Florence Woods, one of the most arsto- cratic and finest of Annston's young women, is acting as receiving hostess. Miss Buckholtz of Dalton, Ga, is the efficient business manager and Mrs. Oc- borne H. Parker, a handsome, popular matron of Anniston, has been appointed
 as Anniston hostess to cooperate with the hostess stationed at Camp Mcclellan. Many khaki-clad- guest will revel in
 the homelike comforts of the hostess
 house. The wounded men are being sent from France to Camp Mcclellan, their weakened condition making us realize as
 nothing else has done, the tragedy
 brought to the flower of our nation
 through the grim effects of war. How
 the patriotic women of Anniston and all nearby towns will delight in seizing this opportunity to offer at the hostess house entertainment and diversion for these war-weary heroes, to show them that
 their patriotism in offering their lives for our liberty is appreciated.
 Reunions with mothers, wives and sweethearts are already being planned by the returned soldiers. There Will be, perchance, joyful reunions, intermingleG with sadness, for many of the boys have come back minus arms and limbs groping with the depressing necessity of
 adjusting themselves to a new, strange
 life.
 Many lonely, Respondent convalescent lad will be comforted and inspired to loftier ideals through the influence of the coterie of noble Young Women S Christian association workers, who have their interest at heart. It is splendid, | worthwhile mission, one that will appeal to every motherly heart. There will be hundreds of little human interest stories enacted at the hostess house.
 The women of north Alabama will re- , joice to have this longed for retreat where they may meet and greet the
 soldier boys. The need of diversion and
 the extension of our famous southern hos
 pitality is greater now than ever be-
 fore. Thirty more wounded soldiers from
 France arrived at camp during the past
 week. To everything concerning the vel
 fare of Camp Mcclellan, the women of
 the surrounding towns have given hearty
 cooperation. The staff of the Young
 Women's Christian association will greet
 them with open arms as they visit the

DEVASTATION IN
 ITALY DEPRESSING
The Rec0nquered Provinces
 Along Piave Found in AL most Complete Ruins
By Associated Press


 Rome, Headquarters of the Italian Army, December 1S.--The distressing eff fects of the war and of Austrian occu- patton still are evident in the recon quered Italian provinces north and east of the Piave. The country in the vim cinity of Oderzo, a small village about six miles from the lower course of tho Piave, is a scene of utmost desolation. It was here that the Duke of Aosta' S army advanced so swiftly and deeply into the Austrian lines as to threaten the communications of the Austrian army occupying Conegliano, thus forcing ths Austrians to retreat So intense was the bombardment that very little is left standing in the country all around Oderzo. Many of the houses now are merely heaps of debris.
 The village of Oderzo itself was not so seriously damaged as were the outlying houses, as the Italian artillerymen tried to spare it, but it bears unmistakable signs of Austrian occupation. The will lagers declare that the Austrians took away not only their church bells, but their clothes and even the panes of glass from the windows. the doors, kitchen utensils and in fact literally everything that could be removed. The parish priest saved some of his household utensils and several barrels of wine by hiding them in barn behind heap of coffins. owing to the fact that the population was greatly weakened by lack of food, the influenza claimed high percentage of victims. Tn Odorzo, 200 small children were buried in one year of Austrian, oc- cupatiop out of a population of 24O0. The condition of the people still is desperate, as about half of them are ill with influ- enza, while clothing and food are almost unobtanable.
 When the Associated Press correspon- dent visited Oderzo recently there were 50 patients in the civil hospital lying or straw on the floor, without blankets, while the building had neither windows nor doors. The single physician who, with the aid of few nuns was attend ing them, had no drugs and his only surgical instrument was his pocket knife.
 This situation is said to prevail in nearly all the reconquered Italian dis tricts. The people, it is declared. have virtually nothing and need everything.

ministrations to the Camp Mcclellan members of our great American army.
 Another event of importance occurring at Camp Mcclellan during the past weeS was the opening on Thursday evening of the new Red Cross convalescent home.
 The home adjoins the base hospital and has been equipped with every con- venience for the convalescents. A piano all the latest music, victrolas, literature, and games will help while away many weary hour for hundreds of soldiers who wounds.
 Mrs. Thomas, the official Red Cross hostess, is constantly planning interest ing diversions for the soldiers. On Thursday evening Mrs. Thomas and committee of convalescents arranged an excellent programme and served refresh ments to the guests who called. A large number of visitors from Birmingham, Gadsden and Anniston, who are interested in the new home, attended the open ing exercises on Thursday evening.
 Heretofore the men from the north have been predominant at Camp McClei- lan but as demobilization progresses, soldiers from Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia are being sent in to be dis charged near their homes. Many joy full reunions among college mates have occurred at camp during the past few  weeks and as the southern boys arrive, relatives are coming from the adjoin- ing states to bid them welcome.

