He describes the trip of the V. >l. C. A. men with our troops going up to the fighting front and how they were supplied with coffee from the canteens at the starting point and also when the troops dis embarked. He took part in the stretcher work and also gave a graphic description of the heroism •>( the American poys In the attack at Cantigny. He told especially of the good work of the Carlisle Indian boys in that attack. Mr. Riddle is a son of the general passenger agent of the Cumberland Valley Railroad, and has two brothers in the service, one in France and an other who enlisted last week.

He said this afternoon: "Don't weep for the boys over there. They are well fed and being well cared for. The real requirements for all Y. M. C. A. men going abroad is consecrated com mon sense and a willingness to serve in any capacity."

July 2.—Given a ! hearing yesterday before United ' States Commissioner Long on a i charge of aiding her son, Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, "the man with out a country," to desert from the ! United States Army by evading draft service, Mrs. Emma C. Bergdoll in j terested herself in making paper i salt cellars. The widow of the wealthy brewer, credited with hav j ing controlled in his day the entire I liquor business of Philadelphia, ap | parentl ywjis not impressed with the I proceedings. Seemingly it was unnecessary for her to be interested personally, as everything went along in such fash ion that she could not take much ob jection to It. She was held in $lO.- 000 bail for a further hearing. Mrs. Bergdolfs arrest followed a day that might have proved sensa ! tional for her if she had not been the mother of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll. the boy who has been a perpetual sensation all his life. Sec ret Service men, who allege she aid ed a second son, Erwin, also to drop out of sight to avoid war duty, searched her home during the morn ing and commandeered many Im portant papers, including letters said to have been sent by Grover i as late AS June 1.

Picture that soldier-lover, camouflaged in clothing so that he can later mingle unsuspected among the German troops, soaring across No Man's Land as a passenger on tin allied flier, and then, when far over the German lines, departing from. the airplane by means of a parachute, and lowering himself in the enemy's country, just to learn some things that his uncle Sam wants very much to know. Maybe the deception will work, maybe it won't; maybe he will some day get back to his own lines to tell what ho learns —maybe he will never come back. But that is not what this waiting, watchful red-blooded American girl says. She declares: 'He will come back! I know he will come back! Oh, I have such faith. And there is a beam of sincere hopefulness in the eye of the charm ing Bessie Wynn as she says it. The popular little singer who is being featured at the Majestic Theater this week Just after returning from three years of war work where shot and ; ii-sP wr-'M Hp -^yfjl MISS BESSIE WTNX shell are thick, has an abiding faith as rich and sweet as her voice and as charming as her personality. "We must all have faith, but more than that we must work and give and work and give, for our boys must win," said this winsome little songstress to a Telegraph Inter viewer as she sat in her dressing room applying the paint that in her case adds nothing to her charm. Be fore she had been in Hafrrisburg two hours Miss Wynn had voluntarily, visited the ofHce of the farm labor | bureau in the Dauphin building and; offered her services during her off hours of the week that she will be i here. "Even if it is digging potatoes*) give me that to do." Miss Wynn told' Farm Agent Niesley, and the farm agent gazed approvingly but also quiizzically at the softiy-spoken lit tle woman whose name has stood out in electric lights before the big gest theaters of ihe country "What can prompt this girl's action?" he was asking himself And it was something of the same sort of quander that baffled the Tele graph reporter who called to ask Miss Wynn about her eagerness to ig potatoes in the mornings of the! days that she tills out in afternoon ! and evening with song. Our Share "One simply couldn't spend three i years in England and France as I j have done," Miss Wynn explained, j "without appreciating that every j moment of everybody's time back t here in good old America must be spent in the prosecution of this war.! We can do so much more than we j are doing, and there Is so much j need of everything being done, that j the message simply must be brought to all good American women, i These are not days to quibble about | how we shall do our bit The fact | that I sing in the theater in the) afternoon and evening must not pre-1 vent my putting my mornings to use for Uncle Sam and the wonderful cause, and what matter whether it be digging potatoes or knitting sweaters or making speeches or what not? There are hundreds of ways to win this war and I am going ! to till my time in wherever I can [ help. I have hoed many a farm in j the hot sunshine of a French after-1 JULY 2, 1918. noon, and ridden nearly a hundred miles at night to sing: to a hospital full of soldiers minus arms or legs. For three years I have worked in the war zone, and after a brief propaganda tour of the biggest thea ters of this country, to' bring home more particularly to the women of America the duty that lies before them, I shall go back to Kurope and work for the soldiers who are working for us. "Think of one hospital with 10,- tiOO cots, each cot containing a shell torn soldier. I have sung to just such a throng of maimed men when not half of them had two hands to upplauil with, and none of them strength enough to do it if they had. and I can tell you the light that shone in the eyes of those cheerful sufferers was the warmest applause that I ever want to receive. I have many times been driven in an un lighted and locked ambulance thirty or forty miles over rough ground to reach a hospital, and there have sung to- convalescent soldier boys when I had to pit my roice against the racket of bursting shells and gunfire. And don't you think for one moment that these boys are dis couraged. None of them want to die. They uiay lose a leg or an arm or both,, but they don't show the slightest evidence of broken courage. It is a wonderful sight Her Mission Home "My mission in America is not so much to take up my profession at this time as it is to spread before the wonderful women we have in Amer ica tlje "crying need that they help. And they are helping, too, God bless them! But don't let them hesitate at anything, if working in the lields is going to help to feed those worthy boys of ours over In France, then, women, let's pull on our boots -and take up the hoc. That's the way I feel about it. They are doing it iri Kngiand—women of wealth and sta- tion are working side by side with the laboring classes of women at the plow in the tield. And that's why C was quick to tell the farm agent that 1 am ready to hoe potatoes If there are potatoes that need hoeing." Miss Wynn talked freely about her romance of the great world war. How her intended husband, to help the allies, risked his life in the thrilling manner above described, and as he set sail on the perilous errand she was Just a few miles away,* putting a little added sun shine into the lives of convalescents) with her songs. "Worried? Not a bit," said she, "He'll come back to me, I know he < will. That's niy faith." . "There is so much that 1 eoiUd talk about. Think of it—three years among air raids and land lighting and hospitals filled with wounded but happy men. Wouldn't there be a store of thrilling things to tell about. But you couldn't print them all. The most important is my plea to American women to work and work and work. They can do , so much, and so much is needed. Their own boys over there are counting so much on the folks back home. 1 know It; I have ben among them, our own good American boys ' in war-torn France. So just tell the women to keep up the spirit, and help, even if it be digging potatoes or hoeing corn." And the lights flashed and charm ing: Bessie Wynn dashed from the dressing room. That was the last I saw of her, but as I left the stage door I could hear a clear, sweet voice singing We're one for all and all for one And we're coming ten million strong, | She was still spreading her propa* panda.
