SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30.-If the

army service is upheld by the dis
trict draft board here, he might as
well quit as boxing Instructor at

der General FoltZ, commanding

recently denied Ritchie's claim Of
exemption today received a letter
from General Foltz congratulating it
on its action.

more eagerly from one of their

who when the time comes, will stand
with them in the trenches and go
with them over the top. I should
not want Steffens to continue his
work. as boxing instructor if he is
exempted for that purpose. His in
f1uence would be gone and he would
be of no use among u.s."

HELD LAST NIGHT
Continued from page 81

We had hoped to wipe out this entire
Indebtedness, but owing to the quar-
antine which has put the lid on so
many activities, We thought best to
wait until later as the proposed enter
tainment includes people of all ages.
The council is planning to enlarge
its membership in the near future so
as to get in closer touch with all the,
girls of the association and to more
fully develop the social, physical, edu-
ca tional and spiritual side of the work.
AS was remarked by one OF the
council members at the regular meet
ing last night, we have such good
times at our meetings, it is too bad
every girl in the city cannot belong to
this council. and the enlarged club will
give them this opportunity.

GREAT ARMADA
Seventeen Big Transports, Guarded
by Numerous BattIeships,
Made Trip Across
Ocean.

United Press Leased Wire Seryice.1
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-The heart
CT America thrilled today with the
news that the greatest armada in
her history-seyenteen huge trans.
ports-had arrived safely at French
ports with thousands of officers, SOL
diers and supplies to battle the kais
er.
Stealing out of American ports the
last two weeks, the veSselS-formerly
the best in the AuStro-German mer-
chant marines-delivered their. prec-
ious cargo on the European sofl IN
touched by spies and unobserved by
the watchful eyes of submarines.
Protecting them on their voyage
were many men of war-fleet gray
monsters-who swept through the
waves, grim warning that their trans
port charges were to be delivered I'M
harmed.
The size of the convoy cannot be
published, but it may be stated that
it was such as to furnish ample pro-
lection for such a tremendous re-
sponsibility.
Aboard the transports were thou.
sands of young men-officers for
training, Sammies for service. doc
tors, nurses and skilled workmen.
From all parts of the country they
had been secretly assembled at differ
ent embarking points along the sea-
board. None knew before he left even
what vessel he would board-only
that he was to be at a given place at
given hour, prepared for long
journey.
After the noses of the great vessels
poked their way out of port into the
ocean mists the curtain of censorship
drops down over their voyage. Wheth-
er they all met at sea, forming one
great movement, the war department
will not reveal.
The maneuvering of transports
which already have landed nearly
half a million of Americas fighting
forces in France without loss, is suffi-
cient unto itself the navy believes.
Today thousands OF American
homes, knowing their boys had left
last week, are rejoicing at the news Of
their safe arrival.

Report Of Geneva Club.

The Geneva club has membership
of twenty-five, consisting of girls who
have attended the Y. w. {. A. confer
ence at Lake Geneva.
The regular monthly meetings Of the
Geneva club were held the second
Tuesday OF each month with supper, in
the girls club room until October g.,
when it was decided to have cafe
terra supper in the private dining room
which plan is very agreeable as it les
sens the work of having to plan a ten
or fifteen cent supper for an unknown
number
At the January meeting we had Miss
Mary Collins as our guest and gave us
a very interesting talk on her work
among the Indians. We wish that we
might have her as our guest again
soon.
In February we helped serve refresh
ments at a Colonial party given by
Miss Georges gymnasium class.
During March and April we were
busy as We assumed the responsible
ity of the musical ''Fifi'' given at the
Grand opera house in May, which net
ted us $4,000.
Our next undertaking was to find
four delegates to be sent to Lake
Geneva conference in August as we de-
cided to assist four delegates in the
amount of $4,000 each toward their ex-
pense and to give $500 to the Y. NJ. G.
A work at the camps and $500 TO the
Red Cross work.
Miss y. Phillips, Miss NJ. Slack, Miss
Florence Brown and Miss Leila Devero
were elected as the delegates who to-
gether with Miss Martha Hornish,
Miss Mary Halle Aloertson and Miss
Isabelle Herbert formed one happy
family at tent on the lake front The
benefit derived at these conferences
can hardly be expressed. They are
just felt. Our only regret was that
so many missed it and it is our chief
desire this year to have more enjoy 1t.
Do you know of any one who wishes
to go this year? II so please notify
US at once. We believe that members
of our board would enjoy it immensely
and we would enjoy them too.
In October we held election OF Off
GERS which resulted as follows: Miss
Herbert, president; Miss Wyllie, vice
president; Miss Florence Brown, sec
rotary; Miss Slack treasurer. Miss
Brown was unable to serve as secre-
tary. Miss Jackson was elected Sec
Rotary in her place.

here in November was our mission
teacher and it might we'll be said OF
her that to know her was to love her
