the American troops during the bat- j
tie of Chateau-Thiercy furnished only

" and his allies by the Salvation Army
workers now detailed with the fight '
lug units on the western front. .
? The troops had been hammering
at the Boche all day and all night
and many of them had been put out
of action during the terrific fighting,
but although aufferlng from wounds
made by shrapnel, rifle bullets and
hand grenades, most of the Injured
men were conscious and many of
them able to get about with the aid
of Improvised crutches. The surgeons
were busy 1^ the dressing stations
and the waiting soldiers wanted noth
ing so much as a good drink of
something cold and refreshing.
Then it was that the Salvation Ar
my workers came along with several
barrels filled with sure enough lem
onade. Where they got the lemons
or the sugar nobody knows, but th?
soldiers asked no questions a* they!

The surgeons said afterward that,
the lemonade served to keep dowr
