Side Remarks on Red
Cross Work Among the
Refugees in France

One of the American Red Cross
workers has found time to sketch a
few of the scenes and experiences that
are part of her everyday conscious
ness in France. She writes:
Il went from Paris to Troyes
where there are great numbers of
refugees-about 7,000-and it was
there that | had my first experience
with them. There was young Amer
lean there with whom served my
apprenticeship. He was doing his
monthly collecting for furniture. etc,
which is sold on the installment plan,
and regular collections are made for
the money. l thought it was going to
be a horrid job and that people
wouldn't want to let us in. but | found
myself quite mistaken. We were re-
ceived everywhere with smiles of Joy
the money was practically always
forthcoming and the visits were not
at all affairs of business but pleasant
social meetings.
-Four little refugee children whom
I stumbled upon by accident yesterday
are peering in at the open window. |
found them in an ancient chateau.
The place was den of dirt with no
mattresses on the iron cot where a
young baby lay asleep. The room
contained two such cots, covered with
rags, tiny stove, broken chair, an

saw one blanket. The children slept
on the floor. How did they ever get
through the winter? They came from
Rheims and underwent 81 lombard
ments before coming here, and think
of the little girl running after me to
give me a Towering wall-hower in tin
can, the only pretty thing she had.
These children are sitting by me as
| write-eating chocolate.
Il must tell you of another tragic
family | came upon two days ago.
They were in squalid stone hut by
the roadside The woman. who told
me she had no other clothes than
those she wore. had varicose veins
which she showed me. in Difference to

do not often correct this misconcep-
ton, as I find myself listened to very
respectfully when | suggest air and
sunshine, and have actually had peo-
pie get up and open a window at my
suggestion-a great achievement IN
France. The woman told me that her
husband was mobilzed and her eldest
son a prisoner. One of the boys, a
little chap of 4 or 5, was going blind,
and held his head down all the time.
Another little fellow Of II, think,
looking g. scarcely had strength to
stand upright, and lay across bicycle
which stood against the wall. He

Plebeian Vegetables Rise to Heights
AristOcratic These Preserving Davs

Now is the time for picking and
preserving. Various kinds of fruits
and vegetables for these purposes
are on the local markets. Jelly grapes
sell from $l.00 to $l.25 a market bas-
ket. Crab apples cost about the same,
Tomatoes Of very nice quality cost
from 90 to Is cents market basket,
Quite a difference from three years
ago when we were selling them at
10 cents a basket this time Of year"
remarked market man.
Picking gherkins. small pickles. sell
at about $500 for a market basket.
Little onions for picking purposes
cost 50 to 90 cents for an ordinary
grape basketful. Large cucumbers
sell at S and 10 cents each.
The turnip. long considered a most
plebeian vegetable, has mounted to
aristocratic heights in price. at least,
selling around 10 cents bunch"
weighing about -fourths of
pound. The dry, hot weather is said
to have worked havoc with the tur-
nip crop,
Sweet potatoes are of very good
quality and sell at s to 10 cents a
pound. The ordinary potatoes sell
from 40 to so cents a peck.
One of the most economical fruits
nowadays is the California grape,
which sells at 10 to 12H cents pound
But the market men say there is lit
tie demand for them, though they are
sweet, succulent and nutritious. Con
cord grapes are fairly plentiful around
25 to 80 cents basket. Plums, pears

do you believe in Petticoatse
Aye, and aye and ever did.
IT'S Petticoats that rule the world
As seen, or erstwhile hid"
and speaking of Petticoats! Have
you seen the newest ones displayed
in the shops? Well, then, you sure
ly have something pleasant to look
forward to; for never have Petticoat
styles been so varied and interest
ing,
When I was in one of our stores,
the other day, | was led down ver-
liable Petticoat Lane-there were pet
ticoats to the right of me!-petticoats
to left of me!-such a bewildering
array of petticoats, that my brain
fairly reeled with the flashes of gay
color-and bewildering not only from
the standpoint of color, but from that
of design also. For though Madame
La Mode has decreed that suits and
dresses for fall must be of sombre
hues, and simple lines, she simply
couldn't resist being frivolous when
it came to pettlcoats.
Fringe is the latest adotnment to
these underthings, and when you sec
how fascinatingly decorative it is,
we cannot fail to know why Hiawatha
fell for the charms of Minnehaha-
his heart simply got all tangled up
in that fringe trimming on her leath-
er gown.
Some of the "petties" I saw were
finished with round, or pointed seal
lops, edged with fringe trimming,
On a very beautiful one an embroi-
dered flower embellished the centre
of each scallop.
Changeable silk has been used to
produce some very lovely petticoats;
one noted in blended shades of blue
and gold reminded me of a sunset
on a summer evening.
Wool embroidered posies; huge
roses, and conventionalized daisies
added charming effect to some pet
ticoats of silk jersey, taffeta and sat
in. Petticoats such as these are not
born to blush unseen" 1t was really
intended that they should faunt their
prettiness at the breakfast table ac-
companied by dainty negligee jacket
Large coin dots of shamrock green,
added a note of gayety to petit
coat of navy blue satin. Accordion
pleated ruffles with insets of bright
Roman striped silk are a new idea
in the petticoat world.
In fact if that old poet who sang
about the winning wave, the deserv-
ing note in the petticoat," could have
observed these beauties" he might
have written a poem really worth
reading.

And the Stage and Movie actors have gone
off to do their share.
No Tragedy just like it has been produced

No off-stage cans and drums make up this

They're all male leads and Juveniles, these

Old men and leading ladies now are

There heroes by the dozen and each one
is a star,
For extras and directors over there are
on par;
The scenery and settings are realistic

And every acts a thriller, with a rough

They are going in their numbers from the
Movies and the Stage,
And to dramatic history are adding a new
