Dear Mrs. Thompson: % | am
very anxious to have you answer
a question for me that | have
asked a number of intelligent men
and women for the past 10 years.
l have never had any man or wO-
man answer my question as | thin 4
it should be.
Why is it girls and women are
such crazy cranks over just any
man that happens to put on uni
form Of any kind? When l say
just any man that happens to put
on a uniform | mean rough char
acters that girls Will not keep
company with in their home coun-
ties and states. These characters
| speak Of are undesirables in their
home counties. When one goes
way from home he may secure O
fiagman's place on a railroad, join
the city firemen or city police
force. secure run on a street car,
play in city band. or, above all,
become a soldier boy. We have
fine boys and men holding posi-
tons in all these places l men
-tion, but they are not all good cit
liens, and a girl does not stop to
think whether he is a good man or
nOt-just of his uniform.
90 Almost every day girls are
getting married to soldiers and in
one hour the soldier leaves for
camp. then in a few days leaves
for France, and the young wife will
very likely never hear of him
again. Some say the girl marries
the soldier TO get his insurance.
This won't do. A soldier can have
his insurance changed if he wishes.
Suppose the soldier is missing
and one never knows what has be-
come Of him, what about the wild
Ow then? Do you think our courts
would grant a divorce to a widow
when she did not know whether
her husband is living or dead? l
don't believe the courts will do
tEis. Then I think the girl has
sacrificed her life just to get to
marry a soldier boy l think II
time girls were using their heads
and staying out of life long trou-
bles.

man and soldier suggest courage

suggests music and the artistic. IN
many cases the toughest charac-
tiers live I'D to what is expected OF

C2) | am sure that not one girl
in a hundred marries for pen
sion. Nowadays girls can support
themselves and when they marry
soldiers they fully expect TO 1or a
long time at least. They certainly
face life bravely when they know
that their husbands may return IN

a pension not large enough to live

Music Club Closes Sessions.
The last program of the season
Of the Rock Island Musical club
was presented yesterday at the
Rock Island club An entertaining
and delightful program of wit and
humor in music was rendered by
Mrs. 5. J. Nyquist. voice, with Mrs.
Robert Lee at the piano; Mrs. W.
G. Murphy, reader; Miss Elizabeth

man. voice, with Miss Steck as ac-
Companist.
Announcement was made by the
club president. Mrs j.. r. TuCkis,
that at recent meeting of the eX-
ecutive board of the club the an
nual fee for associate members had
been reduced from 81 TO 81, this
action being taken because OF the
great number of demands for mon
ey made on people of the city for
other causes. 1t was also announc-
ed that the annual luncheon of the
club will be dispensed with in the
interest of food conservation. The
annual election of officers will be
held at a meeting of the active
members to be held next month.
The programs given by the club
during the last year have been very
good in every instance and have
always demonstrated the fact that
the club is organized and conducted
for serious study of music, rather
than for the entertainment that is
provided in a good program. The
standard of the programs has been
kept high and there has been vari-
ETY. enough always to prevent them
from losing the interest of the mem
hers. Because of the great demand
made on the time of everybody no
artist recital has been held during
the past season, but the Tri-City
symphony orchestra concerts have
in a measure taken the place of the
artist recitals.

in session yesterday at the Masonic

meHts looking to the consolidation
of the two bodies. 1t has been
agreed to consolidate the depart

must be a change in the depart

composed of Mrs. S c. Taylor from
the home economics ana Mrs. Allan

The name that will be selected
probably will be the civic and home

will be chosen from each to make
the governing body. The committee
elected by the civic department to
nominate officers will present one

respects have OverIapped in the in

best possible results to both. The

FurIough Homes Fund $3.50.

The sum Of $3.50 has been col
Iected among the membership OF
the Rock Island Woman's club to
apply on the FurlOugh homes fund
which is being collected by the Ma
tional Federation of Women's Clubs
for the purpose of establishing
homes back OF the fighting lines in
France where soldiers may go to
recuperate following hospital con-
fnement and when on short fur
loughs. The committee that has
had in charge the collection of the
fund feels that the women of the
city have been most generous in
their response to this fund in view
of the fact that there IS constantly
demand for money for every cause.
This is a voluntary offering and has
been cheerfully given with hopes
always that the homes may be es-
tablished at once The money has
been forwarded to the president of
the club. Mrs II. II. Cleaveland, who
is attending the national cOnven-
ton, being held in Hot Springs,
Ark The fund will not be closed
for some weeks and those who may
wish 20 contribute to the fund can
do so at any time.

ALL WILL LEAVE.
HOhenZOllerns Are to Depart
From Germany.
And Their Destination Is Not
Known Yet.

Amsterdam, Nov. 22.-All the mem
bers of the Hobenzol1ern dynasty will
leave Germany in the near future, ac-
cording to Frankfort dispatch to the
Rotterdam Courant. Their destina-
ton, 1t adds, is not yet known.
So far as known, the only members of
the Hohenzollern dynasty who already have
left Germany are William Hohenzoiiern,
the former emperor, and his eldest son,
Frederick William, the former crown
prince. Both are in Holland. There have
been conflicting reports regarding the
former German empress, who has been In
poor health for some time, but the proba-
bilities point to her not having left German
territory.
The ex emperor has five other sons, Eitel
Frederick. Adalbert, August William, Oscar
and Joachim. His one daughter. Victoria
Louise, married the Duke Of Brunswick in
1913. A recent dispatch reported the abdi-
cation of the duke.
The former emperor's only brother,
Prince Henry of Prussia. fled from kiel
hurriedly at the time of the naval mutiny,
but is not known to have quit German soil
There are several male children among the
former rulers grandchildren.
