PUTNAM VRITES FIRST ROMANCE "The Smiting' of the Rock" Received by Friends of Versatile Author. Possible lines of war service for college girls during the long summer vacation are suggested by Mis Clar-i lbel Nye, of the Home Conservation f division of the United States Food Administration. . . "Each girl should decide in what branch of work she has the most ability." said Miss Nye. "The home demonstration agents need girls who have had training in home econo mics, public speaking. English, and Journalism. They need, also, girls who have ability to organize or to arrange things attractively : for ex hibits and fairs. "To those who have nothing defi nite in mind I suggest that they hunt up the home demonstration of fice, usually found In the Farm Bu reau, if they live in a rural commun ity, or to find the urban agent. If they live in a city. Should there be no urban agent in her town, a girl should look up the woman who rep resents the food administration. "There is a. demand for volunteers to act as assistants to the local au thorities engaged in the work of the food adminitsration. In almost every county In every state home demon stration agents are overworked and need help badly. "If id college a girl has shown any ability in research, she ran help greatly in standardizing recipes which are sent in by housekeepers and in assisting the agent in prepara tions for demonstrations. No good agent ever goes out to give a demon stration without having first made careful preparation for it.

In addi tion to this contributions aggregat ing many hundreds of dollars have been given to the regular Red Cross campaigns, to the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. to the Armenian-Syrian relief, and to other war causes. But It was emphasized that this Friends reconstruction work, a part of the Red Cross and under its direction, is Friends peculiar work, and that in supporting it the past year. Friends have given five times as much per capita as the rest of the United States has given to the regu lar Red Cross work. Mennonites Co-operate A number of Mennonites were present as visitors when this report was presented. This sett, which holds the same views as Friends on the subject of peace, are contributing regularly to the Friends reconstruc tion work. They have given $38, 000 during the past three months, and some of the Mennonites young men are in the work In France with the Friends. The business of the meeting has been transacted with the greatest harmony throughout, and from every standpoint this annual gathering has been a very successful one. the food administration. "The girl who held offices at col lege Is usually a good organizer. The ability to organize can be utilized in completing communities for food con servation. - This community commi ttee is the last link In the chain be tween the housekeeper and the federal-organization for food conserva tion.

In presenting this novel he does bo under the name of Palmer Hend. a designation which speaks for itself to those mho know the author. Although Mr. Putnam ha been tb author of a number of looks. particularly on travel, and also r. number of short stories, this is his first attempt at a novel. His friends, who have been Interested in his oth er works, have been surprised at Mr. Putnam's first adventure in the land of romance. Not because it la not up to the standard of hi precellng works, but because it Is better, ever so much better in fact. And this Is not said to disparage his former efforts. It may be said disinterestedly thai Mr. Putnam's first efiort at novel writing, has caused him to hit a stride that Is worthy a second at tempt. m M. The book "The Smiting of the Hock" Is a tale of Oreon. of love, of Irrigation, and of strong men. and an equally strong, and Incidentally, a beautiful woman: Another woman than the heroine appears in the book, and for a time" she holds the hero attention, but it Is the beautiful face ard fceautiful character of the Ore gon girl that charms and holds.

To ail outward appearances the Austrian offensive in the' Italian theatre has met with failure all along the front from the Venetian Alps to the Adriatic sea. - In the hill region additional ground has been recaptured from th invaders, while alone the Piave river where intensive fighting Is In pro gress, at some points with fluctuat ing results, the balance sceius to sway In favor of th Italians.1 South and east of .Aslaro. the French , and Italians have retaken Pennar.- Hertlgo and. Costalanga. past which the Anstrians had hoped to push their front and gain the As tlco river valley, which leads to VI cenza on the plains below. Not alone were the positions re gained, but more than 200 prisoners fell Into the hands of the allied troops. On their nart over the entire mountain region, the Austrians have remained quiet except when com pelled to go on the defensive and then their efforts to bold back their antagonists have lacked the stamina usual In men whose hearts are In their task. This condition has pre vailed since the first onslaught of the enemy was summarily stopped by the fire of the British. French and Italian forces forming the bar rier to the Venetian plains. More heart Is belag thrown Into and spoke on the workings of the or ganizatlon throughout the state. Mrs. Catner recently returned from a meting of the national of fleers ol the defense council held tn Washington and was able to tell as iubly Just what the government exieted of members throughout the countryy It was uitinimonsly vo ted at the meeting that the body lend its aid tn retaining the services of Miss Edna Mills os federal food administrator for Polk county and committees will wait on county court at a future date and see If that body will lend necessary financial snp- Miss Mill's salary is paid by the fed eral government and ' all asked o tne county is travelling expenses which would amount to something like ISO a month.

Heso he still seems, notwithstanding hi heavy louses and numerous repulse on various sectors, bent on throwinc his armies across the stream or pushing further westward with those of his force who have already rorded It. Nevertheless, further setback's to the Austrians have fol lowed those of the past days on tbe Montello. where the Italians are vlc ioiisIv deputing the right of way to t, niiinn Ukewlse. near the fa tuous Zenson loop, farther down the stream, the enemy's heavy attacks have been held and under tbe Impe tus of the Italian counter-blows, he has fallen back nearer the river for rolnrorrements hastily brought up.
