EDITH TALLAHT, FORMER RICHMOND ? VOMATI "AI1GEL" TO BOYS OF A. E. F.

BY EMMA L. FETTA ! A real live angel, doing everything 'from ae wing on buttons and service i chevrons to helping a fellow feel 'eas'ler about a lore affair back home or ta young. wife and new baby whom he has not seen, la the description given of Miss Edith Tallant, former Richmond women, and now head of the social and library department of Geni

com! Embarkation Camp No. 2, a short distance from Bordeaux, France, by the local boys who have seen her work. -1 - Miss Tallant is the only Richmond woman doing this sort of war abroad, although Miss Amy Horton was until . recently engaged in theatrical and canteen war work. Miss Emily Fletcher Is connected with moving picture censor, work under the Y. M. C. A. and Miss W'ilraa Wallace is a Red Cross nurse in France. - - Miss Tallant Is a graduate of Vassar college, formerly an English teacher in the Richmond high school, and the daughter of Mrs. W. N. Tallant. now

a resident of Columbus, O. She is widely known in Richmond, and her father.

the late W. N. Tallant, was connected with the administrative department of the Innsylvania railroad. Their home was at 30 South Eleventh street. Was Popular Here.

She was known as one of the most

popular teachers ever connected with the local hglh school. ' Her Interest and influence with the young men of 4 the school was said to be nothing W short of remarkable. Carrying her keen personality and administrative ability to France. Miss Tallant has ' , made a remarkable success of her work as a camp mother, all there with heart and hands." Roy Reynolds, of the Richmond postofflce, and who only recently returned from fourteen months service abroad, visited the Genicourt camp and talked to Miss Tallant. He described her as "the angel of the camp, who cheered and encouraged thousands of men. who gave them material help by sewing on buttons, divisional insignias, chevrons, and so forth; who got them the right sort of stories to read, and who helped them with

every conceivable sort of troubles. I and advised them right every, time." "The work Miss Tallant is doing is wonderful and she is doing it wonderfully," said Reynolds. "I had an opportunity to watch the work and I know that she saved many a lad in one way or another. A lot of fellows were brought down there and retained for some time before sailing for home. There they were deloused; there they changed clothes, but they didn't see. much to the cheer in camp. - Most of "them were dreadfully homesick, they simply couldn't wait, to get home; they were tired and sick of war ' and France.1 In other words they came out of their 'clean up' at Genicourt, sanitary and refreshed, but In the depths of gloom. Worked Wonders. "The social life the Y. M. C. A. offered was all there was in the way of decent entertainment, and Miss Tallant as head of the social department and the library, worked wonders with the men. They all admired Y her, in fact they were all 'crazy about her, in the way one is about his mother. In a letter written to a friend in

Richmond, Miss Tallant, herself, described something of the conditions confronting her. , "The boys tell me things which have been dragging at their hearts and making them miserable for many months, perhaps." said she. "Maybe

man has had faith in the girl there is no greater blow, and a boy like that needs comfort more than anything

else In the world. Getting 'cleaned up,' deloused, fed and wanned, helps a great deal, but there isn't much to that if he Is in trouble and doesn't have a friend to point the way to take his mind off the thing," she explained. Welcome Rings Out In the big. but none too. large "Y" room where hundreds of boys are often stranded for entertainment. Miss Tallant has a table and some chairs near the door. Her welcome rings out to every boy who enters the building. She talks to them all, and changes four walls and some long tables into a very desirable substitute for home. Robert Tallant is also in France, and he and his sister have met several times, letters from them say. Such meetings are all too few and the more rare, therefore, they write. When Miss Tallant sailed for France to enter war work she went with five

other American girls who were going over to do the same work. All six

women contracted the influenza and four of them died as a result. Miss Tallant being one of , the two ' survivors. :

WU1 Handicap Irish

(By Associated Press) - WASHINGTON, June 27. Assertions that the league of nations would handicap the effort for Irish freedom vera denied In the senate today - by Senator Phelan, Democrat California. "Some persons interested in ' the Irish cause," he said, "have objected to Art 10 because they fear it would guarantee the territorial integrity Of the British empire.. This It does -only with -respect to 'external aggression,' Now, Irish independence can be won either by the voluntary act ;of England, a successful revolution or the intervention by a superior force from the outside. Of. these three 'avenues to independence the league only stands in the way of ' the last If Irish independence was won by another nation for her, a service, which some radicals expect from Germany, she would have no reason' to expect Independence as a free gift."

GOOD L UMBER

It always pays to take your plans and' specifications up with a reputable lumber dealer before you make important decisions. It saves you money'. - It often saves life-long regret.

INVENTIVE genius as yet has devised nothing better for the' blacksmith . than the common anvil. Likewise no development in the building ma- . aterial industry has brought to light a material better than GOOD LUMBER. . ' '

UT in Dedham, Massachuetts, there stands todav a house which was

erected in 1636. It is now 281 years old. IT IS BUILT OF LUMBER and it is a comfortable home today. Some people decry wood

as a building material, saying that such is not as durable and as dependable as other kinds. But this old-dwelling at Dedham seems' to refute all criticism, standing against the storm of the elements intact for nearly 300 years.

.HERE are many secrets about correct building. Important among

them is the art of choosing the right kind of wood for each especial purpose to which it is to be applied. Inexperience often costs the

builder money. Maple, for: instance is more expensive than pine, yet maple, while best for the floor, is wholly unserviceable when exposed. : ;

LL of which establishes two important points in building. The first is that lumber, being light, "dry, adaptable to every purpose, and well within the reach of -every purse IS THE CORRECT MATERIAL.

The second is that it always pays to consult a reputable lumber dealer with regard to your building plans '.before makirlg important decisions. Regrets are without avail after the house is finished. The time to take precautions is before the first nail is driven.' ' . ' IV e handle good lumber. Manufactured for us at our own mills; cut from an all but inexhaustible supply of raw material; the product of the most modern machinery it comes direct to us standardized, guaranteed as to quality i free from the possibility of waste as can easily accrue through improper sawing and unburdened by the tax o the middle man. Common business methods dictate that you consult us beforeyou buy. ' ' The Richmond Lumber Co. - - -.. -. -. ...... i " Second -and Chestnut StsM Richmond, Indiana ' J
