SMOKELESS CHIMNEYS
LINE THE MEUSE
(By Associated Press.)

Liege, May 10.-Along the route
from devastated Louvnine to this des-
olate city tall smokeless chimneys
line the formerly prosperous valley
of the Meuse. In Idle coal mines,
huge plants which belched fire and
s!zzled with the gurgle Of the melt
ing lead and the boiling steel are
rot silent and abandoned There IS
no outward visible sign of devasta-
ton but superficial examination Of
the inside of the plants reveals the
fact that this district has been
stripped as thoroughly and more sys-
tematically than the line of battle
where the cannon roared for four
years.
The Cocksrill Manufacturing Com
pany employed 10000 workmen; at
the small arms factory "Fabrique Ma
tionale", $500 skilled workmen manu-
factured revolvers and rifles, the in
yention of Browning of Texas; the
Ougnee- Mariez plant manufactured

They are repairing the few dilapi-
dated automobiles, machines and loco

their deliberate retreat and in heir

years.
The managers of these plants know
where their machinery has been re-
moved. They have the names of the
firms in the various cities of Germany
which are now manufacturing with
these stolen machines the products
that in a few months they will at

markets. They are dissatisfied and
bitter in their comment because they
feel they have been neglected By ths

are being served with Red Cross
supplies from Mytilene; Oinousa is
served from Chios and Icaria from
Samos.
When the American Red Cross Of
ficers arrived at Mytilene with their
cargo of supplies scenes of the great

was escorted to a carriage, the
horses were unhitched and the car

the residence of the governor general
who commandeered private home
and placed it at the disposal of the
arrivals All living expenses were
paid by the Greek government.

NAVY CO.OPERATES
WITH RED CROSS
(By Associated Press.)

Athens, May 10. In its already ex'
tensive and growing work in the
Greek islands, the American Red
Cross has the cooperation OF the
United States navy. Six submarine
chasers have been placed at the dis
posal of the Red Cross for transport
ing personnel and supplies to the va
rious islands where refugees are con-
centrated
On the Island of Mytilene the con
ditions of the Greek refugees who
fled there from Asia Minor five wears
ago are become desperate. Red
Cross workers are regularly visiting
all the towns on the island, and
clothing has been made to about 25,-
900 of the $4,000 refugees.
At the outbreak of the war in 1914
the Greeks were driven out OF Asia
Minor There were about 100000
of them there before the war More
than 100000 escaped to the islands in
the Aegean. Thousands were mas
sacred. The others, driven ont of
their homes by the Turks and sent
inland, are now returning only to
find their homes either DESTROYED or
occupied by Turks who refuse to
move. Prior to the Allied occupation
armed bands of Turks roamcd the
country side plundering and murder
ing Greeks wherever found.
The refugees in the Aegean Islands
intend to return TO Asia Minor as
soon as conditions permit A. pres
ent the Greek government gives each
refugee six cents day
The American Red Cross is devot
ing much attention to the prevention
of further epidemics such as the ty-
phus scourge which took such a heavy
toll at Mytilene Efforts are being
made to relieve overcrowding and
consequent unsanitary conditions
which enable epidemics to gain head
way.
Food is scanty and costly on tfe is
lands and most of the refugees are
underfed, even in the large towns
where conditions are better than In
the outlying villages The clothing
situation is the worst, for after buy
ing food the purchase of clothes is out
of the question for the refugees
Nearly all Of these persons are in
rags. The hospitals are short of med

In Jacksonville and her suburbs it

attractive, and after all there Is
something worth while in making the
home attractive.
Some may believe that there Is no
chance to have flowers and trees and
will sacrifice one for the other. This
is not necessarily the case There are
varieties of flowers that will grow
near and under the trees, and near to
the steps and about the house many
things will grow. Beautiful hydran-
geas are now to be seen in many
places, and the only complaint can
be that there are not more OF them;
