Church Club Buys Liberty Bond.
K. P. C. C. club sounds very mys
terious, but it is really very simple.
Remnant of the Pilgrim Congrega
tional Church is the name that the in
itials stand for and the little club is
composed of 19 women who
worked together in this church which
was located at Forty-first and Dodge
streets about sixteen years ago. When
the church disbanded the members
scattered to other denominations, but
these 19 women have not drift
ed apart, for they have met once a
month at each other's homes just for
the sake of "auld lang syne."
Sewing has been done in the past at
the meetings for certain needy fami
lies which have been brought to the
attention of the club. Imbued with
the spirit of patriotism they have de
cided to buy a Liberty bond and the
members will be taxed 25 cents a
month to help pay for it. Orders for
comforts will also be taken to help
swell the bond fund.
Mrs. Josephine Carr is the presi
dent of this enterprising group of
women and Mrs. George Hurd is sec-
.'.retary.
The others members are: Mrs. C.
C. Shimer, Mrs. Elizabeth Tyner,
Mrs. W. A. Wilcox, Mrs. Thomas
Dunlop, Mrs. Alice Shaddock, Mrs.

Advice to Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. -Make
Your Brother Work.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a girl of 20, seek
ing advice. I have a brother who is just 22.
Ha Is very attractive looking and of course
the girls are crazy about him. Having lost
both our parents we wore shifted about. I
try and keep home just as mother did, but
my brother refuses to work. Now Miss
Fairfax, I cannot keep home on 10 a week
and support two. By that I mean my
brother wants a new suit every two weeks
or hat, shoes, etc. He does not think that
I have to work hard as a bookkeeper for
that money. I've tried to tell him, but he
told a young man that works in my place
of business, "What la the good of working
when your slater works for you?" I felt
hurt over that remark and I spake to hlra.
He says he will not work as long as he Is
at home. It Would break my heart to turn
him out, as he was mother's Ideal.
i HEART BROKEN SISTER.
From what you write, I gather that your
brother la a weakling of that contemptible
sort that gladly permits a woman to work
for his support In allowing this, you are
doing the boy s, frightful lnjustlo. No man
who has real respect for himself will let
a' woman work to support hlra. In work
lng that he may be Idle, you are en
couraglng the boy, in his desire for life
with ease and luxury, and in a selfish and
even vicious reeling that It dosen't matter
who works for him as long as her work In
sures him freedom from responsibility.
Tou aren't being fair to your mother
when you encourage your brother In his
contemptible stand. Of course she wouldn't
want the boy she Idolized to turn Into the
sort of creuture he seems to be. Can't you
make him recognize that he la harming no
one so much as himself that be la spoiling
his own future and cutting himself off
from any chance of growing into some use
ful and paying occupation which would let
him be a respected citizen some day? Can't
you stir his ambition and give him a pic
ture of himself as a man who accomplishes
things and is looked up to by people?
If kindness won't help, he must be forced
to make his own way. He may have to
learn In the school of hardship and ad
versity, but he must be saved from turning
Into the most contemptible of all creatures,
a man who sits back In callous brutality
and lets a woman slave to support him.
Go to Her Parents.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am engaged to a girl
It years of age and have known her for four
years. We have been going out together until
recently, when for some reason or other her
parents have forbidden her to go out with
me alone. There hasn't been any explana
tion on her parents' part except what I
bear from her, as she Is the only daugh
ter. I think the disappearance of so many
young girls has taken a deep effect upon
them. I am dearly in love with the girl
and I know my love la reolprocated. It
would simply be useless for us to separate,
I am In a good position and am well able
to support a wife, therefore I would like
your advice. . 8. C. W.
If you have a perfectly clear conscience,
as your let'.er leads me to suppose you have,
the explanation may be what you suggest
In any event, the thing for yon to do is to
go to the girl's parents and ask them if they
really mean to separate you from the
daughter you love and want to marry. By
the way, have you ever gone to her par
ents and told them of your Intentions and
hopes in regard to their daughter T

