The War Work Council Of the

plans to send an Industrial commission
Of women to England. France and Italy
In April to meet prominent labor lead
ers of those countries with a view to
promoting world fellowship among wo-
men.
The commission will be made ND of
Mrs. Raymond Robbins, representing

and Miss Mary ellison, an authority on
employment management.
Miss Florence Simms says In re-
gard to the commission: "The war
has forced upon us the bearing
Of International relationships in all
things, and our touch with women In
other countries has made us include in
our international thinking the indus
trial life of women. The war has
wrought so many changes in this that

The Methodist Centenary Drive.
Co. A, 7th Engs. A. E. F.

/
The Methodist Centenary Drive.
Louisiana Methodists are &C.
tive in making ready for the
Centenary Drive for S35, 600. 600
to be given by the Methodists in
the South within the next five
years. Rev. j. O. Bennett, pas
tor of the Methodist churches at
Colfax and Montgomery, has his
congregations organized with
visitors, a campaign director,
minute men and solicitors. He
is using literature extensively.
and is confident that when the
campaign drive is made all
Southern Methodists on this work
will do their part.
The announcement has been
published generally that the
Southern Methodist drive for
$35, 600, coo has been postponed
from early in April until the
middle of May. This action was
taken by the managers of the
Missionary Centennial at Nash
vile, Tenn, in order to give the
workers more time to .publish to
the Methodists the real meaning
of the Centenary, and at the
same time to prevent the drive
from interfering with the Fifth
Liberty Loan.
When the figures are cited that
there are nearly s, 600. 600 Metho-
dists in the United States alone,
people forget that the Methodist
denomination is less than 200
years old, and that it has had a
constructive missionary policy
only 100 years. 1t was on April
5, 1919, that the first missionary
society of the Methodist church
was organized. Since that date,
however, the denomination has
occupied every continent with its
missionaries and is today launch
ing plans that will send more
missionaries in the home and
foreign field than have ever been
sent out by any denomination in
the history of the world. This
movement is called the Mis-
sionary Centennial.
In the North and South to-
gether there will be raised dur
ing the next five years $115, 600. !
600, all of which will be spent in
various forms of missionary
work. In order to reach this
goal an extensive campaign has
been organized and is now being
carried out. Headquarters are
being maintained in Nashville,
Tenn, and state headquarters
are being maintained in every
state. Rev. N. E. Joyner, of
New Orleans, has charge of the
work in Louisiana. Already
hundreds of thousands have sign
ed pledges to pray daily for the
success of the great campaign,
and when the figures are totalled
it is thought that nearly 1,OOO,-
900, 600 Methodists will be pledg-
ed to give to the church and
charity tithe of their income.
Special sermons have been
heard in every Methodist church
in the United States, and in Lou
isiana house-to-house visits have
been made. including every fam
lily that belongs to the Methodist
denomination. The leaders are
confident that when the drive is
made in May. that not only the
$35. 600, 600 will be secured in

in day time. ! sure cussed the
day / was sent to the Engineers,
and the guy who told me they
did nothing but scientific work,
but since then + have become
pretty proud of my outfit.
We went back from st Mihiel
to Bourg. where we worked six
days building some barracks,
then hiked out again for the
Argonne. We camped near
Malancourt for six days when
the front was just past Mont
faucon six miles away. We
worked a few days on the road
there, then moved up to near
Nantillos the night of Oct. 13,
and the next morning we spread
out in a skirmish line and went
toward Germany again. l be-
lieve the Squareheads threw
everything at US but their shoes,
and they needed them to run in.
We wentsover near the town of
Amel in the Argonne forest, and
when we came back Co. A had
about thirty prisoners and some
machine guns. and also some
of the boys were missing. This
was the sad part Of it. / can't
commence to describe the small
scenes saw, such as men being
blown to pieces, and how good |
felt when aSquarehead dropped.
They had machine guns in trees
and all kinds of places. but they
were all out luck when We located
them.
After we got back we had a
nights sleep and then for six
nights following went up and
strung beau coup" barbed wire
in front of the doughboys. We
finally got relieved and went
back a few miles for a four days
rest. Remember all of this time
we were living in pup tents, al
ways in range of Fritz's guns,
and every meal was 'corned will
lie" and hard tack.
Next we moved into camp near
a battery Of French 1855 near
Septsarges and commenced prac-
ticing on pontoon bridge build
ing. Our camp and a field hos
pital near there were bombed
several times, so life was sure
interesting.
The night of Nov. A we built
two bridges across the Mouse
river and the Canal De Este near
the town of Bruelles. Fritz was
on the opposite bank of the canal
and that was sure some warm
spot. They heaved big shells at
us and famed the breeze with
machine guns all night. We did
NOT lose very many men, but it
was a miracle. Our doughboys
crossed over and made a six kilo
advance and our Captain got a
D. S. C. for the bridge. We
stayed with the bridge until Nov.
10. then started up the line
again. While at the bridge we
were bombed several times.
The afternoon of the tenth we
arrived at Brandeville. and were
under orders to move up in sup
port of the infantry when the
news came of the approaching
armistice. At first we would
not believe it, but when eleven
o'clock the morning of the elev-
enth came and the guns ceased
we were sure tickled. We had
