SUNSHINE into LIVES OF THE REFUGEES
Work Of DR. r. Roach Among Sick in SCISSORS Chateau
Thierry Region Was Typical Of Good Deeds
Done ALI Over France.

returning families have been plagued
with sickness, due to privation. ex-
posure, lack of proper food, and gen
eral insanitary conditions. The influ-
enza epidemic added new troubles to
burdens borne no one knows how.
WHAT DR.. ROACH FOUND.
DR.. J. f. Roach, who went to France
from st. Louis a few months ago, was
stationed for q while at Chateau
Thierry where he helped care for our
sick and wounded soldiers. When the
war ended and the hospital there was
closed. DR.. Roach looked about him
In the neighborbood, and found that
the returning civilians were having a
very hard time of it.
Il investigated conditions in the re
gion between Chateau Thierry and
Scissors" DR.. Roach told afterward,
and found them SO desperately bad
that I sent word to Red Gross head
quarters in Paris at once for supplies
Without a moments hesitation the
Red Cross sent out to me an ambu-
lance and motor truck, loaded with
beans, lentils, canned milk, rolled oats,
sugar. coffee, tea. boiullon cubes,
shoes, layettes for the babies, sweat
ers. capes. socks, underclothes, cots
and blankets. These were exactly the
things that the sick, cold and hungry
people needed. and with my assistants
!, set to work at once to distribute
them among the needy, and to get
ready to take care of the sick.
Il held two clinics every day, one
at Oulchy and one at Neuilly ST. Front,
where had my headquarters. Every
week my two nurses, my ambulance
driver and I took care Of from 400 to
coo people. We covered 80 towns in
our work, and we were busy constant
lily. Those wonderful nurses; l shall
never forget how faithfully they kept
at it. /,

QU|ETEST CHRISTMAS
COMING SINCE 1918
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-Chris5
mas 1919 will be the hast peaceful
Yuletide since 1913, according to a
survey of the situation today.
The bottom has fallen out of the
war market. Whereas last year
there were numerous armed conflicts
raging as an aftermath of the great
war, this Christmas finds most of
them fiickered out. The bolshevjk
front still exists, but they are ice
bound and there is little fighting, ac-
Cording to advices here.
AS for industrial warfare, it is al
so dwindling. There are no more
great strikes abroad, and in the Unit
ed States the only big one is the steel
strike, which apparently is not seri-
Cusly affecting production.
Reds" in the United States, it
was learned, plotted an outbreak of
terrors for Christmas, which was to
include sending bombs through the
mails. The government is believed
to have broken up this conspiracy
and so disorganized the "reds" they
will be incapable of interfering with |
peaceful citizens holiday pleasures.
In Russia the bolsheviki are con-
,ronted by Tudenitch in the north
vest, Denekin in the south and Kol-
'hak in Siberia. These are the on
y real war fronts left, according to
at the state department,
md they are largely inactive.
