the suggestion that the packet be tied
in khaki handkerchiefs. The red rib
ben to tie them will be a bright note,
but against the khaki, will not be so
conspicuous at distance. The men

handkerchief every particle of the
package can be put to use.

will not keen fresh from the time Of
packing until Christmas.
2. Dried fruit and other food pro
ducts should be packed in a small tin
or wooden boxes, one-uarter to one
half pound size
3. Hard candy including chocolate,
would probably be safe in tin foil or
heavy cardboard, but no soft choco-
lates nor anything that could possibly
be crushed should be used, as the
other contents Of the package might
be spoiled thereby.
4. Several dainties packed in OBJ
long tin boxes each holding a quarter
of a pound, will provide better va
riety for a packet than larger guam
tity of a single CONNECTION.
5. No liquids nor articles packed IN
glass shouldd be placed in the pack.
age.
6. For wrapping the gifts use a
khaki-colored handkerchief, twenty
seven inches square, and form the base
of the packet by placing on the center
of the handkerchief pad of wrapping
paper about seven by ten inches.
7. Select variety of articles either

to individual wishes) tn an amount
not exceeding $3.50, and arrange them
on the pad of paper so that the entire
package shall be the width of the pad
and approximately five or six inches

THE WOMAN WoH
WAITS

WAITS
The woman who waits for her mans
return
Is doing cher bit" for the flag;
With aching heart and fearful eyes
She is serving the Grand Old Rag"
Thru the long, long hours of darkest
night
She prays for the one who serves j;
Thru the daylight hours she strains
her sight
Scanning The lists, with tortured
nerves,
Of the wounded and killed in the
fight.
Oh, the woman who waits has the
hardest part
Of the struggle to down the Hun!
Hers be, the glory! the honor! the
praise!
When the final victory's won
The mar can die with a glad, free
hear;
He can lay down with will;
But the woman who waits must do
her part
When all the world is still.
Through the long dark hours she lies
awake
Praying to God for dear Christ's
sake:-
Grant to the Lord OF the Brave and
The final enduring victory.
"And oh, dear God, send back TO me,
Ger The storm-tossed waves of the
angry sea,
To the woman who waits send
back to me,
MY MANI"

LONDON, Eng, March S.-Chancel-

decided that the party, while retaining
its attitude toward the war-that it
remains firmly convinced of the justice
of the cause of the Entente group
feels bound to oppose the government
by all means in its power because OF
the governments adverse action to-
ward granting the party's demands in
Irish administration.
