~ NE Of the good things that have
come out of the war is the fact
that women have ceased to be
content to wheedle money for their pet
projects from reluctant masculine pock-
cts by feminine wiles. Instead, they
have learned to roll up their sleeves
and offer their own work, on a strictly
business basis Of full value given for
money received. RELOCATED, let US hope,
for all time to the pre-war horrors of
the past is the charity bazaar with its
useless articles and inflated price tags,
sold under the motto, "All's fair in love
and war and charity bazaars!"
One of the most strikingly successful
postwar examples Of this new method
of sleeve rolling is that Of the women
of Princeton, n. j. who banded to-
gether to run the Rose Cottage Tea
House. From the outset they deter
mined to support by their own efforts
the French village adopted after the
taking over by the American army Of
the Princeton ambulance, which had
been their first endeavor.
Already Princeton people pledged to
heavy war responsibilities we're finding
that their purses could not keep pace
with their sympathies. How was the
difficulty to be bridged! Then the COM
mttee had an idea. Why not open a
tea room with good food at reasonable
prices, meet real town need and earn
the money? A dance for which tickets
were sold furnished meagre capital,
and in cramped, low-ceiinged little
room, scrubbed and bedecked with
chintz, in tiny century-old house, the
committee bravely set out it's six tables
and gayly painted chairs, and hung out
it's shingle. All summer long tables
filled the lawn to accommodate the over
flow and by September they had cleared
$4,000 for their French village, st. Paul
au-Bois, which has been nicknamed Lit
tie Princeton-on-the~Ais
Then came the cold weather, for which
the tiny houss was inadequate. Did

A Brides
Experience

A bride Of less than year faced this
problem. Having lived all their lives in
one place, she and her husband had ac-
cumulated scores of friends, and, the
logical result, scores Of wedding pres
ents when they were married. Some of
them were beautiful and some of them
were useful, but many Of them we're
neither, and these were the brides de-
spair. To hurt no ones feelings, she ex-
hibited them all until her common sense
rebelled. Then she firmly and sensibly
disposed of the gifts for which she had
no use and no place.
The same woman confded another ex-
perience: otis perfectly ridiculous the
way inanimate things bind us, principal
ly, l suppose, because they represent
moods and emotions and feelings of all
sorts of human beings. There was set
of blue and white china containers for
sugar and coffee and rice and spices that
l received at Kitchen shower John
built a special shelf for them in my
kitchen; but upon experimenting found
they should, the coffee and spices soon
lost their favor. l kept that china set
for months because one of nv best
friends had given it to me. But finally
fate came to my rescue. Johns car
pentry work was not what it should have
been, the shelf had not been put up Sc
curely, and one night down plunged
shelf and china set to the floor. John
could not understand why I went out and
danced among the fragments.
Women have but lately been reminded
that the great world needs them, that
their personal lives mean something to
the rest of humanity. 1t behooves US
all, then, to take an inventory of our
stock, personal and household, that we
may eliminate the unnecessary things
which might hinder or handicap US at
time when we are still vitality needed.
After ALL there is something in that old
adage, BLESSED be nothing"

The speech also was his farewell

His address, he declared, was not a
message made for France alone, but
was an appeal to the entire world to
renew its labors as they had been per-
formed before the war and produce
for the worlds needs.
NJ. Clemenceau briefly reviewed
the treaty of Versailles and said al
