pays them fifty cents day for the
work they do. When they were cap
tured they were almost starved. Most
oil them seem TO be old men. or boys
as young as thirteen years. and they
certainly are sick OF the war.
Our soldiers say the Germans are
using two women and one man to man
their machine guns. When they are
going TO retreat they chain them TO
their post so they will keep on firing
on the advancing allies, but they have
been known TO turn the gun upon
their own people, so this shows that
they are up against It. right.
Had very interesting trip through
France, put they are fifty years be-
hind US in their styles. Their rail-
roads are old and very small. The
Americans have taken over the whole
main division and have about fourteen
! big locomotives operating on them.
They take about FIVE times as much
In train as one of the French loco
motives. They have three different
classes OF coaches, but / don't know
what class our "side-door Pullman"
is In. 1t is about the size OF big
dry goods box.
The cities and towns OF France are
very we'll built, all of some kind OF
stone and very prettily located. The
country here does not look a bit like
war, except that we see great many
soldiers, and very few in civilian
clothes.
Have enjoyed my trip very much, 80
far. Will have many interesting
stories to tell when get back.
Haven't seen anyone / know or that
is from our home or vicinity SO far.
Saw some OF the And engineers. Ask
ed them about Capt. Burridge and
Todd Webb. They did not know them,
but they came across on the same
boat. II you can get me their address
might find out where they are.

not worrying Don't think It will be

Germ diseases seem always to be
one OF the terrible disasters which
follow In the wake OF great wars. Of
ten in the past such events have PROV
en- fatal 70 larger number OF peo-
pie than the war Itself. But modern
and scientific methods OF handling
germ disease. will effectively cope
with the present acute and infectious
disease popularity known as Spanish
influenza
In 1889 and 90 similar form OF
the disease called La Grippe prevail
ed In Europe and rapidly spread, so
that the disease made its appearance
In America almost as soon as in Eur
ope. The newly discovered germ Is
said to have qualities differing from
the old forms OF influenza. The fever
runs higher. it's development more
rapid, but OF shorter duration and less
OF intestinal disturbance and the
course OF the disease more decisive
for better or worse.
The imminent danger is in the pos
sible development OF pneumonia. The
precautionary treatment Is absolute
rest in bed with plenty OF pure air,
good nourishment and calling in of
the family physician to keep close
watch OF symptoms and treat the case
as II requires, and TO make the pa
tient as comfortable as possible.
The symptoms OF the present pam
demic are an acute and often very
sudden onset, with pain in head, eyes
and back, weakness and aching body,
chills and rapidly rising temperature,
sometimes running up to 104 degrees.
The pulse remains rather slow. with
loss OF appetite and marked prostra
/ ton The eyes and membranes OF
nose, throat and brochi show infiam-
alton. The course of the fever is us
ually from three to four days.
1t attacks both young and old, but
adults are more susceptible.
All evidence shows contact to be
the most prolific means Of spread. Al
the poisoning comes from nose and
throat, coughing and sneezing, except
behind a handkerchief. is dangerous
to others and should bear equal con-
domination with splitting in public
places.
The avoidance of crowds is to be
urged, at this time, as one means OF
preventing spread. Army doctors and
public nurses find gauze mask USE
full in prevention.
