A little later some of the officials came in, and then began the task of fitting the papers to the men | and getting them off in the train. They wanted me to stay to read the names, as they were so difficult to pronounce. I made another list of men who had to go off on stretchers. told the doctors, in French where they were wounded, and so on, and did not get back to the house until 12 nooon. It was rather long stretch from 10 the night before especially as I had nothing to drink or eat.
 "In the afternoon I went to the canteen. Some of the people in- were beginning to leave, and the in- habitants were all gathered in knots | around the street. The military movement through the town was something amazing. Of course ,ex- ! citement ran high. We spent all our days and nights-until Saturday night at the hospital, with only two people left at the canteen. "I can't tell you anything about it-only with the most vivid imag- ination. I do not think anyone can dream of such suffering, such pa tlence, such heroism, or such terri ble wreckage, and until one has seen 1t they can not know what war means. We found more than we could do even with our lack of know ledge, giving the men water. wash Ing their bloody faces, interpreting oetwen the English and the French doctors, and wishing we could go hundred times as fast One French boy brought water to, and the tears rolled down his face, he had waited so long for it-and for a French boy to cry like that means more than other nationalities
 T have found that you can bear seeing the most horrible wounds if you are doing something. I was so afraid l would not have the cour- age' but when l was doing some thing l did not think of that side or It. went into the operating room-or, rather, the room where the wounds were cleansed and dress ed-and gave water to the men on the tables, but the hardest thing was to give milk or water to the men whose faces were completely smash ed to pieces. No words could de- scribe such sublime endurance of suffering.
 Friday night we had heavy air rad. Miss E., Miss L., and l were in bed and were cauobt in the house before we could % to the cave, and I must say we were pretty scared, not only for our selves, but for those at the canteen and the hosiptal. When a break came we made dash for the cave next door, but the next day we had mattresses taken to one of the cham pagne caves, and all F of us slept there-at least tried to sleep. ~.
 ''The hospitals were evacuated Saturday, so after Saturday there was nothing more for us to do there, and we went back to canteen work. Saturday night came a telegram from the ambassador, asking the general to make possible Emma's and my return to Paris. Of course, we could not leave like towards be- fore the rest of the unit left, so we sent the telegram to him, say ing that unless he had bad news for us from home we preferred not to leave -, telling him to cable you that we were well and we'll taken care of.
 Sunday afternoon the first obus (shell) fell in the town, and that night 1t was decided that 10 of us should leave, 7 staying, Emma and among them, but Monday morning MISS E-- said only the fo,,r ubo

Red Cross Roll Call Means Much
for Anti berculosis
Work in Virginia.

Richmond. Va, Dec. II
Forty thousand Virginia con-
sumpfives-meu and women
struggling against the grip OF a
pitiless disease-will benefit by
the Red Cross roll call which
takes place throughout the Union
during the week of December
1928. In other words, the Red
Cross Society has announced a
purpose to devote 81. 10000 Of
the funds derived from its great
mem bership drive to the various
state anti-tuberculoSis associa-
tious of the land, and the Old
Dominion, of course, will get her
proportiouate share. Can any
with the milk of human kind
ness III their souls resist such ali
appeal ?
Heretofore the Red Cross has
aided the fight against tuber-
culosis through the sale of its
Christmas. seals, but this year.
owing to unusual conditions, it
will provide the needed funds in
a different way. A portion of
its one-dollar membership fees
will be devoted to the cause
which means so much for the
comfort and protection of hui
mankind. And while no seals
will be sold they will uevertE e.
less be available to tile public.
Every one who joins the Red
Cross will receive a packet con
tanning ten Of the pretty little
stamps as well as litera ture il
regard to the battle against con
sumption.
1t need hardly be added tina

| Association, All unfailing ally O

tivities, to aid the Red Cross rol
call. In this work it will utiliz'
the $50 groups of unselfish soul!
who in the past have sold thu

The closing of the manganese

The closing of the manganese
mines N Shenandoah county
throws out of employ ment 275
men. These mines have con-
tributed much to the prosperity
Of a large number of families.
In the Little Fort mines, two
hundred men were employed and
in the mines in the Cedar Greek
Valley about twenty-five were
employed.
While the Fort mines yield ore
of the finest quality, it will soon
be in competition with the Rus
sian mines which furnish the
same quality of ore at a much
lower price.
The importation of the Euro
pean ore may be of advantage TO
the manufactured WHO will be
able to get their supply at less
cost, but it will be disastrous to
the miners and laborerS who have
been employed at the Stockw God
aud other mines, III this county.
Much money has been distributed
by the mines.
A protective tariff protects the
few at the cost of the mary and
the general government is not
bene fitted thereby. AT this
time, the expenses Of the govern
n1ent are so great that hig Ii
revenue tariff is deemed neces-
sary, Much depends upon the
placing OF this taliff upon various
articles many OF which are pro-
duced i'll this country. Why not
give manganese ore par! OF 1t
Why not encourage the Infant
industries in this section as has
been the practice i'll many other
sections ? Shenandoah, we are
reliably informed has as high
grade ore as can be obtained
anywhere, but it does no good sc
long as it is permitted to remain
i'll our mountains.

Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 10, 10.
DEAR OLD HERALD -

LEAR Old HERALD -
After leaving home on Nov.
lst. | was met here by my boys
who are both well and success
full. Que is in the real estate
business and the other, DIR. Ira
Saun1, is dentist, was married |
on the End of November to onel
OF lCleyeland's fair daughters. |
The wedding was quiet one at
the home of the bride. They re-
ceived many handsome presents.
Cleveland has greatly improved
since my visit of three years
ago. The city and surrounding
country have had many deaths
from flu. the schools are still
CLOSED. Crowds from the city and
surrounding country enjoyed the
war exposition from the 10th to
9th inclusive, at one time eight
aeroplanes were doing stunts
over head, one coming low
enough to take the number, 49,
40. The sham battles at night
were wonderful. This city was
quite jubilant over the dry cleo
ton, but more SO over the arms
tice.
During the peace celebration,
one man was killed by falling
under truck and one woman
was struck by an auto and died
that night. Well, in this world
of sorrow and sunshine we NAV
sometimes think the sorrow out
weighs the sunshine, but we
read i'll the Psalms. Sorrow NAV
endure for season, but JOY
lcometh in the morning.
| l am having nice visit with
my boys ard their friends, went
for All auto trip with some ladies
today, to Hiram College, had {
fine trip and saw my grandson
and niece, Mildred Saum, whl
are at college here. A street cal
strike here last week was caused
by the men conductors objectine
to women conductors. Poor wo
men, they must always bear the
blame, just as they did in Adam
time. The strike was settled by
the women stepping down on the
LIST CT March. Cleveland ha:
about eight or nine hundred con
ductors and $50 of them are wo
men. My Youngest son, Glenr
has been in France since las
May doing his part toward bring
ing about peace. We received /;
letter from him Nov. 9th saying
that they had left the firing lin,
and were then back IS miles TO

over this. l expect to leave her
