number of the women present partici-

of living. These recipes were copied
by the women, and will be used by
them.
The recipes called for most econ

That the English soldiers are Won
derful heroes and fighters is due to the
bravery Of the mothers of England,
was the tribute paid to the women Of
the British empire by Mrs. William
Mac Gowan in her talk at the member
ship tea at the Y. W. G.. A. yesterday
afternoon Mrs. Mac Gowan has but
recently returned from England, and
her talk was timely and of interest to
the many women who were present.
The English soldiers mother is
brave. She does not show her grief ex-
cept by not smiling. This is the only
outward mark Of her sorrow. She is
brave and determined and patriotic.
Mrs. Mac Gowan said. and only in the
fact that she seldom smiles Is their
any betrayal OF her heaviness of heart.
A tribute was paid by the speaker
to the work Of the militant suffragists.
Instead Of combating the government,
thew have put their militancy to work
for the government. They ferret out
men who are keeping off from the fir
ing line, pleading that they are serv-
ing their country in Industrial capacity
and if they find the work can be done
by women. they so report it to the gov
eminent, with the result frequently
that the man is sent to the front. 1t
was due to these women that recent
army scandal Involving a woman was
aired.
Belglans Grateful.
Mrs. Mac Gowan spoke, too, of the
hospitals she had visited. She describ-
ed the visit Of Zeppelin, and told
how great havoc was wrought in the
bombs showered on a town. She spoke
Of having met young Belgian on ship
board who expressed his gratefulness
at Americas part in feeding the Bel
CLANS, and who told her that tales of
atrocities were not colored.
In the churches in England there are
signs asking worshippers to pray for
the boys at the front, and also to pray
for the enemy soldiers. This she
thought showed a wonderful spirit.
