We've got the biggest man-sized Job you ever tlons. You're going straight with the Home Service. Something useful and human? Why, In a week this thing will be gripping you so that you'll eat and sleep it I ' n. The Home Service Section of a big Red Cross chapter was In Besslon. As Smith and I arrived they were discuss ing the problem of a soldier's wife and six children found living In two tene ment rooms In a building that rad been condemned because of a leaky roof, mouldy floor and lack of Are protection. They bad sold most of their furniture piece by piece for current living ex penses. The children had no change of clothing. There was no income and, be cause of the mother s condition, no pos sibility of one, except the expected allot ment and allowance, whicn even wnen It came would not entirely meet the cost of living In the city. The Home Service worker bad given a generous sum or money to meet the urgent needs, and now the committee was planning to rent better quarters, move the fami ly, secure medical and nursing atten tion for the Woman, outfit them all With clothing and furniture and keep regularly in touch with the family.

Some attorney had told him be would get compensation for him on a flfty-flf- ry basis, but the lawyer-member or tne Home 8ervlce Section helped him fill out ihe proper form which the Red Cross office supplied and assured him that no discharged soldier or soldier's benefldarj should ever pay for col "BLUE BONNETS" 'k 1 ; Iwll'l,!"
