; in the street cars and busses and when I got on the train to come back home every woman on the train got out her knitting bag and knitted for dear life the whole way!'
