have any men cooks put over on them.
Another officer was showing US through
the camp, when we came upon a girl

asked her what she was going 10 do
with the crumbs of meat that were
falling on the tray. Throw them in

them together with the carving knife.
The officer went up in the air. You
would have thought he was the inventor
of the system for economy in camp
cooking. At the end Of ten minutes
the rest of the party left him, and
when we moved on he was still order
ing that the girl be disciplined and not
allowed 20 entertain such thoughts OF
extravaganza.
This story has a moral-or perhaps
an American angle, TO be more tech
nical in the use Of terms. A few days

In the Matter Of
Social Equality

The country need not concern itself
about the officers and men at Camp
Jackson. They come Of lighting stock.
Major General Charles j. Bailey had
just returned from the Philippines,
where he had been commanding general
for some time, missing a chance TO 20
20 France by the i'll behavior Of ty-
phoon. On his staff was Major Adna
X. Chaffee. soldierly son of soldier
sire. But the first and second lieuten-
ants and most Of the captains were
from these nearby Southern States, and
were fresh from the training camp At
Fort Oglothorpc and eager to get across
to France at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The men in the ranks are their
ncighbors and friends and kinsmen
aud college classmates, with familiar
names and family records. some Of
which are already memorable in war
and peace. The only sign OF discon-
tent found among the men was just
little resentment at the necessary So
cial distinctions between officers and
enlisted men who knew each other "be-
fore the war
And the people Of Columbia, near
by. in their all-including patriotism,
were a little inclined TO the same re-
sentiment. They have opened their
houses to the officers with families and
two cases were related to me showing
where the line should or should not be
drawn. In one case, an officer refused
20 sit at the table with the nephew Of

Il was suggested that the officer seek
other quarters. In the other case, an
officer rightly objected to having a
private regularly invited to his table,

equality. and was sustained in his

man. she contributed nothing Of the
foregoing narrative or criticism.

from carving with a knife. With every

the carving board and eventually went
to the garbage pail. Now that the
women have introduced machines for
carving, not an atom Of the joint is

bones have TO be taken from the roast

hers went round TO the men cooks for

All the while Miss Barker and her
ally were imploring the officials con-
trolling the army 10 allow women TO do
this work. The men made some such
reply as that Miss Barker's sex were
merely poor. weak women, who could
not cook for an army. inasmuch as they
had never had any experience outside

Although you might not guess it thus
far, this is the account Of how women
arc cooking for the British army. The
Women's Army Auxiliary Corps has
taken over Devonshire House. Girl
stenographers and girl clerks skim
down that wide staircase of marble
tina. the duchess used TO descend as
she welded her feathered fan. The

The vase that stands nine feet high
in the outer hall is boarded up. You
would not know, without the house
keepers telling you, what the crude
construction concealed. The girls have
driven nails in the boarding and they
hang their Khaki overcoats on them.

economic account. As reward for
this service aud in answer to earnest,
suppliant appeals that they be al
lowed to cook for the army, the gov
ornment at length allowed them places
in the camp kitchens in England. Very
recently the Minister Of War was
struck by the idea that every woman
in q camp kitchen meant a private re
leased for the trenches. SO he said,
"Lct tho women go into the field kitch-
ems. and let the men who have been
cooking go out and fight" Since that day
women cooks have been going over to
France in legions. and report has it
that their work is highly satisfactory.
