AMERICAN WOUNDED BEING CARE
FOR IN BIG
Ambulance Drivers and Aviators Nursed Back to Health by Wife of
Wealthy American Convalescents Play Golf on Chantilly
Links Chateau Faces the Famous Chantilly
Race Course.
Cliimtllly, France. In his big cha
turn hero whero for moro limn two
years lie had billeted upon lilnt uh
guests n dozen French officers uttuclied
to the stuff of General Joffre, Elliott
Fitch Shepard, the American million
aire, has established a convalescent
home for sick and wounded American
aviators and American ambulance drlv
era.
Shepard has resided at Chantilly
since the beginning of the war, except
during the fleeting visit of the Uer
mans Just before the battle of the
Mnruc. Then the Shepards drove out
of Chantilly toward 1'arlu In their big
touring car lit) minutes before the first
troop of Uhlans entered Into Chan
tilly from Scully, which II i toy hail Just
put to the torch.
After the battle of the Aisue, when
warfare stagnated Into Intrenched po
sitions, General Joffre selected Chan
tilly ns the sent of his Great Head
quarters. Tho "U. Q. 0" as the
French abbreviate "Grande Quurtler
Genomic, " remained at Chantilly for
more than two years, or up to the time
that Joffre was made marshal and Gen
eral NIvclle took his place as com
mander In chief of the French armies
in tho Held.
Turned Over to RefUQees.
Then came the Uermliu retreat to
the Hlhdcnburg line and refugees from
the devastated region evacuated by
tho Germans began to pour Into Croll,
Scnlts and Chantilly. Shepard turned
over tho rooms so recently given up
by the olllcers attached to General
Joffro's staff to the rofugees and took
21 under his roof the first night. Grad
ually tho French authorities shifted
tho refugees to the south of France,
and tkih once moro the Shepard home
was emptied except for the family.
It was then that Mrs. Eleanor
Shepard decided to open u convales
cent home for sick or wounded Ameri
can youths serving with the aviation,
tho Red Cross or any other branch of
the service. Since she has started her
enterprise Mrs. Shepard has had an
avcrago of sixteen American youths
us her guests at nil times, Some have
been suffering from wounds moro
and moro American ambulance drivers
arc being slain and mnlmcd by shells
since their number increases with ev
ery arriving ship. Others havo tho
dread malady known us "shell shock,"
when tho nerves nro literally set on end
through being under continuous bom
bardment In most cases tho illness
of tho ambulance drivers Is traceablo
directly to nervous Indigestion, caused
by tho tremendous excitement under
which tho boys work.
No Preliminary Preparation.
For theso youths, averaging from
seventeen to twenty-ono yours, como
direct from schools and colleges and
go under lire lu tho most terrible war
tho world has over seen, with no pre
liminary preparation. It Is only neces
sary that thoy bo ablo to drlvo motor
cars. They havo not tho military train
ing and drilling nnd Inculcation ot
discipline which fits the soldier for
tho life of the trenches.
Mrs. Shepard Is aided In her work
by her sister, Miss Mercedes Terradell,
(formorly of Trenton, N. J., who has
been In Fnmco doing wnr relief work
ifor moro thau u year. Sho gave valu
able aid to tho French authorities Inst
March when tho refugees were dumped
Into Chantilly by udmlnlsterlug ltrst
aid to tho tiny babies who formed a
considerable proportion of tho motley
collection of Buffering humanity that
tho Germans left In their wuke.
"Feeding tho boys regular American
food propured tho way they havo been
accustomed to having It at homo In the
principal factor In making them well
and strong again," said Mrs. Shepard.
"Americans nro not used to eating tho
coarse brown war breud which thu
French use, und they are not used to
living on soup und stew, either. After
a boy leaves here, If ho has a weak
stomach, I send htm packages of food
every week. I send him wheat bis
cuits that ho can cut Instead of tho
war bread, and rlco nnd preserved
vegetables thut wo put up hero our
selves, and occasionally, when there Is
an nutomobllo going up to the part of
tho front whero they are stationed, wo
can send them fresh meat and poultry.-
Take Up Golf.
