LONG IN HOLY CITY
American Resident of Jerusalem
for Many years.
(M. M. VVhelan first to Welcome Brit
ish Troops When They Entered
Was Representative Thero
of he Bible Society.
Although It (s n year slucc Ailenby's
.victorious army entered Jerusalem,
and the greatest Christian shrine In
the world was wrested forever from
the clutches of the Infidel Turk, one of
fhe most strlklpc eptsodcs'of all those
that marked tjiat entry lias only re
cently become known.
To Americans this oplsode Is of
especial Interest, since It came as the
climax of perhaps the most picturesque
of all the many services that have
een rendered by the allied nntlons.
.find to humanity generally, by Individ
,unl Americans, from Gerard nnd Urand
Whltlock down, since the beginning of
jhe war.
For nearly three years, or from
early In 1015 until the deliverance of
Jerusalem In December, 1017, one of
the oldest anil most famous of UrltMi
prganlza'iiuis remained In unblissful
gnornuee as to what had become of
Us "depot" In the Holy City. ThN -organization
Is the BrltMi and Foreign
Bible society, which like its great sls
Jer organization In the I'ulted States,
"exists for the purpose of distributing
tlie Good Boot: among Christians In
every part of the world.
In February, 1915, or soon nfter
Turkey threw In her lot with the cen
tral powers, the Bible society's depot
n Jerusalem, which contnlned many
thousands of volumes, had to be aban
doned hastily. The workers there
were brought to Egypt on an American
warship. From that day until quite re
cently nothing whatever was known re
garding the fato of the depot or Its
contents. It was assumed that both
jiad probably been destroyed by the
-Turks. Hut then came a letter from
.the society's secretary at Port Said in
closing one from the commander of
(he London Scottish, the first British
regiment to enter the Holy City. In
this officer's letter the striking story
was told of how a venerable American
resident of Jerusalem, by name 51. M.
Wholnn, came lorward spontaneously
after the abandonment of the Blblo
society's depot, took up his residence
therein and courageously "carriel on"
AS Its custodian.
"It may interest you to know," this
officer wrote, "that as I entered Jeru
salem with the first troops, I was met
by a quaint old American, named Whc
lun, seventy years of age, who told me
lie represented the Bible society, and
presented mo with a beautiful copy of
the Scriptures."
Beyond the fact that M. M. Whelan
Is a naturalized Irish citizen of the
United Stntes, and that he had been
living In Jerusalem for several years
before the war, little Is known by the
Hlble society at present regarding tlio
picturesque character to whom It owes
to great a debt of gratitude. It la not
oven known from what part of the
United States he comes. The society
has, however, received n photograph
.of Its venerable American benefactor,
which shows him to be a truly patri
archal type.

New Orleans French.
Negro troops from Louisiana have
a linguistic advantage over other
American soldiers. Many of them,
through living In sections where
French still Is spoken, are more or
less familiar with the language of this
land when thoy get here. Hut they
hnve their dll'lcultles. nevertheless.
"It's dls way," exclaimed one. "Ah

The benefits of our food-saving
campaign that was n vital factor In

appreciation of food that will prevent
It ever being wasted again by those
that huve come to understand the re

food occupies In our new, world-wide
human relations.
