The inhabitants OF the village were

H. II. Hulscher, field representative Of
the Southern division Of the American
committee for devastated France, was
in Montgomery last week, working
with the local committee and aiding In

one OF the most popular girls of Mont

important thing perhaps, The spirit
among the women-the desire to serve

derfuL Many OF these women have
sons who have recently returned Ia

their own lips OF the ruin which has
been wrought In France and of the
need for the kind OF work that the
American committee for devastated
France Is doing, They are, therefore,
more than anxious TO do all they can

our new quarters, there will will be
no need for apologies. We will be in
position then to deliver your work
properly done, as it should be deliv-
cred, right now"
Yours very truly
