On the third day, however, while I was tossing a medicine' ball with $ome of my boys, the captain appeared ridden ;,,, lY and announced that I was to move. Of 'course, I could only thank him and obey orders, so I climbed into the: waiting camionette and, escorted by a detail of four men, drove to my 1 billet. Two of the men took down the i electric lights and wires, which they had put in for me, and the other two, as they said, mobilized my equipmett. They looked at nay family photographs, ! glanced into my few books- and tried j on my Boche helmets. When the youngest was helping me force rr'y things into a small wardrobe trunk, be exclaimed, "0 sis, let's see that!" "See what, Harry?" "Why, that fluffy -ruffles gown." I took out my ane bit of finery, a dinner frock that I had been ill advis- 1 ed enough to bring to France, Ills shyoung hdud in. the very back of nay trunkisc• Ieshook i out yap en held It eyes up, andad even the nit who -were working on the electric. wires stopped long enough to look at it. -' "0 boy,but doesn't. that 1 r -dress remind me of home and my best;g;i?;r1. exclaimed Harry: h .,'..

"It's against the rule for me to wear civic,',., but maybe I can dress up just. for fun sometime," I answered as I replaced the gown and went an with my hasty packing. An hour and five minutes after I re- ceived the captain's orders, my belong- ings were settled in my new billet and I was back in the recreation room at camp. But that evening, when my guard of honor took me to my new billet, for I was never permitted to return from my nightly duty alone, one of tine men said a little shyly,. "Bail Jenks told me you had an awfully pretty dress: Would it be too much trouble to show it to Shorty and me?" "No, indeed, Red," I replied, "Coma in and take a look at my gorgeosity." They accepted nay invitation, and I laughingly took the dinner frock from my trunk; but they examined it with serious admiration, and Red brought sudden tears to my eyes when he touched the fabric gently and said his, another used to wear soft, siIlky things, I knew that Red'a mother, had died since he home. ft le They were the first of many who asked to see my "party dress."
