Captain Roosevelt, Who Was In Hoe
pitaI, Lauds Red Cross.

Capt. Archibald Roosevelt, who re-
Gently was injured and nursed back to
health in a Red Cross hospital, in
speaking of the Red Cross work, Is re-
ported as having said:
THE Red Cross is doing everything
possible for u.s. cannot say too much
in appreciation Of their efforts, which
make us feel as if we were back home.
It Is a great comfort to us fellows in
hospitals, and if our folks could see
the way we are being taken care OF
they would stop worrying"
The Red Cross chaplain in this par
ticular hospital happens to be Doctor
Billings of Groton, Mass, who taught
Captain Roosevelt at the Groton
school. The Red Cross shopping serv-
ice in the hospital has been commits
stoned by Captain Roosevelt to obtain
a new uniform for him to replace the
one which was torn to pieces when he
was wounded by fragments Of Ger.

NURSES PRETTY

Most Becoming in His

In a recent news letter from the
front the war correspondent Of the
Philadelphia North American helps to
explain the song, Im in Love With q
Beautiful Nurse"
"There are g. Red Cross nurses at
this place." says the dispatch. "They
are cheerful, obedient, brave and com.
petent. And those who weren't pretty
to begin with became so the moment
they donned the uniform that Is the
most becoming in all the long history
of costumes devised for the myStlfca.
ton and beguiling of men.
"In the officers ward was a colonel
with bronchitis. I've seen them in the
Philippines, and I've seen them in Chi
na,' he told me. Il suppose I've seen
about all the existing types, but nev-
err yet saw one that wasn't pretty in.

HE reminded me Of an Irish Tom

up in hospital in 1916 and, seeing the
nurses in the ward, exclaimed, May

Hundreds of Red Cross nurses, how.
ever, are doing work abroad in which
their looks are less eagerly considered.
Finding and caring for war orphaned
babies, fighting tuberculosis, re-estab.
fishing homes in shell wrecked villages
these are some of the big tasks of
mercy which, thanks to American con.
tributions, the Red Cross sets for its
nurses.

WHAT HOME SERVICE
HAS DONE FOR ME"

My husband enlisted over a year
ago. Shortly after he went away our
twelve-year-od boy had the measles.
After his recovery his school teacher
complained about his conduct. At
home he was nervous and irritable.
When called at the Red Cross to find
out how l could secure an increase in
allowance because of our newly born
babe l told them of my trouble with
Harry. On their advice l took him to
an oculist, who said glasses were need
ed Immediately because of the weak
ened condition of the eyes following
measles. He no longer causes trouble
at home or at school.

ROMANCE GONE
Efficiency Kills Sentiment as
Machine Makes Socks
in Is Minutes.
BY RUTH DUNBAR.

"How snowy white your fingers look
against the scarlet wool" was the
fayorite speech Of grandfather when
he was paying suit to grandmother
who, If history is correct, never al
lowed little things like love and court
ship to distract her mind one minute
from her knitting.
The modern young man Is robbed OF
any opportunity to make these pretty
speeches, for the wool is no longer
scarlet but khaki. Worse yet, the
maiden sits before a cold, steel ma
chine and grlnds off socks in as many
minutes as it takes hours to knit them
This is what efficiency does to TO
nance.
In the various Red Cross workrooms
of the New York County Chapter there
are nearly seventy-five sock machines
Eight of these are In the model work,
room at 20 East Thirty-elghth street and
others that have been ordered are held
up by traffic conditions. Here instruc-
tors teach the use Of the machine to
Red Cross workers.
A complete pair Of socks can be
made on the machine in rs minutes.
me machine looks like a cross between
fishing tackle and a pile driver. The
worker threads it through the arm and
carrier on to the threader. The body
of the machine Is a circle Of needles
bent at the ends like crochet hooks.
Sweaters also are made on the sock
machine, the strips sewed together and
the ribbing at top and bottom knitted
on by hand.
Besides the machines in the Red
Cross workrooms there are many
owned by private individuals or groups
who work at home and donate the re
suits to the Red Cross. In a family
hotel, for instance, four or five women
can club together and buy a machine
