 Dwight Harris, and MT Maruice Bechus Nash, Jr., which took place on Monday
 morning at the home of the brides uncle MT J. F. Baldwin, on Huntsville avenue.

HEADQUARTERS BUSY

While the space at headquarters has been noticeably curtaled, the Red Cross is still very busy place. The knit ting and sewing departments are still in operation, and faithful workers gather every day to sew on refugee garments. These workers deserve the greatest cred- it, for without the inspiration of war, only real sense of duty impels them to continue to give their time to the Red Cross.
 Could everyone realize the great need in the devastated areas of Europe, the poverty and suffering left in the cruel wake of war, they would be willing to continue work, until the need for it was over. And the greater number of work

WHAT THE "v" MEANS


 Those chevrons! What do they mean? The boys say they don't know. They're only there because they're there. Their wives and mothers know they don't know.
 Who knows? The home service section of the American Red Cross. They say that a gold "V'' worn point down on the lower half of the left sleeve means six months service in the theatre of operations: every additional six months earns another gold chevron.
 A sky blue chevron means less than six months service in the theatre Of operations.
 A silver chevron, worn in the same manner as the gold, means that it's wear CT has served six months outside the theatre of Operations.
 A gold chevron worn on the lower half of the right sleeve does not mean tEat the wearer got mixed as to arms. It means that he was wounded, and the nrmber of times can be designated by counting those chevrons.
 A man with scarlet chevron worn point up on the left sleeve, midway be- tH cen the elbow and shoulder, testifies that he has been honorably discharged from his country's service.
 So after this when you see a returned soldier, just run along beside him for a minute and you will know more about him than he would tell you in an eve ming

l wasn't with the slightest inten- II tention of discussing his domes-
 tic affairs that I dropped in to see MT. Al Shean at the Hotel Hill man late yesterday afternoon; far be il from me to inquire into the troubles of others: indeed. there is little story to the effect that negro preacher, once inquirlng of another about Lots wife, was given the sage advice that many a fellow had gotten into trou- ble 'duirin' about another mans wife" which was an easy way of an ignor- ant minister avoiding an eXhortation on theme he knew nothing about. On the other hand I really had tale of woe of my own to pour out to the nice man\ who was to give me the in- terview all about belated trains, wait ing for hours at the Jefferson to set an interview; no sign of perfectly good stars; had expected to do a double header with Mir.

 First lof all, please let me remind you who Mr. Shean is-the Vaudeville team of "Shean and Warren, you know the MT Schmaltz of ''Princess Pat" fame; the eccentric comedian Of The Rose Maid and oh, ever so many other big Broadway successes.

 When he told me that he'd been married 2S years l mildly suggested that he must be very good husband.

 that there seems to be little gained i'll
 any association with a nation that we all know is in the wrong, and even an actor dislikes to associate his name with personalities, although it is mere play acting which portrays the bru-
