AS IT IS VIEWED IN ENGIAND. From Patunlay's Daily. The following clippings which we are indebted to John McLean, of the firm of Avard & McLean, for it is from the over-seas Edition of the London Daily Mail: England As The American "Blighty." It is good news to learn that, the wounded Americans are coming to England. It is proof positive that they feel "at home" with us. An American mothers boy may be dead or badly wounded weeks before the news reaches her. She has more sus pense because of the great distance she is away perhaps 6,000 miles and if the son goes home at all he goes injured, may be maimed for life. But it will be a great consola tion to American mothers to know that while their sons are on this side the Atlantic England will be, as it were, a second home to them. This should be a consolation to those who have friends in France, who are in the service, and should there be such a thing as they may be wounded it is known that they will have the care which can be giv en in the iand where the light Is for the life of civilization. Here is another clipping coming from the name source: Hotter Than "In the Sun." Brigadier-General Page Croft, M. P., has received the following tele gram from Mr. Gerard, the former United States Ambassador to Berlin, whose film "My Four Years in Ger many" was screened at a recent meeting of the National Party:- "America is aroused, led by our great President, and the whole coun try prepared. Mighty armies will help you put the German autocracy in a hotter place than "a place in Cie sun." Gerard." The hotter place, which is their destination, is being made by and for themselves, but the past ports are liable to be furnished by some of the missies, from r.n American gun.
