Vast Activities of the Orjjanization Are
Described Field Service Now Has
Forty Sections Actually on
Duty on the French Front
Paris. Deeds of heroic courage by
American Red Cross men on several
battle fronts have Just been described
here ln a stntement by MuJ. Grayson
r. Murphy, American Red Cross com
missioner for Europe. He ulso gives
lietulls of the vast and miiny-slditl no
tii'ltles the organization has been tar
rying on, which now are being multi
plied many times.
Following out Its previously an
nounced project, ti e commission 1ms
already established relief and rest sta
tions for the troops ut points where
they must lie over while In trtmslt from
tho base receiving camps to the train
ing camps near the front. Owing to
tho demoralized, condition of the
French railways, troops nre often
obliged to spend between 48 nnd 7
hours in mnklng a Journey that could
ordinarily be accomplished In 12 hours.
The cars In which they are trims
ported nre frequently small French
freight cars, Into which 30, more often
40, men nre crowded. The result has
been that cnes of measles, mumps,
diphtheria nnd on numerous occasions
more serious diseases have broken out
among the men. To provide against
such tin exigency, station dispensaries,
each containing ten beds, a doctor and
two nurses, have been opened. Sus
pected cases or men asking for treat
ment arc handled Immediately Instead
of awaiting for the arrival of the truln
at Its destination. The patients lire
vUlted each day by some member of
tbe Red Cross, who brings them tobac
co, sweets or something to read, the
purchases being made from tho funds
which the United States has so gener
ously subscribed.
Another activity of the Red Cross
consists In the bringing to France of
about twenty Relglnn police dogs,
which will be trained to go out nnd
look for wounded. Tho dogs have
leen tried out In other armies, notably
the French nnd Russian, nnd hnvu
reuclled n high degree of proficiency
In their work.
' Training the Dogs.
The method of training Is to Mart
in to teach the dog to fetch an object,
usually a man's cap. Then ho Is taught
to seek out the wearer of the cup, to
return and lead the trainer to the
wen At, supposedly wounded. The dogs
have also been used with great suc
cess ln delecting the presence of
wounded liicu caught In the enemy's
wire entanglements and unable to es
cape through weakness.
With the formal transfer of tho
American umlmlnnce to the American
army, the ambulance censes to exist,
in name, as an auxiliary service of
tho French tinny, nllbough It will be
virtually continued as such until such
time as the American army decides It
needs It for Its own uses. The Amer
ican ambulance Is not, however, tit
the present time under tho control of
the Red Cross, ulthough that develop
ment may later occur.
Two of tho most recent members
of tho ambulance to receive the war
cross nnd army citations are ltasll K.

Section 17 of the field service, nnd

I 'tiring n local engagement around
Monnstir In which the French were
endeavoring to take n strongly held
trench that formed the advanced ele
ment of a Bulgarian salient, tho
troops advanced to the nttack about
four in tho morning, before the sun
had made any activity almost Intoler
able. By live o'clock the blue-coated pollus
had sSvarmed over the Bulgarian en
trenchments, bayoneting or bombing
any of the enemy who remained to
olTer resistance. The enemy counter
attack was slow In organizing, nnd
the pollus began tho tiresome work
of consolidating the position. Almost
at high noon the violence In tho en
emy's shell fire presaged the coming
counter-attack. Fifteen minutes In
ter tho Bulgnrs came over the top of
their second line of defense and hurled
themselves on the small band Xif
French.
The latter held firm nnd not only
succeeded ln driving off tho counter
attack, but chased the enemy back to
their second line, blowing up the
dugouts and putting n number of
machine guns out of action. It was
during the Intense beat of the mid
day and tbe concentrated lire of the
Bulgarian heavy guns that the
stretcher-bearers had to go out In the
open nnd pick up the wounded. No
facilities were at hand for their treat
ment, nnd un ambulance was usked.

Elllston volunteered for tho work.
During the heaviest part of the bom
bardment, while the enemy guns
were still showering high explosive
shells on the newly won territory, he
drove his machine over the rough,
shell-pitted ground. Instead of the
flgn of the Red Cross diverting the
Bulgarian fire, It seemed rather to
attract It. Shrapnel nnd tenr-cotn-pelting
shells burst nil around the
young Amerlcnn. but under the most
terrific fire he thrice made the Jour
ney In safety nnd carried to the base
hospital every dangerously wounded
case.

of nn army bakery nt Avord, the
French training camp for aviators,
Scnnlon was mnklng a trial flight
In a Nleuport and bad circled nround
In the most approved professional
manner, and had started to descend.
Of a sudden his motor stopped. Never
before having had experience with a
"panne de mot our," tho young avia
tor decided the best courso wns to get
to the earth with tho least possible
loss of time. He aimed for the avia
tion field, but tin error In Judgment
or n stray gust of wind drove him
too far, nnd he came down upon tbe
bakery roof with a force that drove
the nose of tho Nleuport clear
through.
Unhurt, but slightly stunned, Scan
Ion scrambled out of the debris and
climbed down off the roof by means
of a ladder that had been left propped
agalnsti the wall. Just as he started
off to report tho captain of the camp
came rushing up, nnd seeing Scnnlon
going away from the scene of the ac
cident, ordered him back to assist In
the removal of the supposedly dead
man, or to go call a doctor lf It was
discovered ho was seriously wounded.
Scnnlon saluted the captain, snylngt
"He's all right, captoln."
"How do you know? Who wns it
thnt fell?" demanded the captain.
"'Twirn I, captain," replied the
young Amerlcnn, saluting again.
"Well, you have had the most re
markable escape I have ever wit
nessed," declared the captain. "Young
mon, you were never mndo to be In

The speed with which It fell was
such that tho noso was completely
buried Inside the bakery, leaving only
six feet of the tall protruding through
tho outside of tho roof.

ter J. Thompson, husband nnd father,

Individual prowess counts for ns
much ns It did In the days of ancient
Greece, Waldemiir KiiemplTert writes
In McClure's. Names will stand out In
tho history of this war like those of
AJax and Achilles ln the epic of Ho
mer. Lieutenants Immelmann and
Boelke on the German side hnve
brought down nine and ten adversaries
ln mortal combat. Their exploits are
tinged with a chlvalrlc glamour which
seems anything but modern..
When Boelke landed to aid nn enemy
whom he hud wounded he wns greeted
with the comment: "Since It Is Im
melmnnn who beat me, I am satisfied.'
When the German replied that It was
"only Boelke," the Interchange of com
pllment8 seemed like a parley between
Hector nnd Ajax.
The analogy between Ilomer's battles
nnd twentieth century aerial combats
extends even to the vehicles .used
What Is n flying machine but the an
cient war chariot soaring on wings? In
many un encounter two man machines
still battle for supremacy one mnn
nn observer, tho other a pilot. Tho ob
server Is tho flgljthig hero of old, wield
Ing n mnchlne gun Instend of a sword ;
the pilot his faithful charioteer.
Curry tho annlogy still further and
consider how much Is at stake when
battle plane meets battle plane. The
fato of an ancient army depended on
a prlnco ln his war chariot; the fate
of any army corps now hangs on the
Information gleaned by a victorious
