With the American Armies on the

fight to save Paris and turn the tide
in the most critical moment Of the war.
1t is of the mothers the men in the
line are thinking 1t is to the mothers
that messages from the wounded are
being sent. The chaplain leans over
the incoming stretchers and asks the
soldier if he wants a message sent. The
first words Of the reply almost always
are "tell mother.
One boy who was seriously wounded
said:
"I've been sort of q wanderer for
the last six years. I guess the folks
thought / was good for nothing. But
now | wish you would write mother
for me and just tell her made good. +"
Thoughts of what their mothers
would have them do have Duoyed them
up in the hospitals as these same
thoughts have made them the terror
of the Marne.
The marines have made all their al
-taeks with full PACKS weighing 81
pounds. These packs were shot clean

slight flesh wound.
