Women and gtrla who have left
homes and CamlUea to engage in
war work may beeome the "for
gotten people’’of this generation,
warns lUss meahof Neff, of the
uethodlst Women’s Society of
ctunstlaii Serrlee, urging churches
everywhere to go out and draw
them into active membership.
When a patlUnt ioes to a hos-
piui In Paris these days, he is ex
pected to take his bed sheets along
with him," says Mrs. Marc Boeg-
ner, wife of the head of the
rTench Proteatant Federation,
now visiting America. She Is sug
gesting that American women
share sheeting, towels, blankets
and quUts with the families of
pastor, some of them retugees^n
not only France, but also in Bel
gium and Holland. “Tliere could
hardly be a greater act of mend-
ship on the part of American
women than to share their bed-
linen with these distressed fami
lies," she says. The interdenomi
national church committee on
overseas relief and reconstruction
Is co-operating With this request
of Mrs; Boegner by making their
depot (United Church Service,
New Windsor, Maryland) a receiv
ing point for these supplies for
Ifiurope.
The Chinese women, many of
them educated in America, who
comprise the board of the Y.W.
C.A. in Uhengtu, West China, have
been meeting and conquering un
familiar problems In entertaining
Gl's In that ancient and conserva
tive center. They have learned
tnat the Americans want to date,
to dance, to consume coffee and
doughnuts. But the conservative
community does not approve dat
ing of people of such different tra-
tltions as lonely Americans and
refugee Chinese girls; the Chinese
government has banned dancing
for the duration; and neither cof
fee nor doughnuts are available.
So a committee of young married
Chinese women act as hostesses
at the YW for “Saturday-after-
noon-at-home” gatherings. Pro
grams of Chinese music, concerts,
shadow boxing, sword play, ping-
pong, table football, bridge, chess,
etc., are arranged, and sometimes
hostesses help the Americans in
their shopping for gifts for moth
ers, sweethearts, etc. Everything
seems to be successful except the
