THERE'S \ WOMAN IN OUR TOWN
Who belongs to little club, and all
winter she put off taking her turn at
entertaining, on one excuse or an
other. Finally, the other members
began to talk about her-when she
was out of the room. When the close
of the season came she suggested that
| as 1t was so bliStering hot and nobody
wanted to play bridge any longer, she
believed she would not entertain the
CLUB but give the money it would re-
quire to the Red Cross The mem
bers sent up unanimous wall
which they had practiced in concert
Knowing that some such suggestion
would be likely to fall upon them
Not much you won't-you gotta take
your turn" they told her with more
emphasis than grammar And you
can give the same amount to the Red
ford it,
She did.
One Topeka girl, a friend of a
hopes-to- beam officer person, now at
Fort Riley. put in the best part
OF two days preparing him a
feast. She made three dozen
sandwiches of the very best variety
her training in domestic science and
a good full pocketbook could sug-
gest- She made enormous choco-
late cake that looked as light as a
feather and as big as the moon. 1t
had chocolate frosting on it two inches
thick. and should have been good for
a series of two weeks of tummy aches
for the soldier lad for whom it was
designed. 1t was packed and sent by
parcel post and insured Its value
might be reckoned about like this:
Flour; eggs, sugar, chocolate and
Illik 90
Filling for sandwiches. ...... 100
Two days labor. ....... 400
Gas -. 10

The shipment never reached its
destination. The distress of the girl
was nothing to the grief of the man.
Her own sorrows, she thought. could
be soothed by collecting the insurance
What amount of insurance did you
take out?" she was asked. We'll, it
L seemed like a good deal" she said,
but insured it for a dollar
