HOW IT FEELS TO
BE BURIED ALIVE
British Officer Relates a Hair
Raising Experience.
THOUGHT He WAS BLINDED
Volunteers to Carry Message From
First-Lihe Trenches to Headquar-
tiers and Is Buried by Explosion of
SheII-Rescued by Chance and
Wounded on Way to Hospital.

"Have you ever been buried alive
ence. 1t is only by the merest luck
that l am able to tell you what it
feels like"
Lieutenant -, the British avia-
tor, was talking. The experience he
related was one he had while he was
still in the infantry.
''We were rather hard-preSSed up
in the first line, and it was decided
that some one must carry a message
through the communicating trenches
to headquarters. All the officers vol
unteered for the service. Four of US
were chosen by lot. The Boches were
Smelling the communicating trenches
with hellish fire, so it looked like
dangerous business. The four of US
were to take different routes through
the trenches on the chance that one
of us would get through; the others
well, good luck to them.
Take Different Routes.
1.-Two of us were to go to a certain
point, where the communicating
trenches divided in " There we
were to separate, one taking the
right-hand trench, and one the left.
Chick Dalrymple, a boy from To
ronto, went with me. He waved to
me as we separated.
81 started off, crouching low in the
trench. Before 1 had gone very far
there was a flash. Then l didn't know
anything for a while. Dalrymple got
to headquarters so did one of the
other men. They saw that 1 was
missing and thought probably 1 had
got it on the way.
"Dalrymple was ordered to take a
company of men up through the trench
through which 1 had passed for the
relief of the men holding the front
line. All the way he kept a sharp eye
out for me. Near the point where we
had separated he came upon a great
pile of dirt in the trench. 1t was a
matter of taking his men over the top
of it, which would have been as dam
gerous as taking them through an
open field, or else having the mound
removed.

FAMILY WEIGHS OVER TON
Mother Has Sent One to School for
Each Year for Long Time.

When Mrs, G. T. Lowe of Swanton,
O., kissed her youngest, Richard, and
started him toddling off to school the
other morning just twenty-four years
had elapsed since she started her first
yoGngster for school; and not a year
has passed during that time that she
has not had one to five children at
tending school. She is the mother of
fourteen children.
Both parents weigh over 200 pounds
each and the grown children weigh
from IT'S to 200 pounds each, with one
exception. The entire family tips the
scales well above a ton.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lowe were married in
Henry county when the mother was
sixteen years old, and the children are
all about two years apart. They moved
here four years ago.

"There was no one within a mile

ment. When they dug me out they
found mes unconscious. I had re-
ceived three broken ribs, a broken
breast bone and a broken nose. They
fastened a couple of tunics across two
rifles and were carrying me to the
hospital on this imprOvised stretcher

u. S. IS INDEPENDENT
OF GERMAN CHEMICALS
Advance in Three Years Equiva-
lent to Progress of Ger
many in Fifty Years.

BY far the largest and most COM
p1ete exhibition of its kind ever held
in the world is open to the public in
ace. 1t is the third annual exposition
of chemical industries. In the exposi-
ton at the palace is presented the
greatest collection of exhibits of chem
zeal industries ever made. 1t really
represents the lifting of the veil of
mystery that has heretofore surround
ed the chemists work, and the dis
closure of the secrets of the manufac-
ture of gunpowder, paper and pulp, as
phalt, fertilizer, dyestuffs and numer-
Gus other products of the chemists in
genuity.
To large extent the European war
is responsible for the exposition, which
represents the efforts that have been
made to meet emergencies resulting
from the lack of products formerly
shipped to this country from foreign
laboratories. That the American chem
list has succeeded in effectively prOduc-
ing some of the things for which sew
eral years ago we looked to the Eu-
rOpean markets is now generally
granted. The displays at the palace
emphasize this fact. During the last
three years leading chemists and sci
entists declare, this country has made
advances in chemical industries equiv
alent to the progress made in Germany
in fifty years, and America, it can now
be said, is absolutely Independent of
foreign countries in this field

Among the nurses assistants is Prin-

whose parks, movies and public places
is only $1,000 At this place the war
camp community recreation fund COM
mfttee plans to spend over $4,000 in
clubs and auditoriums needed for the
entertainment of soldiers in the nearby
community.
The report points out what has been
done at the Newport Or. ~ Naval
Training station. There the local Red
Gross committee joined with the COM
munity recreation fund in opening a
fine clubhouse for the three or four
thousand naval reservists and six thou
san seamen apprentices in training.
An old estate of 1877 acres was secured.
The old three-story house was convert
ed into a clubhouse with pool and bill
lard tables, piano, writing and reading
material and lunchrOOm. At the pri-
vate beach near by there was good
bathing, which hundreds of the men
enjoyed every afternoon. Baseball
diamonds, tennis grounds and volley
ball courts were provided, and in the
evenings entertainments were given,
all of which were attended by thou
sands of men. Although the attend
ance at this Newport Navy Recruits
club on some days was as much as six
thousand, it is recorded as splendid
tribute to the men enlisted in the navy
that in four months nothing about the
house or grounds was destroyed or car
ried away. William f. Ashe of Pitts
burgh was the community organizer
who started this movement at New
port for the Playground and Recrea-
ton Association of America.
"community Sings"
Mr.. Manning in his report describes
some of the remarkable and successful
community sings" which have been
held at Syracuse, N. Y, and elsewhere.
AS to the success of this sort of sol
diers' amusement, Spencer Gordon,
worker at Syracuse, re-
ports: Between five and six thousand
eager men participated with the Com
munity chorus in the most inspiring
evening have ever enjoyed. The COM
officer came forward after the
singing and said it was the greatest
thing he had ever listened to.
The aim in every community, accord
ng to the report is to make the sol
lier or sailor acquainted with families
Or individuals who will be his friends.
Activities for entertaining the men in
dude auto rides, Sunday dinners, ath-
etc and field events, dances, enter
at clubs, theaters and NOV
ng picture houses, the permission
o use swimming pools in clubs, of bill
lard and poolrooms and other club |
acilities-in fact, to provide for the |
enlisted man every form of good recre-
Ition which the civilian enjoys.
''In giving themselves to the boys
n uniforms" said Mr.. Manning, in
his report, "citizens and
titles are finding their own souls and,
fter the war, a new spirit of citizen
hip will prevail"

"A part of the shed was used as chick
