Surgical dressings and other supplies for war relief have been forwarded for distribution regularly. One of its most splendid accomplishments has been the sending of packages to French prisoners in Germany, a work which has been and is being carried on with diligence and success. Mayfair is in no way connected with other concerns and organizations of the same name. The Paris bureau of Mayfair is situat 77 Rue de la Boetie and Miss Maxwell. of will succeed Mrs.

The Work of Flambean Weavers. An exhibition by Flambeau Weavers of hand-woven textiles, batik, tied and dyed pieces, will be held at the School of Design and Liberal Arts, 212 West 59th Manhattan, from Oetober 1 to October 22, 10 a.m, 4 p.m.: Mondays from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.; Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon, STORIES HEARD AROUND BROOKLYN Court Street B. R.

T. Men Have Reason to Be Jolly. Life for the motormen and conductors of the Court street line is not as dull and humdrum as it is on some of the other lines of the B. R. T.

system. One of the reasons is that the run is rather short--from Bush st. near the Gowanus to the Park Row end of the Brooklyn bridge. When the cars get back to Bush st, there is usually a little leisure before and the round trip to Manhattan begins, this affords the workers a little time to rest and chaff one another. The crew of car 743 of this line is made up of two congenial spirits, The man at the front end is a stocky little Irishman with a keen sense of humor and a merry twinkle in his eye.

The financial manager of the car appears to be Irish (once removed) and is one of those hearty individuals who just can't help making friends. started on its voyage to a the center of On Friday morning, before 743 the great metropolis, the conductor came to the front of the car, which is one of the closed, windows-hermetically-sealed, can't-be-opened brand, and announced to the motorman: pal, we'll proceed to the proceedings. We'll try on this trip to give our passengers every facility for the thorough enjoyment of their morning transportation ordeal. We shall leave the front and rear doors open, thus insuring a flow of cool, delightful, charming Brooklyn Pore atmosphere will hearten them their daily tasks in the big city. Then we'll give them speed, and that will add greatly to their enjoyment." "Suppose someone complains of the draft while you keep the doors said a passenger.

"By gorry!" said the motorman, with a grin, "there's a lot o' husky fellows ridin' on this car airly in the mornin' that wouldn't be hurt if they got a taste o' the draft." "That will be sufficient for you this bright, beautiful morning." said the affable conductor, as he gave the signal to start. The Court st. car stops at every cor. ner on the way to Borough Hail and takes on from two to a dozen cheeked girls, not one of them over 19. Maybe that is why the conductors on this line are so cheerful and the motormen are so gallant.

Legless Soldier Lad Rejoices at Misfortune. He was a returned solder, and as he sat in the corner of a Putnam ave. car the other day, holding a pair of crutches, his bright smile attracted the attention of every passenger. Dropping into conversation with the man next him, who insisted on paying his fare, he naturally fell into a little narrative of his adventures "over there." "I suppose you're wondering why I'm using the crutches," he said; "well, it's because I've got no legs. seem to have 'em all right, but them's artificial, and the very best make that they out in France.

Why, they told turn, that when I get used to them I'll never know the difference. Lost both regular supports in a fierce battie, but they patched me up in no time--great surgeons over there--and then they handed me these. I'm gettin' more used to- 'em all the time, and soon I'll be able to do without the crutches and walk with one stick. "I'll tell you one thing." he added. in a confidential tone: "I expect 10 have great comfort with them wooden legs next winter.

All my life I suffered something awful from cold feet: not the slacker kind, but just regular plain ice-cold trilbies. From November to May my middle name was Misery on account of chilblains and such. but now, just think of it; oh boy! oh joy! I can stick these things in a corner and be happy, no matter how the wind blows." "Wireless Telegraphy" Used for Lovemaking. In a "movie" theater not a hundred miles from Fulton st. and Bedford ave.

there is an operator (the chap that looks after the machinery that projects the pictures on the screen) who is deep in love with a fair lassie of the neighborhood, and who by reason of his occupation, is unable to hold hands as other do folks. do, any night of the week, especially on Sunday nights, room when he is caged up in his little in the gallery tighter than ever. He has hit upon a scheme of lovemaking, that while not as satisfactory as the personal propinquity plan, nevertheless keeps the maiden in the case fairly contented. She comes to the show every evening (professional courtesy), takes a seat where she can get an occasional peep at her best beloved and then watches the screen. She is not interested in the pictures, as she.