Tho Shepard chateau faces tho Chan
tilly race course, and Just behind It
aro tho Chantilly golf links. Shepard
has plenty of clubB und near all of tho
convalescents learn something about
golf beforo they aro considered well
enough to bo discharged and go back
to their posts at tho front.

Won the War Cross.
Marcel Ciiny, a French youth of the
Two Hundred and Seventy-ninth regi
ment, who lived In Chantilly beforo
tho war, was also a guest of the Shcp
urds after he had captured a Germnn
machine gun and six German prisoners
single-handed In the llerce lighting
along the Chemln des Dames. Cuny
Is not yet twenty years old and had
Just been sent to the front when ho
performed tho act of gallantry which
won him the War Cross With a star
and a palm on the ribbon. Cuny
crawled out In "No-Mnn's-Lnnd" at
night on reconnaissance duty and
found a shell hole between the two
belts of barbed-wire entanglements, oc
cupied by the six Germans who wero
acting as a machine gun team. Cuny
was armed only with grenades, and as
lie squirmed forward on his stomach
to tho edge of the crater and raised a
bomb to throw lu among the Bodies,
they all six raised their hands and
cried, "Kninerudc."
Cuny ordered them to the French
lines and made them carry their ma
chine gun with tlioin. Ho took
six steel German helmets off to Chan
tilly he was granted nine duys leavo
for his braverv and envii tlmm nu
souvenirs to the American ambulanco
boys recuperating there.

TEN RULES FOR DISLOYALISTS
"German Efficiency" Applied to Pro
motion of Traitorous Propaganda
at Least Personal Rick.
Pro-knlscr and anti-war propagan
dists reveal their lack of "Germnn effi
ciency" lu tho frequency with which
they get themselves pummeled oi
"pinched."
In the Interest of more-efficiency,
the Independent has condensed the
methods of the most successful practi
tioners of disloyalty Into ten rules
for carrying on traitorous propaganda
nt least personnl risk.
Most of all of these rules so accur
ately describe the arguments which
nearly everybody has heard from ono
or more of the traltorous-mlnded that
they are worth frequent perusal. Tho
rules are:
1. Assert on every occasion that
"Wall street" made the war. Never
mind explaining when, how or why.
2. Get In all the sneers you can at
any profession of ideal motives. If
you can find any flaw In our democ
racy say that "we are Just as bad an
autocracy as Germany." Place tho
war In as sordid a light as possible.
3. It la dangerous to denounce the
United States directly. But rake his-
tory from end to end for mud to throw
at tho allies. Especially, twist the
lion's tail.
4. Profess great concern lest send
ing food to Europe will starve Amer
ica. Support every embargo movement
that applies to the allied nations and
none that does not.
5. If the president asks for any ex
tension of power ravo about "dictator
ship" and the "overthrow of the liber
ties for which our fathers, etc."
6. Spread rumors that the allies are
going to betray us or take advantage
of us as soon as we are deeply enough
Involved In the war.
7. Accept conscription In principle
but hamper Its working In every pos
slble way. One good way is to start
scares about revolutions and internal
disorder as a pretext for keeping a
largo part of the army at home.
8. Demonstrate that the enemy is
unconquerable and victory hopeless.
Play the "candid friend" and act as a
depressant.
9. Be very Jealous to prevent "en
tangling alliances" and be much con.
cerned about the Monroe doctrine If
wo "mix ourselves In European quar
rels." A permanent league of nations
would embarrass your Junker friends
If they remain In power after the war.
Germany can only hope to conquer
other nations If they act selfishly and
In Isolation.
10. WHEN DRIVEN TO MAKE AN
UNEQUIVOCAL STATEMENT PRO
TEST YOUR LOYALTY AND THEN
CHANGE THE SUBJECT.
Cut this out nnd hand It to the next
pacifist or luke-warm friend who tries
to start an argument.

