A PITIFUL CASE.

After reading an editorial in a re-
cent issue of The Robesonian under
the caption "Be Not Too Cautious" a
lady sends for the editors perusal a
letter she had just received from a
brother. She thinks it the "saddest
and most pitiful letter" she ever read ;
and it really is sad and pitiful story.
The writer tells how every member OF
the family had had influenza and one
of the daughters had died, "and I
could not get doctor and no one
would come about us. Not
one single one of our people nor neigh
bors even came near as the road. j
S* to ask whether we were llv-
ing or dead. You talk about these
Christians, | would not give
one red cent for every bit of religion
there is in this neighborhood. There
is none mere. ! could not get enough
men by begging them to help the old
colored woman put --- in the cas-
ket. l had to put her in myself
These people are scared to die and
we'll they may be, for they know
where their portion is" No use tc
give names and places, for the same
conditions have obtained in commu-
mites everywhere 1t is monstrous
that such things can happen in 9
Christian land; but even as one is
stirred with pity by tale of woe like
that one learns of noble women who
are Drawing sickness and death daily
to relieve suffering strangers, with
out hope Of reward. Many peopl>
became panic stricken and horribl!
afraid when the "flu" first strucl
their community but later were
ashamed and braved the danger ant
rendered noble service. 1t is indeed ;
shame that any instances such as re
lated in the letter quoted from abov'
should have occurred, but let us hop
that such instances have been yer.
rare and that in most instances al,
has been given, where it was possibl
to give aid, regardless Of danger.
The Robesonian., 1918-11-07

Some soldiers who have had the
seemingly impossible luck to pass
through great battles unharmed, find
death lurking for them in most as
tonishing ways and unexpected places.
Many man has defied death when
death seemed waiting for him, but
death passed him by and later found
him in most impossible way. A
news story tells how young hero,
wounded desperately in the fierce
fighting at st. Mihiel and invalided
home, hastened eagerly to the old
home, arrived late at night, and was
just about to be gathered into the
arms of his mother and grandmother
when the man Of the house, mistaking
him for a burglar, shot him dead.
Some one writing some time ago
about some daring airmen who had
oeen flying since the war began and
had killed many Huns and had many
narrow escapes, quoted one of them
as saying that he probably would 20
to the end of the war without a
scratch and then stub his toe and fall
and break his neck or be run owe,
by a flivver. Fate plays some as.
tonishing tricks.

PEACE BY CHRISTMAS?

It looks that way now. The COL
lapse of Turkey and Austria leaves
Germany surrounded by enemies and
without an ally. It looks like Ger
many is bound to give up the strug-
gle soon. When Turkey and Austria
are finally disposed of 100000 al.
lied troops will be released to throw
against the Huns. Events are moving
so fast these days that Germany may
be expected to collapse almost any
day. The military masters of Ger
many have stayed off the day as long
as possible, but it will be no longer
possible for them to keep the Ger
man people in ignorance of the true
state of affairs. But it will be time
to shout only when Germany is def
nitely out of the war. Germany car
put up a long and hard fight yet, il
she elects to do so, and the war will
not be over until Germany accepts thu
terms of the Allies, no matter hov
long it may take to bring her to tina
point.

RED Cross Nurses and Doctors
Treat You Like a King

The following is taken from letter
received by Mr.. and Mrs. G. L. Beard
of Parkton from their son Sergeant
Gordon S. Beard, Co. L, 119 U. S. Inf,
in France, the letter dated Septe. ~:
"There has never been over four or
five days between my letters but once,
and that was when [ was in the hos
pital. l am in the company now, on
duty again, and certainly am glad OF
it. There wasn't much the trouble
with me, just got little whit OF
Jerry's perfume" and it made me
sick for few days.
But it wasn't very serious at any
time. But there is one thing that I
must say for these Red Cross nurses
and doctors over here in these hos
pitals: If you come out Of the lines
with anything the matter with you,
they treat you like a king, even ii
you are only sick; but the wounded
and gassed ore in paradise when they
go to hospital. They forget all
about their a1ls and pains, for it is
so much like home that is about all
you can think Of. l stayed there
about 20 days, and never was as sorry

just as glad to get back to my pla-
