Wives of Army officers-some
10000 of them-are indebted to a
Washington woman for being able
to contact one another during the
exigencies of war.
1t was through the efforts of Mrs.
Charles r. Bathurst, wife of Col
c. r. Bathurst, that the morale of
the Army wife was given a lift,
through the organization of The
LocatorS.
Today more than 10000 names of
officer vices are on file at The
Locators' headquarters, Post Office
Box SGT, Fort Leavenworth, Kans.
The purpose is to provide a means
for these Army women to learn the
whereabouts of friends with whom
they have lost contact How the
group came to be organized is an
interesting story.
The Locators are the result of
Mrs. Bathurst's experience on arriv-
ing at Fort Leavenworth from
Hawaii. The date was December 5,
l94l. Shortly thereafter she re-
ceived 200 anxious appeals for in
formation about the welfare and
whereabouts of mutual friends.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1942-12-03

AS she didn't know where many
of her own close friends had settled
for the duration, the idea occurred
to her to set up central file for
this information, inasmuch as the
peacetime means of tracing missing
addresses, such as publication of
War Department orders in the serv-
ice journals, were no longer avail
able.
Mrs. Bathurst set to work with
enthusiasm. Formerly Miss Hide
garde Halstead, she had attended,
the Potomac School and the Ma
tional Cathedral School for Girls,
and after her marriage made her
home at Fort Belvoir, Va, on the
several occasions her husband was
stationed there. Size is the daugh-
ter of the late Clarence Halstead,
who was on the staff of the ASSo-
ciated Press, and the granddaughter
of Murat Halstead, owner and editor
of the Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zette. A cousin, Brig. Gen. Lau-
renee Halstead, lives at 1911 Ma
comb street NV.
Mrs. Bathurst, after obtaining
permission from the commanding

Club was provided for The Lo-
Gators use.
Letters began arriving from all
sections of the world, wherever
American forces were stationed.
From the humble beginning the file
has been increased to point where
over 10000 addresses have been in
deXed.
In May a sister service, called The
Searchlight, was started at Annapo-
lis with full cooperation from The
Locators for the benefit of the wives
of officers in the Navy and Marine
Corps.
AS The Locators expanded, new
policies had to be adopted. An early
development was the Foreign Le-
gion," which utilities the clerical

organization to further morale of
service families no commercial firms
are entitled to use The Locators'
files, nor are any lists furnished.
Officials of the Army and Navy
Journal, and the Army and Navy
Register, are working in co-opera-
ito with Mrs. Bathurst's organiza-
ton. They hail The Locators and
The Searchlight as concrete testi-
mony to the efficiency of wives as
morale builders, not only for them
selves, but for their officer husbands.

1t is the hope of Mrs. Bathurst
that The Locators can secure the

The Locators also would like every
Army officers wife to know the ad-