TEXT Ho wnn wounded for our trans
?rcsslons, ho was bruised for our lnl
lultles; tho chastisement of our peacu
ivns upon Mm, nnd with His stripes we
aro healed.-Isaiah G3:G.
I.
This 53d chapter of Isnlah Is ono of
ihe most wonderful In the Bible. Some
one has called it,
"the very Jewel of
the Scriptures." It
ha: convinced nnd
converted to Je
sus Christ mnny
sceptics, not mere
ly by tho harmony
between Its proph
etic words and
their literal ful
fillment In the his
tory of Christ, hut
because of the
very conception
Itself which It
contains of his
character and suf
ferings.
John Wllmot, Karl of Rochester, was
one of the most brilliant nnd licen
tious nobles of tho dissolute court of
Charles II, but ho was laid aside by u
fatal disease.
In thu hope of breaking the monot
ony of the sick room he began tho
reading of books, and happened ono
day to pick up the Greek translation
of tho Old Testament. Ills eyes fell
on this chapter which he read care
fully several times.
"Whero did this man, Isaiah, obtain
n conception as tills?" he exclaimed.
I'uttlng aside the question of the real
ity of the career he describes, how did
he or how could any human being, un
aided by the divine, come to the knowl
edge of such a churacter?
Thus ho pondered, und tho problem
would not be driven from his mind
until he himself was driven to admit
the divine inspiration of the book and
to accept tho Lord Jesus as his Savior.
Bishop Burnet who know him well, tes
tifies that If ever thero wero a case
of real repentance on earth that of
John Wllmot, Earl of Rochester, was
one.
II.
Tills chapter furnishes one of the
clearest evidences of the vicarious na
ture of Christ's sufferings, In other
words, that ho died In our stead. In
its few verses there are no less than
11 asseverations of this truth: "Ho
Iwro our griefs j" "he carried our sor
sow8 ;" "ho was wounded for our trans
gressionK;" "he was bruised for our
iniquities;" "the chastisement of our
peuco was upon him;" "by his stripes
aro we healed ;" "tho Lord laid on him
tho iniquity of us ull ;" "for the trans
gression of my people wns he strick
en." Wo read In Roman history of Rogu
lus who had been delivered to tho
Carthaginians as a hostage. Subse
quently he was sent hack to Rome to
persuade the senate to a certain course
under a pledge that if they would not
comply ho would return to Carthago
and yield up his life. The story is that
ho himself advised tho senate not to
comply with tho conditions of tho Cnr
thaglnlnns nnd then voluntarily re
turned to Carthage and suffered death
under torture. In fact his sufferings
and death wero substituted for the
vengeance tho Carthaginians would
have taken upon Rome Itself If they
could have done so.
III.
The lnnguage of this chapter Is pe
culiar In that though it was com
posed moro than 700 years before
Christ, yet so much of It concerning
him Is written in the past tense. Tho
prophet seems to havo had a vision of
the retrospection In which his nation
would engage when, after their accept
ance of Jesus as their Messiah and
Savior In the latter days, they will
consider his earthly history and reflect
upon the part they had taken In his
rejection.
Somo of you have rend Charles Dick
ens' "Tale of Two Cities," and recall
Sydney Carton. The man who so hero
ically surrendered his life to the guil
lotine in order that tho life of Charles
Damey might be spared to his wife
and child.
Up until that time the associates of
Sydney Carton had not regarded him
very highly. He was wlovenly In dress,
dissolute In habits, aimless In life. But
as ho stands on tho platform before
the Jeering crowd, awaiting the signal
for tho.nx to fall upon his head, thero
draws across his mind a vision of tho
sanctuary made for him In tho hearts
of Charles and Lucy Darney and ho
sees their children nnd children's chil
dren, making annual pilgrimages to
that spot and their tears as they re
count tho story of his sacrifice.
It Is much like thnt that Isnlah pic
tures contrlto Israel. They aro look
ing back upon him whom they pierced.
