THE "SAMMEES”
(By Lawrence Mott of the Vigilantes.)
“Les void! They are coming! Listen
to their song!”
The cry took flight from sobbing
throats
As the "Sammees” swung along.
Bronzed of face, with eyes Intent,
They marched In columns past;
Shoulder to shoulder, file on file—
•‘Bon Dleu, mercl! At last!”
"Et puls encore! Voyez! More and still
more there are!”
Thus gayly wept the women of France
As the dusk-brown lines stretched far.
Bronzed of face, with eyes Intent,
They marched in columns past;
Shoulder to shoulder, file on file—
“Bon Dleu, merci! At last!”
A thousand women kneeling in a vast
church dim,
With hands In prayer uplifted,
Pouring their thanks to Him!
Bronzed of face, with eyes intent.
They marched in columns past;
Shoulder ' to shoulder, file on file—
"Bon Dieu, merci! At last!”

COUNTY UNIT WOMEN
MAKE FINE REPORTS
In her weekly bulletin this week,
to women of the county units, Coun
cil of National Defense, Mrs. Samuel
Inman expresses great appreciation
of ( the reports that are coming to
her, describing tbe defense work of
Georgia women in all sections of the
state.
Among these Is a report from Mrs.
Ira E. Farmer, chairman of the Me
Duffle unit, Council of National De
fense, who writes:
"We organized the woman's com
mittee of the council here with prac
tlcally every woman’s organization in
town represented, including the so
cial clubs, the mebers of which feel
they would prefer to give their time
to assisting in all matters so vital to
us now Instead of wasting it upon
social affairs.. I am enclosing a list
of officers. Owing to the ' untTStfsf Tiny woman* wishing to do relief wtTk
weather and fuel shortage, we have
not met since, though some work has
been undertaken by each organization
and a full report will be given you as
quickly as possible. At any rate, we
rre thoroughly organized and in po
sition to do quickly anything we are
called upon to do.
“Monday, I. start out on a six days:

RECEPTION AT RECTORY
LAST EVENING
One of the most brilliant social
events of the season was the reception
given at the Rectory last evening as
a charming compliment to Bishop and
Mrs. Mikell.
The entire lower floor of the rec
tory was thrown open for the occa
sion and the rooms beautifully deco
rated with bamboo and cut flowers.
In the receiving line were Bishop
and Mrs. Mikell, Dr. and Mrs. Rich
ards, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Rowe, and
Mrs. C. M. Strahan.
Mrs. Mikell wore a beautiful gown
of white and black tulle .trimmed with
jet. Mrs. Richards wore black net over

you would like me to bring before
the people, I hope you will write me
to reach me before Monday. I have
been through the county speaking on
Liberty -Bonds, food conservation and
the Importance of keeping the chil
dren of the present school age In
the schools, so that the next genera
tion will hot bo unfitted for 'taking
up the burden when we lay it down.
Also the work referred to above. The
war savings stamps have not been
pushed yet, as I would like, owing to
conditions, but I will take that up
also next week.”
Home and War Relief.
Apology Is due to Miss Florence M.
Marshall, director of tbe woman’s
bureau of the American Red Cross,
quoted from Circular No. 77, woman’s
committee, Council of National De
fense.
’MIbs Wetmore, chairman home and
foreign relief department of above
committee, issued Circular No. 77,
over her signature, and in it quoted
at length from Miss Marshall..
A part of Mias Marshall’s statement
was reproduced from this circular
and credited to Miss Wetmore, who
issued the circular.
Mention should, of course, have
been made of the fact that Miss Wet-
more was herself quoting from Miss
Marshall.
In an introductory statement
the circular (77), in addressing state
chairmen of the home and foreign re
lief department Miss Wetmore wrote;
Dear Madam Chairman:
The increasing activities of tbe
Red Cross are making it dally more
Important for the chairman of the
home and foreign relief committees
in the several states to keep In very
close touch with the division chair
man of the Red Cross tor- them to
act solely as a clearing-house for in
formation In relief work, and In no
way to be an operative committee.

ual wishing to work live In a remote
district, It is far easier and wiser for
her to receive .. instructions in the
above organization than to try and
form independent groups that would
not have standardized patterns for
surgical dressings.
The need Is so great In Europe to
day that every effort must be made
to Increase the output going abroad.
You are therefore earnestly request
ed to stimulate as much as you can
the realization ot the growing impor
tance of every woman doing her
share of war work. The enclosed
circular is a suggestion.
One thought to remember Is tljat
the seriousness of the conditions
abroad makes it imperative for us
who aro so far away from the firing
line, to make the surgical dressings
and garments requested by the Red
Cross and other organizations. These
people being on the spot, know bet
ter than we what is needed. It is
criminal to use space today In trans
porting articles of no value when the
thingB so desperately wanted can
barely be faken over In the cargo
space allotted to the Red Cross and
other organizations.
Sincerely yours,

PRAISING THE RIGHT GIRL.
Along with the war question, the
matter of food production and conser
vation and divers other subjects of
kindred nature, it la indeed refreshing
now and then to run across something
different; and the Rochelle New Era
provides just such a diversion in the
following:
“Young man. If you ever meet a
girl with rosy cheeks who says, “l
can’t start for thirty minutes yet, be*
cause I want to help mother do the
dishes,” you want to sit right down
.on the steps and wait for that jewel.

opinion of the girl who is always on
streets which he does not always
make public. Sixteen to one, such a
girl will develop Into a tacky slat
tern and gossip after marriage and

FROM FRANCE.
The following Is an extract from a
letter from Paris, received about the
15th of January:
We will have a chat about domestic
Parts, war and politics being taboo.
Do you want to know how cold it la?
Get Miss Brumby (who reads French
remarkably well) to give you Dante’s
visit to the cold circle in the Inferno.
Dante spent much time In Paris, and

countenences for you which I am
afraid to send. If the R. F. did not
take them the U. S. would.
The lampe voucher appeals to me; a
wick run through a cork, a little tin
radiator, and lamp chimney, the whole
costing fifteen cents. You fill a bot

stick in your little lamp and there
you are ready to root In a cupboard or
trunk,—simply delightful!

Miss Trotter, who is just from Char

than veal. I haven't had a chance to
try It. as I have plenty to eat, and
It is not so dear as In America. We
