her work of mercy.)
The Countess Chick, besmeared
with mud, 4
From swift Piave's rolling flood,
Ran back and forth from shes-
tering wood,
Which just behind the bridge
head stood,
They could no longer keep their
feet;
A Red Cross woman, in whose
sight,
Was neither friend nor foe in
the fight!
Who carried both her own and
the Hun
Beyond the reach of screeching
Eternal mercy was her aim,
To serve all wounded just the
same.
She wore the Red Cross on her
breast
To symbolic the masters best,
That should protect her from all
harm,
From all not brutes a potent
charm!
Butnow amid the battles roar.
A bullet through her body tore,
And as they in their passing
press,
lhe blood ran dripping down
dress! a-
In spite of which she forward
went,
lmputing it to accident.
i +, tnen the Teutons boldly
charge,
lndent the lines and gaps ell
large;
But the Italians close their
ranks,
Some Huns are cut off from
their flanks,
Who fight their best, and bleed
ng fall,
O'ercome by bayonet and ball.
There follows now a moment;
lull,
In which, like some whitening
ed gull,
floating down the
slope,
A merciful and saving hope,
Brought out the carnage and
the smoke,
A hulking Hun, laid under yoke,
BY gaping tear and hideous
wounds,
It last to glory's lust attuned!
She dragged him out the seeth-
ing mass,
And laid him gently on the
grass
And like an angel to his eyes,
She felt him DER with tender
sighs;
With one last impulse, raising
up,
He took a long draught from
her cup;
Il die," he said; ''before I go,
'As out to sea the waters flow,
4 wish your pardon now to beg,
If so may do, human dreg.
"A brute of brutes, and con-
scienceless,
Who under rule of frightfulness,
'Obeyed unmanly orders sent
BY the highest in our govern
nent,
To kill the angels of the cross, !
And bomb on hospital to toss!
To carry out the grudge of |

And vengeful expectations

CANADA CHIEF
SAYS AMERICA
SAVED THE DAY
''Never Was Spirit More
Steadfast, More Reso-

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-sir Robert
L. Borden, premier Of Canada. has
arrived here after a ten weeks stay In
England and France, firm "in the
conviction as he expressed 1t, that
never was the spirit of the allied ma
tions more steadfast or more resolute
than at present"
Americas mighty effort in sending
more than a million men to France
was the deciding factor in bringing
victory out of defeat on the western
front Sir Robert said
ut is beyond question that the VIC
tories of the last four weeks would

their place in the battle line.
Il have seen many thousands of
American troops on board ships and
in camps / visited. 1t is impossible
to overestimate the increased conf
dence with which the arrival of those
mighty armies has inspired the allied
nations.
All Europe Impressed.
"AH Europe is impressed by their
splendid physique the resourcefulness
and adaptability. the remarkable ra-
pidity and thoroughness with which
they have acquired necessary training.
and, finally, the magnificent fighting
qualities they have displayed in every
battle in which they have been tested.
There is most effective and harmo-
nious cooperation between the ar
mics of the United States. Great Brit
ain and France. From Sir David
Beatty. as well as from Admiral Sims
and Admiral Rodman, l know that
this is equally true of the British and
American navies."
The future peace of the world rests
largely upon the unity of purpose and
action by the United states and Great
Britain, the premier said.
DemOcracies United.

united by strong ties of
language and ideal, may in
spire each other with complete conf
dence and sympathy in earnest and
lnselfish purpose. and action to com
mand the worlds peace and secure
safety and equality of opportunity for
the smaller nationalites and for the
backward races of the world The
supreme result would indeed crown
Ill our sacrifices and would give us
much to hope from a wider league of

BOYS IN HOSPITALS
WANT HOME PAPERS
Library Committee Cares
for Over 25,0O0 Men
Each Month.
CBy United Press)

LONDON, Aug 3I.-"More home
newspapers" is the appeal continually
made to the library committee of the
American Red Cross by American
soldiers in hospitals in Great Brit
ain.
The library committee is at present
furnishing reading matter for more
than $4,000 men a month, both in
hospitals and in camps. The COM
mittee has its headquarters in a build
ing at IA Pail Mall East, London,
where it keeps on hand at all time
about $4,000 books and a large sup
ply of magazines and newspapers.
The books are either gifts or are
purchased in London. In its purchas-
es, the committee restricts itself al
most entirely to cheap popular edi-
tions, costing from fifteen to thirty
cents a volume. "Our reason for do
ing this" says a committee report, lis
that we get most for our money in
this way. The boys inevitably get
hard usage, and some of them, used
in the hospitals, must be destroyed al
most Immediately, owing to the danger
of infection. Altogether, the life of
those books is exceedingly short, and
light cloth, are undoubtedly the most
serviceable and economical.
1--WE have made no attempt to inn
port books from America, because we
realize that at the present time tom
mage is needed in more essential dt-
rections. AS to the class of reading
matter selected, we leave il mainly tc
the demands of the men, and they ask
for fiction, and light fic-
ton at that. Where we are supply
ing more or less permanent libraries
for hospital staffs or for American
naval stations, we try to give an all
around tone to the collection of books,
including classics, essays. poetry, bio
graphy and scientific works. but still
for the greater part, fiction.
The magazines and newspapers
must of necessity come from America.
1t is our experience that this class Of
literature gives greater satisfaction 20

tinually for more Of the home news

RoSIPING WITH CHILDREN
GIVES MAE MARSH JOY

Mae Marsh loves children. The
talented Goldwyn star is happiest In
a role that permits her TO romp at
will with the kiddies, as is her wont
when not engaged In work on a pro-
duction. Miss Marsh Is surrounded
by some clever youngsters In "The
Glorious Adventure" her latest Cold
wyn production, which comes to the
Alta Theater Sunday and Monday
In several interesting scenes Miss
Marsh is seen prancing with the kid
dies. soothing them when tears stain
their faces because of fancled griev-
ances or joining them in playing with
their dolls and toys. In several out
door scenes the noted screen artist
injects much more play than the di-
rector really intended for swapping.
Miss Marsh has taken a particular
fancy to little Kitty Campbell. one of
the little extras in the play. Her abiI-
ity to grasp what she IL expected to
do at the first command has made
her a favorite with Miss Marsh. Be-
tween scenes at the studio little Kitty
could always be seen in the company
of the star either in her dressing
room or In the big studio 'lot."
One would think little Kitty was
sister to Miss Marsh to see the star
cuddling and playing with her at eV-
cry opportunity" said Hobart Hem
ley director of THE Glorious Adven-
ture."
