She Can Knit Two Socks
at Once on Same Needles

Portland, Ore, April 20.-"knitting a
double sock" or the art of knitting two
pairs OF socks on the same needles at
the same time, has been demonstrated
at Red Cross headquarters here by Miss
Rose Baldwin. A number OF other knit
ters are said to have been favorably
impressed with the scheme and are
trying 1t out. One sock is knitted in
side the other. several stitches being
taken alternately on each.
Miss Baldwin declares ii as Just as
easy to knit her double sock" as to
knit a single one, that it may be done
in nearly the same time and that the
result achieved is just double. She
explains that little experience Is re-
aGircd to knit the new way.

LATEST GRANT SIX

Is Decided Departure From
Sameness of Auto Styles.

The great similarity of appearance
which prevails among medium priced
motor cars will disappear during the
next four years and there will event.
ually be as great a rivalry for distinc-
tive lines in popularity priced cars as
there is among the higher priced cars,
is the opinion Of George $. Waite. gem

Car corporation.
1.-The next step in the evolution of
the motor car is artistic says Mr..
Waite. 1.-THE engineering and mechani-
cal development necessarily came first
and appearance was secondary. Now
that the engineering features have been
pretty thoroughly worked out and
standardized, rivalry between manu-
facturers must inevitably take the form
Of producing more artistic more eye
pleasing cars.
1.-THE latest Grant Six is an example
Of this. 1t is a decided departure from
the sameness which has prevailed
among medium priced cars. We aimed
10 give the Grant Six lines which would
he both graceful and pleasing and yet
go individual that the Grant six could
not be mistaken for any other car In
changing the body finish from conven-
,ional black to rich olive green with
white stripping on the louvres and

dency, that toward the more general

CHAPTER XIII.

After a march of 10 kllometers we
reached the town Of Jametz. Here
everything was offered us by the In
habItants. We were treated with cof.
fee. milk and meat. We went en early
the next morning and In the evening
arrived at Damvillers. where we heard
that we were about five kilometers be-
hind the firing line. The same evening
we advanced to the little village Of
Wavrille, which was our destination
We took up our quarters in house
which had been abandoned By Its In
habitants. We were attached to the
Ninth reserve division and the next
morning went to our position. Fifteen
Of Us were assigned to duty with an
infantry company. On the entire line.

Night now came, yet no sleep nor
rest was Ia sight. No one knew how
much farther we would have to retire
before there would be a respite. The
unfamiliar surroundings indicated to
us that we were not returning over the
road which we had traversed when, as
vlCtors, we marched to the Marine.
With this and similar thoughts, hour
after hour passed. Some OF us ran
elong, others actually walked In their
sleep. Our boots were filed with wa
ter, vet we had to keep on. Thus the
night passed.
The next morning troops of the
main army were placed in the rear
guard. They formed long columns
which they opened to let us pass
through, after which they closed
ranks. We gave a sigh OF relief, for
we were at last free of hostile artll-
lery fire. After marching about five
more hours. we Joined company Of
infantry which fortunately had saved
its field kitchen. 1t was not quite
dark when we reached the village.
Here we were billeted in order to
get as much rest as possible. But we
all knew that we could rest only as
long as the rear guard was able to
keep back the enemy. We were placed
In the village school. Because Of the
shortage of provisions we were al
lowed to use our timed supplies, but
none of us had any left. This consist
ed of some meat and bareback. It had
long since been eaten up and so we
were compelled to lie down with our
hunger still unsatlsfied.

large. Most OF the men killed were
shot through the head, the trench pro-
tecting the remainder Of their bodies.
Firing increased in intensity as
night fell. Although nothing could be
seen we continued firing all the time
because we thought this would prevent
the enemy from making any attacks.
Through the nights munitions and ma
terial were brought up and new men
arrived. Great quantities Of sandbags
were sent us, which were filed and
used as a protection against bullets.
The pioneers were relieved toward
morning and gathered In a farmyard
behind the firing line. The farm had
been spared by the cannon, and even
all the stock remained. This booty
was soon to be consumed. Several
hundred soldiers came and a wild hunt
ensued for ducks, chickens, geese, pig
cons, etc. About uye hundred of these
were caught, after which everybody
began cooking. Not far away so cows
and heifers were seized and turned
over to the field kitchens. Hay and
grain We're carried away, even the
strawstacks and barns were torn down
and the lumber used for firewood. In
a few hours a beautiful farm had be-
come a ruin and the proprietor a beg
gar. / had seen the owner in the
morning, but he had suddenly disap-
peared with his wife and children, and
nobody knew where he was.
The next night we were sent into
the trenches again. There was little
to do. so we talked with the men who
had REINFORCED us from the interior
of Germany. They knew absolutely
nothing Of our retreat from the Marine
and were astonished when we pictured
to them the events Of the last few
days.
The following morning we left the
trench before daybreak and vent into
quarters at Cernay-en-Dormois. We
were biIleted In the middle of the viii
lage In an abandoned house. Our field
kitchens failed to arrive, so we pre-

