WHEN A WOMAN L

When at length, in the darkness,

Thus finding him broker and with
that illmsy intimate garment of his

me.
And his words, as l remembered
them, just before l slipped away to
my room thrilled me strangely and

Il knew it was you-and I'm not
sorry you We're there" he said and
then added slowly, Il wish" but
he didn't finish it.

In the darkness L couldn't see his
face, but it seemed that as he added
the last two words his eyes were

What could he have wished?
Perhaps it is only sympathy.

demarkation, to find where sympa-

Nutrition Expert Makes
Report On Work Under
Auspices of Red Cross

Before concluding her work in this
city in the early part of July, Miss
Mary Newell, the nutrition special
list working under auspices of the
local chapter of the Red Cross
through finances supplied by the CO.
lonial Danes of New Jersey as their
contribution to the Americanization
program. submitted a report, here
tofore unpublished, which shows
conclusively the excellent results re-
ceived from her work within the
three short months that she was
in Perth Amboy. or particular in
terest was the milk experiment
which the Red Cross financed to the
extent of $50 and the number of
pounds gained by the thirty chill
dren was a startling proof for par
ents of the necessity of milk to the
diet of their children. This was only
n instance of the work accom-
plished in the nutrition line.

parture, follows:

The gossip was led by May and

was the irony of it. For all the COS

the known and half-guessed trans

were brought out, commented on,
enlarged, made convincing-while
they sat there sewing for charity!
