I HE future work of the National League for Woman's Service will be centered upon overseas relief work, according to Mrs. Winfield Smith, of Seattle. Northwest chairman, who addressed committee chairmen of the Portland League at a meeting yes terday In the league headquarters at which Mrs. Alice Benson Beach, city chairman, presided. "The league stands for 'aenrlce " as long as we can be of help. Irrespective of whether we are at war or at peace. xaid Mrs. Smith. ".'While every local ity must work out its own problems and will have individual cases to meet. it is not difficult to see that the work of the canteen division and the social welfare division .under the War Camp Community Service will discontinue, as oon as peace is actually signed. "Our last word direct from ' Mr. Hoover, which came a few days before he left for Europe, says that the work ' of our food division is to be more im portant than it ever has been. Women from all over the Northwest are asking me, 'Are : going to feed Germany? I have answered each one of them that, of course, we are to feed Germany. As long as we have food we will not let anyone starve.. We at least can give those people physical support. - "It would be my suggestion." said Mrs. Smith, "that the women who have served in the canteen divisions and in the social welfare divisions and In the other divisions whose work will be ma terially cut down, give thei. time to the making of garments for devastated rance and Belgium. We always have tried to make our work begin where the work of other organizations leaves off and for that reason I would make the suggestion that we giv especial attention to garments for the women. Kvery woman, no matter If she is a peasant or an aristocrat likea a dainty garment. We have had to send only the roughest sort of garments to give these poor creatures protection from the elements. Can't we now send them an occasional dainty garment? These cannot be sent through the American committee for devastated France be cause we must send air garments ac cording to specifications, but we can get some through the Belgium relief committee. "The Seattle chapter has done a won derful work in reconstructing garments for children out of men's shirts wijich we have gathered from the clubs in the city. These we make by the thou sands. We have bought and paid for a bailer. We pack our things in Seattle and ship them direct, preventing delay and congestion in the New York office. If the Portland League wishes to turn its time to making these garments we would be glad to have them sent to Seattle and we will ship them' from there. "We are closely allied to the work of the American Committee of Devas tated Prance through our National treasurer. Miss Anne Morgan. Miss j Morgan Is a National vice-president of I the American committee and Is now in France. Through her come the appeals for garments and she also has sent us word that we must continue with our efforts in the agricultural reconstruc tion of France. The work of the Amer ican committee will continue another two years at the most conservative estimate and we must be ready to give It our support all of that time. "The Kanning Kitchens have been one of the most successful undertak Ings of the league and it has been sug gested that they continue for another Summer at least. While there will not b the hospitals to supply, there is always a good market for home canned fruits and vegetables and I am sure that we can make the Kitchen a valu able source of income. The money can be turned into the overseas division to be devoted to the Belgians and peoples of central Europe. "The work of the kid glove Jackets also must continue until the present supply of gloves Is used up. at any rate. Ae are receiving calls from the nurses and ambulance drivers in Ku rope, who find them an Invaluable pro tection from the cold. "There has been some talk about the Belgian relief work being taken over by the Red Cross, but my latest advices from Washington assure me that this work will continue under its old head for some time to come and that our support will be Just as necessary as it has teen heretofore. The great need is garments for children from 4 to 14 There Is no need for layettes, as there are virtually no little babies in Bel gium any more." Mra smith Is wearing a medal, a re cent decoration from the King of Bel jrium in recognition of her work in the National League for the Belgian Relief Committee, tone described the business ventures of the Seattle league which has established a shop which provides the league with a steady source of Income. Mrs. Alice Benson Beach announced that the motor classes would discon tinue and that the league would move Its headquarters to the seventh floor of the Meier & Frank store Decem ber I. The canteen will be maintained at the Benson Polytechnic School as long- as soldiers are quartered there. Council of Defense Will Con tinue Activities.

Incidents of European War Are Depicted ta Pretty Tableaux. REGOX AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis,' Nov. 22. (Spe cial.) That the ideal that one never hears the shell that gets him is false, is the assertion of Tom Duffy, brother of E. M. Duffy, manager of the busi ness office of the college, in a letter from France. "You certainly can hear them, and the best thing one can do is to fall down on the ground and avoid -the splinters," he writes. "In this . way shells can explode very near orte and do nothing more than scare hell out of him, and maybe give him a little re ligion. I am saying my prayers regu larly myself now. "Foolhardiness is discouraged here, but fear of death is the most useless thing in the world at the front, for the reason that chance plays no favor ites. You hear a big gun 'fire some where away off, and then you hear a shrill whistle, and you wonder if it will land near you, and just then it bursts with a terrific roar some dis tance from you, and whatever it hits goes skyrocketing n little pieces. . "One evening recently I went to the top of a high hill, and for two hours watched the Germans shell an obser vation balloon from a distance of miles. There was absolute quiet, ex cept for the occasional shot at the balloon, which came at about 10-min-ute intervals. "From my place of observation I could see the full moon as it rose in all its glory on one horizon and then look at the sun as it gilded the west in gold before going down. It was all very beautiful, and as one looked over the stU countryside in the enchanting twi- itgntne round it hard to realize that not far away civilization and barbarism were locked in a death grapple. I he dark spots would again appear near the balloon and many seconds after I could hear the faint detonation of the gun. and then several seconds later the shrill whistle of the shell, and then the explosion near the bal loon. The balloon kept shifting its po sition, and you may imagine that there are more pleasant jobs than being up in the air a half mile and having some one fire big shells at you. "The Germans fired about 15 shots at it in two hours, and as darkness closed on the scene the last thing I could see was the balloon still defiantly up. "We were not in bed a half hour before we heard the rattle of machine guns and aircraft guns, followed by the heavy detonation of aircraft bombs, and you should have seen the commo tion as we beat it for the bombproofs. in all stages of dress or undress and I am just as well satisfied that rou have not a picture of yours truly' beating it across the fields, wearing not a great deal besides a gas mask slung over his shoulder."
