Redeeming mans discarded shirts
and making babies dresses, like those
worn by the .kiddies in this photo
from them, is the novel idea of Mrs
A. D. Gilmore, and she is devoting q
great deal of her time to this work
She has organized club of her own,
and has volunteered to act as instruct.
or of similar clubs.
Her plan will put to good use ma
terial ordinarily wasted, and it is
hoped that hundreds Of useful little
dresses for children Of the war zone
will be made. The need is great, and
the ability to meet it in part requires
comparatively little.
This is too good an idea to be con-
fined to one section of the country.
Clubs should spring up everywhere to
aid in this noble and humanitarian
work of clothing the little war zone
refugees.
If you haven't the time, but have
the shirts, send them to Mrs. Gilmore
at the Yonkers chapter of the Red
Cross. This photograph shows Mrs.
Gilmore with her two little children
wearing short dresses, but you'd never
know it, for the little dresses are very
daintily made

! most potent inlluenceS for keeping the
men contented and in the right frame
of mind to smash the Germans, says
on two months leave.
"a canteen is a long shack where
the soldiers are served coffee, sand
witches and more substantial food as
well as sweets. Here soldier may
get his clothes mended, may have
them cleaned after the filth of the
trenches, and if he is homesick may
pour out his heart to one of the Amer
lean women in charge"
In other words, the canteen fur
nishes that homelike touch which
means SO much to a man three or four
thousand miles from his family and
friends.
Mothers with boys in France or in
training to go to France will be made
happy in knowing that such care is
given to their sons by the Red Cross.
The American women who have volun-
teered to run the canteens are among
the nations most cultivated women.
They are enduring conditions which
are in marked contrast with the sur
roundings of their own homes.
Lots of times an American soldier
will come into the canteen," said Mrs
Hull, with spell of the blues. He
has been out in the mud, is tired and
hungry, and most of all wants sympa-
thy. When he sees us women cheer
fully washing in mud puddle, sleep
ing in cold rooms and working long
hours on stretch, he gets ashamed
of his feelings and braces up. They
are mighty glad to see woman from
home and find our reading room, music
and chatter most alluring. We have
to run them out at times, they are SO
eager to stay even after regular
hours"

SORRY SHE DIVORCED HIM

st. Louis.-After divorcing her hus
band, Mrs. Margaret Lane learned that
he was Of certain value she had not
known Of before. He joined the army
and consequently was worth $45 q
month to her and her two children
while alive and $4,000 in case he is
killed.
So Mrs. Lane went into the circuit
court and asked Judge Grimm to set
aside her divorce, saying her husband
had sent check for $40 from Fort
Leavenworth. Also he did not know
she had obtained a decree.
But not so fast. The courts Of Mis-
souri, grind slowly and so Mrs. Lane
will have to write full confession to
her husband and have him consent to
the decree being set aside.

ONLY JOB OF KIND
Merchant Marine Has an Official
Chantie Man.
Stanton H. King Of Boston, an old
Salt, Teaches Rockies to Sing
Sea Songs.

Decentralization n. King Of Boston
has the only war job of its kind.
He is official chantie man for the
American merchant marine.
His work will be to revive chantie
singing among merchant sailors who
will join the country's new cargo ships
through the United States shipping
board recruiting service, national head
quarters of which are at Boston.
While chantie singing has declined
on all seas, owing to the change in re-
cent years from sailing vessels to
steamers-there not being much op-
portunity to "heave and haul" on
board a steamer-its revival is consid-
cred important for two reasons.
Chanties insure team work when
crew is pulling on ropes, even aboard
steamers; while the building of large
numbers of American schooners means
an increased demand for men who can
"reef, hand and steer on sailing YES
sells, where chantie singing used to
flourish.
The shipping board trains men to
serve on steamers, but if certain per-
centage ship on sailing vessels and
carry with them the almost lost knack
of chantie singing, they will be the bet
ter equipped for their work, according
to sharps on the seafaring game.
Stanton Fl. King probably is the
country's best-known chantie singer.
Chantie singing is part of a weekly en-
tertainment he gives Jack ashore at a
mission of which he is head.
The program is usually varied and
to hear Mr.. King lead his sailor friends
lin Shenandoah" Bound for the Rio
Grande" or "Blow the Man Down" is
to understand the psychologist punch of
the well-sung chantie.
Mr.. King is an old salt and learned
chantie singing on deep water vessels
He began going to sea 38 years ago,
from the Barbados, In the merchant
service.
