That South Tiend citizens have not forgotten the sacrifices made by American fighters in the shell-torn fieldt of Flanders and France is shown by the widespread interest local people are taking in the good will content being carried on here. They realize that the delegation of SO women, one of whom will be from South Bend, whieh is to journey to France late this summer under the auspices of the American Committee for Devastated France to see the work which is being accomplished there through funds contributed by the American people, will express th;.- nation's appreciation for the Fervlce to humanity rerformed by the soldiers and sailors of all the allied nations. Many of the local veterans themselves are among thoe who--have recognized in the contest, by which a South Bend woman will be one of the members of this Good Will delegatlon, an opportunity of cement-j ing the inveterate friendship exiftine between the T'nifed States andj France, a friendliip which tri j common sacrifices of the war served ! to efitablish all the more firmly, j These former "doughboys."