about the men who furnish only chin music

CAMPFIRE GIRLS
TO GIVE A PARADE
By ADELAIDE KENNERLY.
A UTILE 8UCB O LIFE.
She had three heavy bundles
And she was a frail little thing.
She got off the car at my street and
I offered to carry tna heavy bundles
In addition to my own. when I saw she
Was going my way.
A large gentleman had got off the car
Just when we did and he burcled on up
the street
In the bundles she had three electric flat
irons And several dictionaries, I thought.
It was a back-breaking trip of five blocks.
The large man ahead of us turned in at a
gate.
When we came to same gate the turned In
And said: "I live here. Thank you so
much."
"But the Mg guy who turned in hero?"
I said.
"The man who got off the car when we
did.
He turned In here, too."
"Tes," she replied sweetly. "He's my hus
band, And he just hates to carry packages
Through the street Thank you so much."
Roy K. Moulton, of the New
York Evening Mail staff, wrote the
above. Roy knows more than a wee
bit about these uneven slices o' life,
too. He observes.
Now that Uncle Sam is calling
our boys and young men in such
great numbers to the front, the little
fellows and the women are asked
to "fall in line and help."
Are they doing it?
Well, 1 want to announce to the
world that they arel
Boys are being excused from
school to help on the farms during
the harvesting season.
Boys are working after school on
delivery wagons.
Boys are turning in and doing
work that men did prior to the call
to the colors.
Women are stepping into posi
tions which were formerly held by
men in order that the "American
machinery" may be kept in running
order; that our boys in service may
be clothed and properly fed; that
the little children's education may
go on just the same as in normal
times.
In the homes women are doubling
their activities and rallying to the
"cause" in fine style. They arc
carrying home many of their bun
dles; they are shopping more con
sistently than ever before; they are
more reasonable and less prudish.
The women and children are
coming through with colors fly
ing, but how about the men who
are under the exemption line be
cause of their age or physical de
fects or some other reason? We
have a certain class of men who
furnish chin music and little else.
They shout about Germany, they
applaud the allies and talk conser
vation and what-not, but when it
comes right down to brass tacks,
what arc they doing to win the
war? Many of the are not even
willing to carry their bundles home
because of false pride.
Every time 1 see a man carrying
unruly packages home through the
crowd, and on a crowded car, 1
cannot help believing that he is do
ing his bit and maybe his most.
Anyway he doesn't belong to Rov
K. Moulton's "Little Slice o' Life"
kind of men. He is doing more
than furnishing chin music for the
tramp of loyal feet who carry their
bundles.
It is up to the women, sometimes,
to point out to their husbands, and
sons, and brothers, which slice of
life they belong to. Now is the
time to start.

Boy Scouts of America
Will Compel U. S. Boy
Scouts to Change Name
The Boy Scouts of America has be
gun a suit to protect its name and the
words "Boy Scouts" and "scouting."
This action is brought by Its attorney,
former Justice Charles E. Hughes,
against the "United States Boy Scout."
The Boy Scouts of America lias a
federal charter and is the only boys'
organization in the United States spe
cifically authorized to wear a uniform
any part of which is similar to the
uniform of the United States navy,
army or marine corps. There are
now 258,891 Scouts in the organiza
tion, with 11,474 scoutmasters and
about 70,000 members of troop com
mittees and other local officials, in
2,000 towns and cities. Since the start
of the scouting movements less than
a decade ago this organization has led
about 375,000 other boys through the
program of scouting.
These men and boys are conscien
tiously devoting themselves to the
program of scouting as it is commonly
understood the world over and as pro
moted by Lieutenant General Sir Rob
ert S. S. Baden-Powell since 1907 in
England, The Boy Scouts of Amer
ica form a part of the world brother
hood of scouting, the different mem
bers of which follow the same pro
gram. The movement in this country was
incorporated February 8, 1910, with
the patronage and support of Gen
eral Baden-PowelL Its honorary of
ficers are President Woodrow Wil
son, former Presidents Theodore
Roosevelt and William H. Taft and a
large number of the governors of varr
ous states.
The Boy Scouts of America has no
time nor desire to interfere with any
organization which is helping boys.
All the boys m all the boys organiza
tions in the country form only a small
oercentaee of the boys who need di
rection in their activities and char
acter development There is plenty of
room for every legitimate and usetui
boys organization. It should be made
clear to the public that tms is not a
row between rival organizations. It
is an attempt to protect boys from
being misled and to protect contrib
utors against the possibility of hav-
ing funds intended for the support of
the genuine Boy Scout movement
used for some other purpose.
The value of the Boy Scout move
ment as an educational agency for
boys in the development of their char
acter and in training them for the re
sponsibilities of citizenship is depend
ent upon the ability of the organiza
tion to maintain high standards and
to insure the carrying out of the pro
gram in a thorough fashion. It was
because of the importance of this that
congress saw the wisdom of grant
ing a federal charter and it was be
cause of the responsibilities that this
charter imposes that the Boy Scouts
of America has taken steps to com
pel the United States Boy Scouts to
change its name. , '
