Women were doing new things, thinking in new terms and devoting every effort to make life pleasanter and more home like for our boys. who are in train ing She said that at. Plattsburg, the problem presented itself, the lack of home influences for the soldiers, but women soon rallied, for the var de- pertinent in Washington turned to the women of America and asked them what they were going to do to help with the problem. they took the mon ey and set about the task of orBaniz- ing and erecting a hostess house at Plattsburg. the first. There are now fifty-five hostess houses at the differ ent cantonments and forty-three under construction. From coast to coast these havens of rest extend to give cheer and hospitality and comfort to the homesick soldiers and extend a welcome to the mothers and relatives of the boys, that come to pay them a visit before they go overseRs.

A great amount of Information is proffered each day to foreign wo- men, for a great many of them feel belligerent from lack of understand ing. Often weddings are staged in this homelike environment.
 General Bell, eI-President Taft and other notables have expressed their delight in these hostess houses. That the women fin charge may be sure of their sincere sympathy and help. Ana
