miles of fighting lines when their
caravan responds to the emergency
calls it is designed to meet,
Each unit is planned to be equiv

besides living quarters for the
nurses and transport space for their
supplies, the five sections OF motor

Miss Thompson now places the
total enrolment of the Army Nurse

the number will pass 10000 before

now wearing the uniform abroad,

were splendid lot and, though they
have dug post-holes till their backs
were lame, they always come to play
the piano and sing and write their
letters in the evenings. Because
they believe rightly that rest sta
tion must be home like, cheerful and
restful. the construction department
built charming brick buildings with
well plastered walls and ceilings
and | was allowed to decorate and
furnish them as thought best.
IF the women at home and the
men, too, could see how their boys
appreciate it all, how they love the
cleanliness and the color and the
gaiety, how glad they are for every
pretty thing you do for them, if
you could see their poor tired faces
relax when they settle down, you
would realize what this side OF it
means. War is such an ugly thing,
such a dirty, sordid thing; at best
there are so many hateful unaccus-
toned things our men here have to
do that at least We can give them
warmth and cleanliness and color
wherever we can.

tired men falling out of cattle
train where they have been cooped
up two or three days with detach-
ment of mules, eating and sleeping
with them. They have couple OF
showers with plenty of soap and
towels given to them and then have
hours to wait, so they take a hot
good meal, waited upon by such
cheerful, kindly American girls,
play the piano a bit, write a letter
home and go. Those people who
have given us the money to do this

The whole rest station when fur

most attractive. The infirmary is SO
fresh and clean with its write en-
amel paint and muslin curtains; the
other rooms are as gay and bright
and full of color as paint and cur
tains and plants and flowers can
make them. There are such good
beds and r.ottresses in the dormi-
tory, such warm fires on cold days,
such quantities of electric lights and
tables for writing with unlimited

newspapers and magazines of all
kinds.