is surfeited with them, but she watches eagerly for the various announcements about next week's bill and so on. The lovers have arranged a code, with a great variety of endearing terms in it, each of which is expressed by one or two letters. These he scratches in the corner of the lanternslide, where if noticed at all by anyno attention whatever. But just imabody but the girl they would a attract gine the thrill she gets when, after reading that Robert Leatherlungs will be seen on Thursday in "The heaver's Revenge," she spots (way down the corner and gets the message, "Nobody has anything on you, kid." It's a great little game, and when the two meet after the show for the walk home, life does not seem as dull and gray as it might be, even a "movie" operator and his best girl. MUSIC San Carlo Grand Opera To Run Another Week.

Another week has been added to the original three scheduled for the season of opera at the Shubert Theater. This brief announcement by Fortune Gallo, impresario of the San Carlo Grand Opera Company means that for the second year in succession he has proven the feasibility of producing in New York opera at regular theater prices. If anything, the suecess of the San Carlo company this year has been more pronounced than last. We have seen in good seats fewer of the regular hangers-on that infest every opera house and never pay for their seats. Apparently Mr.

Gallo has had no use this year for their valuable services. Society of American Singers Opens. Hand in hand with the concluding week of Mr. Gallo's engagement comes the beginning week of another operatic project that in some respects is even more significant than Mr. Gallo's, the season of opera comique by the Society of American Singers at the Park Theater.

In the first place these performances will be given, except in two instances, in the vernacular, and so once more we shall, have the abiding proof that opera in English is feasible and more interesting to an English-speaking audience than opera in any other tongue. Again, these performances are in the finest sense of the word labors of love, for the singers who are members of the society give of their time and ability with the only hope of financial reward in the result of the entire season. If it be productive of gain, all share on a co-operative basis. Under such circumstances they really sing better than at other times; at. least such has been the history of the organization's efforts in New York.

Who ever heard Lucy Gates or Mabel Garrison sing SO well as they did 111 the performance of Mozart's "Inpresario" two years ago? Most significant of all the details of the plans of the Society of American Singers is the announcement that they will produce a new American work, the "Bianca" of Henry Hadley, based upon a play of Goldoni. It will be remembered as the opera which won the prize of $1,000 offered by William Wade Hinshaw last year for the best opera to be submitted by an American. We have had but a casual view of the score, but that has been enough to encourage us in the belief that it is by far the best thing Henry Hadley has done for the stage. The work will receive the best possible chance for successful production with such eminent stage artists in the cast as Maggie Teyte and Henri Scott. Boston Symphony to Have Monteux Temporarily.

The authorities at the Metropolitan relented to such an extent to allow the Boston Symphony Orchestra the privilege of utilizing services of Pierre Monteux for first three the weeks of the season. Things have come to a pretty pass when the Boston orchestra should be begging the services of a conductor from the Metropolitan. We understand that Toscanini will come next year as the regular conductor. Does that eliminate all possibility of an American getting a. chance this year to show what an American can do? The Symphony Society of New York.

The following series of concerts have been announced by the Symphony Society of New York, Walter Damrosch, conductor: Eight Thurscay afternoons and eight Hall; sixteen Saturday evenings at Carnegie Sunday afternoons in Aeolian Hall; the usual six Symphony concerts for young people in Carnegie Hall on Saturday afternoons: four Symphony concerts for children on Saturday mornings in Aeolian Hall, a series that was successfully inaugurated last year, and the five Saturday afternoon orchestral concerts at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Several interesting novelties brought from France by Mr. Damrosch will be presented during the season.

Maynard, chairman Liberty Loan Committee in Brooklyn and the members of the committee are completing arrangements for a drive that will exceed anything seen before in the borough.

