position, had his head taken clean Off
his shoulders, and the rest of him
landed near my feet and squirmed a
little, like a chicken that had just been
killed. It was awful to see the body
without any head move around that
way, and we could hardly make our
selves touch it for some time. Then
we rolled it to the other side of the
hole.
Then, to one side of us, there was
a more violent explosion than any yet.
The earth spouted up and fell on us,
and big clouds of black smoke, sliding
along the ground covered our shell
hole and hung there for some time.
One Of our sergeants, from the regular
French infantry, said it was a shell
from q Turkish 155-mm. howitzer.
That was only the first one. The
worst thing about them was the smoke
people who think Pittsburgh is
smoky ought to see about fifty of those
big howitzer shells bursting, one after
another.
We could not tell what the rest Of
our line was doing or how we were
standing the awful fire, but we felt
sure they were not having any worse
time than we we're. In a few minutes
we heard the good old "75s" start
pounding, and 1t was like hearing an
old friends voice over the telephone,
! and everybody in our shell hole
: cheered, though no one could hear us
and we could barely hear each other.
/ Still we knew that if the "75s" got
going In their usual style they would
! do for an enemy battery or two, and
that looked good to us. The "75s"
made the noise worse, but it was al
! ready about as bad as it could be,
and a thousand guns more or less
would not have made it any harder
y, to stand.
One of our men shouted in the ser
geant's ear that the men in line ahead
of us and to the right were trying to
give us a message of some kind. The
sergeant stuck his head above the
parapet and had look. But I stayed
where I was-the sergeant could see
4 for himself and me, too, as far as 7
was concerned.
He shouted at us that the men in
the other trench were trying to signal
something, but he could not. make 1t
out because the clouds Of smoke would
roll between them and break up the
words. So he laid down again in the
bottom of the hole. But after a while
he looked over the parapet and saw
man just leaving their trench, evil
IDENTIFY with a message for us, and he
had not gone five steps before he was
blown to pieces, and the lad who fol-
lowed him got his, too, SO they stopped
trying then.
And all the time the "75s" were
sending theirs to the Turks not far
Tower our heads to 900 yards behind
us, and the howitzers were dropping
their 240-pound bits of iron in every
vacant space and some that were not
vacant. 1t was just one big roar and
screech and growl all at once, like
turning the whole dog pound loose
on piece of meat
The conclusions felt like one long
string OF boxes on the ear. and oul
threats were. so dry that it hurt tC
swallow, which always makes your
ears feel better after a strong concus
sion. One after another Of our boys
was slipping to the ground and digging
his fists into his ears. and the rest Of

mind on the noise for any length Of
time it would split your eardrums, 1
am sure. So all we could do was to
lay low in the shell hole and wait for
something to happen.
Then they began using shrapnel on
US, and one of our machine gunners,
who got up from his knees to change

EXPECTED THAT OLD TRAILS
 FIRST NATIONAL HIGHWAY

That there will be three great trans continental highways built across the American continent by the federal government and that the National Old Trails route will be the first one of the three, is the prediction of Barney Oldfield, who passed through King man with his wife, last week. Barney was just returning from the east to the coast over the Old Trails route and was of the opinion from what he knew of the road conditions that this would be the most accessible route for all-the-year travel and the govern ment would be sure to build it, either with or without the aid of the var ious states through which it ran The greater part of the roadway would be concrete, but there would be much that could be built with rock and other lasting materials. The Old Trails is shorter route and is less dangerous for the ordinary traveller. It is well watered, the tourist has access to the railroad and other aids also every few miles along the rote, as well as having many scenic places to visit throughout the southwest. It is open to late in the winter, when every other route across the country is closed by reason of snows and blizzards. It is free from the torrid heat of the more southerly route, and is in fact a route over which the average tourist would wish to drive.
 The Miner has always advocated the building of this highway, and the writer was one of the many citizens of the county who took part in the convention at Kansas City that fixed the westerly routing of the National Old Trails Road this way. It was Mohave county people who enlisted all the people along the route in the build ing of the road to it's present state of usefulness, and it has been the be- lief of all our people that sooner or later the federal government would take the matter up and construct a lasting highway through this section of Arizona. Our people recognize the fact that other sections of the country have the call on the government for highways and we believe that the building of many are necessary to the development of the west and will in time be built, but the success of one will surely lead to the building of others and the first one should be along the most feasible of the many routes projected. From every point of view we have the best route be- tween the line of Canada and Mexico, and the government survey, we are sure will justify our prediction.

FORMER SALESMAN
 KILLED IN ACTION

Serving the cause of the allies as a flying fighter, Lieut.. w. H. Leaf, Jr., Los Angeles boy with the Royal British Air Service, met death in ac- tion on October 30 in France accord ing to a cablegram from the Air Min istry at London, received by his moth- CT, Mrs. w. H. Leaf of 1922 West Eff tieth street.
 Barred from the American Air Ser vice by the age limit, Leaf, with other Los Angeles boys, including Tom Whitman, Bobart Rogers and the late Billy Taylor, enlisted with the Canad- ians flying corps in August, 1917 His preliminary training was in Toronto, Canada, whence he was sent to Fort Worth, Tex, to complete his course in the Aerial Gunnery School. He re- ceived his commission the following January and sailed for London in Feb ruary. He participated in the Brit ish air raid that brought down six ty-seven German machines.
 Lieutenant Leaf had lived here for six years, coming from Salinas, Kan. He was well known in Southern Cali fornia and Arizona, having travelled for the Union Hardware & Metal Co.,, Besides his parents he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. w. H. Stiles and Mrs. P. N. Morgan, both of this city.
 The above excerpt is from the L. A. Examiner of Oct. 6. Leaf was well known here numbering many friends among his hardware customers.

WORKING IN FRANCE
 UNDER THE K. OF C.

Nogales, Arizona, is justly proud of the record the Rev. George c. Van Goettheim, formerly parish priest in the Sacred Heart parish, has made and is making in France. The former priest of Sacred Heart parish went to France over year ago to engage in Knights of Columbus work at the front and he has been in the midst of things ever since, ministering to the needs of the living and the suffer- ing of the injured. Father Goett- helm is one of the mercy workers whc is in such demand that he has been carried from post to post in airplapes to aid him in doing more of the work in which he is proving so valuable.
 In the year he has been in France the good father has aided in the erec- tion and dedication of not less than fifteen Knights of Columbus halls and his work in the front line trenches has shown him a man. of great .fortitude and bravery. He is ranked as one of the most enthusiastic workers for the cause of democracy in France.
 Father Goettheim's work for the coming year will be supported through the United War Work Campaign drive of November HIS. The National Catholic War Council-Knights of Col umbus organization is an intergal part of that great mercy campaign.

 MT. Lauzon was one of the kindliest of gentlemen and numbers scores of friends throughout the mining sections who will learn with deep regret of his passing. It is expected that inter- ment will be in the Mountain View Cemetery here, but a final decision is being awaited owing to word from other children in Salt Lake City.

WORK STARTED ON
 .PRESCOT-JERONE ROAD

The state engineer has put a large force of men to work on the grade of the Prescott-Jerome road, the short line that is to connect the two cities. The New highway will be about 34 miles long and will traverse the noun tains on a good grade. The old road by way of Clarkdale is nearly 70 miles in length, much of which is only a cow-trail. The two towns should have been connected lopg ago, as it will be for the mutual interest of each to have greater intercourse with each other. The cost of the road is partly to be borne by the state and part by the county of Yavapai.
