SCHOOL NOTES

Friday morning Miss Bull read us Burns poem "Tam O. Shanter," after which Lenore Reese played the piano selec- tion of the same name.
 This week during assembly periods, Miss Bush has been reading us a number of letters from different members of the Smith College Relief Unit, that are doing reconstruction work in devastated French villages. These people are situated at Grecourt on the Sonme, and have sixteen villages under their supervision. They are re- building the homes, trying to revive the old industries, and endeavoring to make the child ren happy and contented again. They have been unable to re- build schools as yet, but they are getting small collections of books where the older people as we'll as the children can read them.
 The medical attendance was formerly done by the french ar my, but now these men and women of the Smith College are helping with this. All of these things are very interest ing and Miss Bush has been reading us how all of this work is being accomplished.
 We have an interesting ar ticle on gas-driven motors to be published next week.

RED CROSS SHIPS HELMETS

The Williams Red Cross chapter has completed a spe- cial order of helmets and ship ped them to Camp Funston, the shipment having been made on Monday. The order was for forty three of these articles and was filled in one weeks time. This speaks we'll for the indus try of the local knitters.
 The chapter is working con- tinuously on other articles and expects to ship a box of sweat CTS and surgical dressings to headquarters at San Francisco very soon.
 That this work can not be continued successfully without the hearty cooperation of every woman in town who can help, is again called to the attention of those who may feel it diff cult to spare the three hours which should be given each Wednesday and Friday after noon. Now that our Williams boys are actually on the fight ing line in France it seems more necessary than ever to provide for the comfort of the soldiers.
