E VIEW VARMS
ONE S SYMPATHY FOR PLUCKY UTTLE FRANCE
With the British Armies In the
Field, May IT. (By mail) If Am
erica could know France today most
likely American young men would
flock to har aid by hundreds on
every trans-Atlaatlo boat. The pity
ot those scores ot villages behind the
lines entirely stripped of able men,
with many of the women In deep
mourning as they carry on the work
Of departing soldiers, would appeal
more strongly to the pure American
than miles of recruiting (rasters.
Hop Into a military auto and go
tor a tour behind the fighting lines,
over the ridges from which the wide
landscape unrolls Itself In Its spring
splendor. The ride will convince
you that the young men of the Unit
ed States have before them duty
that can't be shirked without dis
honor. The car drawa up at a railroad
barrier where stands an elderly sol
dier of France, disabled In the war
and now on light duty. He passes
the car and you roll Into the main
street. Here are women driving
farm wagons, women herding sheep,
women carrying burdens that would
cause a strike of the moving-men's
union back home. Children may be
seen through the cottage doors, as
suming the burdens of -housework.
Women and children, no men, except
the disabled. It la the war.
Beyond the village your car
mounts a ridge. Miles of field are
under cultivation. - Women are fol
lowing the ploy or lawklng down
the ridges with one arm swing as
they scatter seed from a bag. Women
pass by on the road, leading term
horses.
That is a santple and typical or
what la to be seen. The French are
stole but they , do need American
help to whale the Roche. Their dis
illusionment If America should fall
would be hard to picture. Thulr
faith la so great In America, the sis
ter republic iwhlvh honors LaFayetto.
This la the district ibehlnd the
lines. Up forward, where the wr
took to trenches after the Hoohe re
treat, there are scarcely any villages
left. Civilian Inhabitants are rare,
One scene of peace has been found
before a French city by the Germans.
The British expect to take the place
by the pressure of Indirect move
ments, thus sparing the town from
bombardment. If It Is destroyed,
then Tommy will have another score
to setUe with the Boche dynamiting
squad.
Before the town Is a flat field of
more than a mile. Underfoot are
patches of dandelions. It Is quiet
and peaceful aa a May day In Iowa.
Overhead an aeroplane drones Ilk
a lasy bee In Its patrol along the
sky. Suddenly a battery wakes up
at a vague spot and the shells make
dsrk spots against the haxa on the
German horlion. The TJoche bestirs
himself, evidently trying to find a
British gun. His gun thumns far
sway, there Is an Interval and then
the shuttle Is heard gradually grow-
Ing louder.
"Here cornea one." says s Tom
my. The shell drops a quarter of
a mile away. "Dud." says Tommy.
Boche throwa lots of duds."
