TRAINING DOGS FOR
 WORK IN TRENCHES
Associated Press)

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Jan. To- In mo mans land," the fire-swept zone between the trenches, one may occasionally find, among the mass of human and material debris, dead dogs,
 which, in the opinion of many, are de- serving of the cross for valor equally with their human friends. On both sides, dogs have been largely employ led in locating and succoring the wound ed, and many touching stories of ca nine devotion and sagacity are told and remembered with gratitude by those who must have miserably per
 shed but for the trained Red Cross dog.
 Different countries have adopted diff
 erent modes of training the animals One was to teach a dog to lie down beside a wounded man and bark until assistance came. Another, to train he dog to return half way to his mas ter and attract attention by short, sharp bark, and yet another to teach the animal to pick up some object be- longing to the soldier, carry it back to his master and guide the latter to the spot where the man lies awaiting help.
 The first method has been found to be the quickest in practice, but at the same time the most dangerous, inas- much as the noise is apt to attract the notice of the enemy, and may even at times give him useful information. The second method was based on the idea that it would save time if the dog could be made to produce tangible evidence that he had really found a wounded man; but it had to be aban- doned because the animal, in his unrea- soning eagerness to produce the evi- dence, would sometimes badly maui helpless man and often tear off a tenn porary bandage; thus endangering the fife of the person whom the dog had set out to save.
 The silent method is the only one that has been found really satisfactory, and this is now universally followed; on dark nights and when there is rough ground to be covered, certain obvious drawbacks present themselves.

Red Cross Nurses Guests
 ir Petrograd

T'hirty-five Red Cross nurses recent ly visited the Methodist pastor in Pe- trograd, Russia, and were entertain ed with a five o'clock tea. The com mercial attache of the United States, Henry Dunster Baker, was present and spoke warm words concerning the meaning of the work. The nurses sang several patriotic songs and also 'Boshe, Tsarya", (God save the Tsar) in English.
 The pastor made a brief address, calling the nurses real members of the International Sunshine Society. He told them how other groups of American Red Cross nurses had wis ited Petrograd and attended the Eng liEh services in the American Metho- dist chapel. To every nurse he gave a souvenir of the occasion a Russian New Testament, in which he wrote an inscription. The guests greatly appre- ciatcd the gifts and several of them promised to learn to read Russian.
 Commercial Attache Baker invited the nurses to be his guests the follow ing evening and this invitation was also accepted with enthusiasm. On he next Sunday evening a service in English was held for the nurses the subject of the address was the Good Samaritan.
 A month ago a committee Of Ameri- cans in Petrograd was organized for the purpose of continuing the activity of the American Hospital for Russian soldiers in Kiev.
