Its sceretary; 'W. Abbott, has jyst sent us a case bearing the name of the Peter Bent Brigham hospital, Boston. We wish to express to vou our profound gratitude for your generous gift.and to say how touched we are that at such a distance you have had a thought for the ill and the poor of whom we take care. The contents of your case will be particularly useful to us, for in this war time the Sisters of St. Vincent de Paul of the Dis- pensary Yvonne Marig have much work to carry on and your help is most valuable to them. Beside the dispensary, where more than 100 dressings are made every morning for the soldiers, the refugees, and the sick of the neighborhood, the Sisters have a school of 700 children, an or- phanage for 50 young girls, a nursery for 45 babies, a shelter for little chil- dren, a scholars’ canteen, a work bu- reau, where more than 150 women come three times a week to get work, and in addition to all this visits to the poor have to be made. And to maintain all this we have only con- tributions which people choose to make us. Accept therefore our ut- most gratitude for the help America has given our dear country.” 3 such | romptness, ease and certainty that it | Mrs. Joseph Linden Smith, who spent two months in Paris this fall, writes: “The Surgical Dressings Committee has its own depot in Paris, which has just been moved into new quarters in the Rue de la Faisanderie. Bvery one is enthusiastic about our organiza- tion. “I was much impressed by the sys- tem that Mrs. Austin shows in her running of this depot. She furnishes each hospital and the surgeons in it with the kind of things they ask for without suggesting some substitute, Therefore all the surgeons apply to her committee first for supplies, knowing that they will be up to stand- ard. The sterilization plant is splendidly installed. ' ° “We go into four or five rooms, the ouvroirs, in each a group of from ten to twenty women working. In one we see two old Belgian' ladies over sev- enty, refugees who before the war lived in Brussels and were rich, with many servants and carriages. Now they are very glad to come for the afternoon hourg of paid assistants which are one to six, for a franc and a half with a cup of tea included. In other room we see a French baronne, also glad of the independence of the work. , She is now penniless. We hear no complaint in these ouvoirs, againt a patient acceptance of the sac- rifice La France has demanded of them., These are the best set of refu- gee women workers we have seen, most of them people of refine- ment who before the war lived in comfort, and often luxury. Therefore it is a pleasure to see Mrs. Austin’s committee so efficiently helping them in the pleasant surroundings of this well-equipped establishment. “Mrs. Austin spoke with admiration of the persistent and loyal work of | her New England committees, pack- age after package arriving from them, always up to standard; quantity and quality equally satisfactory. “Mrs. Bliss' American Distributing Service delivers the supplies for this committee with their motor service and Mr. Dodge told me it was always a pleasure to handle the packages from the Surgical Dressings Commit- tee as Mrs., Austin had so many in- genius methods for doing them up to make them serviceable and easily em- ploved when they reached the sur- geon’s hand. “We leave this establishment sure in our own mind- that Mrs. Austin | thoroughly understands her job and that each package of dressings going out from her committee used by the surgeons is giving some soldier the best chance possible for his wound to heal without infection.” The New Britain Branch of the New England Committee will be glad to receive the names of volunteer H.

The trousers, bought from a Main strect morn- clothing house earlier in the evening, were found in a bundle near the fire alarm box shortly after the alarm was sent in and turned over to Policeman Thoras Dolan. The tag indicated that the contents were purchased in a lo- cal store and, with this as a basis, De- {ective Richardson ccnducted a quiet search, found the clerk who made the le and got a description of Smith.

Captain Eddie Driggs of Princeton expects a fdst nine although his team bas suffered greatly by graduation. The principal task will be to develop a pitching staff as Link, who carried most of the work last season, has gone. R. L. Thompson is a veteran of other seasons and from the former freshmen G. W. Parmalee and C. H. Savagaex, a staff will be picked. Unless a catcher is found Driggs will go from shortstop to behind the bat. Scully is a veteran first base- man, but the ¢only other available men are the outfielders—Lee, Keating and Tibbett. men are Bade Banham, Hewett Mad- den and Tyler. Brown will have a nine that will compare favorably with the football squad of last fall. Every position wil be filled by a veteran. The pitch- ing staff will have Denison Richards, end Flanders, all experienced twirlers. De Vitalis formerly at Exeter, comes from the academy with a big reputa- tion on the mound and Fuller is an- other cood pitcher. Fienberg and Donavan will fight it out for the catching position.
