About g o'clock we were asked, not ordered to come to; the station at the foot of the funiculaire, the little mountain railway which was to take us up to a much higher altitude. The funiculaire consisted of two small cars, holding about fifty persons, one of which was fastened at each end of long steel cable. There was a single track, more than mile long. which rose at an angle of about 45 degrees. As our car went up the other came down, the two passing in the middle at a point where. the track was made double for this plrpose. While the first fifty of us were boarding the car a compartment of one end was loaded with what we considered an enormous amount of baggage and freight. We noted the steepness of the incline, and glanced at the steel cable, which though very strong. did not seem to us strong enough to negotiate that heavy load. Having stared death in the face som many tinse before and come through successfully, we did not wish to die unheroically by, the -snapping of that cable.
 The Swiss officer got on board and we decided that if. he, knowing all 1 about it. was willing to take chance, | !. 1 Wonderful Mountains.

 snow was everywhere. There had
 been great fall during the night clung to the branches of the fir trees and glistened in the. rays of the early morning sun.

 arrived at Muren, a small cluster o1
 houses and hotels perched on the yer,

CAPT uRED
XXEII

With what sigh of relief we set tied back into the plush seats of that Swiss train. We were travelling in 6rst-class carriages, just as though we had paid our fare. A very nice Swiss Oficef, followed by several stretcher- \ bearers came through to see that we were all comfortable and asked us if there was anything we wanted. The l only thing we could think of was large brick to hurl at the Germans standing on the station platform, but we did not tell him this. We acted. { just as though we were dining with wealthy friends whom we hardly knew.
 On the train were Al English Tom : mics and twenty officers There was i a comfortable seat for every man who ! could sit up, and there were hospital : cars for the stretcher cases. I doubt ! if in the whole world at that moment there were happier lot of men. But there wasn't a cheer or any other sign of joy. We were. still on German ter ritory, and before we crossed the border wheel might come off the en- zine or there might be an earthquake. We were taking no chances.
 In Switzerland.
 Just after the train pulled out of the station we entered Switzerland. We were out of the hands of the Huns at last. We looked out of the windows and saw women and children standing in the snow outside their doors, way ing handkerchiefs and shouting "Vive PAngleterre." A spontaneous cheer went up from every man. It was the most thrilling time of our lives.
 As we whirled on through the night the cheering and waving con- tinued until the train made it's first stop in a Swiss town. The station platform was packed with people, who crowded to the car windows and. showered us with flowers, chocolate, cigarettes and cigars.
 This was carried out not only by the girls in their smart Red Cross uni- forms but many civilians made pri- vste donaations as well.
 As the train pulled out of the sta ton the men hung out of the windows cheering and waving the Swiss flags that had been given them. It was a wonderful sensation to feel that we were really welcome in Switzerland. The personal element had recently so absolutely disappeared from our lives that this sudden show of enthusiasm brought Jumps to our throats.
 London Papers,
 A British Government official had boarded the train and brought with him an armful of London papers. With the exception of the Continental Times a pro-German paper published in Ger many and distributed free among the prisoners in order to try to dis courage them, we had not seen a

ELks' GENEROSITY. f

 Reconstruction Hospital.

Putnam lodge of Elks rates high among the fraternal orga nizations of the city during this period of war. it is shown by it's patriotis mand liberal ity in upholding war measures.
 The lodge subscribed for S2000 in Liberty bonds raised it's allotment of sz00 of the National Red Cross fund gave $100 to the Putnam chapter of the Red Cross. s10O to the Y MFG. A. campaign fund in this city and $50 to the Knights of Columbus war fund.

 Nor is this all. Though the war has been the means of again demonstrat- ing the well known characteristic of generosity on the part of the order and it's members, a generosity that is unsurpassed by any fraterna1 organi- Zation in the world the usual chari- table works conducted here. at home have not been neglected. Though their giving to local charities has been lib- eral indeed, this is subject on which the members decline to talk and knowledge of it comes only from those who have benefited through the kind
