equip and run FIVE hostess houses at
Camp Upton, which is located at zap
hank. These will be after the same
general plan Of the hostess house at
Plat.sburg, which has proved to be
such a great success that, as Colonel
Wolfe, the commanding officer there
says, "The hostess house Immediately
proved a success in every sense OF the
word, and we could not do without 1t
for our men and their friends and
families" The Yaphank hostess
houses will be conducted along the
same lines, but will be built on much
larger scale" said Mrs. Bacon, "to
meet the greater needs Of so large
camp. One house will be for the Off
GERS and their friends and the others
for the enlisted men. General Bell
and Colonel Booth heartily indorse our
plans. and we have the strongest sup
port from the Y. N. c. A. and the local
relief organizations. The money is
steadily coming in, in amounts ranging
from 80 TO hundreds. This indicates

Hampstead is fully awake to the re-
sponsibility and danger Of having
great army camp on its borders. All
local societies Of every race and creed

Walter Frew is chairman, in looking
after the welfare of the soldiers. Inc

hospitality to the officers as well as
lhe enlisted men, many of the leading
women Of Hampstead, Mineola, West

A Coat That Draws Salary

The Russian sable coat owned by
Beatrice Allen, which plays promi-
nent part in "Furs and Frills" at the
Casino Theatre, is to go on salary.
Arthur Hammerstein will hereafter pay
500 week for wear and tear on the
garment. The coat was presented to
Miss Allen by her husband, John A.
Hoagland, who paid $4,000 for it.
The sable is worn and handled by
most of the principals in the play, and
Miss Allen figures that there will be
little left of it at the end of the sea-
son. Eight performances a week will
toss the coat around $50 times, which
is bound to have a damaging effect on
the fur. In the second act last night
1t gathered up chewing gum which
took twenty minutes to extricate. 1t
was this incident that caused Miss
Allen to demand weekly salary for
her coat in the future.
