 One of the most striking episodes reported in the national Good Will delegates race for votes also comes from Springfield, Mass.
 A picture of the 20th Century Linn tied, painted by a Boston and Albany railroad man, was presented to Miss Anna Mae Jackson, telephone opera tor of the Boston and Albany, in the interest of her candidacy,

 CHILDREN
 After the armistice, workers of the Amercian Committee for Devastated France went over the shell-torn area and found many pathetic little wrecks Of children in caves and holes, cellars and abandoned dugouts.
 Seemingly these children could re- member nothing of the brightness and happiness of the pre-war period.
 Well, how could they, after four years or war, when the things most indelibly impressed upon their minds were the shriek of shell and shrapneI. the menacing drone of Hun bombing planes, the awful carnage of battle, | the loss of daddy and brother, who went away to fight the enemy and never came back?
 The experiences through which tbev passed were too narrowing even for adults, to say nothing of little chil- dren.
 Poor little kiddies!

 Let us hope that the day will come and come soon, when the horrors of war will be erased from their memor- les as completely as 1t is possible to wipe them out. This is one of the aims of the Amer 1can Committee for Devastated France ana the medium through which it is l being accomplished in the kindergar- ten.
 God bless the Kindergarten if it | snail bring back childhood and its i joys to these little tnnocents!
 @ @Aho God bless the American Com nlttee for its efforts in behalf. not | only of children, but of all the peo- pie Of the devastated region.
 Here in America, try as we may. we nle cannot ga T. @ appreciste what the peo- years or the war. But the members or the American Committee know. ana that is why they are trying to nelp the sufferers to become establish ca once more in their home; that is why they are trying to make the lit-l lie children forget the terrible night mare or war and cause them to smile and laugh and shout and romp elee- | :ully as normal children cannot heIn 1oing.
 That is why the people of Bridge port ana vicinity are conducting an election to determine who of ten or a dozen candidates shall have the 1onor of representing them in the food Will delegation that will sail iSAl SuiIIner to carry to the devaStat-i ed regions the message of Good Will backed with gifts of gold with which % level the shell-torn fields and make hem fertile again and rebuild the homes ripped asunder by German shells.
 True, neither these good American friends nor the gifts they will bear ;an bring back daddy or brother- hose good and true and loyal ones who shouldered their guns and then away to defend their homes md hur1 back the hated invaders put as far as good will and friendship Ind money will go in re-establishing 1omes and assuaging grief, that far will the American Committee go.
 That is what the Good Will delega- ion means. That is what it means when you give ten cents to vote for ,our favorite in the Good Win cleo ion.
 The more votes you buy, the better will be the chance of your favorite being elected to accompany the Good Will delegation. But it means much more than that-it means that you will have a part in helping to make d ose French kiddies glad again by aking them out of the cellars, caves Ind abandoned dugouts and putting hem in homes where they can have he comforts and experience and the happiness that is the God-given right : If every child.
