I had some unforgettable ex-

across and. finding It, was. at

later felt the draught again,
and again Lemmone found the
window open. Eventually we
discovered two little boys COVER.

the room.
We told them they were very
naughty boys to open the win
dow. They told me they had
come five miles from a farm and
wanted me to let them go to the
concert. OF course took them
along with me, and afterward
I said to them, And now you
both owe me a guinea"
I'VE owe you much more than
that" they replied, and after

After all. though. It is given to
only a few to succeed as I have
succeeded. II I could begin all

French government itself has ex-
pended over 100000 francs in SIM
liar work in other areas.
Germany Unable to Pay.
The work already accomplished
by the French government and the
American Committee for Devastated
France is amazing in the face OF the
fact that this was one of the things
that should have been taken care OF
by the German government, accord
ing to the treaty of Versailles. The
reparation clause of the treaty spe-
officially made this restoration of the
old battlefields of France one of the
penalties that Germany was to pay
for losing the war. However, Ger
many has not paid and at the pres
ent time is not in condition to pay.
The economic proposition. therefore.
faces the world of making the peas
ants of France self-supporting on
the old battlefields or allowing them
to become pauperized and emigrate
to other sections.

to level their land is appalling on
account OF such accidents long after
war has ceased.
Orchards Destroyed.
Orchards were destroyed, no
cows or goats were available for a
supply OF milk. no railroads existed
for the transportation of food and a,
the beginning of the work OF the
American committee, it was often
necessary to transport milk for ba-
bies in automobiles from regions IA
to 48 hours distant.
Such conditions as these facing
the people of France on returning
to their homes caused the original
10 women to undertake the work Of
aiding the people of four cantons
again to become self-supporting, as
memorial from the people OF
America to the people of France.
1t must be thoroughly understood
that the American Committee for
Devastated France is not attempting
to scatter its work or care for more
that very small percentage of peo-