It is impossible to say, just yet, what the quota for the borough will be, but those in charge are or the firm belief that it will be much larger than any of the previous loans, and possibly twice the amount of the Third Liberty Loan, It is the unanimous opinion of everybody connected with the Liberty Loan Committee that the Fourth Loan In Brooklyn will go over the top. Chairman a Maynard has surrounded himself with committees made up of the most prominent and active men: and women of the borough, and these committees have mapped out a campaign that will reach into every section of the county. To mark the opening of the campaign next Saturday, the committee is arranging for a number of features. While one big demonstration at Borough Hall will serve as the first shot in the drive, arrangements have been concluded for patriotic ceremonies in the other sections of Brooklyn. LeRoy W.

Ross, chairman of the speakers and meetings committee, has compiled a list of some two hundred names--many of them of prominent speakers--in Brooklyn who will address the patriotic gatherings every afternoon and evening. Lt. Thomas Fairservis, chairman of parades, has been actively engaged arranging for an unlimited number of community parades in the three weeks drive. The Advisory Trades Committee, under the leadership of Charles E. Robertson, gives every indication of playing a most important part in the campaign.

Another organization which will carry on thee major part of the activities is Metropolitan Canvass Committee, under the command of Charles Seifert. The Woman's Committee, under Mrs. Walter Shaw Brewster, will be organized along the same lines as it was in the Third Liberty Loan will be located at practically the same points as in the previous campaign with additional booths in some of the outlying districts such as Brownsville and Flatbush. These booths in most cases will be manned and captained by members of the various patriotic organizations and women's clubs of Brooklyn. A meeting of booth captains was held at Liberty Loan Headquarters, 180 Montague Wednesday, and all present assured Mrs.

work with the Army in Europe. Bristol, England, August 24, 1918. Dear Friend: It is simply great to be a part of this emancipation stunt. Many of us are being detained in England against our wishes, for we all signed up for work in France; but circumstances over here are such that the Y. M.

C. A. is finding a fruitful field for hard work right in the British Isles. Later we all nope to cross the Channel and get a pot-shot at Fritzie. They won't let us men curry guns, but we can put ginger into the boys who do carry them, and we can help to maintain a high standard of morale among the lads who ho are so bravely and sturduy and splendidly bearing the burden and heat of the day.

Won't we all be glad when we get this Hu. cesspool cleaned out once and for all! It will take a long, strong, united pull yet for a white; but from the putting, wheezing sounds at the other end of the rope in this great international tug-of-war, Fritzie's bellows are beginning to leak and complain. Meantime, as my mother used to say, "Brag may be a good dog, but Hold-on is a better." I have six counties in England and six in Wales under my area jurisdiction. This necessitates constant travel on fearfully overcrowded railroads carrying troops and civilians; but every journey I take finds me a companionable soul who has just returned from France, Italy or Saloniki and has much to talk about, or who is just reporting back to the front after an all-too-swiftly-passing furlough of fourteen days, and who consequently needs bit of cheer-o. That's when the secretary in the British Isles proves whether he's a peach or a lemon.

The partings at the railroad stations are the saddest and most pathetic things I see here, except possibly the forever broken bodies that are swept back into England on the swirling backwash from the whirlpools of conflict in France and Flanders. But though they may have given a limb or two, an eye or a broken down nervous system, every man of them comes back with his grit and his courage and his honot intact, and his soul more severely rooted in the great undying conviction of the cause for which he bled. Out of the havoc and smoke and confusion of this war is rising, Phoenix-like, a Righteousness triumphant and a Peace that shall be to our sons and daughters worth every drop of blood shed to win it. Our American boys are bearing themselves nobly over here. We are proud of them.

And English people are simply royal in their hospitality. The bitterness of a former generation is gone forever. The prodigal SOIL has come home to partake of good English mutton, and nothing essential is lacking here but our wives and families--God bless 'em! the Chicago Opera Company, and Rudolph Ganz, the Swiss pianist. The entire program is most elaborate and includes an address by Justice Victor J. Dowling of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, who is one of the trustee's of the fund for the men overseas in the 69th.

The expenses of the occasion have been underwritten and Col. McCoy and Father Francis P. Duffy, the heroic priest who so often has been mentioned in the dispatches of late, will receive every penny that is taken In at the box office. Popular Singing Classes at the Acedemy.
