Marcel Gets His
Barn Mended
Red Cross Helps This IS Year
Old French Boy-and His
Family.

Marcel is a man. He Is just fifteen
years old, but yet he is a man. | say
he is a man because in the last four
years time has burned into his child
heart marks that should wait for stern
er maturity. He is a man because he
has the responsibility of a woman. He
has no father. The Germans saw to
that. Marcel has had to stand by and
see his small brothers and baby sister
ask in vain for food while he fought
off the pressing call from his growing
boys stomach. He has had to see
tears from his mothers eyes drop on
the plowed ground as she worked the
soil his father would have titled had
he not gone away out of the peaceful
ness of the Marine valley into the iron
hail of the Aisne and on into the here
after
The boy, who was now man, work
ed hard, yes, too hard. With his hair
less hands and his boys strength he
fought almost alone the unequal fight
against want with what little help his
frail mother could give.
One of the 20 or 80 local societies
in France, handicapped by lack OF
funds because deluged by calls for
help, tried to relieve the family by tax
ing away the children. But to the tor
ture twisted brain of the woman tbis
seemed like losing all she had.
And then when everything seemed
lost and despair came they heard tho
news: mo, it could not be true
They would help them with food and
clothing? They would till the soil7
Mend the barns and stay near by to
see that things went well?" Yes, and
the children could stay, said the Red
Cross, as they had said to hundreds
of others.
That was two years ago. Today this
family is self supporting and has some
to spare for the more needy ones. who
still are being helped. Little Jean is
taller He looks well fed-and he Is
well fed. The baby is so rolly poly
that the dimples have come again.
They are in good spirits-on their feet
once more.
And Marcel. He has finished the
course that the Red Cross gave him
In an agricultural school. 1t Is he who
has been running the farm so well. Hs
did 1t all At least they let him think
so, for heaven knows he has seen the
bottom of the bitter cup. And know
that the Red Cross will want me to
say he did it, for that is the way they
work-quietly, earnestly, efficiently.
without stint, without waste. without
boast

Speaking of money" said my sea-
faring friend of the Maine coast, I'VE
used to have an old man here named
Goodfield. When he was young he
used to sing In the church choir-that
didn't cost nothin'-and married one
of the Endorses, but didn't have only
one child, and 1t died, and time he got
to be about sixty-eight years old he'd
saved I'D and was hirin' out his mon
ey at about as high p cent as any
body. Made 1t all just tradin' and
bein' careful what he spent. Care
fulY He wouldn't buy hisself pair
of britches but once in eight years,
and when his old sister that lived with
'em says one day she was bound to
see what the inside the pitcher show
theater looked like just once before
she died, why, old Goodfield and his
wife says that was the last straw, and
they fixed up and had her hauled off
TO live on the county. His wife was
lust the same as him, TOO.
swell, along about the middle o.
the hard winter, three years ago,
Goodfield took sick, and his wife told
the neighbors they both thought 1t
was a pretty good thing, comm on
him in the cold weather that way, be-
cause fuel was so high and a person
in bed don't need to use any. They
wouldn't hear of calm in the doctor,
and for two or thtee weeks the neigh
bors and old friends, most of 'em, was
sure he was goin' to die, but then
he begun to look so well there didn't
hardly seem to be much hope.
Old GoodfieId Walks In.
''He got to goin' out and shamblin'
around again, and for awhile there
wasn't nobody noticed anything much
different. l reckon I was the first,
and 1t come about mighty queer. 1t
was like this: l was workin' In my
shack one night pretty late, tryin' to
spell out what was the matter with a
carburetor I'd brought up from my
boat, when there come tap on the
door, and old Goodfield walks In.
was kind o. surprised to see him, but
didn't say nothin' 'cept Good evenin','
and all of a sudden he says, DO you
know how much money I'm WORTH

"They Are Our Boys; Get
Ready, Everyone, for Rush!"

BY, smiling women might be tired, nor
were they tired then, even though all
day long they had been serving train
after train of French and English
troops. literally thousands of them.
Yet what did that matter? For these
boys that came at the end of a long
day-these boys are "ours."
If your boy is in France you may be
sure he has song of praise for the
fine women at work In the railway
canteens of our own Red Cross, for at
every important railway junction there
is one of our Red Cross canteens and
at each canteen there are Is women
real, true American women.

Inside the building there were more
women, all spick and span in white,
with faces beamlng. handing out good
home cooked" food over spotless tiled
counters. Some of the boys fairly ran
for the food; others went into the long
batteries of baths, throwing out their
vermin ridden clothes to be sterilized
while they scrubbed their bodies back
to a healthy glow.
What luxury it all was-food, tables,
chairs, things to read, games to play,
paper for writing, a barber shop, a
movie theater and good, clean beds
No one ever thought that these hap

The long train of freight cars whined
and grumbled as it strove to stop. In
the doorway of a great low building a
white capped and gowned woman re-
leased a sunny smile and, turning so
her voice carried into the building,
called out, "They are ours; get ready
for rush."
Just how she could tell they were
"ours" would be hard to explain. for
at the moment she spoke hundreds of
the dirtiest, grizzliest men woman
ever saw came fairly tambling out of
the freight cars. A moment more she
was welcoming this muddy rabble with
laugh and cheering words.

President and Wife,
'Lost in Paris,'' - Are
Guided by Can,ins

PARIS, Dec. "a "LIntransig6ant,'
describing President Wilson's shopping
tour with Mrs. Wilson, says that the
couple while strolling through the
crowded shopping centre yesterday lost
their way and asked two little boys
where they were. The lads gave the
needed information, and then one of
them, doffing his cap, astonished the
President by asking: might one shake
hands with Monsieur lie President ?"
The President shook hands with both
boys heartily and wished them merry
Christmas before proceeding on his
way.
After calling upon Premier Clemen-
ceau the President had his first expert
ence with Partisan taxi drivers. He
went downtown to continue his shop
ping, intending to walk home, but rain
set in and he was obliged to call a cab
or taxi which in the present crowded
condition of the capital is compl-
Gated and often an exasperating ex-
perience, cabmen and taxi drivers gen
orally being masters of the situation.
President Wilson, however, though un
recognized, got through the ordeal
without difficulty.
