LETTEB FROM
PUBIS
In the mail tody Mrs. W. C.
Blaiichard, chairman of the Skag
wiy Bed Cross, received an in
teresting letter from her sister, Dr.
Esther Lovejoy, who is serving on
the civilian relief of the American
Bed Cross in Paris. We print
uarts of the letter:
4 Place De La Concorde,
Paris.
Bear Ann:
Your sister in France is a mighty
ocor correspondent but be com
forted, her sentiments are all
righ?. Her heart hasn't wandered
from her own, hut she is so busy
that writing, except as part of her
duties, is practically out of the
question.
This work is doing mo as much
goofl as it is doing anybody else
an>! I have reached the conclusion
after three months contact with
th>- real thing that those who have
th« luck to live in the western
liar* of the United States at this
day and age, should be content and
a3k up more of their lucky stars.
i have been at Evian, on I^ake
Geneva and have just returned. That
la the dumping ground for the
people of no military value. Hun
dreds of thousands of the old and
the sick and the feeble and little
children. All of those that will
burden the nation at this time are
sent to France through, Switzerland
via this town. It is utterly im
possible to tell about these things
in a letter, but I am making a re
port of the conditions for the Red
Cross which you win uoueuess see
some day.
Life is so short and so full
of real trouble over hero that it
seems u a worthy for people to take
their little personal affairs serious
ly. This is the time to forget one
soif, anil make bandages or jo gome
tbiDi' worth while. The }var Isn't
over yet. Boys of eighteen are
fighting here, and some of OUR
BOYS may be in it before 'lie fin
ish . Every man and woman in
•Amprea should do his and her ut
most at this time, for the harder
wo sirike as a nation the smaller
the sacrifice will be in the finish.
