ITALIAN SHIPS
CARRY AMERICAN
MEN TO FRANCE

Rome, Feb. 6.-(By mail 1.-The Of
flee of the general staff Of the navy
issues this bulletin.
"The greatest and most brilliant
transportation success achieved by
the allied powers was without doubt
the transfer of the American army
from the coasts of America to the
coasts of France.
In this an important work was
done by our merchant navy already
magnificently proved and distinguish
ed for similar transport work, espe
cially by carrying our army Of occu'
patton to Salonica, and in the evacu.
alton of Durazzo by the thousands
of Serb refugees and the 10000 men
of the Serb army, routed after the
invasion of their country. This was
performed in winter in the face OF
enemy attacks.
"Our transatlantic liners America,
Caserta, Duca degli Abruzzi, Duca
d'Aosta, Taormina, Dante Alighiere,
Re dItalia, Regina d'talia carried
from>'April to November, 1918, in a
total of thirty-three voyages, 64,443
American troops, and 1859 tons of
war material.
"The commanders, officers and ma
riners of our merchant marine de-
monstrated once more thaat ability,
serenity and efficiency in a profes-
SIGNAL way which they had given
constant proof in the course of the
great conflict.
Nor is there flattery in the tri-
butte paid on August 2, 1918, by the
Commander-in-Ch Chief of the American
forces in France in a communication
to the head of the American naval
forces in Europe:
1T is with pleasure that I bring
to the attention of this command the
excellent service performed by the
Italian steamships employed in trans
porting troops to France.
1.-The high efficiency of those
steamships in the transport service
has contributed greatly by their
prompt unloading and quick return
to America.
H. B. WILSON,
From the laconic nature of these
letters shows the absolute sincerity
and therefore the intrinsic value of
the praise bestowed on our brave ma
riners of the merchant navy in the
opinion Of anyone knowing the Amer
ican character"

Which billet doux, | ask you now,
Shows that she loves you better
One with the goo stuf writ by hand,
Or a typewriter letter?
New York, March Nowadays,
when the modern maid takes her
pen in hand, it's usually type
writer. She has found she can gush
and goo and protest and promise
quite as effectively, twice as legibly
and three times as convincingly my
machine Besides it does save such
lot of valuable time for her shop
ping matineeing, bridging, and
Red Crossing Not nearly so many
serio-comic lovers quarrels and COM
plications arise therefrom, either. In
the old days, when Percy or Clar-
ence misread all sorts of wild things
from the undecipherable pot-hooks
of her chirography, it was frightful-
ly upsetting. Many cross love
was caused by an uncrossed T, and
an undotted | occasioned many a
moist one.
Lovers really owe an awful lot to
the typewriter. Ofttimes, as like
as not, they even owe for 1t. 1t is
not only as a complete love letter
writer, however, that the typewrit-
er is now the thing. For all sorts
of personal correspondence the 1919
maid, wife or widowed has pressed,
or rather pounded, it into service.
She uses the smartest stationery in
severe gray, cream or white, expen-
sive of texture and large of size,
with great square envelopes to
match. A legible monogram or in
itial is embossed in a color which
the typewriter ribbon must shade
up to. Oh, it is all very chic and
efficient, and best of all, easily read,
this newst typewriter first class fe-
male mail.
Don't for a minute think, though,
that we are to be free for evermore
from the fine flowing Spencerian
or heavy black bach-hand script
adorned epistles of yore.

panying paraphenalia Of perfumed

Robinson Crusoe was the most
surprised man when "he saw the
print of q mans naked foot on the
shore. There it was in the sand,
leaving no room for doubt for The
imprint showed toes, heel and every
characteristic of a human foot"
You will be as much surprised If
you step from the tub on to a sheet
of paper to note how different your
foot is from the natural foot that
Robinson Crusoe saw on the sands.
It is not impossible for you to
bring your foot back to normal il
you will consult experts in our
store, experienced in the art OF
fitting, whose duty it is to see that
no man departs with a shoe insult
ed to his foot. iTsi 3#EAMA
This is the service you get with

that foot binding in America is not
confined to women. Foot correction
