latest stunt. II is making me left
handed, too"
And then every once in while
you run across boy who seems
just naturally mean. He won't even
nod to you il you go by. He dosen't
want anything, doesn't care u read
or chat or smoke, and will just
manage to grumblc out some com
plant about the food or his pay
or things in general. Such man
is sore spot wherever he happens
TO be. The men who are in cots
near him get shy and restrained and
finally they ask to be transferred,
until finally he is lett alone. In my
hospital there is that sort OF boy
and I'm trying to study out way
OF becoming friendly with him. lie
is not seriously wounded and will be
back in the service in a lew weeks,
but unless he gets his ideas cleared
up bit he will be as much a drag
at the front as he is in hospital, |
should think. There he lies
near the door with empty cots on
each side of him, except when there
is a new convoy in and all the other
cots are filled. lie could easily be
up and about, but he refuses to
move, and the ward sister says that
the doctor will have to send two
to take him out OF bed.
He eats everything he is given
greedily and puts in more complaints |
than any other patient in the ward .
When the nurse told me this She
added:
1T is the strangest thing. He
is absolutely unlike any other OF
your boys. He is the first Amer
can who has not been nice to us
md who is not Jolly and helpful in

Wedding Approaching

The boys themselves are doing
all they can to help things along.
There is going to be an interna-
tional marriage in one ward lust as
soon as certain boy who came over
year or two before the others can
get fixed up for the event. This boy
met a girl on his first Blighty leave
and they decided to get married
and when the war was over he was
going to take his little bride back
home. Then he returned to the front.
Now he is back again with both
legs gone and his right hand.
And the little girl? Well. she is
a woman now though in ,eais shes
only 20 and she comes TO see her
man every visiting day and the nurse
arranges little tete-atetes for them.
She says those two together are
the most beautiful picture she has
ever seen.
The nurse is responsible for more
than she knows. 1t happens. by
the grace OF God, that she is one OF
the real people. It's remarkable
how many real people happen to be
ward sisters. From the first she
has called this lad her Yankee
Doodle. She stood by him thorugh
all the first days OF agony, and now
It is she who helps and encourages
him in learning to do things with
MS left hand. you have no idea
how clever my Yankee Doodle is.

LOCAL BOARD WITH
OUT JURISDICTION
Exemption Claims on Industrial
Grounds Decided at Annapolis

In statement issued Yesterday by
Howard ?. Brydon, Production Manager
of the u. S Fuel Administration for
this district. he called attention to the
fact that all exemptions from the draft
on industrial grounds were passed on
by the district sboards at the state
capitol and not by the local boards.
At conference with the local board
at Frostburg recently, this point was
cleared up, and Mr. Brydon will &C
company the Government appeal agent,
Mr.. Oliver H. Bruce, to Annapolis to-
morrow, for meeting with the district
board there
AS production manager. Mr.. Brydon
is extremely anxious to aecure excmp-
ton from the draft for all workers en-
titled to such exemption on Industrial
grounds.
1t is important, of course, that these
claims are presented properly to the
District Board, and Mr.. Brydon wishes
to cooperate with the applicants to
make sure that nothlngis overlooked in
the way of supporting affidavits, etc
To this end the production manager
would like to be advised by miners and
operators when industrial claims are
filed, and when supplied with the facts,
he will see to it that nothing is left I'M
done which may properly be done to-
ward a successful prosecution of the
case.
The cooperation of miners and opera
tors with his office in securing legiti-
mate industrial exemptions will be an
important step on the road to the high
mark of production set for this district.
