She Knew What to Take.

Five-year-eld Mary, who is always anxious to be in everything that goes on, lives In small town where the lopg-suffering minister still endures do- nation parties, to make up his back salary. Just before the last one she begged eagerly:
 Cant I take something. too, muv- ver?'
 NO: your father and l take some thing, that will be plenty"
 But the child could not bear to give up the idea. so she ransaeked the whole house for something suitable. Finally she appeared before her mother with worn and faded dress of her own.

Designers of apparel for stout wom- en are confronted with two problems; one, to make accepted styles becoming to full figures and the other to create styles exclusively for them. The first problem takes most of their time and thought, for all women like to dress in the mode. and the peryerse modes con tinue to be designed for the slimness of youth. But specialists are doing more than their bit toward making life happy for women whose figures have rounded out 10 the fullness of matron- hood

Further back of the line there are evacuation hospitals each designed to receive the wounded from three field hospitals.

The American Red Cross is organ izing 30 base hospitals and preparing the equipment, supplies and personnel for them. The magnitude of this un- dertaking can be glimpsed when we consider that each unit has 23 sur geons, two dentists, 50 graduate nurses with assistants and attendants making up 25o persons for the 90 units, 7,5o0 persons, trained to care for the wounded.
 Besides the permanent equipment of these hospitals with the most modern appliances for the care of the sick and for surgical cases, 1t is necessary 10 provide great numbers of articles that are quickly consumed by q hos pital in service. such as bandages, splints. pads. drains, garments worn by the wounded and all sorts of surg icaI dressings. These are called con sumable hospital supplies and these are the things that women are mak- ing and will continue to make while war lasts. Every woman can help In this work in some way. Not to Go something is a confession of indif- ference or of cold-hearted lack of sympathy or of selfishness-a betrayal of cheap character that dishonors womanhood.
 But indifference often springs from lack of knowledge and not from cold ness of heart. Red Cross headquar- ters have been deluged with letters from women all over the country, of fering to help in any way they can. For their benefit one of the important chapters of the Red Cross has issued a circular of information concerning the work of base hospitals and in it vivid picture is painted of the ex- periences of the wounded soldier from the time he falls until he reaches q base hospital.
