to keep the w ork g.ung.
We have appi oxunately fourteen'
hundred patients now and we find it
very iiaid to reduce the numV.T. We
return about fifty t, duty daily, but
our aveiuv admissions are just about
the same number, so mi can imagine!

Sue did not meet to her knjwbdge. a
single Randolph boy. but she said she
met a large number of North Carolin

she was soi-ving humanity it gave her
greater pleasure to serve the south

the highest tribute to the services the
American soldiers did on the battle
fields of Franco and said that when
the news of t"'o signing of the armis

cheering. The men were very quiet,
and did not want to stop fighting.
Miss Hill states that the Red Cross
nurses were worked continuously
from the time they arrived in France
until they weio relieved after the
armistice was signed. During the
heavy lighting the day force went on

until night without a minute off.
Then the night force came on and

people of the United States never re-1
alized the real meaning ot war re
lating how she arrived back in New
York and found the people celebrating
the daw n of peace in such a noisy I
manner she and the other nurses were
shocked. They felt as if they had
been at some funeral for a year and
now that it was over wanted to re
main quiet. The noise seemed irrev
erent. What Miss Hill emphasies more
than anything else is the spirit of
American soldiers. "They were splen
did," she said, "under no circum
stance were they downhearted or
pessimistic. At the highest tide of
the German advance the American
spirit and humor was always pres
ent. They were always funny, jok
ing at their hardships and their losses.
And as one of the 1-rencr, newspapeis
expressed it, 'they were to the French I
people what a glass of champagne is(
to an exhausted man.' "
Miss Hill arrived at Hohoken, New
York, on March 1st. On the 11th she
came to High Point. She has accept-1
ed a position in Charlotte in the
branch ol public service as a com
munitv nurse.

the fact that America was preparing

"And those millions and billions oi
dollars spent were far from being

I feel that tha fact that monejr was

German gonsral staff, and that it caus
ed their maw ago to the kaiser that
they wore bMtan and that he must

is that this monejr, inatead of being
wasted, can be written down nn hav

them for the money to bring our boyi

when the people of America reulize
