My Dear Aunt: You flatter me when you write and ask me to write a piece for our home paper, The Henderson Gold Leaf. I only wish that I was cap able of doing this. I would love the very best to be able to send news that would do good to all those back home. Some day I will try to do so, just give me time. At present we are very busy. The (Huns) Germans visited us twice last week, but we have gotten quite used to that now. Of course they come at night which means for us to get up right now and get dressed, move all the patients off to another floor. Even "with both of their raids they have done very little damage, and we got quite a lot of their men and machines, as you know they always come in, but we are ready for them so they only get in the suburbs of the city, 4 Air machines drop bombs all they can over this city. This is a lovely city. I like to be here. The view from my window is fine. I would like to have you here. Even now one could hardly tell there was war for everything moves on as usual in the very best business way. These people are a great pleasure loving set. Every evening you will see lots of people going to the shows, and the streets are crowded with men, women and children, yet it has the best there is in France at the front. Everybody I see thinks and feels we will win tbe victory in this war, so we will and we must. Our hospital is full of sick and wounded. They come and go all the time. We nurses hardly know some of them before they are gone back to the battle lines or some oth er place. There are some fine men among, those we know. Well I don't know how much of this letter will pass the censor and reach you. Give my love to all the neighbors, ... ' Your niece, ' " ' I ' ...c" EULA PASCHALL. 53 Men Called From Franklin.
