Picture shows are being put on in

cording to reports reaching the Ma
tional Y. W. C. A. from Y. w. c. A.
nurses hut in Base Hospital.
Having no elm or camera, the
nurses at Base decided to put on .
living picture show and invited a
group of nurses from a nearby hos
pital to be the audience. It was a
real thriller, one Of the wild and WOOL
~ west variety, with bucking bron-
choes and wild rides on broom and
mop horses.
Imagination supplied the scenery,
With. the exception Of placards, which
announced "the sun" when it was Sup
posed to be shining or "cacti' when
the COW punchers rode across the
desert.
Countess Vacaresca Of Roumania,
who had been talking to the nurses on
conditions in the German courts at the
time she was lady-in-waiting to the
Queen of Roumania, was the most ap-
precative Of all the guests.

Investigation disclosed that most Of

when a few units annexed homeless
