placed under competent teachers,

AMERICAN COLLEGE GIRLS
WORKING IN FRANCE
ASSOCIATED Press)

The French 'FRONT.' Correspond.
ence)-A. small band of Smith Col
lege girls is mothering the distressed
population of those districts of
France devastated by the Germans
before they were forced to retreat
last spring by the victorious French
and British troops who had hammer
ed them on the Somme. The CORES
pondent of the Associated Press
passed a day with the young women
in the war zone where they have ar
rived to install themselves in the
midst of the stricken people. They
have made their. headquarters in the
grounds of the Chateau of Robere
Icourt. There they live in shacks and
portable houses in sight of the black
|ened ruins of the castle, burned by
the Germans. From this center they
go to twelve villages which have
beek taken over for relief by the
American college girls. Before the
war they had altogether a population
of approximately 1900. Now this
has been reduced to about 1900.
The American "angels of mercy"
as the Smith College girls are known
brought with them from America or
purchased in Paris large stores of
articles of first necessity for the peo-
pie. Many of the peasants had mon
ey which they had been able to con-
ceal from the Germans, and these
people were quite willing to pay for
articles provided by the American
girls. Others among the peasants
were destitute of both goods and
money and for these the American
girls made charitable provision.
The girls brought motor trucks,
| and several of them are motor driv-
! iers. Once or twice week each OF
the villages in their district receives
a visit from a party of the girls In
their trucks which are loaded with
necessities, and these are sold to the
peasants at cost price or less, and
thus many of the needs of the peo-
pie are met. Food, linen, clothing
furniture, kitchen utensils and live
schickens and rabbits are most desir.

Other branches of assistance tc
the people take the form of travel
ing dispensary, the giving of medica
ladvice by the two women doctors
from Smith College who are mem

.bers of the squad, the foundation of
nurseries for the care of the smaller
infants while their mothers are work
ing, and the establishment of play
rooms for the other children.
The care of the children is one of
the most important parts of the girls
work. In the first place, the little
ones have to be retaught to play, for
during the German occupation they
were not allowed to do so and'in most
cases had forgotten how to amuse
themselves in simple games. It is
wonderful how soon they learn under
the American girls encouragement
and leadership. Then the neglected
little ones are taken in hand and
taught the value of cleanliness and
neatness. For the women much help
is provided in the way of sewing
classes and instruction IN modern
hygiene.

THE OIL ENGINE
With the. Exception of the Noise
Which Can be Silenced, It is an
Efficient Piece of Machinery

Efficient Piece of Machinery
All the people living in the vicinity
of the electric plant are worried by
the noise of the oil engine. They are
not to blame for being worried, for
the noise is something fierce.
There are however some other
things to be taken into consideration.
Apart from the noise it makes, the
oil engine is a good machine. 1t car
ries the entire load for the city work,
both light and water. 1t is the most
economical machine the town can
have. It saves the city hundreds of
dollars in fuel every month.
This would not, atone for the noist
it makes, but as soon as the council
can obtain fuel to run the old plant
a few days, so the oil engine can be
she down, the noise will be eliminat-
ed. It is not the fault of the council
that the fuel has not been so far OBJ
tanned. It. is the fault of the rail-
road, which will no furnish cars to
haul the fuel.
1t is a contemplate piece of bust
ness to try and put the blame for the
engine on Mayor Chace. He had nc
more to do with it than any other
citizen who voted for bonds TO build
the plant. The engine was accepted
under the. administration of John ID
Robertson. People forget, that Mayor
Chace's home is in 200 yards of the
plant and that the noise made by the
engine is as annoying to him and his
family as it is to anyone else

In an impressive memorial service,
Kansas has paid its tribute to the late
Maj. Gen. Frederick Funston. AS the
body of the general was being laid to
rest in San Francisco, Representative
hall at the Kansas capitol was crowd
ed with Kansans gathered to do honor
to his memory.
Both branches of the legislature
suspended business and attended the
ceremonies in a body. The principal
speakers were Charles s. Gleed of To
peka and Charles F. Scott Of lola, both
OF whom were among General Fun
ston's most intimate friends. Governor
Arthur Capper presided. Mrs. George
Parkhurst sang Tennyson's Crossing
the Bar" At the close of the meeting
Battery A of the Kansas national
guard fired the major generals salute
of thirteen guns.
Mr.. Gleed, who was regent Of the
state university when Funston was a
student there, recounted the life work
of the general. It was Mr.. Gleed who
gave him the money with which to go
to Cuba to participate in the insurrec-
rection, and who two years later
helped to carry Funston from a ship
In New York harbor to an ambulance,
after Funston had escaped from an
island where he took part in twenty
two battles.
"And it is we'll" said Mr. Gleed in
closing, that he should rest beside
the Golden Gate, through which he

Funston as the greatest and best
loved military leader the United
