Between Air Raids.

This is a thrilling and true story OF
two women who kept a ''posto di con-
forto'' at Treviso, Italy, for travelling
sick and wounded soldiers:
Having done some very good ter
rorizing by the six o'clock raids, the
Huns kept them up. 1t was such
pestiferous nuisance, because we were
always in the middle of cooking the
evening meal! With your soldier cook
and servant safe down in the cellar,
it becomes your pleasing duty to run
out between raids to stir the soup or
nut another stick of wood on the fire.
Witt" shrapnel falling all around, it
is not altogether wise to go with un-
covered head. We had given our two
helmets to American ambulance drlV-
ers and were without any, so was
obliged to wear a granite saucepan on
nv head for these stirring parties. 1t
was not our custom to go into refuge.
We claimed to those who expostulated
that during the raids was when we
were the most needed.-Red Cross

YANKs DISLIKE FRENCH CASH
Call Greenbacks "ReaI Money"-com.
plain That Francs Slip Through
Fingers.

Forgetting how to figure in regular
money and learning how to calculate
in this doggon stuff is one of the
first worries Of the American soldiers
in France, says New York Evening
Sun.
Regular money is good old dol
lars and cents, nickels, dimes and quar-
tiers.
This doggor c+uf'' is the name ap-
piled to Frenc .,ncs, usually paper
money, often as low as single francs,
or 20 cents, for most small cities have
issued local small change currency.
The Americans do not like French
paper money. They say it is trash,
and tears, and is hard to count.
On the other hand, the French are
shocked when an American crumples
French paper up and shoves it in his
pocket the ''way they do back home" !"
French money is to be handled in big
pocketbooks and not crumpled.
''Look at some real money once" a
doughboy told merchant, and flashed
a bright new silver certificate. When
he crumpled it up in his fist to show
how ''real money can be used' the
Frenchman almost tainted.
The Americans are paid almost en-
tirely in French money and they are
getting used to francs, though they all
agree "a francs so small it slips
through your fingers like water"
