The overseas programme of the
organization is two-fold, first work
with enlisted men and women war
workers, and secondly, work in
civilian relief. The Etoile Service
Club for enlisted men in Paris was
the first European activity. In con-
nection with the work at the club
group of nurses visit the hospitals
regularly where the. soldiers are con-
fined. Here theh young women
readings and furnish entertainment
which are heartily enjoyed.
In answer to a real need three
hotels for army nurses and other
women war-workers have been
opened. The rapid Rehabilitation
of the army and closing of hospitals
and canteens made the housing
problem in Paris very serious one
On account of the great congestion
there were little or no accommoda-
tions, but at the request of United
States military authorities Hotel
Cecilia was opened as a hostess house
for regular army nurses and has
provided comfort aud pleasure for
hundreds of them since its opening
two months ago. English girls, en-
ployed in the Quartermaster Depart
ment by the United States Govern
ment, are cared for at the Hotel
Massena where special rates are
given.
Important work is being done in
the devastated territory. Up to the
present time the council has opened
up community cehters, nurseries,
welfare homes, rooming quarters.
and so forth at ST Quinn, Arras,
st. Mihiel, v&kdun, Amiens,
Brussels, etc. Units lave been select
ed from the workers with view to
making the workfT reconstruction
as comprehensive as possible. The
personnel of each unit includes a
trained social worker nurse, re-
creation director, an Instructor, and
a dietitian. AT San Quentin

Maison Sainte Rose,thas been opened
for the children ipf the working
