AS far back as the first winter OF
the war, the Red Cross sent to Serbia
q sanitary commission that effective
iy checked the scourge of typhus, but
after the United States entered the
conflict, the Red Cross was able, in
August, 1917, to send a full commits
sion that carried on extensive RELIEF
operations among the suffering ref
ugees of the tortured nation. Hospi-
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
condition into which these helpless VIC
tins of the war had fallen Is well
portrayed by this photograph OF
little Serbian girl wearing the rags
and expression of hopeless dlsmay,
that were all she possessed when the
Red Cross came.

PREMIER CLEMENCEAU
WILL WRITE A BOOK

PARIS April % (by Associated
Press) Premier Clemenceau,too, will
write a book after the peace confer
ence is over
"As soon as the peace problems
have, been solved" he said recently,
land l have finished my task, l shall
take a rest that, after fifty years OF
politics, think l have we'll earned.
And, in my retirement, l shall write
a book which perhaps no one will
read but which 1, at all events, shall
be glad to have written"
1t has been stated by those close
to Premier Clemenceau that it was
his earnest desire to finish his pres
ent task and retire. His vitality has
been remarked upon recently as being
extraordinary and the virility and
vigor of former days has been evident.
Americans who have called upon
the French premier following his re-
turn to health say that he is full of
humor and enjoys jovial existence.

poor male, more daring than the
others, timidly lifted his lonely voice.
The knight then turned to the ladies,
who sat at a table apart. and "bade

Probably no Christmas would seem
complete without the well-known and
popular hymn, "Hark the Herald

The word carol, which originally
meant dance, is thought to have
come into our language either from
the Norman French carole or from the
Celtic carol.

some ancient Christmas carols, with
the tunes to which they were former
