WHEN THE BOYS RETURN.

Then Is the Time, Says This Mother,
For Flag Waving and Cheers.
Sept. 81, 1917.
To the Editor of the Herald:
I would like to say a few words in
regard to the men who are to leave for
Aver, Mass.
Let there be no parade. no whistle
blowing or bell ringing. It only adds
sorrow to the mothers aching heart
If we must send our boys let them go
quietly. Perhaps j. F. l.. has no one
to send. After the pitiful scenes of
last week who wants to see it? Let
us have the cheers and flag waving
when we have peace and our boys
return.

A SOLDIERS BRAVERY


Hour in Italy Because of His IN
excelled Heroism in Fight.
Italian Headquarters, Sept. 2S.-
1.-The soldiers of the Sassari brigade
can always walk proudly satisfied
through life, conscious of their hero
ism and sublimely accomplished duty
said General Capello. commander of
the Third Army, whose exploits in
the last advance on oMnte Santo and
the Bainsizza Plateau are known all
over the world.
Soldiers and officers wearing the
colors of the Sassari brigade are the
cynosure of all eyes, and many
people stop them to ask for details
of their experiences. The public
therefore, takes great interest in the
wonderful feats of the small, dark
eyed, hardy Daimondo Scintu, a Sar-
dinian belonging to the Sassari bril-
gade, who in the offensive of last
June covered himself with glory by
rescuing a wounded companion under
the deadly fire of the Austrian can
non. In the last advance Major Noed-
ing, to capture trench full of Aus
TRANS, selected Scintu and ten other
soldiers. The Sandman with cool
audacity entered the trench, crying to
his comrades, Forward for the
honor of Sardinia" They took fifty
five Austrians, but the Austrian COM
mander and his staff fought desper-
ately and one of them wounded Scin-
tn. This reused the latter's southern
temper to white heat, and, after fir
ing at his assailant, he sprang on him
and finished him with the bayonet, af-
ter which he killed the other officers
with a hand bomb.
Scintu is now lying in camp hos
pital slowly recovering and impatient
to return to the fighting fine.

While the war lasts-whetber tbo,

we must Increase our food supply
and because that Is as much q prob.

we must have more roads and bette,

No false ideas of economy should
