YOUNG FRENCH WOMAN PAYS HOMAGE TO AMERICAN BOYS; TENDS GRAVES

"My greatest pleasure is to wander into the country, with an English book, and to-gather flowers for the resting places of your brare comrades .fallen In aiding our soldiers to defend our soil and our liberties," says Mademoiselle Emile Qomard, a French maiden, in a letter to Charles T. Wiley, Richmond representative of the Adams-Bagnall Electric company of Cleveland. Wiley served as a captain in France during the war. "I have adopted them all In the cemetery here," continues the young French woman. "In this way I have 317 brothers whose graves I attend they are brothers to us as well as you, for they died a little because of us, did they not?" . "I plant on the graves all the flowers I possibly can. Alas! For all that I wish to do for them! I sprinkle them; weed them; carry my bouquets, of which each one Is a bouquet not only of flowers but of thoughts which fill my heart to overflowing thourhts of gratitude homage to their noble country through their memory." . "I wish that their families and their friends might come to know, feel and understand, all their heroism and their fine qualities, and thus be made to feel in their hearts one with us. "It Is all that we have of them, and it is very dear to us here in the Tournalse. We have given down to our very last man, and our very last cent, to save our country, liberty and the world, but we will always remember that American' soldiers arrived in time to spare the blood of our soldiers and drink with us from the calls of adversity. Decorated in U. 8. Honor. "On Independence day the whole country was like a cemetery decorated with palms, plants and flowers of all

varieties, by the children. A little boy about ten years old read to your heroic comrades his response to a question composed by the professors to all the children: What do you think of American intervention in the warf Do you like America; her soldiers; why?' This small boy had the best wording of the school and the feeling and understanding of his words made cue cry. It reveals the soul of a people better than all the speeches of great personages. Here are tho concise words: '"You have aided our fathers and grandfathers to vanquish the Germans and because you are fallen many small French children still have their parents. Never, never, shall the small boys of France forget that Since the day when you poured forth your blood to save those who are dear to us, the blood that flows in our veins belongs to your great country even as it belongs to France. "'We swear to you to make ourselves worthy of our fathers and of you, and if one day. America should see her liberty menaced, there would be all of France to be mastered before the enemy could lay hands upon her.' It was a most loving message."

Sweet Potato Sweetness A freshly dug sweet potato is the seme of sweetness because of the natural sugar it eon tains. A "stored" potato loses this quality by the eraporation of the sugar juices. The potato shrinks and shrivels and is as tasteless as pasteboard, unless ' dressed up" -with sugar or carameL Hood '3 Sweet Potatoes art not shipped long distances before canning, but are grown in New Jersey, the home of the sweet potato, and packed on the spot expressly for the "W. EL Hood Company, , with all their natural sweetness canned in them.

No Doctors fcke Liquor . Bonds Here; Influenza Is Declining Here, Is Belief Believing they can handle their cases without the use of whisky, no Richmond doctors bo far as Is known, have taken out the necessary $5,000 government bond permitting them to prescribe it. "Instead, we are getting along very nicely without liquor." said a local physician Monday. "Influenza cases are few, and more curable with other

liquids." A decline in Influenza cases, which were thought to have reached their apex with 6 eases last week, Is reported by health authorities. Especial attention should be given to personal health, however, when the ice and snow now on the ground thaw, as wet weather and rising temperature will be less healthful, the physicians say. Border Raids Ordered, Committee Is Told SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Jan. 24. The organized and authorized character of border raids was indicated further In an attested confession of a Mexican prisoner taken in 1915 and submitted today to the senate sub-committee investigating the Mexican situation. It was incorporated in a report of Captain A. V. B. Anderson, then com-

. T , manding Troop A, Twelfth Cavalry. 1 The prisoner described the actions of his organization In its movements towards Norlas, Hidalgo county, as more of a regular organized unit commanded by a major of the Carranza army. He said that after the expedition had arrived at a point north of the Rio Grande the malor rear htn nrdorn for

'the attack and assured them they .had

oeen issued In accordance with President Carranza's Instructions. Similar teatlmnnv wa

jThomas Mayfleld, former Texas rang

er, wno submitted an affidavit by Guaralup Cuellar that Carranza leaders had given orders for participation In one of the raids.

They say that the usual food supply of the birds is shut off by the coating of ice, and that unless food and water are provided at onee thousands of birds will die of starvation and thirst.
