unfinished portion of the 1915 county
bridge contract, was awarded to the
Thor Construction Company. of Cedar

day afternoon. The contract was let
without advertising for bids, as each
culvert of the contract cost less than

liberty.

Of the supervisors, the culverts being
badly needed. This extra work made
it impossible for the contractors to fin

The supervisors Monday morally re-
leased Cole Bros. for this unfinished
portion because OF the reasons stated,
and because Of the advances in prices
of material it was felt that it would
be only fair to do so. Supervisor Lynch
alone voted against releasing them
The Thor Construction Company, 10

awarded a large bridge contract earlier
this spring.
The cuiverts range in size OF opening
from 3x3 to SKI feet. and the prices
at which they were let range from

TO start work on the contract in thirty
days and finish it within zoo days.

They did not treat US very we'll except when the American ambassador came to inspect the camp. We were well treated and well fed then, but after he had gone we lived on bread and water for a week to make up for the expense while he was there''
 Did you have to work?"
 "Only the French. The English and Russians did not have to work, but they built factory for making as- phyxiating gas shells and the French prisoners had to work in that fac tory"
 Did you work in it %
 T wrecked it three times" he re- piled. "It made 40,000 shells a week. The first time I damaged the furnace, and it took them four days to repair it. Then I spoiled the acid tanks and they ran for more than four weeks, making shells that were worthless be- fore they found it out The third time 1 wrecked the furnace again and it took three days to repair it. But then they began to suspect me, mon sieur. They watched me too closely. l could be of no more use there, and well, drew plan of the factory and escaped. It is for that plan that the government has given me fifteen days, leave before I join my regiment
 Was it hard to get away?"
 My wife did not want me to go. She was afraid they would capture me and shoot me"
 Your wife,"
 Yes" he replied. When I escaped from the camp I went to say good-by to my wife and children. My wife cried and begged me to go back and give myself up. She said I was sure to be captured and then I would be shot. But her sister came in while 1 was there. Her sisters husband and | his two brothers are fighting in the German army. One of his brothers has been wounded and has the Iron | Cross. And sne said that 1 waa right to go. She said that 1 was French, and it was right for me tc want to fight for France. She told my wife to let me go. So I kissed my wife and children and came back tc France.
 ''It was in June that escaped, aht they caught me just as I got to ths Swiss border and started to take ms back again. But I escaped once more and this time got here. IL took mt two months"
