Hei hurt ankle did not make it necessary for her to stay in bed, she explained, after she had greeted Chrys and me, but she rather liked to take a little rest cure, once in a while: she be lieved that women could get rid of half their nervous afflictions simply by shutting themselves up in their own rooms occasionally. I 'agreed with her, but since I had come from the common people, 1 knew very well that the women who need that kind of a cure most are the very ones who think they cannot have it. I poured the tea, because Miss Mil ler didn't care to sit up to do it. The pretty ceremony interested me for once. It gave me an excuse for let ting Chrys and Katherine do most of the talking. While they chatted, studied Katherine's surroundings, They were as unique as her particular style of beauty, altogether as splendid as her own lovely person. Every girl adores an artistic room of her own, and I was doubly interested in Kath erine's because my little home needed furnishing up a bit this spring. I took notes, mentally, of the successes and v rr '" ",s-- tt?

That was what Uncle Sam said in a 1917 war poster, pointing his finger at each passerby. That is what the V nited States School Garden Army says in 1920 to each boy and irirl, urging them on posters to "Follow the Pied Piper" Uncle Sam. This army is composed of children not only in the United States, but in Porto Rico. Hawaii, the Philippine Is lands. Guam and Alaska. And their arms are trowels, hoes, rakes, spades, plows. Kach little soldier signs an enlist ment pledge which says: "As an enlisted soldier of the United States School Garden Army, I agree to use my best efforts to increase the food production of mv country by raised enough vegetables to make some of her brother-soldiers in Ohio sow faster the failures in Miss Miller's decorative scheme. The motif was odd enough it was the circle! Chrystobei knew all about the mys ticism connected with that symbol, and it seemed to me that she was rather vexed because Katherine had seized upon it! Chrystobei knew that she herself ought to have such a "tempera mental" environment, but, of course, she could never imitate Katherine's suite, even though she could improve upon it. A round mirror in a narrow macK frame topped Katherine's delicately made dressing table, and another of much larger size was suspended by silken ropes above her chest of draw ers. The bed was a wonderful thing. with a round headboard, hand-carved and Krench-caned, and it was covered with a delicately flowered and tinted satin spread having a shirred flounce which quite concealed the sides of the bed and the rounded end. The bed looked like an enlarged .and florifled chaise lounge. I had never seen any thing like it except in foreign museums. ; The table and dresser, the hutch and of the room were cluttered with a the mantle, the shelves and tb walls treasure of rare bottles and boxes and j vases, toilet articles and etchipgs. Katherine s pride was her collection of mirrors. She specialized in round mirrqrs and had spent a fortune in gathering them together from all part of the world.. It . was this collection which suggested the circle as the mo tit of the decorations, she explained. Ch'rys enthused vivaciously about the idea, but I was spiteful, I suppose. Said myself to myself. "Mirrors! How characteristic of a girl!. When phe admires one of them, she admires the reflection of herself!" Judging from the opulence of her boudoir, I decided that there wasn't much restraint in Miss Miller's na ture, and because I couldn't like her, in spite of Bob's recent attempt to make me do so, I hope that I had con siderable restrain in my own make-up. "This collecting mania must get t be an awful form of self-indulgence." I though." "First, a girl fills up her own room, then the house, and when that is crammed, the superfluous 'sec onds' must be sent off to a museum! Little personal pleasure can one have in owning a museum, 1 should think." And I was glad that I didn't have to buy the things that happened to please m just for the thrill of purchasing them, or just because I happened to have the money to pay for, liiem. My lifle house required 'some reno vating, as most" homes do every spring. I decided that restrain houhl be the keynote of my decorating problems. 1 would rbuy very nice things, but I would buy them sparingly. I woul1 certainly avoid the litter and the clut-r-j- which, in spite of its eloquence, was the dominating and the distressing f en t ure,; of Miss Miller's luxurious K-r'te. .

Companies and Insignia The children are enlisted, in com panies of from 10 to 1"0, each company having a captain and lieutenants, whose duty it is to inspect the gardens of the members of their companies and aid the garden teachers. The insignia of the privates is a crossed hoe and rake, and stars or an eagle are added to designate-captains and lieutenants. Ambitious Plans aut a.twoof i.7..7-is-o etaoinshrdluu Plans for lni'O production are ex ceedingly ambitious, say the garden teachers of the bureau of education. But not more ambitious than last year's results warrant. In 1919, 2,500, 000 children in the United States were enlisted. The financial returns amounted to $48,000,000. In Cleveland 13,048 school children raised $92,982 worth of food products on 231 acres, averaging an income of $401.90 per acre in 1919. The value of food raised in New York City by 60,- 654 children amounted to $715,17S.T1. In Greensboro, N. S., the average re turn per acre was $622.49. These figures are characteristic of the entire country. Include Home and School The U. S. School Garden Army was organized by President Wilson, the secretary of the interior, and the com missioner of education. School gardens include both gardens at home and those on large tracts supervised by the various boards of education. The tract gardens are in charge of paid workers and teachers visit the home gardens. Records are kept of these inspections The pupils keep an accurate record of the number of square feet, cost of tools, seeds, and of the produce. From Tin Cans to Corn The U. S. School Garden Army pro duces food where nothing would be raised otherwise. Its soldiers pounce upon dispiriting dump heaps of ashes, and tin cans, or empty lots grown high with thistles in a season the. dump heaps and weeds are transformed to flourishing, well cultivated crops of grain and vegetables.
