Tells of Vivid Trench Experiences at Battle Front in France
FRANCE THANKS AMERICA
Grateful for Food, Clothes and Supplies Given by U. S.
A close large picture of the actual happenings in the European trenches was given by Prof. D. L. Patterson, of the department of history, yesterday afternoon to an audience and balcony of Fraser Chapel. This talk was based on his experiences as a war correspondent last summer in France.
Professor Patterson described his trip through the French trenches in a manner so vivid and detailed that he could barely see what they were actually taking the trip with him. The trenches visited by Mr. Patterson were in the vicinity of Rheims, France, where the first battles took place within 20 yards of the German line.
COULD SEE ENEMY
"From the town of Rheims the white chalk trenches of the Germans were barely visible," explained Mr. Patterson. "Rheims itself, after it had been shelled by the Germans in the early part of the war, looked like a half-ruined Pompeii with its beautiful cathedral roofs and still greased gashes in the masony and fire had cracked the massive stone structures, changing their color from a white to a gray. Practically every shell that had been fired by the Germans into Rheims tore a hole into some building, due to the fortress-like construction of the town. Even now the Germans have been living in France Sunday just to show the French that they are in the vicinity of the city."
"In the fields, not two miles from the German trenches, old men and children were working with apparently no fear from the German shell.
DESCRIBES TRENCH LIFE
In describing trench life, Mr. Patterson told of the construction of the trenches, of the devices of war with which they were equipped, of the dugouts, of the soldiers live, and of the strategy practiced by the French in the trenches.
Professor Patterson said, in commenting upon the attitude that the French were taking in the present European war, "The French realize that they are in the war for a long time. They have seen their enemy. The men are sober, but not melancholy. They realize the magnitude of their undertaking and are going at it in an organized manner. During the early part of the war the French realized that they could stop the enemy and they gained still more confidence in themselves when they pushed the enemy back, and they are now confi-

"No Frenchman of any class feels any hostility towards the United States, in fact their feelings are only petitions," he says. "ributions of munitions, supplies, clothes and food which we have sent them. Many of the French, however, are of the belief that we, Amoricans, are interested in the war as we should be."
Prof. A. M. Wilcox, of the department of ancient languages, will deliver the next lecture, Thursday afternoon, at the University of Alabama as a Factor in the European Crisis."
Emerson said, "The progress of Religion is steadily to its identity with morals." Many men today have come to the conviction that we are religious persons and not moral. The there are other things in religion that which gives it life and without which it is a dead shell is morality. No matter what you believe you are not religious unless your actions measure up to the standard set forth in the sermon, "Religion and Morality." Jesus means more to the world
