SIX MONTHS IN
HELL CARPENTER
SAYS OF VERDUN

PARIS, Aug. 2s.-"All the fighting
had experienced and seen before
was nothing to the fighting at Yer
dun" said Georges Carpenter, noted
French boxer and army aviator.
'verdun might very well have been
the Inferno created by Dante.
For six long months, together
with my countrymen. I have lived in
hell. 1t was as II a whole world was
vomiting and splitting its spite
against community OF people locked
up. We French were a wall; the Ger,
mans were a huge battering ram. All
the devices of the devil were brought
into play against US.
THE French rocked and swayed,
but never broke, they knew no
surrender, they immortaliZed Verdun;
the Germans were not only held,
but were killed in thousands and
pushed back and beaten. Verdun!
Immortal Verdun! Would that you
could know how to appreciate what
the name means and signifies to all
Frenchmen, and especially those of
my countrymen who lived through
those awful days"
