The Wars Wreckaae.

Then came the war. A little rivulet
of the wars wreckage began to trickle
in at Evian-"repatries," elderly men
and women, children, even babies, who
had once lived in the parts of France
engulfed by the German tides and
whom the Germans, finding them use
less, were beginning to ship back into
France by way of Switzerland. Grad
ually this rivulet swelled. Soon 1000
of these unfortunates were arriving
at Evian daily. AND fully half Of
them were children, undernourished,
thinly clad, dirty, sickly and, worse,
grim. spiritless, with faces that had
forgotten how to smile.
To care for these children was the
task your Red Cross at once assumed.
Working with the French authorities,
the Red Cross secured permission to
make use of the old and almost forgot.

Spy System Originated by italian.

Secret service organizations and
spy systems, as we'll as detective bu-
reaus as part of municipal police
forces, were originated by the Mar
quis D'ArgensOn, a native of Venice
who went to France in 1887 and be-
came head Of the police department.
D'ArgensOn first achieved fame as
a state secret agent in Venice. In
Paris he organized a municipal secret
agency that would now be called a de-
tective bureau. After he had trans
formed the Paris police force from a
disOrderly band into a highly efficient
body of gendarmes, he turned his at
tentiOn to international affairs and in
augurated a system of espionage ir
foreign nations likely to be at wal
with France.
Carl Stieher organized the PrussiaI
spy system on the model furnished BY
D'ArgensOn's force and sent thousand!
of men into Austria and France be

CHATEAU DES HALLES
NOW CHILDRENS HOSPITAL
One of the Most Complete ES-

France, With Jolly PIayrOoms

Up in the mountains, where the
snow falls early and lies deep, 80 miles
from Lyons. is the little French village
of Les Halles-a story book village,
with it's massive stone church standing
sentinel over two long rows ef trim,
blue-gray plaster cottages. And a mile
farther on is the Chateau des Halles,
where your Red Cross has established
a home for 200 sick children.
Manginl built the chateau. Man
gini was the man who built the rail-
road along the Riviera and many 9TH
er railroads in France. And thirty
odd years ago he built this castle up
in the mountains for his country home.
But soon after his two children died.
Then he died, and when his widow fol-
lowed him she left the chateau to the
city of Lyons to be used as hospital
for children.

TURK FIGHTS WITH FISTS
Story of a GaIlipoIi "Scrap" That
Speaks Well for the "Un-
speakable."

There is a tale of GallipOli that
deals with a fight in the open and eX-
hibits the "unspeakable" Turk as a
fair and worthy enemy. This is the
story
A young English officer, doing OBJ
servatiOn work alone, was suddenly
confronted by a Turkish officer, slml-
larly engaged The Turk was as sur
prised as the BritOn, but came forward
revolver in hand. The Englishman
had no revOlvers. He stood his ground,
his hands in the large pockets of his
tunic.
Seeing that his adversary was un-
armed, the Turk, much to the surprise
of the BritOn. threw down his gun and
put up his fists in approved prize ring
style. The EngliShman put himself
on guard, and the next moment the
Turk flung himself on him, and the
pair began to fight desperately.
The men were about the same age,
the same weight and had adequate
knowledge of the art of boxing. They
fought without stopping for about ten
minutes. BY that time each was eX-
hausted, and then paused for brief
rest, only to continue their little private
accounting when they had found their
breath.
Round after round the fight went on,
while out in the Gulf of SarOs the
ships fired automatically, and back
of each of them the field artillery
thundered. Neither seemed to be able
to get any decisive advantage over the
other, and at last Turk and English
man rolled over on the ground ahc
laughed and laughed.
Just then the Englishman's hare
touched something. 1t was the Turk
pistol. He picked it up and handed j
to his enemy. Then the two youn'
men shook hands and each returned
to his own lines.

Rooms Big and jolly.

But what a wonderful task It has
accomplished The Chateau des
Halles, transformed into a children's
hospital and rest home in furious
haste under the terrible pressure OF
war needs, with little time to think
twice and no time to retrieve errors,
is not only one of the most complete
establishments Of its kind 1t is one Of
the best children's hospitals in all
France. The two rooms where the
arriving children are isolated for a
few days are big, jolly rOOms-just
what is need to efface from the little
ones minds the memories of those iron
days behind the German lines. The
big play room is strewn with rocking
horses and wonderful smile-enticing
parrots and other toys carved by the
wounded poilus.
And so you stray from room to room,
and everywhere you find new evil
dences of this watchful care. And
then you reach the bathrooms. This
| chateau was built by man of wealth.
Its plumbing was excellent, and yet II
has been stripped out and replaced
with little, low wash basins and little
shower baths that the children can use
more comfortably.
That is how your Red Cross thinks
