by the Quartermaster's Department Of
the American Expeditionary Force give
an idea of supplies orly when it is re.

between daily consumption and arrivals

striking example. The stock in hand
at the last report was 100000 pounds
and yet the American forces are receiv-
ing 10000 tons of potatoes month.
which makes 60,000,O0O pounds, chiefly
from Ireland. Potatoes being perishatle,
it would not be wise to keep double the
daily stocks in hand. Other items were
as follows:
Fresh beef, 100000 pounds; timed
beef, 23,700o00 pounds; timed bacon, &c.,

Red Cross worker. Here at the entrance
to the big light ward a Kelly drill
is in hilarious progress, the rookie handling
his crutchride with veterans skill.
By the window where he can look down
on the silently speeding train that is soon
to take him back to his home in Mime
sofa, Hartwell Carr, of the 361st Infantry,
is hearing from Walter Mccormick. of the
320th who left Pittsburgh for the verdun
sector, the details Of the very excellent
entertainment that the Lambs provided at
their clubhouse the night before There
was lambent and reminiscent smile over
the drolleries of William Kent. who in the
leading role of "Somebody's Sweetheart"
had joshed his way into the hearts of the
Lambs and their guests before the big eats
down at the club.
Carr and Mccormick are natural buddies,
though they don't hail from the same regi-
ment. Fate ordained that on the first of
November last they both receive Teutonic
compliments in The shape of shrapnel and
high explosive, Carr up at Roulers in Bel
GUM and Mccormick in the Argonne. They

Wounded on November /, 1915
Carr had been driving seventeen days
in the Argonne when those in authority de-
cided that he had done enough to the Jer-
ries on that front and to keep the war drag
ging on few days longer they shipped
him up to the Belgian front. Here whizz-
bang changed his luck by spreading itself
over his right hand. Mccormick, on the
other hand, had been going but FIVE minutes
when he was wounded four times. Where
is the logic of this war? asks Mccormick

~ UNDAY afternoon.
A Father has gone upstairs with the
~ paper and his pipe, and in short
while there will sound through the
house the lusty explosions that accompany
fathers slumbers. Mother, with the COM
Portable crinkly noises that her best dress
always makes, is tidying up in her parlor.
Sister Jane has sailed out with pig
tailed, giggling, much beribboned COM
pany, and YOU, WELL you are left fiat with
a heavy dinner setting uneasily on your
conscience and vast gloom settling over
your soul.
Remember those Sunday afternoons?
Nothing much to do; nothing much to see;
nowhere much to go.
Consider then the latter-day difference
Come with The Right-About's reporter to
the Grand Central Palace and watch for
moment the long line of machines that
of Sunday afternoon mill around by the
main entrance waiting to take the gold
stripe men for long swing up the river
front where there are glimpses through the
misty smother of great zebra-sided ships
lounging at their moorings, or perhaps it
is purring spin through the park with the
Obelisk looming suddenly ahead and the
sight of trees that have never shell-sc
on their straight limbs. Watch the crutches
being dclicately handled by the attentive
James, hear the kidding talk that flies back
and forth between the lucky riders, and ask
yourself If New York has ever known such
Sunday afternoons as these.
Come through the knot Of visitors who
are anxiously awaiting passes and step into
the elevator with this so-easy- to- look upon
