OF GAS ATTACKS
BELGIAN FRONT
LONDON, May 25.—The Baroness]
T’Serdass and Miss Mairi Chisholm, j
two Englishwomen who have lived ini
a dugout on the Belgian front lor
three and a half years, caring for the j
Belgian troops, and who are known
throughout the Belgian army as the
"good women of Pervyse,” have ar
rived in London, suffering from the
effects of a gas attack on the Belgian
front in the recent fighting there. Both
have been seriously ill, but are now
sufficiently recovered to be admitted
to a convalescent hospital here.
“We were accustomed to bombard
ment,” said the baroness in an inter
view here, “and our dugout has been
hit a hundred times since we lived
there. But in this last attack the
shelling was more dreadful than we
have ever known.
“It was early one morning, after
;i night-long bombardment, that we
decided to venture out, knowing that
there would be many wounded need
ing our care. While we were dress
ing i heard a shell burst outside our
dugout, and a moment later 1 found
our orderly lying on the floor of the
corridor. 1 rushed up to see what I
could do for him, when suddenly I
felt as if a rope had been fastened
around my neck.
“1 could not breathe, and was ab
solutely helpless. Miss Chisholm,
too, was in agonies. My little dog
Shot, who had been with us for three
years, came up and looked at me with
wondering eyes, licked my hand and
died, i don t think i had ever before
felt that 1 actually hated my enemy,
but ever since my dog was gassed I
have longed above all else to kill
German!
"It was only about half an hour
before we were taken away in an
ambulance. The ambulance was
smashed by a shell after a quarter of
a mile, and we were picked up again
and taken in a big truck to a base
hospital. We were there several days
before we were able to be moved to
London.”
The two “women of Pervyse” have
been the only women who have been
permitted to live and work at the Bel
gian front. Hundreds of volunteers,
American and British, have asked to
be allowed to help them, but the B< 1
j gian command would not even allow
| a third woman at Pervyse.
In the early days they worked sin
gle-handed. but a doctor, two stretcher
bearers and a chauffeur came to help
them later in their little casualty sta
tion. the nearest hospital is ten
miles lrom Pervyse. Their station
was always open, day and night, for
tiivial ailments as well as for serious
wounds. Their dugout was made of
concrete, and had an operating room,
a kitchen and a small sleeping room.
1 he husband ot the baroness is a
Belgian army officer.

URGES AMERICAN PLAN
TOKIO, May 27.—If the Japanese
care to contribute something toward
the education of China, and at the
same time improve relations with thatj
country, the Jiji Shimpo urges them i
to take a tip from America and re
turn the residue of the Boxer indem
nity into an educational foundation j
for the Chinese. Japan can do at
least this much for China, says the
Jiji, though she cannot afford to com
pete with the United States in edu- [
cational, religious and charitable work,
in China.
