Americans In France Take Every

in Principle Of War.

II was on the lighter that was
bringing American soldiers from the
transport to the shores of France.
A red triangle man pushed his way
through the jam, and stepped up
where they. could all see him.
Boys" he shouted, with wave
OF his hand, IT want to welcome you
all to France. The men cheered
He stopped them with n gesture.
Remember he said, taking his
hat off. that France has been fight
ing for four Years. Remember that
France is tired. France Is sad; she
has given her best Before this
drive began, French soldiers found
n woman In black kneeling In a
cemetery In sector up front.
"'No civilians are permitted here
madam one OF them said to her.
"T have come to kneel by the
graves of my husband and five sons. '
she answered. They gave their lives
for France
'Tnstantly those French soldiers
stood al attention, saluung. Inc wo-
man got to her feet.
You have come to fight with such
n people. As our secretary of war
told the home folks. we know that
this war cannot end until peoples
heart is broken. and those who have
looked into the faces OF the people
OF England, France and Italy know
that force can never break that
heart
1--WE trust Won have come to
France not boastful, but determined
and confident. AS you land, keep In
mind the heroic sacrifice which
France has been Obliged to make to
save civilization from the he'll OF
Prusslan militarism. Remember that
we have come over here to help win
this war--not for France, not for
but for our own America"
There was a great whoop as he

LONDON, June 29.-What Queen

women's royal naval service or

But there Is glamour about the

even in the navy corps, which has
its patrol boats and fulfills many
of the functions OF the coast guar

There are two branches OF the

would do at munitions or any other
work.
Have Natty Uniform
The uniform is provided free to
the rank and file and 500 Is allowed
officers for their outfit. For the
workers Coat frock like that OF the
Waacs Is approved and the officers
dress also resembles that OF the
Waacs. 1t is made of Khaki twill.
and khaki shirt and tie are worn.
The initials, W. X. A. r. are EN-
broidered on shoulder brassard.
The hat is the least successful item
OF the uniform. The fact Is that
nothing really becoming has yet
been foynd for the war service girls
except that jaunty soft mop
cap with visor which Is worn by
the motorcycle section. This is alb
solutely fetching and makes almost
any sort OF young face look at
tractive. but the round tan felt hats
with brims too marrow to be bent
and too wide to be smart, which is
the regulation officer headgear
are about the most trying and unbe-
coming things ever invented.

ing the service and no girl who is
not a British subject born of British
parents is accepted for enlistment
The Penguins get free medical at
tendance and in case OF sickness or
accident they are generously pro-
vided for.
Vacation With Pay.
A fortnlghts leave with pay is al
lowed every twelfth month and the
pay is graded according to efficien-
cy. Four weeks training is re-
quired. The learners are allowed
$3.50 a week learners pay; IL they
have to go to a training depot they
are housed and boarded free during
the four weeks II they can take
their training at home 81 week Is
allowed for board.
The work of the force is divided
into four sections, clerical, house
hold, technical and general, and un-
der the four nearly every branch of
work that a woman can possibly do,
excepting two, the care Of children
and nursing, is included.
Stenographers draw the highest
pay. $l0.S0 week, and its just al
most impossible to get them. OF
course women are not allowed to
leave any war work they are already
In to join the new corps, so that the
material for this latest woman's war
activity is entirely fresh.
Quality Is Improving
And does 1t show a falling off
quality? Is the supply OF young,
active unencumbered women begin
ming to run short now after four
years of war?
Judging from the splendid speci-
mems Of young womanhood that /
have lately seen attached to the
flying corps, the girls training for
officers, the motorcycle division, the
technical section. 1t seemed to me
that far from falling off the types
are improving every month. All that
the government asks in its recruiting
campaign is for 10000 women in
all the services combined. that is the
Waacs, the Wrens, the Penguins
and the land army.
The Penguins. organized since the
first of April already have
5000 women on the job not training,
but actually working; the first draft
comprised hundreds OF girls who had
trained themselves at their own ex-
pense and were ready to volunteer
the moment they were called.

Last Monday when force OF men

building operations, the. effect OF
which will be to greatly enlarge the
capacity Of this greatly overcrowded
clothing store.
The new structure will give an
additional floor space OF fifty by

knowledged by who see II, to be one
Of the finest examples OF store plan
ming in the country. II such a thing
is possible, however the Tulsa store
will be even richer in appearance
than the Oklahoma city store, by
reason of the fact that the latter
