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.
"If a girl has any ability to write,
there is a tremendous field for her

have been made by the women among
Friends of this yearly meeting for
the French war victims. 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 girl who held offices at col

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

of being a good mtzer. the value of
any other qualities Is greatly en

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
