These bullets, she explained, exploded: as soon as they penetrated the body, and in many cases left terri wounds. She mentioned, however, that the percentage of deaths from wounds was very low, owing mainly to the improvement in modern sur- gery and the splendid condition of the men before they left- for. the front. "The French soldiers," said Miss Lindsay, "were a revelation to us. They are a very fine type of men, and 'all appeared very 1, Even when suffering from bad wounds they seemed satisfied 'with everything that was given them, and never complained or grumbled. They seemed imbued with the, spirit of victory, and even in the darkest n days of the war when the Germans were 80 near Paris, there was not the slightest panic among the French." # LE Aa Asked as to how long she thought the war would last, Miss Lindsay said she did not think it eould' last beyond next autumn; and¥she did not see how there veuld possibly be another winter campaign. The general feeling in Frante red to be that 'the war would be over by the autumn of this year. : "Miss Lindsay spoke in high terms of the condition of the hospitals, but: remarked that. at times a heayy res ibility = rested upon those in charge of the institutions.
