By the Way
BETH BLAINE.

There are four steps to Can
teen Heaven-four ways to be .
Canteen angel, according to the
very excellently drawn poster
which hangs just inside the door
Of the Red Cross Canteen at the
Chapter House. The four can
teen angels, depicted with feet
firmly planted upon the steps
wear the blue uniform and cap
Of the Canteen Corps-plus the
wings. The name Of the artist
who did the poster IS Ethel A.
Brewer-Mrs. Bert Brewer-and
If any one should know about
canteen work, she should, because
for the past two years she has
given practically all her spare
time to it-and according to Red
Gross officials, the canteen angels
may we'll take her as a model.
AS assistant to Mrs. Samuel
Herrick, Mrs. Brewer helps with
the weekly teas which the Red
Cross gives for the trainees at the
American University and she also
serves as assistant personnel di-
rector MRS. J. r. Espinosa is the
directory at the Chapter House
Canteen registering the volun-
teers in and out, assigning them
to their duties, and helping to
make this particular project the
astonishing success it is.
Mrs. Brewer told US little about
the trainee teas. They serve as
a sort Of break between stren-
uous studies for these girls who
are going overseas" she told us,
land they're a wonderful morale
builder. The girls all seem to
enjoy them tremendously. We
try to vary the refreshments
just now, Of course, featuring
iced beverages, or frozen dessert
and cakes and sometimes tiny
little sandwiches, and having the
teas out on the lawn.
Sometimes there's a surprise
in the form of entertainment
such as the style show held re-
Gently, when pretty girls modelled
the right and wrong of the
Red Cross trainees' complete
wardrobe. On Memorial Day and
the Fourth Of July the trainees
were given picnics."
Mrs. Brewer has had both the
Canteen and Nutrition courses
and also first aide and advanced
first aid. In the last War Fund
drive she helped canvass her
own residential district. She
runs her own home without a
maid and prepares all the meals
for her husband and herself.
A native of Illinois, she had
part of her schooling there and
the remainder of it here where
she attended George Washington
University and also the National
School Of Fine and Applied Arts.
She likes tennis, riding and just
being out in the open-and we
needn't tell you that she likes
preparing good food, because she
couldn't do such q splendid Job
OF it If she didn't really enjoy
what she's doing.
