FRIDAY, AUGUST 21 i AMERICAN DOCTORS WORKED IN BELGIUM Treated German Wounded in a Harrowing Trip Around Liege. Say Troops Were Marching Part Night and Day in Masses. Cannon Inscribed “Nach Paris.” London.— Dr. W. H. Aurand of Min neapolis, and Dr. Robert Riser of Chi cago, accompanied by their wives and children have arrived in London after over a fortnight of harrowing exper iences in the theatre of war, and par ticularly between Liege and Aix-la- Chappelle. Their adventures included three days work in a hospital at Ver viers, Belgium, where German wound ed were being brought. The two doc tors left Vienna, Aug. 3 for Ostend. They got as far as Welkenraedt, Bel gium, where their train was stopped. They proceeded by wagon to Verviers, because a railroad tunnel had been blocked by the Belgiums. They re mained at Verviers until Aug. 11. Checks and paper money were utterly useless. The two Americans and their families found lodging in the hall of the Salvation Army. They had meals twice a day and enjoyed meat on alternate days. Prices were rising and food w r as scarce. On Aug. 11 they obtained passes from the German commander for Alx-laChapelle and were accorded free use of the German military wagons. In Solid Columns. Drs. Aurand and Rizer were just in advance of the German army on their way from Welkenraedt to Verviers. They noted soldiers on the road in solid columns. At Aix-la-Chapelle they saw troops marching by day and nihgt for three days. They estimated the number at 1.- 500,000, all with brand new equipment. The soldiers they treated in the hos pital at Verviers even wore new un der-clothes, they said. The Ameri cans saw thousands of German can non labelled “Nach Paris.” Kind to Them. The German soldiers were kind to to the American travelers, even fetch ing water for the women and buying milk for the children. The German authorities, however, refused to allow twenty English people to leave Ver viers. This party included several persons of wealth and some members of the nobility. They suffered greatly from want. The loyal populace of Aix-la-Cha pelle showered the passing Geriman troops wit food, cigars and cigarettes. They set out within easy reach buck ets of water in which they could wash their faces. The German soldiers said they in tended a peacable entry into Bergium and that they were paying for all the supplies used. They declared German troops had been maneuvering in Bel gium for a period of two weeks prior to the outbreak of hostilities. The Money to Lend On Improved City Property John W.

DON’T MISS ANY OF IT German attitude, was that their troops must make use of Belgium. They did not intend to disturb the people, but they would engage in sharp reprisals if attacked. Villages in Flames. The strange belief that Great Brit ain and Holland were at war caused a German commander to advise the Americans to avoid Holland. The same belief was prevalent at Alx-la-Oha pelle. Frederick Bruch Holz, who left Aix-la-Chapelle one day in advance of the others, drove to the Dutch frontier near Maastricht. Here some civilians had fired on the invaders and as a result three villages were in flames and the women were fleeing to the Holland side of the line in their night clothes with crying children at their heels.

Embassy to Americans is “Leave as Soon As You Can.” The Hague (via London). —Many Americans are loathe to leave the German capital, according to a news paper man who has just reached this city from Berlin. "Everything foreign has been erad icated from Berlin during the last fortnight,” he said. A shop in Fried richsstrasse, which was called the Prince of Wales, was well nigh demolished by a mob. Everywhere French signs were torn down. A restaurant in Kurfeurstein-Damm was destroyed by a crowd after the orchestra played a Russian air. No French words are allowed to appear anywhere, even on bills of fare. "I asked a waiter in a restaurant for a certain English sauce. He re plied angrily: ’We no longer serve that cursed English stuff.’ Didn’t Realize. Most American traveling in Ger many have not yet come to realize the real gravity of the situation. They seem to think the war a kind of play and cannot realize war in Germany is not like war in Mexico. “Several Americans were arrested at Mannheim because they were pho tographing a railway station and the American ambassador had the great est difficulty in obtaining their re lease. Ambassador Gerard is kept busy rescuing imprisoned Americans or helping others of his ’countrymen who need advice or money, "Always the advice of the embassy is ‘Leave the country as soon as you can.’ But the Americans with true Yankee obstinacy reply, 'why leave when we are comfortable here?’ Whereupon they are told, ’yes, but next week there may be no meat or bread or perhaps the Russians will SEASHORE LIMITED TRAIN TO TYBEE "Where Ocean Breezes Blow" Wk They All Have a Good Time as Tybee POUR MORE SUNDAYS Lv.
