wins" The young woman turned tae
letter over to proper authorities and
few days ago John Kramer landed
at the military prison at Fort Leaven-

Throughout bygone years BARRIERS
have looked upon the bald-headed man
in search of haircut as a ray of
light providentially sent. The bald
headed man had protested frequently
that he should not be compelled to
pay the same tax for haircut as the
one with thick curls clustering about
his ears. 1t has. remained for bar
bers of Reading, Pa.,t6 consider estab-
fishing zone system for haircuts by
virtue of which the baldheaded man
will be entitled to rebate common
surate with the dimension of his bald
spot The plan as considered, Is to
have a number of pasteboard circles of
verious sizes to govern the amount |
of the rebate.
A private soldier at Camp Funston
to a reporter: ~ have been drilling
out in the trenches and one of the |
things they have told US is to be alert |
to fall upon hand grenades. Suppos-
ing we go to the front line trenches.
There are six or seven of US in a
pocket or section of trench when a
German heaves a hand grenade into
our mist, as Ring Lardner would say.
All of us will be killed or wounded if
one of US wouldn't sacrifice himself.
In such an emergency the soldier
nearest to the grenade is supposed to
fall upon it and hug it. Of course
he would be killed instantly, but his
body would act as a shield that would
save the others. This is what they
have been trying to tell me to do.
All I've got to say is that if l happen
to be in trench and hand grenade
lights in that trench, there's going to
be some argument as to which one is
the nearest. There isn't anything that
couldn't convince me that / was the
closest"
