•‘Fvcrylady’s I," as a. woman’s magazine, concerns itself mostly with home ini (‘rest, and wisely reduces the amount of reading matter about the war to tin; lowest possible limit. lint in the August issue, for example, we lind a fine series of Iwief articles by prominent people like the lion. Arthur Itobinson, M.L.C., and Aliss Beatrice Day, the well-known actress, on the subject of how we may best help the returned soldiers. The consensus of opinion is that, while we must avoid foolish trad hods dial would simply spoil our men, we must: strain every iibre of our being to repay these gallant fellows the debt we undoubtedly owe them.
