feeding the fishes Joe also did the
same thing, but | wasn't the least bit
sea sick all the way, saw Bernard

nov. Hardly know what we should
do without them
The happiest time ! had was when
] sighted the French coast from the
ship. Land sure looked good to me.
France as I haveNeen it is sure a pc
culiar place. The habits and customs
of the place seem very strange to me.
Where we are located it doesn't look
like there has been an advancement
in centuries. Have seen only two
automobiles besides the army trucks.
People carry their stuff around in
baskets and the only transportation
have seen is two wheeled carts
drawn by one horse The railroad
trains are the funniest things you
ever saw. About three or four
coaches would make one American
car.
This town is very historical
place but will have to tell you all
about it later This French language
is worse than Indian talk ever was
but l am going to try my best to
learn to talk it.
"a have never seen as nice weather
as it is here. The days are warm
and the nights cool and pleasant.
Just cool enough for an overcoat. II
am feeling better now than l ever
did in my life 50 / guess this country
will agree with me all right. We are
now living in cur dog tents-I sup
pose you know what they are. am
really enjoying it.
People in this country don't drink
anything but wine and laugh at us
for drinking water | have had
taste of their wine and it is pretty
good stuff but l had rather have
American wine.
Haven't done any work so far but
it is coming soon, suppose. We are
all anxious for the time to come when |
we rln get into action But l must

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
AID ALL IN WAR SERVICE
(Boston Adyertiser.l

]
Christian Science camp welfare
work is now being carried on in for
ty-five army and navy camps in the
United States under direction Of the
Christian Science War Relief ana
Camp Welfare committee Of The First
Church Of Christ, Scientist, in Bos-
ton. There are at presen tabout sew
enty men and fifteen women engag-
cd in this work, the women serving
mainly as welfare room attendants.
Conducted at first Independently
the camp welfare work has been
merged with the war relief work
which the Christian Scientists were
doing in foreign countries before the
United States entered the war For
both these purposes about one million
dollars have been raised.
The aim Of the Christian Science
camp workers is to be as helpful as
possible to all the men in the camps.
whether or not they are Christian
Scientists, and particularly to give as
sistance which may not be available
at the time or place through any of
the other camp welfare agencies. A
feature Of this phase Of the work is
arrangement for Keeping soldiers and
sailors in close touch with their rel
atives.
Cooperating with the committee
in Boston, there is a Christian Sci
ence camp welfare committee in each
state. The committee in the home
state of a soldier or sailor cooper
ates by mail and telegraph with the
committee Of the state in which he
is camped or stationed to form di-
rect and constant link. between the
soldier or sailor and his relatives
Thereby the relatives are quickly |
made acquainted with needs Of their
boy in the service, and he is proyid- |
ed with an avenue Of quick commu-
nication with his home.
This linking of home and camp |
combined with the personal atten-
tion of the Christian Science workers
in the camps has frequently been the
means of changing soldiers outlook
from one of gloom to one of joy, and
not infrequently it has proved to be
the means of relieving relatives of
financial embarrassment, the commit
tee in the home state making loans
for use by the relatives until their
boy in camp should be prepared to
money to them.
The net result, for which the Chris
tian Science committees and camp
workers have received many com
has been a noticeable
raising OF the morale of many men
in the service and the development
Of better feeling at home regarding
the participation Of their boys in the
The camp workers say there is an
willingness among the com
officers and surgeons to al
low Christian Science treatment for
those men who. ask for it, and many
Christian Science healings have been
recorded. Recently, two requests for
Christian Science services in hospital
wards were received by camp work
ers from medical nurses who had OBJ
served the beneficial effects of Chris
ian Science treatment
In or near numerous camps, the
Christian Science committees have
erected substantial buildings, with
luiet places for reading and writing.

A majority cf the popes have been
Italians, but there is no national linn
itation. Pope Clement II, for example,
was a Saxon German, whose family
name was Suidser; Clement " was a
Frenchman named Leo Gros; Clement
V was a Frcnchman named d'Ageust; !;
Clement VI was another Frenclman
named Pierre Roger; Alexander vi
was Spaniard, named Borgia; Calix-
tux II was'a Frenchman and Calixtux
III was Spaniard named Bcrgia and
was uncle to Alexander VI These are
few examples of non-Itaiian popes.
