To Baltimore BY Trucks.

Five big trucks of the Goodyear
Akron Boston Express Line, which
had been sent to Chicago, arrived in
Baltimore Monday night loaded with
Is tons of Red Cross supplies and
field kitchen trailer. These supplies
had been sent to Chicago from many
points over the Middle West and
shipped to Baltimore for shipment
overseas. The run from Chicago to
to Baltimore was made in 100 hours,
the mileage being about $50. The
Lincoln Highway was followed from
Chicago to Chambersburg, Pa, when
a cut over to Hagerstown, Nd, was
made and the remainder of the trip
made by the State road through
Frederick to Baltimore. The trucks
ran continuously, each having two
drivers, who worked in six hour
shifts, one sleeping while the other
worked.

ROMANCE GONE
Efficiency Kills Sentiment as
Machine Makes Socks
in Is Minutes.
BY RUTH DUNBAR.

"How snowy white your fingers look
against the scarlet woOl| was the
favorite speech of grandfather when
he was paying suit to grandmother,
who, If history Is correct, never al
lowed little things like love and court
ship to distract her mind one minute
from her knitting.
The modern young man is robbed of
any opportunity to make these pretty
speeches, for the wool Is no longer
scarlet but khaki. Worse yet, the
maiden sits before cold, steel ma.
chine and grinds off socks in as many
minutes as it takes hours to knit them.
This is what efficiency does to ro-
nance.
In the various Red Cross workroOmS
of the New York County Chapter there
are nearly seventy-tive sock machines.
Eight of these are in the model work
room at 20 East Thirty eighth street and
others that have been ordered are held
up by traffic conditions. Here instruc-
tors teach tie use of the machine to
Red Cross workers.
A complete pair of socks can be
made on the machine in 20 minutes.
The machine looks like cross between
fishing tackle and pile driver. The
worker threads it through the arm and
carrier on to the threader The body
of the machine is a circle of needles
bent at the ends like crochet hooks
Sweaters also are made on tlfe sock
machine, the strips sewed together and
the ribbing at top and bottom knitted
on by hand.
Besides the machines In the Red
Cross wolkroons there are many
owned by private individuals or groups
who work at home and donate the re-
suits to the Red Cross. In a family
hotel for instance. four or five women
can club together and buy q machine.

WHAT HOME SERVICE

My husband enlisted over a year
ago. Shortly after he went away our
twelve-year-old boy had the measles.
After his recovery his school teacher
complained about his conduct. At
home he was nervous and irritable.
When called at the Red Cross to find
out how | could secure an increaS% in
allowance because of our newly born
babe told them of my trouble with
Harry. On their advice took him to
an oculist, who said glasses were need
