MISS OLIVE SEWELL WAS AT
WARSAW DURING SIEGE
BY RUSSIANS -
WAS A RED CROSS NURSE
LADY WILL BE GUEST AT ],
I'll. LAW HOME DURING
HOLIDAYS

Miss Olive Sewell, former Sauk
Centre girl who served through the
war period in Europe as a Red Cross
nurse, and who was present in the
city of Warsaw, Poland, during the
recent siege Of that city by the Rus
sia forces, is due to arrive in Sauk
Centre next week for the holiday
season at the j. H. Law home.
Miss Sewell is at present aiding
in the conducting of children's clin-
les at Butte, Mont, and has been
engaged in national Red Cross work
ever since her return to the United
States several months ago.
In an interview given out recently
to. the Butte press, Miss Sewell
went into detail to explain the con-
ditions in Poland at the time of the
Russian war period. She tells Of the
want among the children of Poland
their starved condition and the ut
ter lack of clothing.
The old o. D. knitted Red Cross
sweater, so common among the sol
diers of. the American army during
the late war, has become an import
ant factor in the. clothing of the hit
! tie Polish children. These sweaters
the Red Cross post at which Miss
| SewelE was assigned, gave out by the
hundreds, and in many instances
they composed the child's whole
wardrobe. "The sweater will
stretch, said the nurse, "and they
did very. well as protective garment
although they are safe harbor fol
cooties."
Speaking of the. military condi-
tions in Poland, Miss Sewell said:
"When General Weygand of the
French army was sent to Poland to
stop the Bolshevik inroads the NOR
ale of the Polish army had disap-
peared. They laughed at his at
tempts to check the advances OF the
Russians. Two sets of guards were
always sent out. After the regular
guard had been stationed another
guard was sent out to watch them
It was dangerous to go out after
night because these guards always
went to sleep leaning up against a
tree. They would leave their rifles
with bayonets sticking out, and 1t
was impossible to move far after
without running into one Of them.
While in Lithuania, Miss Sewell
met the remnant Of the famous
"Battalian Of Death" "These ladies
were refined, charming and a large
number were well educated" she
said.
The uniform of the Polish army
was most anything the soldier could
find. They took well to Yankee
clothes and one would find a Pol
ish soldier with a German helmet,
Yankee blouse, Austrian trousers
and French wrapped leggings, she
said.
During her period of foreign SER
vice, Miss Sewell served in France
Lithuania, Galacia and Warsaw. !.

 The child who said this got things as straight as the man who asked why great rivers flow past big cities Like the rivers the mouth came first.
 But the child was right about the hole. That is the essence of a mouth; and however far one may go in the scale of animal life a hole of some sort is to be found until at last one comes to the mi croscopic single-celled amoeba, who can use any part of it's surface for mouth, and simply wraps itself around the morsel that it devours.

SUSANNA.

SUSANNA.
Susanna is another Of the holy
names" with which the Scriptures
abound. Though it has been con-
tracted rather generally TO Susan,
thu proper form, and the one which
possesses an interesting history, Is
Susanna. II signifies lilly" and comes
from the ancient Hebrew name
Schuschannah, which, in sound,
more nearly resembles the French
Suzanne.
The story OF Susanna, related in
the additional chapters of the Book
of Daniel, and repudiated by St
Jerome, has been COMMUNICATED
in ballad, tapestry. and painting.
The name also belonged To one OF
the holy women of the sepulchre and
II was in the church calendar for
two virgin martyrs who suffered
death in the times of persecution.
The most famous Susanna of his
tory was the lilly of Tifiis,' the
Queen Susanna who was put to
death by the Mahometans for her
religious faith. All the romance and
picturesque romance OF the early
ages centers in her history.
The English call this name Susan
nah and by a curious coincidence al
most without equal in etymOlogy, the
French, German. Swiss and Bavar-
ians agree upon Susanna as a favor

III W n
The former kaiser has proved
that he is adept at tailoring
When William was little, he used to
delight
In playing with scissors and tape.
A marvellous skill, had the infantile
Bill.
In fitting his pants TO his shape
And toll with his needle and
thread
But his folks couldn't see what a
tailor he'd be,
So they made him a kaiser in
stead.
A Kaiser they made him, and gave
him a crown,
And had him rehearse for his
part,
But he sat on his throne and pulled
bone after bone.
For he still was a tailor at heart
His vanity kept him inventing new
suits,
He planned every day a fresh
style;
1t must be confessed he was snap
PLY dressed,
But his Kingdom went blooey
the while.
And now that he's nothing what
ever TO do.
AS a guest of the tolerant Dutch.
His time he devotes 20 the building
OF coats
And trousers aPd waistcoats and
such.
He can't make a mess Of a realm

And so ha is calmly content.
Through the flight OF the years, with
