A great crowd had gathered at Seventeenth and Chestnut streets for the big ball game and here a party of patriotic girls, including Miss Sara Carpenter. Miss Sarah Ogelsby, Miss Etna Berry, Miss Myra Wentz and Miss Margaret Atkinson sold great quantities of the ringed sweetness. The party of girls was supported by several soldiers who sang appropriate selections front the ' platform of an automobile tru</c ac companied by a pianist. There was great interest in the Salvation Army 1 activities as brought to the hall game by this delegation of dough ! nutcrs, and for a time all interest ! in the game was lost while every ; body munched the doughnuts. On the return from the game the I soldiers and group of girls observed a troop train, which arrived, from ' the Mulberry street bridge. This was too good an opportunity to be lost and immediately the soldiers sang a welcome to the returning boys in khaki and the girls dropped bags of doughnuts into the uplifted ' hands of the soldiers below. Their ; appreciation was voiced in hearty ' cheers and the response was just what might have hcen expected from those who. fresh from the front, knew what the Salvation i Army lassies had done for the fight ers over there.

She says: "I have actually been m the serv-[ •cc for six months and am wearing: the silver triangle on my sleeve.! * * "We enjoy now the reputation of having the best Y in France and I m proud to be associated with it. j Our 'Wet Canteen' is an important feature of the work and has won i high praise from fill our guests, in-j eluding the buck private and brig adier genera.'.

It surpassed any thing ever done be'fore in the area and the men were delighted. Their were large dishes of colored eggs on every table and we served an e'abo rate breakfast. For the luncheon that day we had so many good things, in cluding roast turkey, that the men groaned because they coludn't have some of everything. I served all the morning except for one hour when I attended service. The men were so [appreciative of everything. The two red letter days of my life in Grenoble are Christmas und Easter, I can never forget them. * * At Christ mas we had a thirty-foot tree beau tifully trimmed and on Christmas Eve after the lyrand march, a real 'live Santa Claus' gave every man a present. 1 played for the Christmas morning service and can never for get bow beautifully the men sang the hymns.

Distinguished Speakers "Besides those connected with the Y in Grenoble, we have had some distinguished clergymen speak, among them Bishop Charles Brent, of the Episcopal church and Bishops Anderson and Henderson, of the Methodist church. Our men seem deeply interested and appreciative of the religious services. * * * You have doubtless read of the oppor tunity given our men of attending the English and French universities while the Army is held in France. About 400 are attending the Uni versity of Grenoble, (he oldest in France and dating hack to 1329. The Y cares for these students as well as providing for the permissionaires. This area wi'l be closed after May 6, but some of the Y workers will re main (o look after the interests of the students till the end of June.

FRITIT PRASPErTS WERF NEVER BETTER [('out lined from First Page.] found in his Inspections throughout the county. Apples, peaches and plums ail promise to lie a normal crop In this county, although the production of poaches and plums 's somewhat In consequential. No annlcs have heen frozen, the count l ' agent says. The strawberry production in Dau phin countv is questionable. Few reports have heen recoiled since the heavv storms of the past several davs and it is not known what dam age may have been dope. The n'ants were in full bloom whe.n the unfavor able weather began and considerable damage may have resulted, Mr. Nles ley believes. Bumper Crops Wheat and hay promise to be bumper crops among the other prod ! nets of the county. The wet weath er of the past several weeks has heen quite favorable to the growth of both of those crops and a pro duction ten per cent, above norma! may be expected. Both are several weeks ahead of the normal growth. The wheat acreage is larger than nor nflil, between five and ten per cent, more than usual being planted to this rain. Corn, oats, barley and rye all promise normal productions. Their growth has been somewhat hindered by the cold and wet weather and all are somewhat late. Slightly less grohnd than usual is planted to corn and wheat. The rains of the past several days have washed some corn from the round, while much of it has not yet been planted because of unfavorable weather. It Is too eafly to give an accurate forecast of what may be expected in tho line of a potato crop, Mr. Niesley said, but everything now appears to be quite favorable for a large pro duction. A larger acreuge than us uul has been planted to the tubers, but the growth hus not been us fast as usuul because of unfavorable weather conditions- MEMORIAL DAY G. A. R. SERMON The Rev. Dr. H. X.
