New York, Feb, 1&.--''Womcn smoking in N0ssar college or on the grounds up thcrc? know it. isn't true. Women smoking in the '. w. C. A. halls overseas" don't think that is truc.'
 Mrs. William Henry Hays director of the Y. W. C. As annual financial drive, which opened on Monday, so said yesterday afternoon at her cam paign headquarters, 6S0 Fifth avenue She added that the whole subject of smokes for women was too absurd to discuss, And smokes in '. w.

W. c. A. workers who are managing the affairs of that orga nization.

Life Worth Living

After all, what are we living for? It's difficult to believe that the henefcent Creator put us on earth and said, Now live, and find life sorrow, struggle and distress.
 The same God which created man created the natural world. and in nature there is so much to make us happy and joyous and make us laugh. We don't know why We laugh; we simply know We are hap py without reason.
 Every man who lives in village or city, every man who works, has known more than one day when he has suddenly lerked himself away from his work and, with real an- guish, cried to himself, If 1 could only get away-up in the woods - up creek sOmewhere.' He wants to get where there Is no one around, where he is free man where he doesn't have to bother about what the neighbors think, what his trade thinks, or what other workers think: plain John, just an ordinary man, doing as he pleases, and an- swerable to uo one but his God.
 That's living!
 That's happiness and joy.
 That's what we were put on earth for; to soak up the fresh smell of the untouched earth, and the wild flowers, and the water: to feel our feet falling on earth that seems to heal the footsore; to rest our eyes on distances that fade away into the falling skies, and the nest ling clouds. Then, you're your own master.
 That's living.
 We preen ourselves in civiliza- tion. We shrink from savagery, but civilization has made us pay, each one of us. Civilization has taken away our independence and has made us interdependent. That is not good, and if we can get away, even but once year, and be alone with nature, we'll get back some of our manly heritage, the heritage of mastery, that has made man ruler of the world.
 Follow the waterway, for the waterway takes you tarthest from the world. Follow road and you Il find civilization at the end of 1t. Follow the waterway and you'll sit on the top of the world alone. There'll only be the ripple Of the water and the masterless wild things for company.
 Think of your only cares to be safe place to pull up your boat, soft place to roll your blankets and an unwarv fish to nibble at your hook. Isn't that living?
 That's why we were put on earth, and living cleanly with nature will make you more ready to take up the life hereafter.

One day recently the Fairbanks

One day recently the Fairbanks siren blew to give warning of a fire in the city. One of the citi- zens who answered the call left some parafin wax on his stove while he went to the fire. When he returned, his house was com pletely gutted by the flames which had been caused by the over. heated wax. The original fire alarm was due to an overloaded hue, that did no damage.
