However she worked tire- lessly to enlarge and extend this priv- ilege to all the women of her home state. Seamen in Trenches. Keeping an eye open for the wily submarine is no reason why sea sol- diers shouldn't get ready for life in the trenches, according to Sergt. J. G. Woolley of the United States ma- rines, who had been given a few days’ leave from a battleship. «part of our dock looks like a little bit of Flanders,” says ‘Woolley. “We have strung up six tough willow Boches with long center poles protrud- ing from each and operated from the rear.

The avalanche of - refugees that swept into Paris from the north of France had been the despair of the civil authorities.” These homeless, stunned people were a new responsi- bility to be added to the thousands of wounded men that came steadily from the shambles of the west front. Paris is an old city.. It was not ready to take in its neighbors’ chil- dren. Its population was already a tight fit. So it made the best of its poor hospitality by offering up its. gar- rets. New building construction seem- ed impossible. Men were scarce, The mechanic was either manning the trenches or fighting the fight in the war factories. Paris was distracted. It is wonderful indeed how nobly Paris tried to meet this condition. And it is remarkable how Paris met it with the ald of our own Red Cross. Unhampered by red tape or precedent. our Red Cross put on overalls and Jumper, carried the hod, became archi- tect, engineer and contractor and went into the building of homes. Here was & church lot that lay vacant; here an snfinished hospital; there a worn out HELPED WHERE GOV. building, all of which In a fortnight were started on their way toward new apartments, rooms and sleeping wards. We here at home who associate the great Red Cross movement with band- ages and white gowned nurses must lose this old illusion in the light of a thousand other works for humanity. In this case we see the Red Cross first as diplomats convincing the civil authorities of Paris as to their ability to remedy the situation, then as architects remodeling buildings, chang- ing building plans, hiring labor gath- ered by themselves from the ex-sol- diery and the older man, all the while working under every imaginable hand- fcap, while Father Time cried, “Get it done, get it done.” So out of the garrets came these de- spairing people to find new hope in clean homes, to get new cheer out of sheer bodily comfort and fresh cour- age to again take up the great trus: that France has kept so well—*to car- ry on.” It is not strange that our French brothers believe in your own Red Cross just a little more than yov do.

In Maine, in Canada, in the Rocky mountains and in other parts of the country where game abounds, or where fish abounds, many resi- dents make a profit upon the nat- ural resources of their vicinage by guiding visiting sportsmen, by board- ing them and by serving their nceds )in other ways. Game wardens in Kentucky have suggested that Ken- tucky mountaineers make an effort to conserve fish and game and cap- italize resources which once were and should again be more fruitful than farming where the little cornfields are slanting and the yield from erod- ed soil is small. There are sections of the mountains in which farm lana is fertile, but there are considerable areas, providing excellent cover for game, in which farming as practiced is not very profitable. There are mountain streams which would be ideal for the purposes of the angler if there were sufficient interest in the counties ‘they traverse in aiding the fish and game commission to enforce the laws conserving fish.—Louisville URGES MORE FISH AND GAME | s GRAND THEATRE - TONIGHT BELLE BENNETT In new Triangle Drama “THE LONELY .
