leisure hours on the
Summer porch.
And you know there's
an extra hour of day
light now. Tack it on to
the afternoon or to the
early evening, as you
please-it's sure to be
put to good purpose and
to mean more sweaters
for soldiers, more dain-
ty things Cor the home
made at home, more of
the pretty furnishings
for the bridal chest
wrought by the brides
own fingers, more we'd
ding presents, even
gifts for next Christ
mas, which will repre-
sent the loving skill of
someone.
That extra hour Of
evening light will be a
great thing for the
woman who throws her
energies all day into
Red Cross or other war
work, or into garden
ing or canning. With
out prick of conscience
she can sit and rest and
rock on the porch, when
her days toll is done,
and-being a woman
she will look about for
something to do with
her hands, like the
farmers wife, who,
when asked if she never
rested, answered:
"Oh, yes, l rests, and
while l rests l peels a
few apples"
A S she looks about
IA her, here she will
find no end of interest
ing novelties.
Even in these bits of
so-called fancy needle
work is struck the pre-
vailing note of this
stern hour: efficiency
worth-whileness.
Gone are the days
when only grandmoth-
ers knew the use of
knitting-needles. Th e
mysteries of the knit
ting-needle, whatever
they were, have all been
solved and reduced to
simple terms by the call
for warm knitted things
for our soldier boys.
Everybody is knitting
her bit" even the tiny
school-maid. A mighty
knitting corps W a S
formed spontaneously
the minute the war
commenced.

ARMY OFFICERS WIVES
WORKING FOR RED CROSS

Wives of army officers are setting
the pace In providing comforts for the
soldiers. At the various United States
army posts they are knitting assidu-

with Red Cross supplies in order to
give every man who goes out from
the forts complete sets Of knitted gar
ments. In addition, they are turning
out vast quantities of surgical supplies
for the Red Cross.
At Fort Jay, Governors Island, a
Red Cross auxiliary meets every
Thursday at the commandments resi-
dence. The group, composed of a
score of women, spend the day making
congresses, folding bandages or roll

"Shoes that Danced" a typical
drama of life on the lower East Side
of the great metropolis with Pauline
Starke in the stellar role will be seen
at the Plaza the first half of the week.
Here's a play that will please all

mirably mixed that the entertain
ment continues at it's height until the
final climax.
The vaudeville headliner is a dane

who are exceedingly nimble and
graceful opponents of the terpsichor-
can art.
The International Four is a sing
ing and instrumental quartet with a
local boy among them. Here's an
other real offering that will unques
tionably strike 4 popular chord with
local music lovers.

old fort on the hill, overlooking town
very close to the front, where the Red
Cross takes care of them. The cathe-

though you could hardly hear it for
the roar Of the guns, and the siren
had blown. Then the people in the
