EARNS IA CENTS A DAY;
HAS WIFE AND BABY
And YET This True Story Has a
Happy Ending.

Even a Frenchman sometimes loses,
for awhile at least, his "unfailing'
sense of humor.
Take, for instance, the case of a
man from Lille, a soldier, Waeltele by
name and only twenty-three. He had
done pretty well, for the y~oungster had
already his own printing shop in that
northern French town, which is still in
side the German lines, In the trenches
Waeltele developed tuberculosis, and
he was sent to a hospital at Grenoble.
There he was considered incurable,
and after the usual three months of
treatment he was granted his IA cents
a day pension. Said his fatherly army
doctor, "My son, you a perhaps cure
yourself if you will live in the noun
tains, if you will eat plenty of nour
ishing food and, above all, If you don't
worry"
WaeItele should have smiled, but he
didn't. He was thinking OF his baby
and his wife-and his IA cents. "Don's
worry" The humor Of It entirely es-
capped him.
Then the Red Cross stepped in. He
was found by an American woman
with some American Red Cross money
for just such cases, and within a few
hours he no longer had need to worry.
He was sent to the mountains at La
mure, in the French Alps, happy in
the knowledge that his family was be-
ing cared for by these amazingly kind
Americans.
And now the army doctors words
are coming true. Waeltele's lung is
healing fast, and he is dreaming of
another printing shop and of living
again some day with that little family.
There have been over 100000 new
cases Of tuberculosis in France sinte
the war started, and to care for these
cases and check the White Plaques
spread is merely one of the big jobs
the American Red Cross has set out to
accomplish.

TINE HOPE OF THE WORLD
BY HAROLD BELL WRIGHT.

THE hope Of the world is not alone
that the armies of humanity will
be victorious, but that the spirit and
purpose of our warfare will prevail in
our victory. The hope Of the world
is in the Red Cross, because the Red
Cross is voicing this spirit and pur-
pose that must, through the force OF
our arms, triumph. Just to the de-
gree that we can evidence this Red
Cross spirit of mercy and brother
hood we will hold true in the dam
gerous hour Of victory to the ideals
that have forced us into the trenches
in the defense Of human rights and
human liberty.
The n IN and saving thought.
in this delirium Of death that now
possesses the world is the Red Cross.
Wherever the storms of battle
hell rage, amid the fires Of ruthless
destruction, in trench and camp and
hospital, these soldiers of mercy with
heroism unsurpassed are carrying the
flag Of the highest conceivable ideals
Of humanity. The ideals for which
our armies have taken the field are,
by these unarmed hosts, proclaimed
to friend and foe, in that unmistaka-
bic language of universal mercy and
brotherhood. In the terms Of wasted
towns rebuilt, Of broken humanity
salvaged, of dying children rescued,
Of desolate families succored, the Red
Cross declares the cause for which we
war and proclaims the principles and
ideals that must and will in the end
prevail. Above che thunder Of the
guns, the oar of exploding mines,

w~as-above, the eternal blue; in the
background, fields OF living green,
which the German shells could not
prevent from creeping back; In the
middle foreground, a long village
street so battered and burned that
1t was merely a canyon of cream-eol
ored ruins. In front of one little
broken house were four figures in
black-an old woman. poklng among
the fallen stones In a vain search for
something that could be used a
younger woman, seated on what had
once been a doorstep, with her face
hidden in her arms; and a little hoy
and girl, who stared, half frightened.
half curious, at the desolation about
,nem. The little boy held In his thin
hand a Red Cross flag. All four were
pale and gaunt the faces and bodies
Of the children showed none Of the
round curves that make the beauty Of
a child.
This is their history: When the
war broke out, Nine. Pellier, her
mother and her four younger children
were visiting her husbands mother In
the north of France. Her husband
and two elder sons were at home in
Lorraine taking care OF the summer
crops. Then the warl The mother
in-law Of Mime. Pelller was III and
could not be left. Her old mother
was afraid to travel TO Lorraine with
the full care OF the four children. Be
fore they could all start together the
Germans Invaded. Bad news is allow
ed to come into northern France, and
so as the months passed Nine. pellier
learned that her Village home had been
b~ombarded and that her husband and
two sons had been killed. Except for
the Belgian Relief Commission, which
operates In northern France also, she
and her little ones would have starved
outright. AT the best they were un-
er'nourished. Then the great push

children-even into Germany. This
was rel, ;sed. She tried to seek safety

Reimbursement. Nevertheless a shell
killed two OF her children.
