Aren't tne summer frocks dainty? Just find comfortable wicker chair m some se- eluded spot on the club veranda and watch the fashion parade go by. Such smart sown in ginghams and lawns, with oows of the same ma terial, poised like Huge butterflies at the waist.- The summery white net gowns with their wide sashes ot pink and blue are attractive and the darker presses in silk and satin are the last word in chicness. The military capes one sees on chilly, evenings ,are very alluring. Mrs. Charles T. Kountze has such a pretty one, and Mrs. How ard Baldridge looks especially Stun ning in hers. Mrs, A. V. Kinsler and Mrs. Louis Clarke; also favor the graceful cape. ,, t.AIiss Florence Rahm has a charm ing guest, Miss Sophia Assman'of St. Louis, and, numbers of mid-summer affair are being planned for her. Miss Rahm entertained a few friends at luncheon at the County club for Miss Assman Saturday, when the table was so attractive with its basket of gar den flowers.

Dr. Pinto served through the long cam paign in the Philippines at surgeon with -volunteers and so i familiar with army life and the duties that fall to a medical officer.

Ba baa two aona In tba army.) The plump little person who served me my equally plump baked apple in the Community House at Chillicothe, O., told me that her husband was a private in the army. "And where is he stationed '" I asked. "Right here at Camp Sherman," she demurely answered. "Oh, indeed. And are you permit ted to see him much?" "Certainly," she replied. "He can come to my room every evening between eight and ten, and can spend two nights a week with me." "Is that so? And where is your room?" "Why, right over there in the Y. W. C A. building." . "Excuse me, my child," I said, "but how long have you been married?" "Since last June," she replied. "How many lumps of sugar please? ' "No sugar," said I, "I like the taste of what I am drinking, and sua neutralizes the taste. Are any o!hev of the girls here married to coi diers?" "Why, we all are!" smiled back the plump little body. "We are all war brides. There are only four g'rls in this building who are not married tu soldiers." And that is why I went to see the local representative of the War Camp Community Service, and learned from him that five hundred wives of youn soldiers are being employed in ana adjacent to Camp Sherman at Chilli cothe. I cast my eye about on the young women who check the coats, answer the telephones, wait on table and sell the goods in the Post Ex changes and I asked more questions, Takes No Chances. It seems that the government is taking no chances of losing perfectly good soldiers through debauchery and bad habits indulged in during their leisure hours. The War Camp Community Serv'ce was organized under the Commissions on Training Camp Activities of the War and Navy departments to throw helpful influen ces about our boys, and to steer them straight in their pleasures as well as their duties. The above is one of the many ways in which War Camp Com munity Service is doing this, and the thing is working well So mucmso that I am sure quite a percentage of our young soldiers are leading clean er lives in the army than they did at home. Chillicothe was no "spotless town." It was like the average small city Then suddenly it bustled and whirled with the activity of building a huge camp for many thousands of men receiving those men and making a profit out of the job. Public spirit in Chillicothe was neither low nor high. It was average; which gem erally means that what , is the bust ness of the United States government is not the affair of the local dry goods merchant or druggist However, along came a couple of men, itrangers to Lhiui.ot-.e, and proceeded to get into its good graces and to organize it These two men were L. H. Weir and W. C, Miller, hired and sent there by War Camp Community Service and they knew how to do it They enlisted the sup port of the Red Cross and secured a building two hundred feet lon. buik in the shape of the-Greek crosai located on land leased by the gov ernment justt outside the cantonment limits and within a thousand feet 1 several barracks. This is the Com munity House, the ground floor of which can be and is used for a huge hatl for assemblies and dances. . Hither come the wives, mothers, sisters and sweethearts of the men and visit over week ends, or at any time, and here come the soldiers to meet them. It steadies and heartens the men and it no less steadies and heartens the folks back home. Do they come?" They certainly do. They quickly filled the Community House, and the demand caused the building of additional rooming houses form ing a hollow square nearby. The Y. W. C.VA. built a house for 125 people; the Masons built one for 60; the D. A. R. one for 100; the city of Columbus one for 60. Entertainment. The houses are unpainted but not crude. The furnishings are not ex pensive, but they are tasteful. The effect is that of a great summer ho tel. 'A single room rents for one dollar a night, a double room for a dollar and a half. The project i. self-supporting. Here ming.e without formality or embarrassment in com mon dances and restaurant service the officer and the private. We t.re in the war to make democracy pos sible, and this Community House at Chillicothe is certainly doing its bit to encourage democracy in our army And the general? The commanding general? How does he view this ar rangement? But for the general the thing would never have happened In fact General E. F. Glenn who is in charge of the camp is more re sponsible for the success of the en deavor than any other one persi .. He endorsed it heartily and threw the weight of his influence in its favor Incidentally, the general's daughter was married in the Community House. The question that is being asked now is: "Does it pay?" Can we afford these seeming luxuries? In answer let me say that the two watchwords of our army must be morals and morale The boys in camp at Chillicothe are nearly all from Ohio, and it is pos sible for their "women folks" to visit them often. This keeping in touch with mother, with wife, sister or sweetheart does wonders in sustain ing morale. It drives away homesick ness. It makes the soldier "stick"; he keeps his nerve; he keeps his health. And as for morals? "Mother is coming to see me next week," said a husky six footer in khaki to me. "I sure will be glad to see her." And I looked in his glad eyes and his wholesome face, and I said to myself: "Yes, it pays." D. A. R. Card Party.
