COLLEGE GIRLS
 . LITTLE MOTHERS
They Are the American Angels
 of Mercy and Are Popular

French Front, October 1t.-(Cor- respondence)-A small band of Smith College girls is mothering the dis tressed populations 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 ham mered them on the Somme. The cor respondent 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 Robercourt. There they live in shacks and porta- ble houses in sight of the blackened ruins of the. castle, burned by the Germans. From this center they go to twelve villages which have been taken over for relief by the American college girls. Before the war they had altogether a population of ap- proximately 4,60O. 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 money which they had been able to conceal from the Germans, and these people were quite willing to pay for articles provided by the American girls. Oth- CTS among the peasants were destitute of both goods and money and for these the American girls made char itable provision.
 The girls brought motor-trucks. and several of them are motor-driv~ CTS. Once or twice a 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 people are met. Food, linen, clothing, furni- ture, kitchen utensils and live chick ems and rabbits are most desired. Other branches of assistance to the people take the form of travelling dispensary, the giving of medical ad- vice by the two women doctors from l Smith College who are members of | the squad, the foundation of nurseries for the care of the smaller infants 1 while their mothers are working and ] l the other children.
 The care of the children is one o1
 the most important parts of the girls
 work. In the first place, the little
 ones have to be retaught tc
 play, for during the German
 occupation they were not allowed
 to do so and in most cases ha6
 forgotten how to amuse themselve.
 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 instructor
 in modern hygiene.
 It Is hoped here that the work O.
 the Smith College girls, forming thu
 first unit, in cheering up and helpinl
 these stricken peasants may be ar
 incentive to others to undertake sim
 liar labors in the hundreds of village, which have suffered from the Ger
