OF WAR CHILDREN
MOST PITIFUL OF ALL WAR'S
CONSEQUENCES.
Germans. The girls are lost to
France forever.
"Men may be, defeated, but they
are not conquered. Women through
the strongest of all human emotions
and attributes, the mother instinct,
can be conquered, and the Germans
know this. So they -.keep the''girls
over 16 with the mothers of but one

Life in Occupied France.
Their Lives Are Stunted, Dwarfed,
Blasted, Says U. S. Red Cross
Worker in France:
"Can you imagine anything more
pitiful than the lives of children who
have never known anything but war?
Is there anywhere on God's green
earth a more dreadful tragedy than
the tragedy of a blighted childhood?
"ie most 'wonderful thing to me in
America is to see little children run-
ning about, happy and unafraid.
"I have spent six months in the
nearest approach to hell that exists, I
believe, in or out of the teachings of
the theologians -the hell where ba-
bies are born to hear the sound of
bursting shells as their introduction
to this world of ours, where little ones
learn their mother tongue only fur-
tively and in whispers, where children
must learn_to wear their little gas
masks as soon as they learn to walk,.
where suspicion and fear rule and love
and confidence are not.
"What do we in America know
about war? We cannot begin to sense
"We piece together the picture of
the life of these little ones inside
the German lines from the stories
they tell, they and their elders, but.
more from the look in their faces
when they find themselves in a world
where the sound of guns is a long
way off and where, wonder of won-
ders, people actually speak French
aloud without first looking around to
see if the Bodies are. listening.
"For the strongest impression one
gathers from the repatriated of the
life of the native civilian in the
strange No Man's Land behind the
German front is of a country where
the people's civil/another tongue ..i s
'verboten,' but" where nevertheless
they all speak, it and teach it to their
little ones; a land where little children
are taught from infancy to . be sly
and deceitful, to do furtively and by
tealth the things that are their pro-
per birthright but which are `ver-
ihoten' by the oppressor; above all, a
land where hatred is sucked in with
the mother's milk, where every stran-
ger is an enemy to be feared, where
the awful threat, 'if you don't be-
have the Bache will get you is not
what it means so long as our children the invoking , of a story -book bogey
play. I know what war is, for I have man but a real, life and death terror,

When Dr. Esther Lovejoy went
over to France she found the Ameri-

Germans Keep Many of Then/.
"Not all the little children," said
Dr. Lovejoy, "for there are many
whom the Germans keep inside their
own lines.
"In the French territory occupied
by the German armies' there were, be-
fore the war began, more than 6,000,-

"One of the most pathetic sights is
'to see the older., children, those who
remember France as it was before the
war, when they get to Evian, back .
into France once more, where they
can run about and play and sing and
shout as they Used to do. They are
shy and awkward about it at first,
but they soon recover their spirits and
gayety. tir

The sergeant had been carefully

made of it: "Here's to the gallant
Eighth, last on the field and first to

Silence reigned; then the corporal
came gallantly to the rescue:
"Gentlemen," he began, "you must
