During the war the corporation of
Glasgow employed women in its parks,
on its tramways, in its clerical de-
partments and its bacteriological la-
boratory.
Mrs. Burleigh Leach, Chief Control-
ler of Queen Mary's Auxilliary Corps
(Waac's) began doing "her bit" as one
of the first recruits of that eplendid
'mother of patriotic British. women's
organizations the "Weraen's Legion."
That was, in September, 1915, and
from that day Mrs. Leach has never
rested. When. the armistice was sign-
ed, Mrs. Leach had under her 40,000
women and girls of whom nearly 7,000
were in France. She was about to ask
for 30,000 more. Although' one age
limit was. eighteen years, Mrs. Leach
fence:
"I wane the girls begin their mu-
sic, but I dread it. There is al-
ways such a time to get them to
practice. Seems funny, when I've
always loved it and would give a
good deal even now for their chance."
I thought of my friend who is
drawing. "Why don't you take the
chance?" I asked, "Let the girls wash
the dishes and mop the floor and you
take the music lessons. They are
old enough to show some talent, if
they have it, and if they don't care
enough about music to practice for
love of it, why drive them to it? You
spend the money on yourself."
"Do you think I could?" she eeked
Wistfully. "George waits me to.
We were talking about it just last
night:"
"Of course you could," I said. "You
can play better now than either of the
girls."
A half hour later I heard her at
the piano, and for two hours she
played scales and finger exercises.
At noon she called across, "My fin-
gers aren't near as stiff as I thought
they'd be. I am going down this
afternoon to see about my lessons."
Perhaps the most surprising par-
ses', though, is the quiet neighbor
around the corner who always comes
in if anyone is sick and does more in
ten minutes than the average woman
would do in an hour. She has had a
large family, six children. The
youngest is now fourteen, and they all
assume that mother is their personal
property and, incidentally, that she

This fall she made a decision for her-

take the Red Cross nurses' aid course.
The family was aghast The idea
of mother going down town to do

COLORS FOR SAILORS
Navy Blue Has. for Centuries Been
Worn by Sea -Goers.
The blue color so prominent in the
uniforms of almost all marines is of
hoary origin. Vegetins, in his fifth
book' on the military affairs of the
'Romans, traces the origin of this
color to the Veneta an ancient people
dwelling near the coast of Biscay,
and well versed in seamanship. It
was, cusomary among them to paint
their outgoing ships as well as the
masts and sails with a blue color; also
their soldiers and sailors wore blue
uniforms. According to our author,
the Latin word. "Venitas" -which Weas
both the name of..the color and that
of the people, points to its origin.
From the Verteti the custom was adop-
tee by 'the Romans. Thus the son of
Pompelus; after defeating . Caesar's
fleet in a:, naval battle, wore the navy
blue, although entitled to the purple.
The Veneti were subdued by Caesar
after a severe maritime war hi 56 B.

"Things could be adjusted somehow
when that time came."
"What makes you think that your
mother would be willing to have me
come into her house?"
"Willing! Why, she looks forward

That assertion mollified Nora.
