CHICKENS MADE FRANCE OVER

(United Press Service) Soissons, France—(By Mail) “American chickens made life a little gayer in France,” the peasants here say, regarding the efforts of the American Committee for Devastated Trance to aid the stricken people of the Aisne district And they meant it, too, for the proud clucking of hens and lordly crowing of roosters are the first sounds that greet the tourist when he visits the war-torn villages of the Aisne valley. For the American committee has really carried out its slogan to “re-chickenize” France. American dimes and quarters received here daily are going into the fund to put “pep” in the poultry business in France. In the last three months women wearing the French blue uniforms of the Committee for Devastated France distributed 8,451 chickens throughout the 'IOO towns in their charge. In addition they have established two chicken farms in the interior of France, capable of producing 2,000 chickens a month for use solely in the devastated regions. Following the policy of the American committee to and not to pouperize the people of the Aisne, the chcikens are sold at half-price, the present rate of sale being 10 francs. Money sent from America makes up the remainder of the cost price. Incubators, moreover, are installed in a number of towns down on the front. Besides chickens, Americans put 105 goats in the Aisne—to furnish milk for war-babies —1,500 rabbits, as well as ducks and abws, to furnish food and give a business start to many a French “Tom Sawyer.” Rolling stores on trucks carry suplies to towns where no stores are open, no doctors present, and no buildings habitable other than tempcrary shelters, barracks and caves. ONLOOKERS AT TRI KAPPA DANCE Every one is invited to come up to the Masonic hall and enjoy the music even though y<<i do not ca e to dance. The admission for onlookers is 75 cents, will be well worth your money and time.
