Paris.-AIl life long Private Jean

the great war The wound that has
marked him Is so unusual that he is
known at American Military Hospital

as the Red Cross Man." and doctors,
nurses and patients have watched his
case with unusual interest.
Fournan is member of one of the
American regiments recently engaged
in the fighting near scissors and
Fismes. He has been in France since
last October and went through "sev-
eral kinds of hell' on several fronts
without n scratch And then, one
morning a shoot time ago, just as his
company Went over the top headed
for a BOche machine gun nest,
''whizz bang" knocked him out. He
had a momentary singing sensation
and then awoke to find himself on an
American sanitary train, from which
he was taken by ambulance to the hos
pital.
When he was carried TO the operat-
ing room the surgeon looked him over
and then called the other doctors 20

by two pieces of shrapnel. one of
which had gone down his back so close
10 his spine that only a miracle saved
him from paralysis. The other had
crossed at right angles. leaving the
mark of perfect cross on his back.
Fournan has those pieces of shrapnel
in his Red Cross treasure bag. He
says they're lucky pieces" because
they "only left scar"

Dear Mr.. Cassidy:
Yours Of July 4th reach me yester-
day, and very glad indeed to hear
from you At the present writing
the allies are kicking the stuffing
out of the Huns on the Marine and
have them On the run ever since July
18th, we ale now having the best
successes we have had since | ar
rived here, and every one sin the
best of spirits.
The Italian success on the eastern
front was just fine, they are great
little fighters and they are doing
great work on this front as you no
doubt know the Americans have been
playing their part well in the present
battle and we hear from all sides
what great fighters they are.
There has been a wonderful change
in the disposition of the allied sol
diers ever since our boys have got
ten into the fray; they have to hand
it to them; we have the best open
fighters in the world today, and that
is where they are getting their work
in this battle, the Hun" has not
time to dig in, when they get them
in the open they make the fur fly.
am enclosing you clipping out
of our little paper of some open fight
ing they did few days ago.
read a short clipping in our paper
where the Kaiser was kicking on the
barbarous style of the Americans
fighting, using the short barrel auto
matte shot gun, he says he wouldn't
be surprised to see them using toma-
hawks and bowie knives before long;
also says the Americans could not
shoot rifles and that is why they are
using the short guns, don't think the
square heads relish these guns very
much, when you begin to hand him
some of his own medicine back at
him he squeals.
We are anxious here to see the
liberty motor get into action. fig
ure that it will surpass any machine
at present in the service. Would
like to see enough of them go over

er and his followers off the face Of
