THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM

WITH THE WOMEN OF TODAY

When Miss Frances Marion left for Franca last year little did she think that she would be the first American

woman to cross the Rhine. But that

Is the record which she now has. Miss

Marlon, who has been an artist, a

newspaper woman and a scenario writer, went to France with the purpose of filming the activities of women In the war and also of doing some secret propaganda work for the com

mittee of public information. She was

in the midst of this when the armis

tice was signed. It was the desire of the committee that she get to Germany as quickly as possible. The Red Cross, following its usual custom of sending supplies and comfort ahead of the troops, began loading Its cammions and ambulances soon after November 11. And so, at tho request of the committee of public information, the Red Cross, always ready to co-operate, took Miss Marlon as far as Treves, from where she secured passage into Coblenz five days ahead of the army. Upon this part of her trip and the reason for it Miss Marion prefers to remain silent, but she has many interesting things to tell of her ride through the battle-scarred fields and cities of northern France. "Since my return," she said, when interviewed in her apartments in New York. "I happened to remark that I

had written a screen comedy while I was in the devastated country. A woman said to me, 'You heartless creature! How could you possible write a comedy or even think in terms of humor in the face of sluch misery arid destruction' It was difficult to make her see. that it was the only' thing I could write at such a time. When one's imagination . has been

stirred by scenes too big for words,

one turns by a strange quirK or numan psychology to the opposite ex

Miss Marion brings back witn ner many pitiful tales of the war-torn a also an interestine ac-

Ladd, the noted American sculptor,

who is making masRs tor tnose men whose faces have ben seriously disfigured. Miss Marion worked for

MADRIGAL CONCERT WILL BE PRESENTED ON FRIDAY EVENING

The Madrigal club, the girls musical organization of Earlham college, will give its annual concert in the high school auditorium Friday, March 21. The club is doing unusually good work this year under Elgia Wittwer, vocal Instructor in the college. Miss Helen Hadley is the accompanist for the club and Miss Miriam Hadley, violinist, will be instrumental soloist for the concert. The program will consist of eight short numbers and a cantata in which Cyril Pitts, male soloist for the club, will take part. The Madrigal club is not so well known to Richmond as the Glee club was in its day, partly because the appearances of the organization have been confined more or less to the college auditorium. The coming concert is varied and promises to be interesting. The personnel of the club is: First Soprano Susie Meek, Juanita Ballard. Ellen Sherill, Helen Jenkins, Margaret Nicholson, Mary Yagel and Margaret Bratton. Second Soprano Lova Pearson, Winifred Wildman, Bernice Fricko, Lucille Johnson, Ara Curry, Clara Seilars, Westine Lietzman, Dorcas Hiss, Worval Whitehorn and Gladys Butler.

Clarence Lane Resigns As Fire Company Captain

ARE WAR BRIDES FROM "OVER THERE" HAPPY? WELL, LOOK AT HER BIG SMILE

iff if fy 1 .''"-!

Mrs. Doris Winner,

War brides of our overseas heroes have been arriving in groups on recent boats from France and England. And they are a happy lot, too. Mrs. Doris Winner, shown above, was one member of a group of about twenty brides who arrived recently on the Plattsburg from abroad. Sh came from London and will live in Detroit.

Resignation of Clarence Lane, captain of No. 2 fire company, was accepted by the board of works Monday morning and the appointment of Harry Williams as captain was approved.

Chief Miller was empowered to em-! ploy a successor to Williams as a j member of the No. 2 crew. Ira Slick, i

an experienced truck driver, has ap plied for the place and may be appointed, Chief Mllelr said.

Walt's face, where for so long had been only dogged, plodding determination. (To be continued.)

THE MEETING OF THE WAYS A man docs not know how doggedly he has plodded . until , he catches a shining glimpse of his goal; or gets a "lift" on the road. Walt had been working against hope, against failure, against harassed mind and nerves until he had grown to carry his burden as something that could not be otherwise than a burden ever. Then came through Lucy Benton the offer of Barth to publish his stories; and Lucy's eager partnership in the venture. Hers was not only a partnership in work but a stimulus to his spirit. The difference to Walt shone In his face, showed in his bearing, fructified in his work both in quality and output. This in turn sent a message like the coming of springtime to every tightly compressed nerve in his sys'fem, until he felt himself expanding like a hibernating bear in the first warm sun of April. . Janet saw the change in him. And she gave Lucy full credit for it. Janet had the character to squarely face life, and to give even the devil his due; or hers if that particular devil turned out to be a woman. "Walt," she said one evening, when he had shown her the manuscript he bad written for the forthcoming book and the Illustrations Lucy had drawn to go with it. "Waltle, it seems to me I have treated Lucy shabbily. In view of the friend she is to you. Will you not ask her to have dinner with us some night either here, or at some restaurant, if she prefers?" ( Walt snatched her to him. '"You regular dear little trump!"he cried. "Of course, she'll be delighted to come here!" He was right. Lucy was too comprehending not to appreciate what Janet's invitation meant, and not to accept it. It told her that Janet accepted her as an equal in sincerity and decency. It spoke to her of a recognition of kinship that moved Lucy almost to running away, leaving all clear for Janet. Across the simple invitation, the two women spoke to each other in the language of instinct. Each understood the other and her problem; although it made the problem none the easier. It was a strange little dinner-party that met and ate the meal Janet herself cooked. The two women greeted each other with a sincerity which, while it did not put either at ease, f till eliminated distrust. They chatted

ana laugnea ana tiucy neipea wauer and Janet with the dishes after dinner. To all appearances there was nothing but gayety in the mood of the party. Indeed, Walt felt almost hanpy. The two women he wanted most to be friends seemed so gay together. But to Lucy it was like dangling

luscious fruit just out of reach of one starving for it. The bright, cozy littlt. home; the sight of Walt in a housecoat and Janet in her checkered clean apron, all excited over the outcome of the roasting chicken and the salad dressing done after a new roclpe, the snowy tablecloth a-sparkle with polished dishes and silverware, complete In an unassuming way for a small home; the oneness of Janet and Walt in the role of hosts, the sight of Walt's own room, workshop and den in one, with Janet's touch in every fixture and detail; all these sent pangs of loneliness through Lucy which at times she thought was more than she could bear In self-defense, she played a lightheartedness she did not feel. Janet on her part, after she had sent Walt to see Lucy home, felt her share of longing and envy. A woman of pride, she was not content with holding title to Walt merely by deed of marriage. Not even knowing that Walt loved her comforted her wholly. She wanted to be his mate in mind and kind. She longed to help and inspire him in his work. But of that she felt Lucy had the better share Lucy and Walt were kin in their fellow-citizenship in bohemia. They were working together, where she herself had failed to get Walt to work with her. Yes they were working together, Walt and Lucy, while she, Janet, had to work together with Roy Nicoll. And it was Lucy and not she, Janet, who had brought the light to shine in

JONT FUSS WITH MUSTARD PLASTERS!

Musterole Works Easier, Quicker

and Without the Blister There's no sense in mixing a mess of mustard, flour and water when you can easily relieve pain, soreness or stiffness with a little clean, white Musterole. Musterole is made of pure oil of mustard and other helpful ingredients, combined in the form of the present white ointment. It takes the place of out-of-date mustard plasters, and will not blister. Musterole usually gives prompt relief from sore throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neuralgia, headache, congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains and aches of the back or joints, sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chilblains, frosted feet, colds of the chest (it often prevents pneumonia).
