PARIS, Oct. %, by mail to New
ork.-This is not German atroc-
ity" story. | have the word of sew
eral American doctors who tended
the man who told it first in the am
bulance section of the American hos
pital in Neuilly, just outside the walls
of Paris.
Jean Bonhomme, his left thigh and
LETT arm broken and shot in nine
places, lay upon the battlefield Ok
the Marine north of MeauN. The
fighting had been terrific; bayonet
charge had followed bayonet charge
and the French and German armies
Fad swayed back and forth over the
same ground time and time again.
The Germans cry was "On to Parist
The Frenchman's was General
Joffre's order of tthe day: Hold
your ground or die" The hand to
hand encounters were savage BUTCH
erings and men fell hacked and cut
into unrecognizable forms.
At last the Germans fell back: the
Frenchmen lighting for their Paris,
have proved unconquerable demons;
and Jean Bonhomme, among scores
Of his race lay unconscious III close
proximity to other scores of dead
and dying Germans.
All night he lay like that as mo-
tionless as the dead about him. Then
a cold rain set in. When dawn came
the rain revived him and he managed
to prop himself up against the corpse
Of fallen comrade. He was suffer
ing like the damned and losing blood
all the time from his multiple
wounds He tried to administer d
sort Of first aid to himself but could
rot, one of his arms being broken
and paralyzed by the pain.
Suddenly, some twenty feet away,
he saw a soldier moving in his direc-
ton, crawling very slowly. 1t was a
German officer, Judging by the uni
form, and, having heard wierd stor-
les of battlefelds, Jean Bonhomme
wondered what was going to happen.
When the German reached the side
of the Frenchman, he helped Jean
into a more comfortable position
dressed his wounds as best he could
under the circum stances, with things
| he took from his own officers kit.
Then he fell back unconscious.
The ambulance attendants found
the German dead. Both legs were
broken. the bones in each being pull
verized. A bullet through the lungs
had completed the job.
Jean Bonhomme-which is not the
Frenchman's real name, the doctor
who told me the story didn't recall
: it. nor does it matter here-is now
at the American hospital in Neuilly

tack at Ypres has been checked By
the Allies and the latter are now ad
vancing toward Ainse. 1t is admit
ted that the losses of both sides at
Ypres was heavy. In the fighting
there the British repelled the Gei-
mans with 'oayonets. 1t is expected
now that the Germans plan an attack
on Arras. Three violent German as
saults, already made there, have
been repulsed.

Parliament Meets Wednesday

LONDON, Nov. 9.-The British
parliament reconvenes Wednesday.
The principal matter of interest at
this time is the attitude OF the oppo-
sition members to the admiralty,
which will bring up a discussion IN
regard to revision of censorship and
demand the publication of more
news. 1t is believed the comparative
slight response to the appeal for
arms is the result of lack of news,
more than anything else.

TILL sorts of interesting things are
~ being planned for the wind
up of the season, and only a few
days now remain before the advent
of Lent and the cessation of all gaye-
ties. An important event of to-mor-
row evening will be the Norman
Hackett performance of Forty ave
Minutes From Broadway" when So
ciety folk will take part in the ball
room scene in act two. This is Tor
the benefit of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, and Mrs. Peel
has spent much time arranging for
this occasion.
Another event of Monday evening
will be the dinner at which the Rota-
rians Of the fairer sex will entertain
their husbands and unmarried Ro-
vary friends at dinner at Hotel Ans
reg. Fully 200 guests will be seated
for dinner, and there will be dancing
in the ballroom afterward.
Monday afternoon there will prob
ably be numbers and numbers of box
parties at the different theaters, and
Thursday there is already planned
bridge party, and the tea dance at the
Piedmont Driving Club. BY the way,
did you know that the management of
the club had changed the date from
Wednesday to Tuesday just because
of Ash Wednesday falling on the day
they usually have their dances? Many
good Episcopalians and Catholics
couldn't come on Wednesday, ami
they will all be anxious to have one
more good time the last day allotted
them before the drab curtain Of Lent
descends upon the social world.
Now, 1 mustn't forget to tell you
what is going to happen Tuesday

Atlanta who were willing to try this,
and they appeared also as tango
artists. Perhaps what struck the pub

talent to see their Improvement from
season to season. Mrs. Thomas Il.

she has been very enthusiastic over
the prospects. She says the rehearsals

teas or the dinner-dances. They have

home or another, and they have had

THE week has been rather gay
one, but there could have been
more affairs when you consider
that Lent Is so near upon us and
things will have to be quiet for fully
six weeks. The only large affair that
society as a whole was interested in
was the cabaret at the Georgian Ter
race Tuesday evening. That was the
most magnificent gathering I have
ever seen for charitys sake. Every
body was there, and in their very
"bestest" clothes. Perhaps they want
ed TO contribute their mite to the
fund for the Home for Incurables, tor
everyone is interested in this institu-
tion-but | guess that some came out
of curiosity and some because they
thought they would have a good time
dancing on those marble floors. You
know these are considered the best
suited to the modern dances. and
really believe it easier to glide on
marble than waxed hardwood, where
you lose your balance and slip up at
unexpected moments.

Lost His Nerve,

Many years ago blacksmith near
York. England, successfully performed
the delicate operation of removing a
cataract from an eye on several of his
fellow villagers. says the London
Chronicle. The fact became known
to doctor in the neighborhood, who
so admired the blacksmith's skill that
he provided the means for his educa-
ton as an oculist To the blacksmith
the removal of the cataract was no
more than mechanical feat, but when
he became acquainted with the struc
ture Of the human eye and it's amazing
delicacy he was so overpowered by the
rashness Of what be had done In igno
rance that he lost his nerve. and with
the fear of knowledge he insisted on
returning TO his anvil.

Knocking and Boosting.

When a union elects a member
to an official position, it does so
not To max a target for censure
and abuse, but that he may be a
center around which members shall
gather TO make efftc i've the woI K
of the organization, say S an ex-
change. This is a lesson that has
rot taken hard enough held Tn the
minds of union members. There
is a peculiar perversity possessing
many union people that makes
them knock the men they have
an idea that because they have
elected a brother to cffice they have
the right to dog him to their

very much the same way that In

A STRIKE AVERTED.
A Labor Settlement That Is Triumph
of Common Sense.


of Common Sense.
The settlement of the dispute be
tween the Philadelphia garment max
ers and their employers is a triumph
Of common sense. says the Philadel-
phia Press The demands Of the work
ers were reasonable They asked for
living wage, for fifty-four hour
week and for decent sanitary condi-
tons in the factories. The state law
should provide for good sanitary condi-
tions, and the factory inspectors should
see that the law is enforced. When
so much is known regarding commu.
nicable diseases and the perils of in
sanitary conditions there is no excuse
for reputable employer to ask his
help to work where health is endan-
gered.
The wage question is more difficult
of adjustment, but when the employers
are awake to their social responsibility
they gladly pay the price necessary to
maintain their help in decency, and the
purchasing public will not object to
bearing its share of the burden
Strikes are SO wasteful that prayer OF
thankfulness should be offered when
ever an Industrial dispute is amicabIy
settled
