NARROW ESCAPE

The Times-Record came near be-
ing minus one of it's employees Friday
night and the city fire department al
so being shy one of the best fire fight
ers it has had since the city was plac
ed on the map. During that very
heavy rain last night the sewers be-
came choked on account of the
huge volume of water and the con-
sequence was that the sewer backed
up into the basement of the Times
Record plant and in a short time we
had regular swimming pool with a
current that would run the RUSSELL
Miller Co. mill. Billy was down in
the basement on a raised platform
intent on feeding some posters thru
the job press and did not notice the
rapid rise of the flood and before
he knew it he was swimming around
like a tadpole blowing a stream up in
the air like young whale, and hol-
lering for help. John Busdicker was
working at the linotype and being
keen Of. hearing thought he heard a
faint cry in the basement and pro-
ceeded to investigate and found Billy
swimming around courageously but
making a game fight for his life. Bus
dicker got busy and called on the rest
of the force, a life line was formed,
rope thrown out and Billy bedrag-
gled and wet to the skin was hauled
up the basement steps to safety. To-
day he is none the worse for wear and
has the satisfaction Of knowing that
he has had his bath and will not have
to wait for the regular Saturday night
douse.

OF PICTURE

One of the most interesting and
pleasing features of the High school
commencement exercises at the Ar
mory Friday evening was the presen-
tation of beautifully framed picture
of the Valley City High school boys
basketball team of 1918. r..
The presentation was made to
tie school in an excellent address by
States Attorney L. B. S. Richie, and
accepted on behalf of the school by
Supt. G. w. Hanna, a miniature pic
ture was also given to each member
of the team. The picture was had
through the s. S. futile studio Of
this city and it certainly reflects great
credit on Mr.. futile. ~ tt.+ -
It will be remembered that our High
school boys as district champions par
ticipated in the finals at Fargo last
March, and captured the state banner,
defeating the Grand Forks team by a
score Of AZ to II.
During the winter season our boys
played Is games and won them all.
Their record was a remarkable one,
the total score in the preliminarily
games being 511 points to their op-
ponents 1876 points. This splendid
picture will adorn the walls of the
High school assembly hall, and is CIV
en- to the school in recognition Of the
brilliant record made by the basket
ball boys during the past season by
the Russell Miller Milling Co., First
National Bank, American National
Bank, Bank of Valley City, Middle
west Trust Co., Valley City Grocery
Co., and the Northern Seed Co. This
mark of appreciation by our leading
business men to the Valley City High
school basketball team in bringing
the state championship banner to our
city is highly commendable, and the
hearty thanks Of our schools and citi-
zens are rendered to the generous
donors. ~

FLAG ERAlSED
BETWEEN SHOWERS

For the past two weeks the city
park commission has been trying to
have the flag raising exercises in the
city park, but the weather has been
against us-and mind you we are not
kicking at the weather man because
he is giving us ideal weather for the
crops. However, Sunday afternoon
the program was finally carried out,
but it was finished up in a hurry on
account of shower which happened
along just as we got into the middle
of the program, but Old Glory went
up to the top of that magnificent flag
pole in great shape and ,foated above
the trees with it's stripes and stars a
synonym of purity and equality, so
that people coming to Valley City
when they see that beautiful flag
floating in the breezes above the trees
will know that they are in a city peo-
pied by loyal citizens, The first thing
on the program Sunday afternoon was
the first part of the band concert, then
D. w. Clark, of the park commission,
stated the object of the meeting and
regretted that on account of the
weather conditions he could not make
a speech because, said ne, II know you
all want to hear me, but I have a
mighty good man to do the talking
this afternoon and will introduce
President Geo. A. Mcfarland" Mr.
McF arland started in by saying he
was no patriotic speaker and we are
inclined to think prexy is somewhat
little too modest, because he launch.
ed out into a most patriotic address
and held most Of the audience despite
the heavy rain that was falling. He
had to cut his address short on this
account and Gen. Henry Beal grabbed
the rope and pulled Old Glory to the
top Of the tall flagstaff amid burst
of enthusiasm. america" and "The
Battle Cry of Freedom" were sung
by the audience and the exercises
ended. The more we see Old Glory
the more we love it, especially wher
we realize what it stands for and what
the flags Of some Of the other nations
do not stand for.

