the survivors surrendered, Sergeant
J. p. Brown walked into the American
headquarters with 159 prisoners yes
terday and said he was sorry he was
unable to bring all, but four wounded
died enroute.
Brown narrowly escaped death
many times. His uniform was torn
with bullets. Early in the fighting his
pack was shot away by a shrapnel.
Brown became separated from his pla-
toon and encountered the captain of
another company. They decided to
charge four enemy machine guns.
They killed or captured the crew of
the first two and then Brown turned
the prisoners over to the captain go

two crews. Starting back alone
Brown encountered German trench.
He began firing. The Germans yelled
''Kamerad" and surrendered although

and he was using only "A pistol.

Here's again hoping that I may see
all of you, still wearing il, trust with
honor. But we cannot put on our
uniforms until the last day when we
leave for our ship. I have taken the
extra training to fit myself for a

Fell and Miss Kupers were in a car

to shoot himself. She grabbed the gun
from him and threw it in the road.
He got out, picked il up in his left
hand and shot himself through the
temple. Miss Kupers, thinking he was
dead, at once started running and
walking to town to give the alarm.
Reaching town a taxi was secured
which took her to the scene of the
military drill where Sheriff 7. ID. Tay-

called and with Coroner J. T. Brown
rushed to where young Fell had been

When they reached there the boy
was still living. though unconscious.
He was rushed us quickly as possible

Imperfect Shooting Laws.

We have federal laws protecting mi
gratory birds during certain periods,
and the government has established
many reservations for them. But the
laws of our various states are conflict
Ing and confusion often results, to
the detriment of the birds.
No better illustration of this can
be found than with the robin. In
the North it is protected all the year
around as a songster. 1t flies to the
North early in the spring and is
looked after and cared for until late
In the fall. 1t then goes South, where
several Of the states allow it to be
Killed, and it is actually sold in the
open markets of a number of South
ern cities.
But the general attitude of the peo.
pie toward birds is changing for the
better in all the states, South includ-