"Ah," sny they, "we hid our faces from
him." Wo did esteem him stricken,
smitten of God and nfillcted. But ho
was wounded for our transgressions,
ho was bruised for our Iniquities 1"
It Is an experience with which every
converted man be ho Jew or Gentile,
must havo somo acquaintance. And ho
who claims to bo washed from bis sins
in tho Redeemer's blood and yet feels
no blamo for .his rejection nnd cruci
fixion, has yet to learn tho meaning of
that passage which speaks of our
crucifying him afresh and putting him
In an open shame.

MORE GOOD THINGS FOR WINTER.
With plenty of cucumbers still
growing, we may enjoy the following
for tho winter's store:
Oil Pickles. Slice un
peeled one hundred ten
der cucumbers ; cover
with ono and one-thirds
eupfuls of salt and let
them stand three hours.
Slice three pints of small
onions and cover them
with cold wnter; let them
stnnd three hours, then
drain tho cucumbers and
onions nnd mix well wltii three ounces
of white mustard seed, one ounce of
celery seed, one ounce of white pep
per and two eupfuls of olive oil. When
well blended, can and fill jnrs with good
vinegar, seal and keep In a cool place.
Good to eat In ten days.
Sweet Cucumber Pickles. Take
green cucumbers too old to cnt sliced,
peel and cut Into quarters lengthwise,
then each pleco into quarters. Let
stand in a weak brine over night. In
the morning cook In a mixture of two
and one-halt eupfuls of vinegar to tho
same amount of sugar until clear,
then skim out the pickles, plnce In a
two-quart Jar and cook tho sirup with
a few cloves, a piece of stick cinnamon
and a tablcspoonful each of celery
seed and mustard seed ; pour over the
pickles and put away for winter use.
Mustard Pickles Mix a quarter of
a cupful of mustant with the same
amount of salt and a tablcspoonful of
sugnr, add a quart of vinegar and drop
In the fresh cucumbers as they aro
picked each day.- A few peppercorns
or mixed spices may he added If liked,
varying tho flavor with mnce, bayleaf,
cloves or any spice desired.
Young enrrots make a very nlco
pickle for a variety. Cook the carrots
until tender, then put them Into a jar
and pour over vinegar, using sugnr
and spices to taste. Young beets are
also most appetizing canned this way.
Peach Chips. Slice firm, ripe
peaches quite thin, boll in u clear sirup
mndo of half their weight of sugar,
remove from tho sirip wltii a skimmer,
lay on u platter and set iu the sun
until perfectly dry. Sprinkle with
granulated sugnr and pack In Jars.
This makes n dainty confection to
servo as a garnish for ices or molded
desserts.
Grape Jelly. Take n basket of ripe
eoncord grapes, add five apples, which
In it y a
Z
cook soft quickly, and put them on to
cook with enough water to start the
grapes to cooking. When all thu juice
Is extracted, drain In a Jelly bag. To
one cupful of the juice add two eup
fuls of sugar; stir until the sugar Is
all dissolved, then pour the Juice Into
glasses and set away for a few hours,
when It will be formed Into delicious
Jelly of fine llavor. The Jelly made
in this way has the taste of fresh
grape Juice.
DIFFERENT KINDS OF BREAD.
Many housewives are using half pat
ent Hour and half straight grade Hour
in tanking bread. This
lessens tho cost consid
erably and gives a dark
bread which Is very
moist n n d altogether
palatable.
Barley Bread. Take
two eupfuls of whole
wheat flour, four eup
fuls of barley meal, one
cupful of water, one cup

In well-greased pans and let rise a sec
ond time until Its bulk Is doubled. Bnko
from a half hour to an hour, the tlmo
depending upon the size of the loaves.
Rics Bread. Take a cupful of water,
one compressed yeast cake, a teaspoon
ful of salt, two tablesiioonfuls of mo
lasses, two tcaspoonftils .of shortening
and the fourth of a cupful of Hour, and
one and one-half eupfuls of cooked
rice. Add Hour as needed to make a
soft dough, form Ito loaves and let
