Even now. a year after the armistice, there are overseas men. patients at Camp Lewis, not yet well enough to be dis charged. who sit before the great fire- place these autumn days, thankful that Tile Greatest Mother is still mindful of them.

Indeed the rest of the word would hardly know Siam without the white elephant, and a recent traveler In Siam describes the care with which these animals are maintained In Bangkok.
