THE CHATTANOOGA NEWS THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1918. AFRICANS DECORATED ; WITH CROIX DE GUERRE Dayton Boy Sees German Aero, plane Sight Over Head Could ' Have Hit It With Stone. The folio-win are a few exeerpti from letten received by Mrs. W. M. Nlxoh and Miss Maymo Nixon from their relative, Frank Sharp Darwin, eldest eon of Mr. and Mrs. Jaa, R. Par win, of Dayton, Tenn. j Young Darwin had been attending lha University of Virginia for the past two years, taking; the law course, when he and his college mates volunteered for ambulance service and were sent to France last June. The letter. In part, Is as follows: " "Somewhere In. France, "Feb. 12. lilt. "Dear Aunt Margaret: I want to thank you and Aunt Sarah for the nice sweater, helmet and wristlets, also the delicious chocolate candy you sent me. I received them today and certainly appreciate them. They will surely "be of great service In this cold weather over here. There have been many primes when I would have given much for those tmngs. "Today another one of our boys was decorated by French officers. That makes two Croix de Ouerres In our section, the other having been won by a South Carolina boy. Our army reg vlations will not allow the boys to wear - them, but the honor Is sufficient 1 am retting along all right. I have trained greatly in weight but as I am o tall, six feet I can stand It all right So you see the strain of war Is sot telling much on me." "Somewhere In France. "Dear Cousin May me: I was de lighted to get your letter a day or two aao. Have been on duty ever since Setting It and this Is the first chance I've had to answer k. I have been keening a diary In the aloe book you sent me. It Is the first ana I .have aver kept and I am glad you ent It It will help me remember many things and when I want to tell you all something particularly exciting after the war. I can Just refer to It or let you read It yourseir. No, I do not have a bit of trouble with the French language: it all comes very natural to me. Maybe because some of It Is Inherited. The French people are splendid so kind and con Iderata to us all. "Yesterday I was on duty and had occasion to go up to the first line trench. I could not take the ambulance all the way but had to walk a short distance. A German airplane flew over '" No Man's Land and back of our trenches Just above the tree tops, firing - his machine gun. The French machine tinns opened up on him and he soon "beat It back." I could see the German well and could have almost hit him with a rock, but I had no inclination : to attract his attention. Afterwards f another airplane got over me while I waa driving with some wounded French soldiers. He wss firing on the road, but the French machine runs ' ware again too much fer him. "It Is impossible for a plane to Veep up a continued fire toward the earth, as tt is necessary to point the plane : downward and he'd hit the ground himself, 'Knowing your fondnss for sou venirs, am going to send you some."

Special features appropriate to St Patrick's day have been planned. All members and friends of the church are invited. Since the creation of a woman's ommlttee to handle the reports of the war work done throughout tne coun try, there has been no little confusion, although the committee known as the council of defense and the National League for Woman's Servlc are largely composed of the same women. The National League for Woman's Service Is the parent patriotic organi sation In the city and has accom plished a wonderful amount of work for the soldiers botn at nome ana in foreign fields. The confusion aid not seem to reacn a point of clearing un at the meeting held by the council Of defense Wednes day. Some weeks ago the secretary of the National League for Woman's Service compiled a report of th work done by th leagu for the past eight months, or since Its organization, which waa published, and tb&a all the league had done could net be put In cold figures.