ANNISTON'S Y. w. C. A. HOSTESS HOUSE
 OPENS WITH INFORMAL RECEPTION
By PATRIOTIC PATRICIA

Anniston, January 2.-(Special.) )-The r. w c. A. hostess house opened its doors at Camp Mcclellan to the public with an informal reception on Monday after noon and Monday evening.
 Both soldiers and civilians are rejoic- ing over the prospects of delights to be enjoyed in this cheery. homelike retreat, one of the most attractive hostess houses estab blished by the National Young Wom- ans Christian association. The location. a high, sloping knoll, is ideal, one of the most picturesque spots on the canton ment Exclamatons of delight were heard from every guest as they reached the spacious porches and viewed from there the long chains of mountain peaks with the tented city nestling at the foot of the peaks. The screened verandas, which extend around the front and sides of the house, are filled with comfortable rockers.
 The large living room is furnished in wicker. Blue and yellow draperies on the windows, blue rugs, yellow lamp shades and glowing fire in the large, open fireplace add color and cheer to the room. The long tables are filled with magazines, books, paper, pencils, pens and ink. large cafeteria containing blue enamel tables and chairs, adjons the reception room. The kitchen is up- to-date in every respect, and many home made connections will there be prepared for the enjoyment of the soldier boys
 The blue and yellow color scheme is effectively carried out in the apartments up stairs, with the ivory and wicker furniture upholstered in blue and yellow Several dainty bedrooms to be used by guests who come to visit soldier loved ones, three bath rooms, an apartment for the hostess and an office for the secretary are among the conveniences provided up stairs.
 Much of the credit for the complete success of the artistic structure belongs to Miss Ruth Hereford Huff, the lovely general secretary of the local Y. W. C. A., who from start to finish has given the building her personal supervision Miss Huff is unusually pretty and at tractive very popular in the social world and greatly beloved by all of the Y. w. c. A. girls Her magnetic personality will greatly add to the cheer of the men in uniform during her visits to the hos tess house.
 Mrs Erin Weller, a former Annistonian, who lis unusually cultured and motherly will make an ideal official hostess. Miss

RUSSELLWLLEB BOYS WRITE ABOUT FIGHT
Men of S1st Division Say They Went Over Top Just
 Before Armistice

Several of the Russellville boys who are in the Eighty-first division in France have made references in recent letters to their being in action, which show that some of the combat units of this well known division got into the real fight before the armistice was signed.
 Harold Sargent Company M S22d in fantry, Eighty-first division, wrote to his sister on November 26 stating that they had a time getting up to the. line before the war was over, but that ne had been over the top twice and drove the enemy back more than four miles.
 Mrs. A. c. Moody had a letter from her brother NJ. c. Sandlin, S24th infan- try, Eighty-first division, dated Soires December 6, in which he says: I'm well and as happy as could be expected under the circumstances. I had the oppor- tunity to go to the front twice, once on the Alsace front in the Vosges noun tains, next on the Mouse front, between Metz and Nerdun.
 we stayed on the first named iron. three weeks; very quiet, and were shelled a few night. We went on the Verdun front November G. My regiment went over the top on the 9th. Yes, I shall al- ways remember your birthday, Novem- Der g, 191S I was under shell fire all day and all night. I don't think your image left my mind all day. Surely Providence was with us.

An awful bombardmen; began at a. m on the 11th. We were not allowed to strike match. At Il o'clock everything became as still as death. Bonfires were built. The whole battalion assembled for dinner. All dur ing the night both the Germans and our allies celebrated with rockets We were glad at heart, but too tired. as we had had only two hours sleep in 50. It is all over now and I am glad I came. It seems I've done very little, but I've tried to do my duty"
