CALL BRITISH TksS "LIMEYS"
American ejackets in European
Waters Have Nickname for
Everything They See.

London.-American bluejackets on
duty in European waters have a nick
name of their own for Englands sail
Ors and soldiers. They call them
'limeys;" the individual being known
as "lime." The American sailor men
apply the designation to all English
fighters just as the British refer to
their soldiers as "Tommies."
The sailor from the United States
has his nickname for nearly every
thing he sees. Bluejackets who had
served in the near and far East first
started calling British sailors and SOL
diers lime ULCERS" because Of their
fondness for fruit juice and charged
water
Now the designation has been short
cned down and everything British is
"limey." British soldiers and sailors
clubs are known rs ''limey clubs" and
British-brewed lager beer is commonly
spoken of as "limey beer"

GUIDES FOR IT'S SOLDIERS
Great Britain Carefully Provides for
the Men Home on Leave
From tho Front.

London.-Soldiers on leave from the
front In the early days Of the war had
the greatest difficulty In finding their
way about London and across 1t to
main line centers leading to their pro-
vincial homes, but this has oil been
altered, and what was once chaos at
Victoria station now works like any
part of the military machine.
This has been made possible by the
help of the volunteers of the National
Guard and by members of the Wom
ans Reserve Ambulance company, who
take charge Of the men on arrival,
change their French money into Eng
llsh, grant them loans and personally
conduct them to the various stations
they may require to travel from. The
same thing is done when leave Is up.
The soldier, used to discipline, likes
being handed on from one to another
rather than being left in strange
place to his own devices.

Of American sculptors who are going

They call these fellows plastic
sculptors. They replace the missing

TO AID FAMILIES OF U. s. FIGHTERS

that there is not the faintest shadow
/ Of charity In its usual meaning, ar
tached TO this work we are undertake
ing If there is want among the faml-
lies of our soldiers and sailors, 1t Is
not because they have been idle or
wasteful. or improvident, or that they
have been in anywise to blame. Rather
! it is because they have done the finest
I and the nOblest thing possible, and
/ have given to their country those to
. whom they have looked for support
and protection.
1--WE go to them, not az doing them a
charity, but as expressing our gatitude
to them for what they have done-aS
duty we owe to those whom they
have given to fight our battles. Look
little we can afford to permit any one
Of these to suffer because Of the noble
thing they have done"
Task Big One.
The officers of the Red Cross have
shown a large grasp Of the situation.
They realize the task that will be
theirs. This is shown in part of Mr..
Lies Pittsburgh talk, in which he said
that very soon there will be 100000
National Guardsmen in the field, and
that 'by January ] next 1t Is altogether
possible that there will be under arms
about 100000 men In all branches Of
the service.
I'VE must prepare for Il large task,
to be executed through the civilian re-
lief committee of the various Red
Cross chapters. These committees
should have carefully chosen members,
some, at least, of whom have expert
ence In social work"
1t is not merely as q feeding and
clothing agency that the Red Gross
proposes to act toward these depend
ents, as Mr.. Lies points out. but as a
sort of next friend" in all troubles
such as wages, insurance. difficulties
with landlords, illness, accident and
the moral welfare Of children.
1--WE would show ourselves unfit to
enjoy the blessings Of democracy" says
Mr. Lies, "if. while sending our SOL
dlers to the front to fight the enemy,
we permitted their families at home to
fight want, disease. and moral dangers
alone. 1t would look like willful pun
ishment for the sacrifices made by
them.
Only by getting close to them |
through friendly visitation, sympa-
thetic inquiry, neighborllness and intel |
ligent Interpretation Of home condi-
lions, can untOward factors be discov-
cred. The Red Cross Is in the field to
do just this kind of service In addition
to supplementary relief work, and 1t
wants TO do 1t as thoroughly as pos
sible"
1t is in this spirit then that the Red
Cross IS approaching the task of pro-
tecting the dependents left behind by
the fighting men. Backed by the Amer
lean people, there Is no room for doubt
as to how 1t will perform this task.

But then I am not dromedary, and

Now, who in the world could tell her
If 1t were going to rain next week or
not? 1t was something she couldn't

talking about it,

OF what possible use could it be to
her to know what Susie was doing?
None at all. But she talked that way.
So 1 decided it would be the way !

I had almost forgotten. One child |