pared ourselves a meal Of fowl and
whatever else we discovered. When
ever anyone espied a chicken there
were twenty men racing for 1t. Toward
evening long provision trains arrived,
as well as fresh troops. They went
to the front In long columns and re-
lieyed the exhausted men.
Soon the whole village was crowded
with soldiers. After a rest Of two days
the regular nightly pioneer service was
resumed. Every night we were sent
to the front-llne trenches to build wire
obstacles. The Preach found us out
by the noise required to set up the
posts, 10 that We had fresh losses
almost every Night. We completed the
task Of setting up barbed wire entan-
clements In the sector assigned to Us
In about fourteen days. During this
period we rested BY day. but st night
we went out regularly. But eur rest

this means a large, fat fee for the al
torney or claim agent.
Congressman Harold Knutson Of
Minnesota read letter In the house
showing that certain attorneys had
been in correspondence with one of his
constituents in regard to the back pay
of soldier who died in France The
amount was $780, not very large, but
the Washington attorneys wanted to
get rake-off Of 90 per cent, which
would mean that the relatives Of the
soldier would receive $l60 instead Of
5000, and these attorneys would get
$40 for services of no account what
ever, as In due course Of time the pay
ment would be made to the estate OF
the soldier, to his next of kin, or who
ever was designated as the person to
whom 1t should be paid. Congress-
man McClintlc Of Oklahoma also pre-
sented letters showing that the same
sort OF a game was attempted upon
soldiers from his state.
1t is not likely that the exposures Of
Knutson and McClinde will have the
effect OF preventing victims from be-
Ing held up by attorneys and claim
agents. but 1t may result In deterring
many people from becoming dupes OF
these leeches In Washington who would
pick the bones of dead soldier and de-
prive his relatives Of their Just due in
order to fatten their own pockets.

There Is q possibility Of water
power legislation. judging from the
discussion that took place In the
house before the adjournment, al
though the adjournment has tended to
postpone action on the bill. But 1t
does seem as If the special committee
on water power had prepared meas
ure which might get through. AT all
events less opposition was manifested
to 1t than to any other such bill that
has ever been presented. This was
noticeable In the discussion of the
measure by Western men. AS a gen.
eral thing In the case Of representa-
tives Of states where there are vast
forest reserves, Indian reservations
and other large bodies Of land with
held from development and settlement,
there is nearly always strong opposi-
ton to any waterpower legislation
satisfactory to the representatives Of
Eastern states. Western men as
general rule claim that the resources
Of state. even II they are on public
lands, are to large extent state prop
erty and ought to be handled and de-
veloped independently of the national
government. But the large majority
Of members OF the house have never
acquiesced in that view,
At present there Is considerable
doubt as to what will happen when
the bin reaches the senate. The bin
now pending In the house Is a substi-
tute for one which passed the senate
and was agreed to with some reluc-
lance on the part of Western senator's,
and the changes which have been
made may make It obnoxious to them
to such an extent as to cause them 10
use all possible efforts to defeat 1t.
The condition In the senate possibly
will make water-power legislation
doubtful at this session.

consideration Of various bills on the

CHAPTER XII.

We were once more aroused q
eleven o'clock that night, and with the
utmost haste made ready to resume
our march. The night was pitch dark
and the rain continued. At daybreak
we passed the city Of st. Menehould.
This had not been harmed. From here
we turned to the east, closely pressed
by the French and In the afternoon we
reached ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Once
more we managed to get rest of sew
eral hours. Toward evening we pro-
ceeded again and maintained forced
march through the whole night. We
were now more exhausted than ever,
yet could not halt.
The rain had stopped before ten
O'Clock In the morning at which hour
we left the road and made camp.
There was a general sigh of relief, for
this long-continued, wearing retreat
had brought our troops into a state
now become uncomfortable. We began
to dig ourselves In. Before our
trenches were even half completed
literal hailstorm of shrapnel fell
among us. Our losses were so great
that II became impossible to remain.
We received orders to retire at once.
We marched over the fields until dark,
when we began once more to dig in.
We were now near the village of Ger
nay-en-D ormols. II was pitch dark and
= heavy fog lay over everything. OF
the enemy we knew nothing. With the
utmost silence and speed we dug our
selves in deeply, stopping frequently
TO listen as hostile raiding parties APP
preached, only to disappear quickly.
Here we received our first re-
endorsements. They arrived In long
columns In the darkness. All were
fresh troops-most Of them reserves.
The majority wore blue uniforms. This
as well as the nature of their equip
ment, indicated to us that they had
been hastily fitted out and transported.
None Of them had ever heard the
whistle Of bullet and many asked
anxlously whether 1t was dangerous
here. They brought numerous ma
chine guns, and In an instant we mao
everything prepared for defense.
At daylight the French began the at
tack. They made several onslaughts
throughout the day but without sue
cess, for our re-enforcements were
large.
No one realized at this stage Of the
hattie that II was the beginning Of
murderous, exhnustlng struggle for po-
sitlcna. &c
We were to fight here from the same
