WRITES ABOUT GAS ATTACKS.
Private Roland NJ Cragg Also Tells OF
Heroism BY Two Comrades.

Private Roland n Cragg, formerly OF
Barre, who is driving an ambulance in
France, has written his grandmother
Mrs. Abbe J. Mason, under date of Feb.
25, that after few days rest he is pre-
pairing to 20 back to the front for the
spring drive. He writes of the effect of
a German gas attack and says: Gas is
a terrible thing OF course, we have
gas masks, but the worst of it all is
that one cannot always tell when they
are in some kinds of gas till he begins
to get very sick; then he puts on his
mask and drives on, with pain either
in the chest or head, to the Poste or
hospital and there receives treatment
One Of our boys had to 90 through
gas as his patients were very bad and
it was necessary to get to the hospital
very quickly. IL was thick gas and lay
quite fog between the two hills. An
other of the boys waited on the hill for
the gas to clear up a little. The first
car soon was hidden from sight in the
fog. After quite time had passed, the
boy on the hill had not seen the car come
out and go over the next hill, so he
went in to see into the trouble. He
was just in time; the first car had been
hit by a team drawn by frantic horses
and wrecked, and the driver of our ear
was having trouble with his mask. 1t
was leaking and he was almost ready to
give in when the second car found him.
He and his patients were taken by the
driver of the second car to the hospital.

The action of few German soldiers in
deserving and surrendering themselves
to small body of Americans out in No
Mans land ON a patrol expedition can
not be taken as significant of any marked
weakening in the morale of the German
army at this time. 1t is probably more
likely that these few men were never
enthusiastic about their work and were
forced into the fighting by reason of the
fact that they were caught in the
clutches of the Prussan military ma
chine, quitting the service at time when
they came across good opportunity. 1t
may be that they were among the new
recruits being constantly brought into
the army service of the German nation
and not yet imbued with the do-or-de
spirit of the veteran soldier, So the
American people should not place too
much significance on the report which
came from the American army headquar
ters Friday, not that the report was not
true but because it was slight incident
of war. When the Germans begin to
flock over in whole companies il can be
put down for fact that the German
morale is at a low ebb.

THE NEWS FROM THE FRONT
WHAT 1T MEANS TO US.

While, admittedly, the early reports OF
the great battle in northern France are
somewhat depressing from the view
point of the allies, it must be borne in
mind that a great offensive, such as this
undoubtedly is on the part of the Ger
mans, invariably sweeps ahead at the
outset of the clash through sheer weight
of the tremendous momentum of the at
tack IL has happened time after time
