American Women May Now Do Great Service For French Women and Girls "Now is the time for American women to help French women and, girls." says" Miss Henrietta Roelofs, head of the Y. W. C. A. work in France, now in this country'on leave of absence. Miss Roelofs was form erly of Grand Rapids, Mich., where she was graduated from Erie college and later became a teacher. "Everybody who knows the present industrial and home condi tions in France, is asking what French girls are going to do now that the war is over" says Miss Roelofs. Five years ago French girls were being sheltered in their work hours and supervised by their mothers and guardians in their free time. "All this is changed. Today, French girls are working in factor ies by thousands, not only on day but also on night shifts. Nearly. a million girls worked in French munition factories during, the war. "Fourteen, thousand girls are em ployed in the offices of the ministry of war in" Paris and thousands mdre of them are working in offices of other cities, side by side with men, as French girls never worked before. ' "All these things are new in France. Even home life is altered. Refugees and the various armies which include vast numbers of mechanics, clerical workers and professional men who have followed" the soldiers in numbers second only to the fighters themselves, have had to be housed, and France has done no' building since the war began. Living rooms and even dining rooms have been commandeered for lodg ers, t "All these changes have come so suddenly that France has had no opportunity to evolve a welfare system such as American and Great Britain have worked out from eco nomic as well as social experience. "For a year and a half in neajly fifty different centers, the Y. W. C. A. has been in the 'heartening' bus iness over there. It has provided recreation centers for women in factories. The majority of these centers and many- more like them will be needed for the trying days of reconstruction when French girls must adjust themselves to a new world with untried living conditions "The French Y. W. C. A. has re ouestcd that the American Y. W. C. A. withdraw its support and 'workers very gradually, while French work ers are being trained to take it tip." Providence, R. I., has a woman member on the school committee for the first time in its history. At its station in North Wales the Marconi company has started a school for the training of women in wireless telegraphy.

If there is anvthine on earth that warms the rnr.lrTea nf a man's heart, it is when friends voluntarily' take up his cause and stand ready to- fight f pr him. There is no prettier compliment possible than that those who are in a position to know your innermost thoughts and motives, believe in you so sincerely that they take pains to let you know and let theNvorld know - they are your friends. ' A semi-public institution, such as a large dentaj office is bound to be, naturally is more or less in the limelight ' and .because of the unusual success of this office I have become pretty well known throughout the State ; first because I have advertised extensively ; second be cause my friends and patients have advertised me, and Jast but not least because my ultra-ethical professional brethren have advertised me. As a result people have good, bad or indifferent opin ions about me, and only time can tell whether my friends are,, justified in their confidence in me and whether my enemies' have ulterior motives in seeking to injure my reputation. Frankly, I care little for adverse criticism, especially when motive and source is considered; but in justice to those friends who urge me to tear the mask from those who are fighting me, and show the public who they are and why thy want to suppress this office, I desire to say: "Time will tell the story I would not trade places or conscience with my traducers." In the meantime my patients may be assured that painless dentistry is here to stay. that dental prices are NOT going to be raised.
