 With the first of September draw ing near, the New Britain Red Cross chapter is beginning to wonder how it is going to fill it's allotment of 2,0OO sweaters and 5000 pairs of socks by that time. Only one fourth of the sock allotment has been shipped, and 400 sweaters. It is necessary that the assistance of every knitter in New Britain be secured the Red Cross feels, if the women of this city eX- pect to live up to their past reputa ton. The boys in the service must be equipped with warm clothing this coming winter, and it is up to the women of the country to see that they have sweaters and socks as well as hospital garments, etc. Those wish Ing to help will be furnished with material and instruction, if they call at Red Cross headquarters on Hunger Dnford court on asS week day.

Also we got 8 few gas shells fired at us. They landed in 8 valley below us so we really got none of it. We followed up the assaulting troops until they were relieved.
 But very few are left of the old 102d which left the States last Sep tember. One of our companies had only five men left, another has IS and so on down. Of course these are not all fatalities, but they are casualties and that number of men are out of the line, either temporarily or perma nently. You know a company is com posed of 250 men. Not one of the 102d has over 100 men left outside of the one l am in.

He made several direct hits on it and killed six Of our wounded boys and wounded many others. In the court yard he hit ali ambulance which got on fire and lighted up the entire To- cation.

 "The first thing I came across was a Ford, badly banged up. The owner who was our old friend, Al Schade of Arch street, I found was in a hospital suffering from shell shock. One of Fritzs Whiz- bangs or an Austrian SS had landed under his car. I found ration and water carts all strung out along the road. It was some sight We had steak for supper and about 50 of the boys were around eating, and another fellow and myself were frying the steaks Tor the others up on the line, when a Boche airplane came over, flying very low. He must have got a good picture of us for about an hour later we started to get the worst shelling we had yet received. All were Whiz- bangs, and believe me, they came thick and fast. We all tried to get into a small shell hole but couldn't all make it. I ran and made for another hole, an old machine gun pit. We had to stay in the holes for two hours with shrapnel hitting all around us and some even flying into the holes. When we came out our combat wagon was all rid dled with shrapnel You can inn agine our feelings. Our boys drove the Huns out the next morning and we also moved up.
 "All through the woods were dead Germans and our boys too. But be- lteve me, the bodies of those Germans did make a nausea ting odor. The next night another Roche plane came over and dropped all the bombs he had

That's the kind of baby to have drops right off without any fuss, as soon as his meal is finished. The baby nourished on Eagle Brand is a comfort to the whole household. For as every nurse and mother knows, sound sleep depends on proper feeding, especially in hot weather.

The state Aighvay Board has 10.
Gated three roads which are Of vital
interest 70 Wayne county.
Tho good news Was conveyed to
Attorney ". v. Ing Of this city, last
week By A. @. NcKibbiu, secretary OF
the Highway Commission.
The north and south st. Louis state
highway has been located from Pop.
lar Bi1f, BY way OF Taskee, Green
vile, Coldwater, Fredericktowu, and
on to st. Louis.
An east and west road viii run
from Piedmont through Patterson and
Hiram, and on east to Cape Girardeau.
This will probably cross the north
and south state road through this
county In the neighborhood OF
Bounds.
The other road which has been
located will connect with the Capital
State Highway, which leads from
JEFFERSON City to Poplar Bluff, at
Garwood, in Reynolds county, and
will run through Leeper and Pied.
mont to Glover, in Iron county.
With the location of these roads by
"S"so AAseuWoy OutlutUblOu I'LL
disputes by road factions in this coun-
ty should be at an end. Williams
Vile will connect with u state road at
Taskee, or should the Ozark Valley
Railway be removed the immediate |
construction OF a road from Williams
vile to Greenville on the railroad
right-of- way is almost a certainty.
The location of these roads gives
Wayne county about 80 miles Of state
road, and halt the cost OF their con-
struction will be paid by the state.
These roads should be the first to be
built.
1t has been suggested that the
roads be built by contract, the con.
tractor to accept bonds instead of
cash. This matter will probably be
brought up at the next meeting Of the
Good Roads Committee.
At any rate it is hoped that some
method will be devised so that the
work OF constructing the State High
ways a be commenced at ance.
