An American Red Cross canteen established in the ruins of a village evacuated by the Boches in their retreat from the St. Mahiel salient. The Red Cross outpost here was set up in the only house with a partial roof left in the town. The two women in the picture are Miss Scott and Mrs. Farwell of Chicago. They carry all of their equipment in one motor truck and follow the advance, pitching their outpost at whatever point in the battle zone offers the greatest opportunities for service. The man in the white apron at the extreme left is an army cook, who during his off hours came in the Red Cross to assist in cooking doughnuts. This Red Cross outpost served an average of 10,000 men a day with hot coffee, chocolate, doughnuts, biscuits and jam, and sandwiches
