"The Great Need" is the title of a little phamlet being distributed by Mrs. Snyder, and its appeal Is pa thetic, heart-rending. "From the Near East." it reads, "comes an ap peal for clothing. Five years of des titution have reduced hundreds of thousands of people there to a most pitiable condition. "Many thousands of Armenians, driven from their homes during the war. are still in exile. There has been no way to secure clothing to replace what they wore when they were driven forth. "All industry Is paralyzed. The people, though willing, cannot earn a livelihood. Vast throngs wander from place to place, clad only In bits of iuks and strips of burlap bags. "The appeal Is extraordinary. Numberless men. women and little children In the Near East are all but destitute of clothing and thousands have no covering whatsoever save the thinnest rags. Last year America sent seven hundied and fifty tons of clothing. The supply la exhausted and the clothing worn out.

Dr. Bremner's regiment was over in France, but it was not until the early part of 1915 that he went Into the trenches. Ypres was his first engagement, and it was there that the Germans introduced gas warfare, and it's a horrible picture that the young Ca nadian paints of the suffering of himself and his brave comrades as they met the German onslaught with out gas masks. Men lay on all sides writhing with pain from the effects of the cruel chemical, nauseated, and many deathly sick. But dipping their handkerchiefs in uiud, they applied them to their noses, and were able to frustrate, after much loss, the attark.

Before he re covered, however, the call for men became so urgent that he was sent back into the Hues with a tempera ture vf 103. Kis shell-shocked condition came upon htm by degrees. His nerves first began to give away In a mammoth German cement dug-out when a shell fell into the opening, blowing an of ficer to atoms, nothing but his leg being found, and severing the top of his best chum's head off, killing him Instantly. The three were at a lis tening post, keeping brigade head quarters in touch with the front lines through the medium of a telephone. Dr. Bremner was at the Instrument when a call came to the effect that the Germans had ceased firing. Turn ing over the telephone to his chum, he went down into the dug-out to cut some wood with which to keep a fire burning during the night, and he was engaged in this task when the shell fell through the opening, ex ploding its shrapnel over his two comrades. It was a few days later, as he was going "over the top," that all other shell fell at his feet, so close that his life was spared, but his nerves were so badly shocked that he sank Into unconsciousness. He was a full-fledged shell shocked soldier now. Incapacitated for further duty. He was sent back, a hopeless case. "After all other methods had fail ed," said Dr. Bremner, "I tried chiro practic, and so noticeable was my im provement that I decided to go to Davenport, Iowa, and not only take the treatments but study the profes sion. That was three years ago, and now I believe I am fully recovered." Following his graduation. Dr. Bremner relieved a chiropracter at Raleigh for three months, then he went to Charlotte.'
