TIME work of the Red Cross. and espe-
l. cially of the Red Cross nurses, offers a
particularly inviting field for the efforts
of the story-teler. Two examples or this
are furnished In books published almost
simultaneously.
II is a woman's pen that gives the reader
view Of realities that confront the Red
Cross nurse in her humane and benefcent
work part OF which she was andi all OF
which she saw In the prolonged period she
spent near the fields of slaughter. while a
masculine author let's loose his Imagination
and inventive talent In peoping his story
with personages who are none the less en-
eaging because they had their birth onE
IN the writer's fancy.
II Is "A rare pleasure and truly an occa-

tasks of war nurse TO follow In the
printed page an American woman's expert

In French war hospital is depicted
with fidelity by Maud Mortimer In her
book which she has appropriately and poeti-
cally called "a Green Tent in Flanders"
Within the walls of that tent throughout
a long period this brave and humane
American woman lived life Of self-abnega-
ton, OF which no hint is suggested In the
words written in her diary (Which Is what
her book really is). but which ia apparent

Miss Mortimer's book Is full Of stories,
moving, Intensely human, often humorous
and just as surely pathetic; stories OF
wounded soldiers OF France: stories that
make Of these humble "pous" genuine war
heroes, real personal friends TO whom the
readers heart gees out. There is, beside.
some very excellent descriptive characteri-

TNHERE'S a reason! Paris is creeping

of the war Paris forgot she was Paris, as
far as clothes were concerned. The sec
ond and third years were about the same.
And now something has happened to
make her remember. Word has gone
forth that the hunt will be held. THE
hunt was one of the big events of
French society until the war began. Then
1t was prohibited This year for the first

AS the fall season merges into

ency toward the use of red in vari-
Gus shades. 1t is being extensively
used in the fashioning of after
noon frocks, in the making of coat
suits and separate coats. Some
very attractive evening costumes
and wraps are using this color.
The coat illustrated is of velour in
beet-root color, very fashionable

interesting.

CLOTHES have always fortified women.
~ There is something about the fierce
invincibility of a smart hat that makes
woman ready to go out and fight the
world. For a long time Paris, with
instructive longing for things beautiful,
has repressed herself gladly and willingly,
as it should have been. But this little
chance has come TO dress up just once
again.
Is it any wonder that in the midst Of
their marvellous war work French women
have stopped to take a peek in the
mirror?

AMONG THE SCOUTS.

A scout is a patriot and is always
ready to serve his country at a min.
ufe's notice. He loves Old Glory and
knows the proper forms of Offering il
respect. He never permits its folds
to touch the ground. He knows how
his country is governed and who are
the men in high authority. He desires
strong body, an alert mind and an
unconquerable spirit, so that he may
serve his country in any need. He pat
terms his life after those of great Amer
leans who have had high sense Of
duty and who have served the nation
well.
A scout, like an old frontiersman.
does not shout his wisdom from the
housetops. He possesses the quiet
power that comes from knowledge. He
speaks softly and answers questions
modest1y. He knows a braggart, but
he does not challenge him, allowing the
boaster to expose his ignorance by his
own looseswagging tongue.

EVANCELINE SUNDAY

The story of 1.-THE School for Hus
bands" has to do with Betty Man.
ners, the wife of John Manners
John is a frivolous young broker who
loves to gamble on the races and
have good time. His young wife,
feeling that she must economize,
goes around in most unbecoming and
inexpensive clothes. John becomes
infatuated with another woman and
loses his money in the stock ex-
change just as his wife discovers that
she is the heiress to a vast fortune.
Realizing that she is losing her hus-
band by her plain dress and "stay-at-
home" manner, she starts out to
win him back.
She first arrays herself in better
clothes and then, through an old
friend manages to arouse her hus-
bands jealousy. How the husband is
taught to look only toward his own
fireside, is brought about by many
clever and amusing situations.
Miss Ward is first seen in a rather
faded wrapper, eye glasses and her
hair brushed straight back, but later
appears in an array of gowns such as
she only can wear. For this produc-
ton Miss Ward selected from her
famous wardrobe some heretofore
unseen creations. Included in the
cast are Jack Dean, Frank Elliott,
Mabel van Buren,, and others.
In addition to this unusually fine
program Manager Loeb of the Opera
House will give each patron Free a
box of 'Bobs' the new and exquisite
peppermint, candy coated chewing
gum made by Fleer, and originator
of candy coated gum.
