MILITARY DON'TS AND
 WHY'S FOR WOMEN

Men can not win this war without ihe help of women:
 Don't confirm these old islanders: Women talk 100 much: Women can't keep a secret.
 Don't pass along any information that your men folk may carelessly or .trustfully pass along 10 you. Don't fail to report to the nearest officer disloyal or suspicious remarks or behavior on the part Of anybody. native or foreign.
 Don't forget that some Of tn emost dangerous enemies ot the country in time Of war are native Americans Of the grates. sincerity.
 Don't forget that this war will end 10 our advantage only when its ends with victory.
 Don't get discouraged. \ short war and hasty peace may cost another war and greater loss of lives than cleanllG up SAlis Wal
 Don't let jealousy .: other women whose men gez 10 the front or are kept a. home make you suspicious of mo tiyes or influences. The organiza- tions and individuals are all parts Of acompiicated machine: each cog must if in ::s place and more when needed.
 Don't accuse the stay-at-homes Of base motives. Many Of them are more eager 10 be abroad than some that are there. The successes os the men in France depends on the energy of the men al home For every man in a trenci a great many men are needed in the rear. or the fighting line will fail ct ammunition. food, supplies, funds. equipment. and endorsements.
 Don't forget that cynicism and sar- casn are the cheapest things or earth. but may prove deadly iu their result.
 Don't forget that i, is treason to give aid and comfort 10 the enemy. So,hing comforts the enemy more than she feeling that war is unpopular @.

Tho Dolly Sisters-The Dolly SIS
ters, queens of dance and stars OF mu-

but America has been their home since
they were eight years old. When at
tending the kindergarten in their ma
tive land they picked up the dances
of the gypsies and the peasants. When
they came to New York their dancing
was so far improved that they were
advised to go on the stage. Wneh
nine years old they made their stase
debut, but not in New York There
the Gerry Society frowned on the
public appearance of children. So, for
seven years the Dollies danced in the
west, in Havana and South America.
On the New York Roof Garden, in
summer review eight years ago. they
made their New York debut. and New
York has admired them SO much that,
in the past eight years they have only
been away from Broadway one year.
Not content with seeing them as head
liners in vaudeville or as features IN
musical shows, they have been tempt
ed to display their art in midnight re-
views and at no end Of social func-
tions. During the past three years
there have been few, II any. fmpor-
tant charity or benefit performances
in New York in which the Dollies
have not taken part.
