How 1t Was Done

By crawling flat on his face and ta-
king advantage of all natural cover
Garandeau was able to keep out of the
range of the Germans who could neith-
er fire at him or hurl hand grenades
without exposing themselves to the
deadly machinegun barrage with
which the French were covering his
worm-like progress.
Within an hour Garandeau, after
reaching the body of Seve and tying
it to his leg, had successfully drag
ged it back into the French line
Inspired by his exploits volunteers
Immediately came forward and insist
ed on being allowed to go after the
body of Ollmo in the same manner.
Sergeant Cretet and three soldiers
were finally granted permission and
before s in the evening they too re-
turned to the French trenches drag
ging the other body tied to their legs.
simultaneously with the decoration
of Garandeau today with the Legion of
Honor, the sergeant and soldiers who
in the exploint received
also the CroiX de Guerre.

When Waterloo Came

Up to the seventh inning all had
been going we'll for the local repre-
sentatives of the Chamber of Coo
merce, but at this stage of the game
with the score three to one in favor
of Moscow, Inman, who up to that
time had been pitching gilt edged ball,
weakened, the first three men up get
ting singles, and he was replaced by
Neidig, who coming into the box cold,
was unable to settle down to good
work until eight runs had crossed the
plate and the game was lost beyond
all hope of recovery. 1t was in this
inning that Sanger, who considering he
has neglected the gentle pastime of
baseball for the more enervating prac-
tice of the law, pitched a remarkable
game for the visitors, drove out a sin
gle to deep center that scored three of
the Pullman runners.
