4 Night On Guard Duty
By Private Arthur B. Andrews, Fort
 0gIeih0rpe, Ga

"We were all lined up after our days work. The Sergeant pointed out l2 men for guard duty. We took our blankets and overcoats with us to the guard tent. Someone built roar ing fire in the stove. There were four guards on each shift. One guarded the hay, another the oats the third the rope fence and 1 WAS assigned the rear entrance of the corrals. All SC med still at first until my ears became ae- customed to the night sounds. l heard a tree creaking in the wind and an other guard whistling some plaintive melody. Bye and bye heard band playing in the distance. To my great surprise 1 heard tune that we had often sung at school. It was selec lion from Faust. It made me think of home and schooldays, which seemed far in the past.
 Soon it was time for relief and 1 went to bed for four hours. 1 slept fitfully. The night grew colder and colder. hen 1 went out again at twelve o'clock the cold pierced through and through. I kept walking to keep warm. The wind WAS just stirring and no sounds broke the stiffness ex- cept an occasional fight among the horses for the warmest place or the last of the hay or oats.
 At two o'clock 1 was tagain relieved and went to bed until five o'clock. We tn en fed the horses finishing our night on guard.
 A few words about headquarters company. It is composed of men who do work not especially etfecting any one company. It is a new organiza tion. Up to a few months ago the procedure was to select some men from one company and let them do the
 work for week and then new men
 would be given chance to show what they could do. This system proved wasteful and the permanent organiza- ton was formed New recruits were placed in this company. The phono. grnph has just been repaired so good- bye"

ROBERT RUST
 FOUND DEAD
Pomfret Mans Body Discovered in Gar
 age at His Pomfret Home
Was Working Under Car When Blood
 Vessel Burst

Robert Rust, for the past eighteen years superintendent of the estate of Mrs. Caroline Hoppin, Pomfret, died suddenly last Saturday evening, His body was found under his automobile out in the garage by his wife when she went to see what detained him, Cerebral hemorage was the cause of death.
 Mir Rust went to the garage in the evening to blow up the tires of his automobile and look over the car. Mrs Rust thought that her brother, William Barron, a foreman on the es. tate, VI as with him and did not pay much attention to his absence as she thought they were talking together.
 Ata late hour she decided to Ego out and see what detained the men and when she opened rhe door saw the 1 body of her husband under the car. Dr. Overlook, medical examiner, was summoned and pronounced death due to natural causes although 1t was al first thought that Mir. Rust might have been s>phixated from the gas 1 fumes of the cur. It is supposed that a rush of blood 10 the head while he wa bending over caused a blood yes sel to burst.
 MT. Rust's death was shock to the people of Pomfret and 10 his many friends in Putnam. He was an eX- ceptionally healthy appearing man and when the story of his death was heard in Putnam Sunday morning | people who knew him could not credit 1t. He was of a genial disposition and made friends easily.
 MT Rust was born in Abe rdeenshire Scotland, August goth, 1871, and was therefore 46 years old. He was the son of MT. and Mrs. David Rust. He came to the United States about twenty.two years ago and for eighteen years had lived in Pomfret.
 Mir. Rust was married at Christ church, Pomfret, October 2slh, 1895, to Miss Isabella Barron, also a native of Aberdeenshire, who came to this country 10 marry the man who bid her good bye on the other side prom ising 10 send for her.
 Mir. Rust's father died April End of last year but his mother still lives in Scotland. Besides his wife and mother he leaves eight children, eight broth CTS and eight sisters, most of whom lived in this country.
 Mir. Rust was & member of Putnam Lodge of Mssons, Woodstock, and of Putnam Lodge, B. P. o. k. He was liked by all who knew him and was always doing little kindnesses for his friends. He was & fast friend of Percy l.. Waterman, who died just s year ago this month.
 The funeral service was held al Christ church, Pomfret at II o'clock Wednesday morning, Rev. Frank II Bigelow officiating. The Masons took charge al the grave and the masonic ritual was used. A delegation of Put. nam Lodge of Elks was also in attend snce.

"Everythino Is Lovely"

As an instance that slogans of the marines do catch on.a Colonel Me Lemore reports that he offered pas sage from the suburbs to a certain town to Il neighbor--an irishman.
 He asked him 10 what army he be- longed and when he replied "To the Marines" he thought for moment and then said. "The Marines are here and everything is lovely" which is at any raie free translation Of their pest known slogan.

There are SAB lam guages and dialects spoken among the blacks of Africa. but only a few of them written.-Christian Herald.

Round Up l. w. W..

Sheriff Sullivan of Clearwater
county arrived in Moscow Wednes-
day night with over twenty men,
bers of the l. w. ". arrested in
the Elk River district. These men
were taken to Bovill by train and
from there were hauled overland on
a motor truck.
These added to the 81 brought in
by motor truck Tuesday night, most
of them from Elk River, practically
clean up the l. w. WIS in the two
counties. 1t was estimated in the
beginning that there were 200 in
the two counties but most of these
have taken their departure since
the raid began. There are now
about 70 members informed in the
county Jail and fair grounds at
Moscow and this number represents
practically all that are now in the
two counties.
AS result of work done by the
sheriffs and their deputies. the Pot
latch mill is again in operation and
it is not believed that the l. w. w.
members will have the temerity to
start trouble again for some time
to come.
Sergeant Abendroth, in command
at the detention camp, has been
compelled to adopt certain rules.
After this visitors will not be per-
mitted within the enclosure. or

the prisoners must be inspected at
the Office of the com mandant before

Conversation with the men will
be permitted only in the presence

is first obtained from the proper
authority.
