about the caste habits of the Indian '
1 soldiers will make trouble at the front,
says General O’Moore Greagh.
One correspondent wrote that the
Gburkas had been given a special dis
' pensation to eat beef and drink porter,
■
I like the British soldiers. Nothing,
could be a worse insult to the Ghurka,'
says General Greagh.
; The British press has lavished Its
praise almost entirely on the Ghurkas
and Sikhs, to the neglect of other fight
ing castes. There are, for instance,
three regiments of Dogras, who al
though of poor physique, are the cool
est under fire of any of the native sol
diery. Some of the best fighting In
dians are the Punjab Mohammedans.
A popular mistake is that the Ghur
kas throw their kukrlb or carved
knife, at the enemy. They do not
throw it, but use it so skillfully that
they can behead a buffalo calf at a
; single blow.

“Headquarters Belgian Army.
“It gives me great pleasure to ac-’

transmitted to me to ibecome patron
ess of the Woman’s Section of the
| American Commission for Relief in

men of America the deep gratitude of
the women of Belgium for the work
which they are doing for my people.
“The food which your country is
daily providing for our women and ohil
dren comes like a ray of sunlight in
the darkest hour of Belgium’s history.
The Belgian women have fought a
brave fight and are still fighting: for
the common cause of human liberty
so dear to every American woman's
heart.

“Chairman Woman’s Section for Re

“I gladly accept your invitation to
become patroness of the Woman’s Sec
tion of the American Commission for
Relief in Belgium. I know that I
speak for every Belgian woman and
every Belgian child when I say that we
I thank God for what you are doing.
Now that the extremity of our dis
tress is becoming known, we feel sure
the tender hearts of the women of
America will respond to our cry.
“Food is terribly needed by millions
of my brave brother’s unhappy sub
jects, who still remain in their native
land. Before winter is over the need
will become still more desperate. In
the name of the suffering women and
little children of Belgium, I ask the
women of America to help us.
