describing the war, are those writer
by Cora Harris. In her "Bruvest OF
the Brave" she has summed up very
skilfully the position and tempera.
ment of each of the various n~ationali
ties OF women involved in the war. az
follows:

literal victims. They have been scat
tered to the four winds of the earth
They have been tramplCd in the dust
by the feet of an invading army. /
have seen who were forced &c
witness the execution of their hus
