GREENEVILLE Union Picnic at Atlantic Beach— Farewell Party for Miss Connors— Personals and Notes. The annual union picnic of the Fed- erated, Greeneville Congregational Swedish, St. Andrew's and Nor- wich Town Methodist scopal ¢hurches was held Saturday at At- lantic Beach. The day was an ide one for picnicking and every one en- joyed every minute of the time. Over 800 people left for the beach on eight cars, starting from Sixth street and going right through to the . The cars were run In three soctions, leavi 30, one at 9, and the 1 30 o'clock. On arriving at the every one entered into the spirit of the accasion, and there was nothing to mar the perfect day. Mrs, Edear Brown of Prcspect street furnished considerable excltement when she loudly announced that she had caught a shark while fishing, and upon show- ing her captive it proved to be only poor unoffeneive mackerel about s inches long. No one was bitten by the ferocious fish. The children of the schools were given free ice cream. Bathing was enjoyed, the water being just the right temperature. Many enjoyed the m go-round, the slide, and other o ments at the beach. During the afte noon a basket lunch was served.

Dr. John Cupningham, formerly of this oity, who has been With the hos- pital corps in the English army in Northern France in the locality of Le Basse since last December, returned home Saturday evening after an ab- sence from this city for a pumber of vears, Dr. Cunningham was forced to quit the froptler owing to a fractured ankle received while performing his duty. Hury Call at 2 a. m. It was about 2 o'clock im the morn- ing when Dr. Cunningham and two other surgeons were called out on a hurry call and in the confusion of the moving of _the artillery pieces back and. forth the driver of the am- bulance lost the road which was sogs &y and muddy owing to weather con- ditions and consequently the machine tipped over, pinning his ankle #o- neath it. Dr. Cunpingham #listed in the hospital corps during the month of December, 1915. Crossed the Channel on Sussex. He left Folkstono on the Sussex which was later destroyed. On land- ing in France he encountered one of the severest winters that France has had in & number of years, especlally in the southern part of the country, and the trenches where the men were fighting wero slush knee deep and with the severe weather many were frost bitten. The Indlan soldiers who were in France gradually disappeared owing to the climatic conditions which they were unable to withstand, &0 that today there are only a few who have been able to hold ont. The doctor has talked with hundreds of wounded and convalescing soldlers who have ever seen & German sol- dier or has any idea what they look like, ~There are thousands of thesa poor fellows who aro wounded and killed and have not even got a glimpso of their adversariles because of the methods used in modern warfare in the trenche: Perils of Trench Warfare. They are stationed in these trenche es and there is rarely charging as m our Civil war as at Gettysburg. A sol- dier dares not pop his head up o the trench if he does so he is in da: ger of losing it owing to the snippers who do very effective work. Not oniy are the snipers dangerous, but the monstrous ficld bieces secure! se- creted with boughs of trees, branches, leaves, grass, are there at hand are most formtdable and deathly. The trenches have altered war fave n many way The British arm: where Dr. Cunningham was had a ries of perhaps four or five trenches arranged in tiers back of one another. 1e was used as a sort d in case of retreat the out post and diers move bacic to one next and so ol on and unseen by the enemy, It is nderstood by the officers in the re- gion of Northern France that the Germans have a long serles of such trenches, Role of the Acroplanes. Probably one of the most distinct features in this war is the use of the aeroplanes and Dr, Cunningham says that the machines which the British are using are superior to any of the others and more adapted for the purposes in which they are used. Dr. Cunningham reports that two ma- chines set out together, the first used scouting machine and followed y_after by the second which is dapted for fighting purposes and rves as a protection for the scout- ing machine. Although Dr. Cunning- ham saw many of those machines he never had the fortune to witness a battle in the clouds. In London When Zeppelins Came. Before enlisting in the hospital and while residing in London, Cunningham ha ed to be in at the tim of the Gern The populace was ex. ‘mely frightened and flocked to tkhe tubes that correspond with our sab- the larger cities. In order emselves from deadly gas which might come from Zeppelin bombs many of the inhabitants pur- chased #spiratiol masks but all *h missiles hurled down from aloft by the Germans contained no gas, but power- ful explo: es instead. Snapshots of Hidden Field Pieces. In speaking of the benefits derived from_the aircraft in modern warfare Dr, Cunningham mentioned their great use in lccating concealed field pleccs, hidden patteries and artilleries. The acronaut swoops close enough to earth to enapshot the hidden Weapons of war. Injuries Are Frightful, Eome of th cases which Dr, Cun- ningham was called upon to lend med ical attention were frightful; some of the poor victlms were armlcs, legless or Toth, parts of thelr bodiés torn away, while others were shattered. The wounded men are rushed by ambulance to the hospital base, wherc medical attention is rendered immediately, and from there most of them are seht to ince, where many of the 5 n converted into con- calescing wards, When they are able the wounded ofies are sent back to Lngland as soon as possible, where they can receive better attentlon, and thus doing saves much expensé. In some towns where Germans have been proprietors of hotels these have been seized and turned to ths same use as the others. In Mantoin there were some 40 German proprietors whose buildings were thus utilized. British Are Thoroughly Equipped. At the present time England has at least two million men in training, waiting 5o to the front. Every to fined to his home for the past few days with illness is able to be out. Miss Mary Daley has returned from a few weeks' stay at Block Island. Miles O'Sullivan and Thomas Mc- | Catfery spent the week end at the I, {of C. Outing club at Pleasant View. Frank Leonard has returned from spending a wef<’s vacation at the K. of C. Cuting Club at Pleasant Vie R, L Mrs. E. E. Fuller and son, Arthur have returned to Jersey City after spending a few days with friends in town. Mrs. Patrick Kirby and grand- daughter, Cathryne, of Fifth street, have returned from a two weeks' stay at Block Island. Muscle Soreness.

The army has a vast commissary department and all in all they are extremely well fitted out. The men are equipped with slate colored steel helmets which serve as a protection from the missiles that may be hurled by passing aircraft or parts of an exploding shell or shrapnel. These helmets were fifst introduced in the allies’ armies by the French and are proving their worth, saving many a fractured skull and tending to pro- tect them to some extent. Belleves in the Scotch and Irish. The uniforms worn by the British soldiers are the khald so mu used in our army. The Scot gally decorated with their plaids, have utilized khaki aprons, with which they covered themselves over so as not to be eo easily detected. And when it comes right down to recal fighting, Dr. Cunningham is of the opinion that the Scotch and the Irish have some- thing on the others. Another innovation which has proven to be a great asset in this war is the use of tanglework wire. It has much effectiveness and the work of sotting up these tangleworks and try to destroy them is done in the time, C Night Activity is Greatest, Dr, Cunningham says durin the night is the time when there eat- est activity, when the oppos! try to move thelr artillery or des the tanglework unnoticed. is lost in this process, as the snipers are ever ready.

Notice of funeral hereafter. TO OUR FRIENDS. We have been called upon by Him who guides our destinies to take the final parting with our beloved and hon- Michael Hourigan, who passed the major part of his lonz and model life in this community. The soulful manner in which relatives and friends came forward and did deeds of | kindness and proffered every possible assistance, deeply impressed us and made our burden of affliction seem more bearable. To those who sent flowers and to the associates of our father, in business, who showed him honor by attending the obsequies, we feel very grateful. This manifesta- tion of resard seems to us that the departed had gained the esteem of his fellowmen, and to live in the memory of your friends is not to die. Each and every kindly deed will linger in the confines of our memories while life endures.
