SOCIETY. S Flood Relief Work Curbs THE SUNDAY Returning Bethesda Social Activity Many Leaders of Community Devote Time to Sewing Garments—Several Residents Leave on Florida Vacations. area is usually a busy month socially, with Valentine parties and two holidays to provide l :EBRUARY in the Bethesda an excuse for special ente rtaining. But this year February brought with it stories of suffering in the Ohio and Mississippi Valle: ys, and women whose names are frequently mentioned in the society columns have for the past 10 days been seen almost daily at the Battery Park Club sewing on small garments to be sent to children in the flood districts. One large party scheduled that the guests could have more for last week was cancelled so time for sewing. The Woman's Club of Bethesda postponed its monthly book review and luncheon with Mrs. Ford Young on Tuesday and the members added their help to the group at the club house. Mrs, E. F. Kohman is directing the work. She has been the president of the local branch of the Needlework Guild for several years and it is under the direction of this organization that the sewing project is being carried on. Mrs. John W. Slacks has been help- ing Mrs. Kohman and also Mrs. Rob- ert Leopold and Mrs. Howard B. Richardson. Some of the Edgemoor women who have been engaged on the sewing work during the last week are Mrs. John F. Cremen, Mrs. Robert F. Fleming, Mrs. Wright and Mrs. F. O. Smith, and | from the neighborhood farther north have come Mrs. C. Martin, Mrs. George W. Laird and Mrs. C. J. King. From Battery Park Mrs. Reginald B. Looker, Mrs, David Lumsden and Mrs, Jack Irwin have contributed | their services. Some of the other women who have been doing their bit in this work for the needy are Mrs. George B. Clen- denin, Mrs. E. A. A. Dunn, Mrs. J. Reed Bradley, Mrs. John Yesair, Mrs. George F. Hane, Mrs. Ford Young, Mrs. George W. Bryan and Mrs. C. S. Moore. Mrs. Walter R. Tuckerman has been unable to be present when the sewing is being done, but she, as well as many other residents of the Bethesda area, have made generous contribu- tions of money to be used for the pur- chase of materials for the work. The women expect to sew again next week. The almost Springlike weather and the abnormally high temperatures which have prevailed in Washington and vicinity for the last month have not prevented Bethesda residents from succumbing to the lure of the Florida climate. A number of them are already in Florida for brief or protracted visits. Others are on the way by motor or train, and still oth- ers are preparing to start in the near future. Mr. and Mrs. George Dacy of Be- thesda have taken a house in Miami, Fla., for the remainder of the Win- ter and Spring. Mr. and Mrs. Dacy left for Florida in January. During their absence their house is being oc- cupied by Mr. and Mrs. L. 8.

Starratt ol‘» Somerset left yesterday for a month’s | stay in Florida. | Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Etz of Bradley Hills expect to leave for Florida Feb- ruary 13. Dr. and Mrs. E. L. Robertson of Drummond have just returned from a tour of the two coast lines of | Florida and they expect to return South next month in time for the tarpon fishing. Dr. Robertson goes South each year for the fishing sea- son. Last year he won the prize given by Field and Stream for the largest sailfish caught during the year and entered in the contest. Mr. and Mrs, J. Henry Brown of Alta Vista have been in Florida since November. They recently entertained at dinner in honor of t- daugh- ter, Miss Helen Brown.

Mrs. Joseph Baker “An American Doctor’s Odyssey."” = e {French Who Fled To Spain in 1914-18 Jailed on Return War Again Catches Up With Hundreds of Deserters. PARIS (#).—War has caught up with hundreds of Frenchmen who fled into Spain from 1914 to 1918 to escape military service. Spain'’s civil war blasted them out of quiet, settled lives in their chosen exile and sent them back across the border into the prison cells which have "\nited for them for more than 20 years. Fort Saint’ Jean at Marseille has been filled with Frenchmen who came | back to France and threw themselves on the mercy of the courts rather than serve in Spain’s armies. Others were jailed in Bordeaux. Most of them range in age from 40 to 50 years. Mere youths when France | entered the World War they preferred sanctuary in a foreign land to fight- | ing at the front. Many of them came back to France with their Spanish wives and children. Others found that war between Span- iards wrecked their homes. They came back to France leaving their Span- ish wives and friends to fight Spain's civil war. A few of the men are younger than war age—men who fled into Spain to escape the regular compulsory mili- tary service. Estimates of the number of desert- ers, pacifists and war dodgers who crossed into Spain' were ‘as high as 80,000 for the period between 1914 and 1918. Authorities refuse to say how many of these have come back. ) VALENTINE SPECIALS FOR AN EXQUISITE COIFFURE CALL MR.
