Charles H. Nutting by hls sister, Mrs. T. Edward Davis, of Westminster, Canterbury. Lieutenant Nut is in the Amer- ican Red Cross unit in Serbia and what the Red Cross is doing there is to be paralleled among the Syrians, Armenians, Greeks and Hebrews of Asla Minor by the Near-East aid fund. Lieutenant Nutting's letter follows: Kremljani, Serbia, Dec. 3, 1918, My Dear Sister:— Well, the great war is about over— all but a few minor details, such as executing the kaiser and a few others, etc., etc, etc, but the work of the American Red Cross, with much al- ready accomplished, has only begun. The people of this countiry are entirely destitute, and they are coming back to their lands, their homes having been utterly destroyed—everyihing they had having been taken from them, and they have nothing to eat or wear, no tools, no seed to plant or sow, and a dreary, heart-gick prospect. We—the American Red Cross— are distributing seed, wh2at and rye, wagons, tools, etc.; also we are feed- ing many thousands of women and children every day, in different cen- ter We have about 150 German and Bulgar prisoners and about 50 Serbi- ans at work for us, so you can see it is quite some camp. It has been raining and snowing )\rrc for about three weeks, and there s plenty of mud here, but the moun- lam» all around are covered deep with snow (snow is snake in Serbian lan- guage). Some time ago I lent my rubber ccat and hat to one of the Serbian chauf- feurs who was driving a large camion truck, moving one of the hospitals to Scopia, near the battie line, as he had no coat and it was raining, expecting to get it back in a week. This man was taken sick and was unconscious on the for While he one made off with my rubber coat and hat, so I will be without one, as they cannot be had here at any price. I am in the, tent with my overcoat on and nearly frozen. 1 must stop and warm my hands, as they are nearly frozen and I cannot write. On my way from Salonica into the interior of Serbia I [mbsed an aerial railway (wire rope) over 25 miles long over the mountains, which the Huns used to transport ammunition. It was a great piece of engineering, but they had burned every station and destroy- ed the e s by burning them every little way.

S. A., about 100 bushels of seed potatoes, but they were in very bad condition, in fact, half of them were rotten; but we had several patches of the best of them planted in different towns. It was very hot and dry and we hardly thought they avould amount to anything, because it was so late. One patch was a total fail- ure, but the others all gave a fair yield of nice large smooth potatoes such as never hefore had been seen in Serbia. At least three-fourths of the crop were stolen by the troops—English, French and Italian—but we could not blame them, as they probably had not had a decent potato in three or four years. However, we have about 90 bushels safely stored for spring p!;mtmg and they will be planted in time, in favor- able conditions. There will probably be no troops to disturb them and will probably yield 1,500 bushels, which will all be saved for seed again, and then there will be enough for all Ser- bia and they will thank the Ameri- can Red Cross for them. The potatoes here, heretofore, were very small, not averaging as large as walnuts, and most of them the size of a good cherry. The hardest fighting of the Balkans was in this immediate icinity, and during the last great drive we could not sleep for two weeks, the firing was so_terrific. I was in the former enemy territory twice, soon after the last offensi about 100 miles, and the sights I s cannot be told. You would hardly be- lieve them. Perhaps the saddest, the young women who had been carried off by the Bulgars, returning to Serbia with but a piece of burlap around the loins, most of them bearing childr and there were many children 2 to 7| vears old without a single rag on | them. | SEND FOR FREE TRIAL PACKAGE This 1s an age of beauty.
