Delegates representing more than
$4,000 women urged President Wilson
"to remodel our defences upon modern
democratic principles" in a resolution
adopted yesterday at the national con-
ference of the National Special AID
Society, 259 Fifth Avenue.
Universal military training for young
men was the solution Of the problem
suggested By the women, who prayed
the President "to recommend 20 the
Congress the immediate institution o,
such training, under the auspices OF
the Federal Government"
"The fundamentals Of our military
system enormously rest upon volun-
tary service, instead of upon the duty
20 defend the nation, which lies equa-
bly, upon the shoulders Of every citl-
zen able 10 bear arms the women de-
clared.
The conference Of delegates was

| HAUNT WAR MAP
ON PARIS AVENUE

PARIS. Aug. 15.-One Of the lasting
features of boulevard life is the great
map of northern France with its
marked battle lines and bGttleflelds,
which the newspaper Excelsior has
erected on the facade of the big office
building which occupies the site OF
he once famous Cafe Anglais- Dur
ing the recent French offensive and
the present German counter attacks
there have stood in front OF It, night
and day, groups of women clad in
unrelieved backbone with their
children, some with a brother or
husband, who wears on his coat
sleeve the sombre badge OF mourning.
To be able to see on so responsive a
thing as a map anything that even
family suggests the surroundings
where a loved one fell, seems to
AFFORD them some consolation.
"There-the Chemin des Danes"
whispers q woman; and her compan-
ions, hushed and silent, gaze at the
tiny dot and name that shows them
the spot where they were bereaved-
So intent and absorbed are they one

to visualize -he swirl Of deaths tor
rent that so lately robbed them OF
one they held most dear.

OF NELLIE, THELOST
Has anyone lost a perfectly goOt

Has anyone lost a perfectly good
collie pupI
Such q pup is enjoying a very fine
vacation down at the Animal Rescue
League, Maryland avenue and Four
snd-a-half street, and would like his
folks to get In touch with him.
II, on the other hand, no one has
lost one, but would like one, and can
prove that he is a suitable person to
adopt such an animal, he also may
ind him at the Animal Rescue
League.
All this about the collie pup Is
really very old news. He was found
on Fourteenth street near the New
Ebbitt on Wednesday of last week
weak, tired, and nursing q lame paw.
Now the reporter who found him
thought he looked like the sort of
dog which would like to go swim
ming and fishing with a small boy.
She was afraid maybe there was a
small boy in the case, and that said
small boy would cry himself to sleep
that night because Of the sudden and
unexplained absence OF q certain
collie chum.
Bad Day For Dispositions.
The folks at that part of Four
teenth street were tired OF the dogs
crying, and, as it was a very hot day.
had telephoned to the pound officials
to come and end its young career.
The reporter thought this would
never do-especially considering the
possibility Of the small boy.
So she put him into q perfectly
good taxicab and took him down to
the new quarters of the Animal Res
cue League. There they treated the
collie like a long-lost friend, ad-
dressed IL as Nellie, gave it some
milk and mush, and assigned 1t to a
very nice yard, where other waits of
the canine world were rompirg about.
That was one week ago.

Today the reporter remembered. So
she called the league. She found
that Nellie is doing nicely. But Nellie
Is still in need of a home.

his country on the border?
This baker-and he is just as good
baker as the army turns QUITS in the
same fix today as 15O other men who gave
I'D good Jobs on June IS last when their
country needed them.
Today they are Quartered at Fort Myer'
but in about two weeks they will be dis
charged from active duty and VIII nave
to look about for Jobs.
Every man OF them-bakers, black
smiths, clerks, etc--must have a Job just
as soon as they are discharged. Most of
them have no money and no winter civil
ian clothing for a man can't save from
the pay Of a Guardsman.
A campaign has been started to get po-
sitions for these men, because the city

The Military Service Legion, the Board
of Trade, and The Washington Herald
are working together in this campaign
to get a place for every man.
The Service Legion representatives have
compiled list of all the men who will
need work and are bringing the cases OF
these men to the attention Of employers

fight FOR TOY TRADE
Will Come With Peace
Germany to Attempt Recovery of Busi'
ness Secured by This Country.

One Of the outstanding features Of the
trade struggle that is to follow the Euro
pean war win be the attempt of Germany
to regain supremacy In the toy industry.
Since the war started America has de-
veloped her toy industry by leaps and
bounds until now she holds first place.
1t has been emphasized at German trade
conferences. according to Consul General
Julius G. Lay, at Berlin, that the Teutons
will be at a disadvantage after the war
for two reasons-because in the meantime
the American industry will have built IT.
self up materially, and because German
manufacturers will be compelled to ask
higher prices than formerly on account Of
local conditions.
But certain German toy manufacturers
maintain that the American trade can be
regained. They say that the stock of toys
on hand in the United States after the
war will be inadequate and that the repu-
tation and standard Of the German prod
uct are so well known that they will be
IN big demand.
Before the war the United States was
Germany's largest customer in the pur-
chase of toys. third or more of all the
German toys exported were sent to the
American market. In 1918 the United
States purchased from Germany 1853
metric tons of children's toys and Christ
mas-tree ornaments.
