American Red Cross says:
AT one of our Red Cross canteens
last week an old poilu, with tragic
face, came up to the directrice of the
canteen and pulled out three photo
graphs of very fine boys which he
said we're his sons who had enlisted
in the same regiment, and who mad
all been killed.
"A month before he had received
word from the French authorities that
his wife, who had been caught in the
invaded district, had been shot by
the Germans. He was started back
on his furlough with no family to
whom he could 60.
"rhe directrice suggested that he
bad his parents 10 visit. but he an
swered that both his parents were
killed by the Germans in 1870.
He said to the directrice. I have
had rest and comfort here in your
canteen. You have all been very kind
to me. l have found plenty Of good
food to eat, something TO read and q
place to sleep. I think that will
stay here for few days before re-
turning to the front il you do not
mind
And 1t is there that he will spend
his leave. These are the men the
Red Cross canteens reach, nearly
