BY GRETCHEN SMITH. During the sad days of '17 and '18,| as hundreds of American soldiers in | | the hospitals of France closed their eyes |in the last great sleep, a wistful-eyed little French woman moved silently be- | | tween the great rows of white cots, | glving what consolation she could to | the lads whose last consclous words | were for “mother i To each one she ga | she would cross the seas and personally | visit the “mother” whose name was linvoked in death. She promised that | “mother” would know how her son died | “bravely, uncomplainingly, unafraid, as American sons should die—that “mqth- | er” could smile bravely through her | tears at the gold star pinned to her| | breast | | _ To the men of the A. E. F.. the little | { French woman became known as “the | | little mother.” a ¢ a section | of France where American soldiers were billeted was a stranger to her Thousands of Americans confided | their dying - messages to “the litte | mother,” Countess Constance Hillyer de Caen, a_direct descendant on her fath- er's 'side of the French house of | | Bourbon, | Fullfills Her Promise. a modest hotel in or Mile. de | called, is | | | ve a promise— Today living at | Washington the Countess, | Caen, as she prefers to be fulfilling_ her promises made ago_to the American soldiers who died | in_Prance “I have made United States,” she explained, “and have personally visited nearly every| Gold Star mother whose son I attended when he was dying. They Were noble| boys, the American soldiers, and among the thousands of maimed and wounded {whom I saw in the French hospitals | not from one of them did I hear a com- | plaint or an expression of regret for the sacrifices demanded by the war. “They say the French people are un- orateful. That is not true. We love America, and today the American sol- | diers' graves in my country are never | seven trips to the| This is Mlle. de Caen's seventh \lslll tc the United States, as she explained, | and she expects it will be the last in the | fulfillment of her promises. Throughout { every section of the country she has‘ visited Gold Star mothers, white, col- | ored and red. “Few Americans realize that there were over 17,000 Indians in the A. E.| P.” she remarked. “I met many of | these Indian boys when they were dy- ing. I was called to their bedsides be- cause I speak several languages, and the Indians, in death, would always speak their tribal tongue Learned Their Names. “Of course, I could not understand them, but I did learn their names, their tribes and where they lived. In. that way I have been able to carry many messages to the Indian Gold Star mothers throughout the United States I have seen all now but the Pueblo In- dians.” The countess’ brown eyes had & far- away expression “I cannot return to Prance until I have seen them,” she continued. “But I am afraid I will have to wait sometime, as it is so expensive traveling to New Mexico.” The countess explained that she per- sonally had financed the seven trips she has made in the past 13 years. Now, after visits to nearly every section of the United States, she finds it will be necessary to walt until her depleted | funds have accumulated sufficiently to | permit the final visit to the Pueblo Gold | Star mothers, | “It has taken much time and mone; she added, “but I am_ happy to have been able to do what I have done. It has brought great consolation and com- fort to these mothers to know that their boys died bravely and that the graves of those who lie buried in France will never go without care.” Attended 2,000 Soldiers. During the war Mlle. de Caen at- tended about 2,000 g American sol- diers, of whom approximately 150 were Indians of different tribes During recent v of Gold Star Mothers to France she personally con- ducted many to the graves of their| sons. In the past few years she has assisted in finding the graves of many | American boys, of photographing them and sending ta about them to rela- tives in this country. Among her most highly treasured pos- sessions, the countess numbers a full Indian headdress and an Indian fan made of eagle feathers, the gifts of grateful Indian relatives to whom she has carried the messages of the sons who died so far from the home and | native land of the Red Man.
