HAle,s RAID.

tBy Alice Lucille Hatcher. age i4.1
The message arrived at our place to-
day.
That Haig has captured some Ger
mans they say,
wonder II they fought hand to hand
For ! believe Haig has had this plan
ned.
II this is true. they've made big
raid
Maybe bel 4 win make the German.
And they say they've killed the Kali
ser's son.
Hurah for the fellow that fired that
gun.
We hope they'll never get over here.
But ! don't think there's much use TO
fear.
For years the Germans have prepared
for this war you know
Or they would have been whipped long
ago.
Think oGr boys will hold their line.
II the message is true. Haig has done
fine.
| hope this war viii soon be DER
And Peace will reign forever more.

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. ID. Gilmore. and she is devoting a
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 1t 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.
