of R. H. Van Brnnt, who has juat
returned from a stay of several
months in Belgium, Holland, England
and France, and is the guest ot his
father, 0. C. Van Brunt.
Mr. Van Brunt says hat France h

world war, and although he did not
get into Germany it is his under
standing that country is doing well.
Al the countries are now ' in need
f raw material and relief supplies.
In his opinion Austria 1b the worst

with four of the ten occupants dead
from exposure.
When the ship broke the fore part

in heavy seas was washed ashore on
the isle of Ar eland, Holland. For
Bve mrnths U lay, exposed to the
heavy breakers and frequent galas of
the Nirth Sda, but on account of its
