Miss Harl was four years overseas in the service of the French army and was stationed in Albania, the Balkans, Odessa and Paris. Her experiences have been most unique as she has .served in a capacity which was never opened to any other woman. Although sent to the front as a "nurse, she was made the chauffeur of the 'commandant de la place," where she was in service. Such a thing as a road is unknown in Albania and mountain trails, so narrow that two people may not pass, are the only avenues of travel. Miss Hart was in Odessa after the signing of the armistice which was the only active front at that time. The troopa were sent to check and drive back the bolshevists, but did neither, says this plucky lit tle woman. As to what a bolshevist is, Miss Harl would welcome a defi nition. Her only knowledge of them consists in the facts that she knows that they kill all wounded men and women and that they do not respect the Red Cross or any other kind of ambulance or hospital. Although she did not make a speech, preferring to be "under a fire" of questions, Miss Harl told many facts concerning her varied career. Miss Ella Fleishaman, who was ETY nverceac with the Tewish Welfare board, spoke of her work in France and Mrs. Albert 'Swalm, aunt of Miss Ruth Mills and who was in England during the entire war, spoke of the work there. This was the first of a series of luncheons to be given by the Woman's Press club during the winter. Engagement Announced. Mr. and Mrs. Walter S. Stone of Council Bluffs announce the en gagement of their daughter, Miss Mary Birch Stone, to Mr. John Shaw Broeksmit of Chicago.

The teas are regularly? given on Tuesday afternoons, but owing to the departure of Mrs. Wuest's parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Strong, the affair was postponed untu Wednesday. Mbs Gaile Churchill of Alberton, Mont., is the guest of her sister, Mfs. H. R. Wells, and Lieutenant Wells. Major and Mrs. W. A.
