Sergeant Farnamn hags the distinction of being the only woman officer in the allied armies and she holds the rank of eant in a crack regiment of Serbian cavalry She has been in the front* line trenches she has seen the Austrian shells bursting ‘round about her, she has scen the Serbian shellg scatter death and destruction in the Austrian trenches, she has seea the wounded Serbian jolted to death as they were brought back from the front over rough raud strapped upon the backs of slaw-going mules, she has seen women and chil- dren ving to death by the road- side; in fact, she has seen war at its worst, and after hearing her descrip- tion and listening to the tale of the patient suffering of the noble Serbian her audience could not but think that General Sherman was madest in his description. Seldom has or any other soldiers literally the Methodist church, local auditorium, housed such a vast audience as thronged it last evening to hear this wonderful woman soldier. The main auditorivm of the church was filled shortly after 7 a'clock and it was then necessar to open up the chapel.

Praise for Serbia. ied face downw Sergeant Farnam euloglzed Serbia and its people in the most laudatory terms. She declared that any storie that have gained circulation which may be rogatory to the nation, either as to its sanitary the morale of its people, are absolutely false. ie said that the people are Christiang, they are clean and they are big hearted. She first visited Serbia before the Balkan Wars, she said, when she went there as a guest of a friend in Belgrade. Later, when the Serbian-Bulgarian war broke oui she visited this country again. Tt was during this visit that it was so forci- Lly impressed upon her how clean the peaple were and how patient they were in their great s and suffer ings.
