To Mount Alto Hufs
E.r-SerUice Men.

Former service men at the Mount
Alto Hospital Hut had dates with
Santa Claus yesterday, but not the
kind one has with ones best girl.
These were done up in fancy boxes
and were presented by Santa Claus
to the men as they left the hut
after the Christmas Eve entertain
ment and dance. Members OF the
Women's Overseas Service League
of Washington had stuffed the dates
with nuts and rolled them in sugar,
and also made real home made
cakes. ice cream and chocolate to
show they had not forgotten what
they used to do in canteens over.

The program began with selec-
lions by the Marine Band. A mem
Der of the league IN overseas uni

bers. the first one being a Christ
mas tableau Of the Three Wise
Men. Genuine costumes from Pales-
tine were worn.
Dhere followed songs sung by ono

the A. E. F. in France Then came
several charades Just to prove
that the Oversees League is not pre-

several stunts. The league made its
reputation for good looks when the

To the sound of sleigh bells,
Santa Claus appeared and announced
that his pack was too small to con-
tain the Christmas present the
women's Overseas Service League
had asked him to bring to the Mt.
Alto Hut. so he had sent il on ahead
"a player piano with rolls of
music. banjo attachment, n

every day in the year. The hut
was festively trimmed with greens.
colored lights and flags. many of
the decorations having been given
by the American Red Cross. OF
course there was tree. with all

Besides furnishing the music for
the entertainment, the Marine band
played for dancing. which brought
the evening to a close. The women's

formed of her appointment to the
advisory committee, and she felt
that to let such an opportunity
slip by would be folly-for India
is likely to go on forever. When
she starts to encircle the globe
this time. her first stop will be in
Russia. instead of India as origi-
nally planned, which leads one to
suspect that there will soon be
some articles about Russia from
the pen of Mrs. Egan.
MRS. EDISON REPRESENTS
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
Early in the conference I re-
marked to Mrs. Egan that / had not
met Mrs. Edison, but that the other
two women on the advisory COM
mittee seemed so much a part of
the section of the country which
they represented. whereupon she
remarked with characteristic vi
tally:
We'll, 1 am sure you will md
that Mrs. Edison does justice to
California"
Before 1 get too far away from
Mrs. Egan, l might add that she of
one whom 1t is difficult to assign
to any particular section. She is
thoroughly American. but she has
the air of a cosmopolitan Ameri-
can to such an extent that one
can't just place her.
When / had an interview with
Mrs. Edison a few days later 1 was
quite convinced that she and Cali
fornia were inseparable. That may
seem a bit. strange, too, for Mrs.
Edison is not a native of the Sun
shine State-yet she has been mat
uralized" long enough to reflect II
well. She has the sunny breezi-
ness and pleasing self-confidence
that residence in California seems
to produce
Mrs. Edison was born at Kenton,
Ohio, near the Harding home. Her
father, DIR. william II. Phillips,
was a prominent leader in the early
political life of the State. Indeed,
Mrs. Edison says that all of her life
she has dwelt in a political atmo-
sphere-and that, coupled with the
inheritance of Ohio as a birthplace,

litical turn. For II 10 quite evil
