- UNCLE SAM has found it necessary fo explain the British girl in uniform to American men in uniform. el In the booklet issued by the war department as a guide for American soldiers in England = is this introduction to the British women soldiers: “British. women officers often give orders . to men. The men obey smartly and know it is no shame. For British wom- { en have proved themselves in this war. They have muth Millett stuck to their. posts near. burning ammunition dumps, delivered messages afoot after their motorcycles have been blasted from under them. They have pulled aviators from burning planes, “They have died at the gun posts and as they fell another gl has stepped directly into the . position and ‘carried on. There is not a single record of any British woman in uniformed service quitting her post or failing in her duty under fire. When you see a girt in uniform with a bit of ribbon on her tunic, remember she didn’t get it for knitting more socks than anyone else in Ipswich.” 3 J » ”»

Thomas Ament Hann Magraw Eristavi, I saw Diane this week in the new metropolitan headquarters of Bundles for America at 648 Madison ave. She planned the entire decor of the workroom which also will be used as a gift shop and tea room. A bright red baseboard accents the sky blue walls and white ceiling. “Most of the furniture was donated,” she said. “We got the two showcases in the Bowery.” Diane rummaged through a number of lower East Side second-hand shops before finding cases cheap enough for her Bundles budget. The two she bought cost $18 apiece. “It’s almost impossible to buy gilt paint,” she went on. “The painter and I had to mix our own.” ; s 8 & THE GIFT SHOP is the second that Diane has organized for Bundles for America. While summering in Stockbridge, Mass.,. with her mother, Mrs. George Rockwood, she ran one on Main st. By the end of the summer and the net profits showed $844. : “We didn’t know where :all’ the money came from,” said Diane. “The treasurer had to list some of it under ‘Anonymous Gifts’.” In organizing the gift shop Diane followed the Bundles rules to the letter. Advised to “contact local bank,” she immediately made an appointment with one of the bank's
'|officers. They discussed various
problems in connection with opening an account. After about 45 minutes the official had ironed out every difficulty. “Well, where's your money? he asked as he started to fill out the form. “What money?” asked Diane. “We Just want to open an account. We haven't any money to put in it yet.” 2. 8 s DIANE AND HER mother divide their time between Stockbridge, their New York apartment at 850 ‘Park ave, and “Cloister Court,” Mrs. Rockwood’s Florida home at ‘Cocoanut Grove. * Diane’s interests other than Bundies for America runs to tennis, music (she studies singing) and
