* NOTES OF WOMEN'S UNITED * WAR WORK. * * ? ? * Mrs. N. B. Dial, the wife of th< tfnited States Senator-elect and Y. W C. A. district chairman has written the following short article about tin spelendid war work of the Y. W. C A The Y. W. C. A. has had 50 years experience with girls, but the prob lems of this war for democracy de mands all its accumulated wisdom an< lore. From every part of the countn young women and mere girls have an swered the ''call to colors" as eagerl; oq thoir hwfhp.rs. anH are inerea&m< in the same ratio as the lads ii fchaki. They number now one millioi and a half. They are malting shells "welding motor cylinders, grinding brass castings, workng drill-presses and milling machines, putting motoi cylinders through the water test, var nishing air-planes, doing eamouflag< painting-anc! all this necessary wai vork with marvelous skill and deftness.

'Before the wa: there were "fifty thousand girls in Detroit shops; now it is not known how many there are?such an army the? have become. Who is the guardian of these inex perienced young people in this perplexing period of their lives? At Bush Terminal, Long Island, ter thousand women work. Prom fifty ol its factories war orders are rushed or ^ to huge trucks. The neighborhood is noisy by day, deserted and dreary bj night. What of these girls who ar<: not wanted anywhere as boarders be cause of such early breakfasts? There's nothing beautiful or pleas . ant about shop work and since girls are eirls always they need some fur and brightness in the rest hours aftei a monotonous day's work. They mus; have something outside of "tim< clocks" and "output". They are benefitted by association in groups, whict n? vny have never had, and which thej often fear, saying they do not know how to act. "Who is there to wisely direct theii leisure, thus in a measure supple menting home influence Y. W. C.

They know that first the physical needs must be ministered to, with comfortatjgpftousing. feeding, gymnasium, etc.;- that the mental and social sides must be stimulated with stud? classes?and association with others of better opportunities?of more refinement.

On Tuesday, October 1st, 1918, Karl Long-, tbe son of iMr. and Mrs. H. T Long, was caught by the hand of an j angel and lifted to a higher plane of service. Ten years seems a short life; but, 1 "if we live in deeds not years," and measure Karl's life by this standard, T it reaches to the measure of a man's. 2 Truly, he was a manly boy! Among j his prominent characteristics were i. iT-f.. 1 3 miltinfr , iruimuiiie&s, uucuicuuc, <mu , ness. He possessed a rare combination of high ability, gentleness of marr ner, courtesy, happ? heartedness, and love of play. Winning the love of all 1 who knew him and bacuse of hi3 j rnacnetio nersonaitlv he ws? s leader' among his playmates. In every phase of his school, Sunday school, and home life he did his part cheerfully and well. Karl loved his country with, an enthusiastic and loyal devotion?always eager and willing to help, quiet to spond to each patriotic appeal, earning , j the money and giving it gladly. ] .So, does this not seem a complete | and well spent life, a fulfillment of j God's plan for him? Beyond he will" be in the service of his iSaviour. Sure, ly Jesus wanted just now the help of f one of our brightest "Sunbeams!" For the sweetness and helpfulness of his little life he will be missed; for j his nobleness be will be remembered | "By and by, for those who love him, He will come, some happy day,? ; Lead them to the pleasant pastures I , Of the land not far away. ; j Oh, the safe and happy children, r In the land not far away! Years after the death of a sweet child, Dr. John A. Broadus remarked that the remembrance of the dear little (jirle had doubtless been a great er blessing to him spiritually than her life would have been, had she fteen . spared to live on with him. Hard as it is 10 part wna our aear ones, 1 am sure that 'the experience of Dr r Broadus is often verified in the Christian's life, here in this world. The spirit of the departed may seem as guardian angels about us, while we plod on our way, in sin and sorrow, towards the heavenly home. A Friend. Wounded In France. Mr. David S. Teague lias received a card stating that his son David McClure Teague had been slightlywounded and was in the base hospital and doing well.
