Smith and enquiries: Did you ever
know a man in your regiment
named John jones'" "Oh, yes
James Smith replies, II know him
well, a little chap with sandy hair"
Work Is Intricate.
The searcher then proceeds to
find out II Smith was In the same
action where Jones was reported
missing and II Smith saw Jones on
that day. Smith perhaps saw Jones
taken prisoner or lying wounded.
but being wounded himself was
sent to the rear without this infor-
nation ever being embodied in any
ones report. In fact, he had no
knowledge that Jones was missing
A good deal OF information is thus
obtained as to the fate OF missing
men. In both France and England
this work is being done for the
American Red Cross by women
workers. To most 1t seems one
of the most interesting and use
ful works which can be done by
women. The British Red Cross at
present receives more than 5000
reports a month from their search
ers and they are thus able to re-
move daily from the Enquiry List"
a considerable number OF names
our work in this same line is Just
beginning. but its results already
fully Justify us In emphasizing It's
importance both from the point OF
view Of the army and from that Of
the people at home.

MOTHER CRUNCH IS
LOVED BY SOLDIERS
Good Old Woman Who Helps Make
Life Worth Living For Boys
Who Arc In Hospital
tRv MARGARET WALTER. J


LONDON, Oct. l9.--Sir Thomas
Upton lives quite near our hospital
and since the day 1t opened he has
been doing things. He invites the
boys in punches OF fifty or more to
parties. Sends motor cars for them
in the morning and returns them at
night. on Sunday the nurses had
to wake the boys up to get them
ready to start. Sir Thomas has
fine dinner waitingI for them, pro-
vides music-the very best singers
and pianists are proud to accept his
invitations-and there arc games
and all kinds OF entertainments. And
It's the same with the staff. Officers,
nurses, matrons, orderlies and spec
ialists, all come in for their invita-
tions. So it's no wonder that Sir
Thomas shabby little brown run
about Is hailed with cheers when
ever It swings up the drive.
But Sir Thomas isn't the only hos
pitable neighbor. Mother Crunch is
one OF a different kind, but scarcely
less appreciated. She keeps a little
sweet chop" down at the corner.
She has never been the least ambi-
tious about her shop; It is dark and
shabby And she isn't ~conceited
about her little homemade candies
and cakes. But It happens that she
is ono OF those natural artists in
cookery and whatever she touches
turns out we'll. YouIcan't talk TO a
boy five minutes without his asking
you, wouldn't you like some real
American candy. Imagine It! And
we in London haven't had candy for
a year. Well, like as not the boy