Hold Up Under Gas Attacks.

Later, early in October, came word
as to how the men Of the 18th, with
it's District of Columbia contingent,
were holding UP under mustard gas at
tacks. About this time the s0th Divi-
sion. Virginia boys trained at Camp
Lee, were fighting side by side with
the 29th Division. Men from both
units would go to the rear half blind
ed by tears and sneezing fits. After a
brief nap and a refreshing bath these
plucky fellows would insist on return
ing to their duty, and would swing up
on the tailboard of the first passing
truck headed for the front.
The correspondent tells how on an
inspection tour of the S. O.S, or "serv-
ice of supplies" with it's hundreds of
warehouses, thousands Of stevedores
and miles of track, he stopped at
Tours. There in a little room on the
second floor of an old French barracks

Seventy-Ninth Division
Received Its Baptism
iof Fire at M0ntfauc0n

Raymond c. Carroll. writing in the
Philadelphia Public Ledger from over
seas, where he is a special correspond
emit for that paper. states that the
18th Division. which trained at Camp
Meade and is composed Of District
of Columbia, Pennsylvania and Mary
land troops. received its baptism of
fire in the Montfaucon sector.
Roughly estimated. this division
alone in three days and nights Of con-
tinuous fighting" he writes. "re-
stored almost nine square miles Of
terrain to France. This area incor-
porates the towns of Malancourt,
Montfaucon and Nantillois and sew
eral thick forests, with deep ravines
intervening. Montfaucon perches like
an eagles nest atop hill, 1900 feet
above sea level"
Gen. Kuhn Praises.
For gallant action. according to the
correspondent, Maj. Gen. Joseph E.
Kuhn, their commander, in general
orders to the division. said:
During the recent lighting tine 18th
Division received it's first baptism of
fire in the Montfaucon1 sector. The
commanding general takes this means

be turned to profit when again con-
fronting the enemy"
Especially Praised.
Among the men in the command es-
pecially praised for gallantry in ac-
ton, as stated by Carroll, were Brig.

Verdun Finally Freed.

A dispatch a few days later tells
how various parts Of the 18th. includ-
ing District troops, were again in the
thick of the fighting. Up Hill 238
went the Yanks, with the result that
Verdun was finally freed from the
clutch of the Prussian eagle. Fol-
lowing this engagement the ground
was splashed yellow with mustard
gas, showing that the Blue and Gray
unit was getting a taste Of every
sort of fighting.
4 day or two afterward the Ger
mans counter-attacked. They had
never seen American troops before,
but they are used to them now. for
the crack troops they sent forward are
still with the American forces as
prisoners. With the Germans were
also several Austrian units. No spe-
cific regiments or brigades are men
toned in this operation, but it is a
sample of what was going on all
along the line.
In the latter part Of August the
correspondent told how the Maryland
troops were then coming out for q
rest, regular sleep and appreciated
baths, after having been under fire,
either in the front line or as reserves,
since July Z. They were replaced by
Virginia troops,

Showed Wonderful Spirit.

All the Americans engaged showed
wonderful spirit, he points out The
attack took place September 26 and q
and was begun under the greatest
concentration of artillery fire seen up
to that time. Montfaucon is a town
about twelve miles northwest of YER
dun and was counted one Of the Ger
mans strongest positions. From its
church tower the crown prince watch
ed the early attempts to take Verdun
by storm. On the occasion Of its re-
cent capture the Huns made the most
determined efforts to check the Yanks,
even hurting fresh divisions forward
for the purpose, but to no avail. Mont
faucon's capture relieved the allies of
the menace of German observation
posts and artillery emplacements and
was particularly important in that it
cleared the way for further advances.
The members of the Blue and Gray
division who made the attack reach
ed the crest of the hill on which the
town lies before the day had ended
and by the next morning field kitchens
were preparing hot breakfasts just
outside the former observation tower
of the crown prince. During these
operations the 10Th got it's first taste
