EMPL LOYMENT FOR
 OLD AND DISABLED

Paris, Feb. 14-One of the most ap- parent needs of the members of the American Expeditionary Force at the present time is entertainment to assist in passing away the time until orders are received to depart for home. To meet this need the Knights of Colum- bus, through it's Entertainment Divis- ion, have organized numerous troupes of entertainers who will visit the va rious units of the army and the first party of entertainers has left Paris
 It is announced that this work will extend to the American forces in France, Belgium, Italy and Germany and that every unit of the army will be reached.
 Among tho Knights of Columbus secretaries in France are many pro- fessional entertainers who will be dis tributed among the groups and vii be assisted with amateur talent among the workers. Entertainers will also be secured from among the members of the American Expeditionary Force to augment the work of the secretar- ies.
 A minstrel troupe is being rehears- ed and this show will soon be staged in Paris and will then be sent on the road to visit the various camps throughout the American army The members of this show will be recruit ed from among the Knights of Colum- bus workers, and members of the army and navy
 < While the men in the field are be- ing entertained those less fortunate and who are confined in the hospitals are not being forgotten as concerts are being given. in the various hos ;pitals in and around Paris several times each week. This portion of the work is highly apprecia d by the patients and the officers in charge ot ,the hospitals.

DIR. SHAW, THE
 SUFFRAGE LEADER

Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, will begin her seventy-third year today, as she was born at Newcastle-on-T Tyne, England. on St. Valentines Day in 1S47. Miss Shaw's father came of ar" old Scot ush Highland family, and the ruins of the clans castle may still be seen on the island of Loch- -an-Eilan. He mother was a woman of unusual a.- 'tainments for her day. Miss Shaw came to America with her parents whom she was four years old, and had a narrow escape from shipwreck on the way. The Shaws spent four years In Massachusetts, and then went to Michigan. They travelled by rail to Grand Rapids, and from there took prairie schooner to their log cabin home hundred miles away.
 In The Story of a Pioneer" Dr. Shaw has given to the world an en- tertaining and humorous insight into the lives of the early settlers in the Michigan of the '50s. She walked six miles day, through painless for est, to attend school. The suffragist leader of the future was, she admits, pert and trying young person." whose chief delight was to lure he- teacher beyond her mental depth and leave her there" It was a mean trick to play upon one of her own sex. although later in life she fully made up for it by playing them on mere man very often. At fifteen Miss Shaw exchanged the sole of pupil for that Of teacher, and her salary was $2 a week. She confesses that the s2S she received grom her first labors of thirteen weeks was spent on a party dress" Doubtless 1t was a lovely con- lection, for she had worn 1t but a few times when she received a pro- posal of marriage, from a youth of the neighborhood. Miss Shaw recalls that on the night he popped" the young man was clad in a blue flannel shirt and a pair of trousers made of flour bags, One leg of the pants" bore the words "A. & A. Green" and the seat of the garment was marked "96 pounds" Miss Shaw does not tell us how large a part this cos- tune played in inducing her to reject the proposal, but she felt little sor- ry for the infatuated lad when he said, That's darn disappointing to a fellow" Miss Shaw's ambition was to become a minister, and, after many trials and privations, she man. aged to work her way into Albion College, and the Theological Depart ment of Boston University afterward taking a D. D. degree from the same institution.

SPEAKS FROM
 LONG EXPERIENCE
What a Civilian Cripple Thinks of the Work Being Done for Soldiers
 by the Government.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Part of a letter written by N. R. Longtin of 332 Carol St., St. Paul, Minn., to the federal board for vocational educa- ton is indicative of what the govern ment is saving disabled soldiers from:
 T am a cripple for twenty-six years having lost my left leg below the knee and wish to state that if the chance now given disabled soldiers and sailors through your board to b< come self-supporting in some gainrui way had been available to civilians, 1t would have saved me and many others in the same disability I suffer from much pain, humiliation, dis grace and poverty. It is very strange that of all our boasted charities not one has ever advocated or tried to help crippled men in a practical way What all cripples want Is a chance to help themselves which is good in surance against pauperism and so- called charities"
 There are over 400 trades, occu- pations, callings and professions from which disabled soldiers and sailors may choose; may receive a minimum of s65 month support fund from the government while undergoing training, with adequate support for dependents. The training Is given In the trades, industries, factories, tech nical and commercial schools, and the best colleges and universities of the land, absolutely without cost to the individual.
 Moreover, when he has finished his course, the placement division of the federal board has found a position for him in the line for which he has qualified, and he Is given a try-out in it before his support allowance is withdrawn. When he goes on the pay roll as a competent worker then his support ceases. His. compensation from the war risk insurance bureau is unaffected by what he earns. The federal board for vocational educa- ton at Washington is desirous of hearing from every war disabled man to take the training.

NOT TO BE OPENED
UNTIL CHRISTMAS
Mark Christmas Parcels With This
Slogan, and Send EN-
Early

Early mailing of Christmas par
cells will mean: more expeditions
handling in transit; less danger of
damage or loss; certainty of delivery
before Christmas morning in case of
snow blockade or curtailment of
train service.
The foregoing advice is given by
S. A. Cisler, superintendent of rail-
way mail service in St. Paul, in a
communication to the postmasters in
the state.
The coal shortage has necessitated
the discontipuance of a number of
mail trains, and it is possible that
even further curtailment may be
made. If this happens it will cause
material decrease in train service
during the period from December
18th to 25th, it will result in con-
gestion and in post Offices, trains, and
terminals.
The EARLIER mailing of Christmas
parcels than has occurred in previous
seasons is therefore strongly urged by
the powers that be.
