As far back as the first winter OF
the war, the Red Cross sent to Serbia
q sanitary commission that effective
ly checked the scourge Of typhus. but
after the United States entered the
conflict, the Red Cross was able, in
August, 1917. to send q fuli commits
sion that carried on extensive relief
operations among the suffering ref
urees Of the tortured nation. Hospl-
tails were established, the refugees fed,
clothed and given medical attention,
the army supplied with much needed
dental treatment, farm machinery, and
seeds provided to help the Serbs re-
deem their land to productivity, and,
not least, measures undertaken for the
succor Of the children. The terrible

The lilac is perhaps, all things con-
sidered, the most splendid of flower

its fragrance. The tree belongs to
the olive family and Is closely allied
to the common prfvet. but 1t bears no
neshy fruit and is valueless except for
the splendor Of its blossoms.

TELLS HOW CHRISTMAS
CAME TO THE YANKS

In a letter written to his mother
on Christmas day, Pvt. Ray l.. Wa
terman, a former resident of this
city, now serving with the sixth u. S.
engineers I'm the American expedi-
tionary forces at Beaune, France,
tells how Christmas came to the
"Yanks" overseas.
About Z o'clock our tent was
called TO the Red Cross building for
our Christmas socks-each of us re-
ceived a pair and in them we found
one cigar, two o. ID. handkerchiefs,
two packages of cigarets. a box of
matches, about eight ounces of
candy. a handful of nuts and cur
rants. After all had received their
gifts the Red Cross building was
thrown open to the entire camp. The
cooks had prepared 5000 dough-
nuts, and we lined up like at mess
time and passed the doughnut coun-
ters, then came TO the other things
each one got little tin whistle and
some 'toot' we had. Holding out
our overseas caps we had them filed
with nuts, currants and figs, all
mixed up. OF course, we had to go
the second time for another dough-
nut, then most of us went to our
tents. Some one brought the word
that they were still giving out
doughnuts. so back we went for
more. but Of course. couldn't eat
any more then. although they went
good for breakfast.
AT 10 o'clock next day we went
over TO the base hospital 10 attend
the Christmas day services and holy
communion, and in the afternoon we
wrote letters, and it being Wednes-
day the chaplain came over and held
evening services. SO that ended
Christmas day. 1913, my second
Christmas in France"
