There Is a persistent effort in tha navy depuriment " to. do away with many of the naval statlons along the coust, and it yas only a short time ago that an attempt to abolish the Thames river coaling station was frustrated by Congressman Higgins, The naval anpropriation bill, whieh will soon be | reported, plans to abandon five naval stations, and the department is anx- | fous that the legislation be put through | this session. Included in the five is the station on the Thames above New London, conomy is the reason as- signed. Thew abandonment of the station should and undoubtedly will be op- posed, but how successfully it can be done remaing to be seen. The land where the coaling station is was given to the government “to be held by the United States for naval purposes.” A million and a half has been expended including $130,000 & dozen or ago for the present coaling In the gift it was stipu- that the land should be held for |n purpose, the abandonment ns the throwing away of all claim | to the property.

It was as though she were about to burst with some great triumph. “What's yours?” they asked in chorus. It was a great moment for Rosie. Never till she had gone to work in the cigar factory had she ever had a cent of her own. And since that dawn of financial independence few of the dol- lars she had earned had remained in her possession. When there is a large and bungry brood of young brothers and sisters at home and a head of the house conspicuous by his absence, things go rather badly. Rosie had helped her mother, as was expected of her. Never had she enjoyed the de- lirium of a shopping expedition, for her clothes all her life had been the made over and handed down articles given to her mother by the families for which she washed and ironed. ~ To Rosie clothes had never presented themselves as a source of pleasure; they were rather a necessity and a nuisance and they were invariably ugly. But this year—it was not for nothing that she had painstakingly saved from the incessant demands on her small wages each week! Patience and persistence were among her vir- tues. iy spring hat!” Rosie repeated with a delightful air of nonchalance. “Oh, I'm going to have a straw hat with a real plume on it, a willow plume!” The other girls stared at her in awed silence. Then envy swept away their surprise. “Ain't she stylish, though cried the girl on the left, shrilly Rosie knew in that moment com- pensation for some things that she had always missed in life. “It's so long,” she measured with her hands. She smiled dreamily. Another week and the sum necessary for the purchase of the feather would be in her hand. Li was decidedly worth living. Moreover, it wWas joy to her soul to outshine for once the other girls in the factory, whose glances at her attire were uni- formly contemptuous. Perhaps with the hat on her head the foreman would conclude that she was well worth pausing to laugh and talk with at noontimes as he laughed and talked with the others. He was a good look- ing foreman, too. Hurrying home at dusk that night, Rosie stumbled over a younger brother standing at a corner window with his face glued againet the glass. “Whoatchu doin’ here, kid?" she de- manded. Joseph kicked one wornout shoe and edged away. “Aw, gee!” he sald, thickiy. “Wish't I could get a pair! The window had an enticing display of roller skates and the card an- nounced that they were $1.50 a pair. They might as well have been 31,000,- 000 80 far as Joseph was concerned. He followed Rosle home unwillingly. At supper he was silent and absorbed. T s'pose,” Rosle said to herself, “that he is a8 crazy about those skates as I was_about my willow plume! Say— the kid Fasn’t never had anything any more than I have!" This was a new and surprising thougit. Rosle realized that not she alone had been deprived of desirable thinge. She felt sorry for Joseph. Hi face was glued to the window again when she came home the next night. Joseph, of course, did not really need the skates. Rosle assured herself of this several times during the next day. They were & luxury and he had a long life ahead of him to work for luxuries. It was merely fate that had provided him with a face that looked pathetic and wistful. If he had been snub- nosed and fat Rosie knew it would not seem half so sad to think of Joseph being deprived of the wish of his heart. Besides, it really was vastly more important that she should have decent clothes 5o that a young man would not te ashamed to be seen with her. Rosie went home that night with the Test of the money necessary for the purchase of the willow plume tucked away in the corner of her handker- chief. Already she tilted her head as she would be obliged to do to balance the floating feather jauntily. Joseph was not at the window. the rickety doorstep sitting with his chin in his hands quite like a despon- dent old man. When she spoke to him he did not raise his eyes. “Aw, gee!” he grumbled, and_there were tears in the gruff words. In the distance some boys shot down the stroet on skates. Rosle stood and looked at him irresolutely for a min- ute. Then she turned. “Come on, kid,” she ordered, brusquely. “I don’t see any feather,” cried the gir who had envied Rosie's description of her spring hat. “Where's the feather you were talking so gay about Rosle gave her a haughty glance. Then she said in a bored way: “T de- cided that 1 &dn’t want anything so common as a plume. These here little blue flowers are more genteel!”"—Chi- cago News. a few years you will cease complain- ing of lack of opportunity.

Mr. Editor: The newspapers of the smaller towns throughout the country are frequently solicited to insert read- ing advertisements for the Philadelphia school for nurses, located at 2,219 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, and as it poses as a beneflcent and charitable institution these advertisements are inserted free of charge. The visitor of the Pennsylvania state | board of charities in a report says: mitted to the directory for nurses con- nected with the College of Physicians, Philadelphia, nor are they recognized by the Pennsylvania state board of ex- aminers for registration of nurses. I have siven you this tnformation for the reason that poor and ambitious Young women, attracted by the advant- ages set forth in the free advertise- ments inserted in the newspapers all over the country, with great effort travel long distances to attend this school, in the hope of becoming trained nurses, only to find after entering that they are giving their time and work to an institution which does not educate and equip them for the profeskion of nursing. In the interest of these youns wom- en of your locality I would ask that you give this statement as much pub- licity as possible. WILLIAM §. HIGBEE, M. D.
