SEWING IN RUSSIA. s I Canadian Woman is With the Red | Cross in the Caucasus, { Many Canadian women are serving the Empire in foreign countries, but few have been called to do their bit in such remote and alien surrpund- ings as has Miss Gertrude Nicol, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Nicol, of Vancouver, who, before going to that city in its early days were resi- dents of Niagara Falls. Miss Nicol is working under the Red Cross bariner in Russia, at Alexandrople, a snidll town in the Caucasus Mountains be- tween Batum and Kars, very close ito the Turkish frontier: At the outbreak of the war, Miss | Nicol, who has spent a number of | ing in Russia, and was near Tiflis. | The-difficulties which at that time | were 'placed in-the way of travelers were almost insurmountable, and she promptly decided that instead of making futile endeavours to reach England she would stay where she was and direct her energies toward fitting herself for service, and she at! once entered a hospital in Tiflis, where she tcok a coursé in nursing. She is an exceptionally clever lin- guist, and during-her sojourn in the | country had been studying the lan- guage in which she bad become fairly proficient, so that, although her ex- aminations were in Russian, she pass- | ed them successfully, a very difficult feat, as anyone who knows anything 'of the language will understand. For the past three months Miss Nicol has beea working under the | Russian Red Cross Society and was stationed in Tiflis until lately, when she was sent '0 Alexandrople. Writ- ing of her first impressions there, she Says: "Alexandrople is a queer little place, as much like one of our prairie towns as it is possible for an Orien- tal town to be like a Western one, It is situated on a plateau in the moun- tains at an altitude of fourgthousand feet. The population is composed al- most entirely of Armenians, but the | military element is, of course, Rus- sign. The barracks, which is known | as 'Cossacks' Post," is a short dist-| town. There are thirty-eight buildings already in use | and. still many more to be fitted up. | As this is a receiving point we get our patients direct froiy the front and will have beds for three thou-| sand. There are many poor fellows who have nervous and mental trou- bles. Those who are wounded are kept here until they are cured of their physical ills and then sent off to | sanatoria or asylums, and the others are sent-on at once to Tiflis in trains especially designed for such cases. "We live in the most primitive fashion, not much better than the sol- diers themselves. The hospital build- stone and are most depressing in ap- | pearance. OQur room, or rather cell, for it has iron bars across the win-} dows, contained, when we arrived, two beds 'made of woodén.slats and mattresses stuffed with hay, and a] wooden bench. "After much effort we | succeeded in getting a tin water can! and a little wooden pig trough to! serve as a wash basin, also a table and a very unsteady lamp. Our doc- | tor, whe came with us, and who is] a very clever and resourceful woman, | has ordered comforts for us up from | Tiflis. They are expected to arrive to-| day, and will include camp beds, new | mattresses, a wash stand, and even | nj Canadian Courier. {almost felt ashamed to ask them to | comes a time in most lives when the GAVE PURSE OF GOLD {10 CAPTAIN THE REV. 8.

He referred to the generous reception given to his wife, a stranger brought to them. He release him so soon, but the diving call to go forth where he could be of more service meant that no sacrifice was too great. Christianity and the Christian Church must do everything possible at this time. W. F. Nickle, M.P., .said there man must do his duty as he sees it or be forever ashamed of himself Cap- tain Compton was right in following the dictates of his conscience in giv- ing his 'services. St, Andrew's peo- | ple would always be found, unselfish | in giving their best. There has | been some disappointment to us in! the war so far, but there was that, too, for the enemy, Canada, which ! three years ago hesitated in giving thirty-five million dollars, was now | facing ten times that amount, and giving thousands of its best and brav- | fi est in the case of outraged civiliza- tion. While the men were going forward to fight, the women, like | Mrs. Compton, bore their heart- burnings too. ! Rev. Dr. Macgillivray, Moderator | of the General Assembly, said a few words, in which he regretted his age, as he would like to go too. He com- plimented Captain Compton on nis | high sense of duty in giving up the | pastorate of such a good church for' the common cause. "God speed the ending of the war and give the enemy {a good thrashing," he concluded. Prof. John Dall and others also spoke. Miss McLelland and Aithur Craig gave several songs. Light | Tefreshmants were served. | -------- MRS.
