The dead officer. Lieutenant SIEVE by

Oumo. had been killed during night
raid on the German trenches. Immedi-
ateiy afterwards another party had left
the French trenches for the purpose OF
bringing back the two bodies. but after
searching all night in vain. came back
in the morning empty handed.
During the course Of the forenoon
the French finally succeeded in locating
with strong field glasses the bodies
lying in the tall grass Just in front OF

TO recover them would be in full view
of the enemy.
AS it was certain that II the bodies
were left there TIL night. the Germans
would be able to ambush anyone who
sought TO recover them. Captain Garan

When you ask the average man

died, he will answer:
"Oh. we're doing a lot. We're get

It's an easy answer. But is II the
truth? What is getting along all

In war, there is no such thing an
getting along all right. There is only
one thing that is all right; that is
perfection.
Perfection is not human. Human

cost blood and suffering and human

DELEGATION ..CONFERS =
WITHlJUDGE DUSHEY
Early Construction Of Salem
Bridge Was Matter Under
Discussion

With the threat Of Polk county vir-
tually ringing in their ears that if the
present bill in the Legislature allowing
county courts TO go ahead and build
inter-eounty bridges if there is a dead.
lock or disagreement, passes the SEN
ate and becomes a law that County
Judge Kirkpatrick will take the mat
ter into the courts and delay the build
ing OF a bridge across the Willamette
river here unless the Marion county
court makes what is termed n coward
ly surrender, the meeting held yester-
day afternoon by a delegation of the
Salem Commercial club and County
Judge Bushey in the court house was
rather a blue affair, from the stand
point of getting early construction on
the bridge.
That Polk county residents and Mar
ion county business men were losing
time and money because of the demands
of the Polk county court was asserted
and action Of some kind was urged so
that facilities for transportation may
be found quickly.
1t was admitted that the relations
between the two county courts were
strained to such degree that it was
hopeless to think of an agreement be-
ing reached
The members of the commercial club
were informed after the matter had been
discussed and various suggestions offer
ed, by Judge Bushey that they had real
ly met in the wrong place and that if
they wished to find the solution of the
problem confronting them they should
have met in the state house to urge
the passage of the law allowing the
county courts to build bridges. They
were also informed that delegation
of Dallas people were already lobby
| ing to kill the measure and that if it
passed Judge kirkpatrick would carry
| it to the courts.
Attorney John MeNary thought the
people wanted ga bridge rather than
'no" bridge and that Judge Bushey
would be wise in accecding to Judge
kirkpatrick S demands. Judge Bushcy
was also urged to ''call'' Judge Kirk
patrick S hand as it was believed the
Polk county official would squirm out
of his promise to sign contract for a
concrete bridge tomorrow Other
members of the delegation thought it
was not good business to do business in
"poker game style.
Judge Bushey declared that aceeed
ing to the demands Of Judge Kirkpat
rick when Marion county pays two
thirds of the cost of construction would
be "cowardly surrender. He held
to the recommendation of the state
highway commission that steel bridge
was recommended as proper for this sit
uation and that concrete bridge was
not recommended because the founda-
ton of the hardpan was blue clay and
sand and likely to SHIT laterally with
