Knlvution Army Doughgfrl In France. Written for the Inited Press.) WITH THE AMKKICAN KOYf? AT THB FHONT, July 30. (By Mall.) This Is hardly a "doughboy" or doughglrl" story, though we all do figure In It a little bit. It's a story about the little tots belonging to French families who live In th? ruined villa pes near the firing lines. t A lot of these French families have lived under bombardment nince the beginning of the war, just behind the trenches. The French have not evac uated these folks, because they beg ged to be allowed their horn in They have nothing else. So the Americana cannot send them off very well, though It Is no place for civilians. The most pathetic part of It Is the flock of little children belonging to these poor families- They play around In the dirt, and are always unclean and have lice on them. They cannot remember when there wasn't War, and most of them never have leen m school. It is awful for them. Some lIHful Work Some f the hoys 1ft the village we were In were pitying them und said they wanted to do something to help the dirty little youngsters out.
