opEAKING of Independence Day
uotes mo think Of the Independence
S,nore Rod Cross which during the war
apJ until last May. when all Red cross ross
snIi;aries we're closed, was at 'oOo
Chestnut street You know the women
n that auxiliary have formed q per,
monent committee. which may oe cahe"
unon at any time IL the need arises. \
| heard the other day that tne meH
hers of the Independence square huAn
iary have been asked to JOIN group vi
'mothers" to take up Dit Oh nIint n.
work this summer. lt Is this. mn
each individual will mnder'ahe .to 10
''mother" some one patient III tne
pb;Iadelphin Uospital. who has no fam
jly or friends. And while away during
tho summer these mother" are to
send postcards to said patient, or
little letter. or souvenir, or book or
| little gift of some description. ! think
It's a splendid idea. for it must be SO
sad and hard to be for months and
months 10 a hospital with very little to
cheer one up. What an interest 1t viii
be for these sick people to have in their
lives It's fine thing. =.
The women's advisory council of the
Department of Public Health has asked
number of associations to take up
this work Quite number of the
troops of the Girl Scouts of this city
have adopted child from the hospital,
and are sending him or her little toys,
books. letters and postcards from time
to time.
As the appeal to the former Red
Cross workers say: 1T is not at all n
question of money that IL wanted, but
iust little personal thought and. If
you are near. a visit or reading out loud
that will help to brighten the days for
some one. 4 name. of course. is fur
nished to the person who writes and
asks to be allowed to mother some poor
sad person in the hospital. Mrs. George
Lorimer. who Is chairman of the lnde-
pendence Square Red Cross sent out
an appeal to the workers this week.
TT IS interesting to hear that. Mrs.
L Harry Lchr is in America once more
She is a sister of Mrs. Seton Henry
you know, and of the late Mrs. Charles
Penrose, Of this City.
Her other sister is Mrs Drexcl Dahl
Ten, who lives in New York.
Mrs. Lehr first married one Of the
Dahlgrens, and then several years after
his death, Harry Lehr. of Baltimore.
Mr.. Lehr did not come on with her but
Is at present in NiChy. where Mrs. Lehr
Will join him after her short stay in
America.
She has been stopping at the st.
Regis in New York, and after visiting
Mr.. and Mrs. Van Rensselaer, here in
Fort Washington, will go to Newport
TO be the guest of Mrs. Elisha Dyer
Mrs Lehr is very good looking and has
always been great favorite.
ANEl had been very naughty. and
hnally, after several threats, mother
paced her in the closet for five minutes.
Sald closet was perfectly well yenti-
lated so mother had no fears about the
punishment, but she was rather aston
ished when the crying suddenly ceased.
ih iact, before the five minutes were up,
Sne began to be worried. However. as
Sahey could tell the time. being as much
Us iour years old. she decided that dis
clphne must be maintained, SO she
