LIFE IN HOSPITAL
BACK OF BATTLE
WASHINGTON-', July SO. An In
cident In the work of tied C'ro-ia
nurses called to a new hospital near
the front Is told In a communication
from Miss. Julia Stimson, chief nurse
of the American Red Cross In France.
The story follows:
Summoned in an emergency to
take care of American soldiers in a
hospital near the front, 20 Red Cross
nurses were packed In a large motor
omnibus with an army nurse who
was going up with her special team.
When the town was reached about
ten o'clock it was in such a state of
darkness it was impossible to read
the signs in the streets and difficult
to keep In the roud. Soon two Amer
ican military police stopped the truck
and guided it to Red Cross head
quarters where a captain directed us
thru the black streets, which wore by
this time full of heavily laden artil
lery trucks carrying American
troops. "V
Air Ituid KlKiinllixl
"By means of occasional flashes
from a hand torch It was possible to
follow the guide to the Ecole proffes-
sionale, which had just that day he-
come an American hospital. When
we drove Into a courtyard the siren
warning of the air raid, and guns
were 'booming. The nurses hurried
in across a cloister-like corridor into
a pitch-black room because ft was
explained that it was unsafe for them
to stay out In the open. They could
not see the faces of the people who
were speaking and not even a cig
arette light was allowed.
"For a few minutes talk was rapid
while the situation was explained.
There were about two hundred Amer
ican patients In the biUlding, also a
few French soldiers left from the
preceding organizations, for this
building hud been a French hospital
for some time. The severe raids of
the day before had completely de
moralized the civilian employes who
had left. Gas, electricity and water
mains had all been put out of busi
ness and operations had been carried
on the night before by the light of
hand electric torches. A large num
ber of patients, after 2 4. hours., were
still on stretchers'. The six 'Amer
ican nurses who had been collected
from other places in the town had
been working day and night, but they
were still game, as were the Ameri
can officers who were in charge.
All Volunteer
"It was stated that at least eight
of the new nurses would be needed
that night and volunteers were asked
for. Every one of the 20 volun
teered. The first eight women who
could be touched In the darkness,
much as children pick leaders In a
game, were put over on one side,
while the rest were conducted to an
empty ward which conlulned abso
lutely nothing but bed frames with
metal slats and springs. The eight
night nurses, discarding their hats
and coats, were taken to pitch-black
wards full of wounded men. As" the
truck with all their bags had not yet
appeared, they had tqjjoto work In
their blue serge dresses. When the
chief nurse saw them the next morn
ing, with their hair dishevelled, with
their faces and dresses covered with
dust from their trip, with towels
pinned across the front of their cloth
dresses, she could not help thinking
that some of the illustrators of mod
ern magazines might change their
opinions of wur nurses If they could
see this group. As the other truck
hod arrived, the day group of nurses
was able to appear In fresh grey uni

LOSS OP MORALE
PARIS, July 20. The cross exam
ination of M. Malvy, former minister
of the interior, who is on trial before
the senate, sitting as n high court of
justice on a charge of treason, was
continued today.
M. Jlalvy defended himself as hnv-
Ing always acted In accord with each
ministry of which he was a member.
He creater a sensation by quoting
from a letter dater .May 5, 191
from General Nlvellc expressing his
gratitude and that of the army for
M. Malvy's work.
M. Malvy said the morale of the
army was excellent before the April
1917 offensive, but that It was low
ered sharply afterward owing to the
results of the offensivtrand disap
pointed hopes. The mutinies, he
added, were due to defective canton
ments and tho suspension of leaves
and also to the Russian revolution
and stories of the new Russian army
discipline and the soldiers electing
their own officer. .

How The Bavonet
Lost a Great Battle
WONCTS, first made nt Bayonne, France,
whence tlicy ict their nume, to begin, were
clmor.t js ilaniicroua to the urmy with them as
to ita ioc.
Fashioned with a solid butt, to be jammed into
the muzzle, it rendered a gun useless for tiring.
The butt was soon changed to a socket, but not
before the new f.infiled bayonet brought the F.nglish
army to grief at Killiekrankie.
The English noldicr found the bayonet a poor fit,
hard to get into his gun; und when he got it in, hard
to get out. When he had t; bayonet, he couldn't
bayonet; when he had to uhoot, he couldn't shoot.
The b.ror.ct experiment gave the Scots the battle.
