The fighsng between Reims and the Argonne forest has been of greater in ltensity than the terselN worded bulle
 tins of the French war office indicated. In the struggle near Beausejour north of the Reims Triancourt highway. one trench changed hands seven times. In numerous instances French and Ger man soldiers were found dead locked in each others arms. They had strug- gled to kill each other while conscious ness was left to them. There was a bitter hand to hand struggle in tine trenches north of the river Tourbe, a small sluggish stream flowing in a northeasterly direction to the Aisne, there the soldiers fought with any weapons that came to their hands, rifles. knives. swords. bayonets, clubs and even picks and shovels. which had been used for trench building. Scores of dead bodies were found without any bullet wounds upon them-F,X.

The city, in keeping with past precedent. will doubtless look to the matter of placing the streets in a cleanly condition but they cannot assume the same function in respect to household premises and this is where the work is most need ed. While the City Health Officer has issued warning 10 householders con- corning the matter. the all apparent necessity should in itself be a sutn- eient urge to all who take pride in their surroundings Nothing So de- tracts from the appearance of town as unsightly accumulation of rub hish. tin cans and other refuse scatter ed in promiscous confusion and such are painfully apparent in almost any direction one cares to wander.

She is sitting in chair thinking of the past. The
future holds little for her; but memories of the days that

In fancy she sees her little tot. She watches his every

recalls with pleasure the sacrifices made to give her boy
chance But her boy is now far away in the big city
and the mother alone
The boy is good to his mother He provides her with
every luxury; and he thinks she has everything she
wants But he never knows of her heart yearnng for
the days when he was young. TO her the boy will
always be just-BOY He VII. never be grown up. and
anything that concerns her boy affects her deeply to-
day as it did when he a child.
What she wants more than anything else is something
that will more wildly recall her boy mind for instance,

letters ceased to often they might, whose
visits became less and less frequent and though
the Boy has been changed by environment and

still as strong and pusating as ever. Don't be sorry
after she gone that you did not pay her attention
Give her all the pleasure possible to the few years yet
remaining, though you fully repay her.

always be her little boy Send photograph of your
self back to the home town. to the old mother Il will

Delight the heart of that mother, who is always your

E. B. Huey Meets Death When
Team Runs from Grain EIeva-
tor at Pocasset; Lingers
but Short Time

e. B. Huey, a highly respected citi-
zen of Grady county was accidentally
killed at Pocasset at late hour yes
terday afternoon.
Mr., Huey was delivering corn at the
elevator and was in the act Of dump
ing his wagon, so reports say, when
his team became frightened and
started to run. When the team lunged
forward Mr.. Huey was thrown from
his seat out upon the double trees.
From marks upon him it is thought
one of the mules he was driving
kicked the unfortunate man upon the
head He was hurled from the double
trees upon the ground in front of and
Immediately under the wheels of his
heavily loaded wagon. The fright
ened mules dragged the wagon across
Mr.. Huey's chest, Utterly crushing the
life out of him.
The victim of the accident was re-
moved to nearby residence and med
ieal aid summoned, but was so seri-
ously injured that skill was useless to
save his life and after lingering for
little over an hour he died.
Sid Anderson of the undertaking
firm Of Claycomb & Anderson was
summoned over the phone and went
up to Pocasset last night and prepared
the body for burial
Mr.. Huey was about fifty-three
years Of age and is survived by a wife
and one or two grown children. He
will be buried tomorrow afternoon in
the cemetery at Arcadia.
