 or the benefit of those who have not read carefully the articles which nave been appearing in the Times for l lne past two weeks. relative to the 5000 Will delegation election which IS IS now going on in the city under the auspices of the American Committee Tor Devastated France, this explana- ton of what the Good Will delega- llon stands for is made.
 The American Comnittee for Devas- lated France of which Miss Anne
 1organ is the chairman. was orig lhnally started by a small party of in 1917 and worked with their brains ana their bodies to help ease some of the suffering of the boys who were aghtlng for the liberty of the world.
 Founded a Hospital.
 Miss Morgan founded a hospital in France and gave of her bounty and ner time that, relief might come to .he boys; When the war was ended, unlike the majority of workers, this little army of American women did not relax their work, but kept stead ny on and just as soon as it could be oone' started in to rebuild the de- Vastated regions of France.
 That they have succeeded far be- wound their hopes is true, but the fact remains that there is yet much to be the work of the American Commit tee.
 When Miss Morgan was in France last year she conceived in conjunction with Amba dor Herrick, the idea of sending a Good Will delegation of self supporting women to France se- lected by popular vote in their own communities, to carry the message to France, and be a fitting finish to the great work already under way.
 The idea was worked upon and in the usual prompt and efficient way she does any task she sets herself n hrn1 hnf and in due time ske Good Viii de1ega- tion project was perfected.
 Most Responsive.
 The different towns and cities in the country, when approached in the matter. were most responsive and be- fore long the elections wea s1saning and the first delegation of ST s~-- supp orting American women and girls were elected and sailed last July for a six weeks trip through France.
 The object is to collect enough money to help the old men and wom- en, and helpless children of France find shelter. Even though so much has been done, there are many, many living in dugouts and lacking proper care and nourishment.
 It has ever been the way of Ameri- ca to finish what she starts, there fore, the American Committee for Devastated France feels sure, the re- | sponse to help rehabiiitate poor war wre ecked France will be as prompt in this Good Will election as in any oth- CT campaign they have supported in the past
 Send Messenger. The fact that in conjunction with this wonderful gift which the differ ent communities send to France their own girls will be the messengers to carry the gift, makes it twice as att tractive to the different towns that have entered into the work with the American Committee it is 'F>rance, Gir1.''
 American Committee Headquarters. How the wheels go around is a mat ter of interest to almost eVerybody. The methods used by big business houses are always of interest to the customers of those houses; in like manner the ways of the "headquar- ters'' are a matter of keen inter est to all those who have a connecAon or interest in an organization. The headquarters of the American Committee for Devastated France. at 16 East 39th street, New York city, originally an old stable, which has been restored so as to house the ac- tiyities of a most earnest group, who are spending themselves in the ser l vice or the unlCTUulldIS dflu5 III Ai1ohS cases, innocent victims of the late war.
 A Restaurant. The lower floor is used as a restau- rant, which is managed by a volunteer member of the executive committed The proceeds of this work pay the rent, taxes and upkeep, and a certain surplus which is used for the work abroad. Nearly all of the waitresses in this restaurant are volunteers, which fact does much to make it a paying enterprise.
 The two upper floors are used for offices, where members of the com mittee may be found at all hours each carrying on her particular task.
