Mothers of French Soldiers Flee
Life Abodes With Remaining
Few Treasures on Backs
By Mrs. Hazel Pedlar Faulkner
An army of French refugees was
pouring into the relief station main­
tained by the American Red Cross.
Carrying in their hands bundles of
varying sizes,—all their worldly pos­
sessions, old men and women, young
women and children, came through
the gates of the canteen where was
furnished the first bit of rest and
refreshment available for many hours.
The Boches had made travel neces­
sary for these dwellers in the oc­
cupied portions of France.
"May I help you any?” asked one
of the workers in the canteen of a
weary looking French woman.
"I can help myself,” tho woman re­
plied, “you see I know just what
to do when we are away from home
like thie. This is the third time I
have had to leave.”
‘‘CAN HELP MYSELF,”
BRAVE ANSWER
The third time she had had to
flee. Three times she had been ob­
liged to leave her home, or what
was left of it, and start out on an
unknown Journey. With her worldly
goods reduced to the size of a
napkin-bound bundle, this old wom­
an, mother of French soldiers, had
turned her -back on all she loved,
and gone out into the night, an
enemy at her heels and the uuknown
before her.
Do we realize what that means:
oh, women of the West? Can wa
visualize for a moment the tragedy
of it all?
Yet there are women in France
who have done that thing daily for
four years, and all without a word
of complaint, with never a sigh
or a tear.
Ours has been a happier part. We
have lived in plenty and peace. True,
we have given our sons and have
divided our food. But of the horrors
of war we have known none.
What will you do to relieve the
condition of those mothers of France?
Our government is pledged to help. It
has given its word to aid to the limit
of its capacity. It calls for the
assistance of every individual one
of our people in the work.
EVERY AMERICAN
MUST HELP
I The Fourth Liberty Loan is our
opportunity. You say you have sub-
The
scribed three times before?
women of Fiance have been driven
¡out of their homes three times, each
time more cruelly than before. Can
we hesitate to save them a repetition
of that suffering. Ours is the lesser
part, however much it may seem to
entail of sacrifice and deprivation.
An American marine, wounded
grievously, was visited in hospital by
a Congressman from his State. “What
shall I tell the folks back home?”
asked the Congressman.
The marine smiled. “Tell them
we may not all come back, but we
are all helping to win the war.”
Shall we be able to answer as hon­
estly, when the boys from over there
ask us the question?
Nothing is too hard for us here.
Nothing can be too hard in com-
parison with what has been 1 borne
for us already.
Let the Fourth Liberty Loan sub-
scription be our answer to the call
from over there.
You Can Stop These
Casualties Quickly
The Brutal, Bloody Hun will
be stopped when an overwhelm­
ing American Army lands in
France and crushes him—not be­
fore.
The Fourth Liberty Loan is
the next step in getting that army
across the Atlantic.

In Handers fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on rbw,
That mark our place, and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly,
Scarce heard amidst the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Handers fields. .

At its best, slab wood is poor fuel.

When it is finally set down at Its
destination it must be cut into stove
lengths and this costs more money
and more time for handling. In Till­
amook and all through the county,
wood of the fleet quality is plentiful,
and the only reason we can think of
to account for the shipping in of slab
wood is
a shortage of labor.
The cutting of logs has always been
a slow job, and we suppose that the
