WOUNDED SOLDIERS

Red Cross Unable to Meet the
Urgent Needs of Victims of
Germany's Guns.

Paris, Sept 10-"No human power

enough for the great influx of wounded
such a. came IN after the great drive IN
July, said the Rev DR. Francis l.. Frost,
Of Staten Island, n Y, Protestant
chaplain of the American Red Cross Mill
tary Hospital No l at Neuilly.
Many of the boys had to wait while
the more serious cases were being cared
for fir-. Some of them had not eaten in
q hours or more Some were thirsty
All were in pain Yet there was never a
word of complaint. The more they lost
the more cheerful they seemed. One boy
who had lost the sight of both eyes told
me that he considered himself lucky.
1t might have been worse, he said
They get the finest care possible from
both surgeons and nurses. 1t Is only while
the camions are unloading their freight
so fast that all cannot be attended to at
once
The spirit of the men is a revelation.
Naturally, every one expected great
things Of them But they have far tran
scended all expectations.
1T is not pulpit oratory that the boys
want, went on DR. Frost at Is friend.
The opportunities for a chaplain TO serve

GERMANS, MASTERS
| AT DECE|V|NG ENEMY

With the American Forces in France,
Sept. 10.-"Deceive the enemy by false
tracks ending in woods"
This sentence is from the latest Ger
man document on canoutage to reach
American intelligence officers, having
been found on a capture lieutenant.
More than q Thousand words are devoted
to the science of camouhagc, the article
being dated Mt army headquarters and
signed by Lieutenant Colonel Faupel,
"bv order of the general commanding
the army
Every form of camoufage has been
worked out IN n minute detail by the
Germans, one part of the article saying
"Do not make n heap of earth removed
ut any time but scatter il immediately
There must be no irish cuts visible as
marked contrasts result from il between
the light and dark surfaces. the latter
appearing rs deep shadows on the ground.
DO not change natural shapes. Posi-
tons in fills and cmbankments must
not change the form Of fill or embark

ct is best to distribute the columns

with irregular distribution The best

This appears as n smooth and very natural

there Is no cover, irregular distribution
is required.
Even Mt night make moro use Of tracks
which are generally dark the columns
can then with difficulty I've observed

on roads which appear light can be seen
even ut night. Infantry columns will
be divided into small groups distributed
in depth and advance along the shady
side OF roads When airplanes use
light projectors ~ night. keep in the
shade of trees or buildings
The article ends with this general rule:
when surprised by arplancs either by
day or night use all natural shade pro-
vided by trees, entertainments, houses,
etc. and remain motlonlcSs.

OSTRICH PLUME
is FA|REST THING
Never Had ANY Other Mission
Except Beauty-At Least
Not for Ages.

The plume of the ostrich is like nothing
else in Nature The nearest resemblance
is TO be found in an ephemeral thing The
foam of a breaking wave.
IL must be unthinkable ages since the
wings of this bird subserved any use but
that Of beauty; their function IN the mat
ter Of covering the e1cs during incuba-
ton Is quite secondary and could easily
be dispensed with The perfectly even
barbs are soft As gossamer, and, contrary
TO the rule among birds that fly, quite
disconnected and independent one OF
the other The quilts from their point
of emcrgence from the socket, become
increasingly heXile and 1.-the.
The plumcs convey suggestions ct
luxuriant ductility. of cffortlcss grace.
of sunptuousncss, and, above all, Of
purity From very ancient days they
have been used by man rs Il decoration.
but not until quite recently by woman.
The beauty of the plumcs OF the
ostrich and the mystery surrounding its
habits, have ever attracted the interest
of mankind In ancient Egypt the plume,
on account of the mathematical equality
Of the opposing barbs IN point OF length

feathers of any other bird with which the
Egyptians were acquainted was regarded
as the sacred symbol of Justice 0sri

In his crown The hicroglyph for the
plume was shoe This was probably
onomatopoctic. and originated in the
soft sound made by the plumcs, when

The plume of the ostrich is in several
respects the faircst thing which earth
has produced The creature which it
glorhes is a member of an archaic
class Many of its congcners have dis

FRANCES FORESTS FALL
FOR AMERICAN ARMY
Growing Lumber Carefully Nurtured Cut
by Wholesale for War Purposes.

| Tours, Central France, Sept 25-
| Correspondence of The Associated Press
! Timber cutting for the use Of the
| American army is proceeding on vast
| scale In some OF the great forest regions
| of France, as well as in Switzerland
and Spain. The cutting of tree in
! France has been, in peace times, little
! short of a felony, and no tree could be
! removed until another vigorous sapling
was ready TO take its place. But the
stern requirements OF war have com
! PEELED a change in this conservation
of the forests, and the French are yielding
| the trees they have SO long safeguarded.
Great as the sacrifice is, it has been
recognized as war measure, since the
! bringing over from America of the vast
amount of lumber required for con-
struction purposes would be practically
impossible, or if undertaken would stop
the transport of troops. So the forests
are going, and for the first time solid
stone construction Is giving place to tho
| lighter and much more rapid wood
construction.
Besides the gathering of this huge
stock OF material, requiring thousands
of fOresterS, there is the work of building
the hospitals, docks, barracks, etc The
vastness of these building operations
can be judged from the one item Of
building hospitals
Hospitals are built on the basis of
beds for 10 per cent Of the strength of
troops, SO that with an army Of million
men the hospital provision must be
for 100000 beds; and with prospective
army Of two million men ia sight the
actual estimate for hospitals is 200, 900
beds As there are as many attendants
as wounded occupying beds, this makes
requirements for 100000, or the size
Of a great metropolis, in the one item
OF hospitals
Several 10000 bed hospitals are under
way and two 10000 bed hospitals are
being provided One Of these 10000
