but that does mol begin to tell their story.
In addition to Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year greeting the Red Cross
Seals typify as nothing else of their kind
does the real Christmas spirit of love and
sympathy and service for a brotherhood
of suffering humanity. They carry a
message of helpful interest to forlorn
hearts which cannot be directly reached.
however much we may be willing. They
give expression to the best impulse that
comes from the heart of man-that of
helpfulness to the unfortunate victims of
poverty, misery and distress. They rep
resent real and potent effort to translate
this spirit of helpfulness into efficient ser
vice toward alternating the sorrow and
suffering which follow in the train of the
Great White Plague. They give joy
alike to the heart of the sender and to the
recipient and help to save the life and
happiness of some less fortunate brother
beyond the personal reach of either who
has already or may become the victim OF
tuberculosis. And tuberculosis Is so
largely community sin.
Placed on correspondence, Christmas
gifts. pay envelopes, they carry al once a
gladstone message, cherished hope and
a sympathy that cannot he misunderstood.

stores in Rising Sun and Colora.

barring the enemy.
The colonel Of our regiment today
paid grand tribute to the boys
who came from across the sea" as
he styled the six of us who came
over to fight the Germans and who
happened to land in the Gordons.
There are a great many Americans
here in this war, We need more.
I'm Scotch myself, Of course. The
captain asked me yesterday if
was Scotch for the time being or
always" Pretty good l thought.
Best bunch Of men, both officers and
enlisted men that l ever saw
The Gordons are great. l am proud
to be called a Gordon, and they are
the best fighters in the British ar
my and of course that means the
whole of Europe as we'll. l don't
care to take in any more territory
at the present writing.
The Germans do not take any
Scottish prisoners. 1t is death to
the Jocks" as they call US. SO you
see we are up against it and We
give no quarter.
Turn about is fair play.
We are SO thoroughly hated and
feared, we Scottish troops, that the
enemy long past refused to take any
Highlanders as prisoners. Even when
down and helpless from gas poison
Ing the Huns bayonet the Jocks"
rather than show humanity.
At first when they saw the High
landers in their kits they thought
they were the British women who
had come over to fight They were
of the opinion that the British gov
eminent was short Of men.
When they learned how these
same women" could fight they
called them the women from hell"
Eventually they learned that the
Highlanders were not women so they
called them the lads from hell"
Shortened to Jock" which is
Scotch for Jack"
AS l write this letter, lying on the
ground, history is being made over
here, geography is being changed. A
lively artillery duel is in progress
again about ) miles away. Have
been expecting few shells our way
all day but evidently the enemy
doesn't know where we are. Posi-
bly, tomorrow they will know. The
reign of Kaiser Bill is waning. Could
you see some of his troops you
would know that it is all over but
the shouting. He is using old men
and boys, and that is a bad sign for
him.

Just Before the Battle, Mother"
Notice that word is battle" not

Well, to resume. | have quite a
stack of souvenirs which I would
like to keep and take back to Gods
country. Among them is the old
German helmet with the brass
spike in the top of it. l have some
dun dunn bullets which I found in
the trenches and several pieces Of
shrapnel. The dun dums" are one
more disgrace to German tactics Of
warfare We will give no quarter
to them for we get none, but we do
not use dunn dunn" bullets, nor saw
bayonets." We do not violate the
gentler sex, neither do We cut off
the hands of poor little children.
Evidence of all this is plentiful in
Belgium as perpetrated by KAISER
Bill" We would not use gas until
Lord Kitchener threatened to resign,
unless we were permitted to use it
as protection for the "Tomnies.
Then on June IS the British and
French both started using gasshells.
