there is only about a foot of earth on

that we had twenty-one days of con-
tinuous rain. No heat in barracks,

go to bed as soon as we had mess, In
order to keep from freezing. l was on
this type of labor until June, when the

the Chicago American that came over
from the States, of June 8th, descrlD-
ing this run. 1t must have been cabled
over to the States as we did not leave
the front until the eighth. The roads
were filled with an orderly confusion,
II ! may use that term. The lnhaDi-
tants were moving back. bringing with
them what household articles they
could, but 1t seemed that the most OF
them were just saving bedclothes and
a ew chairs, together with live stock
1t really was very pitiful sight, as
the majority of them were very OLD,
but it certainly was very cheering to
see them moving back again In few
days. We learned at Meaux that our
Marines were holding Fritz, and IT
was decided that we would not go up
until the next morning, as 1t was very
dark and no lights could be used, SO
we pulled out to the edge OF the city
and lined up alongside the road under
some trees. Us fellows were all III,
SO we just fell back on the ammun1-
ton in the trucks and went to sleep.
During the night an air raid was
pulled off but l don't believe more
than half dozen of the fellows got
off the trucks, as we were SO near
alE in. l think Meaux was the ob1ec-
tive of the attack, but the night was
so dark the planes got lost, as they
were dropping their bombs in field
about a half mile to our right, and
on the side away from the town.
EARLY next morning we started on
up and unloaded in field, arranging
our boxes in long, low, orderly piles.
which would resemble fence, from
the air The noise of the guns was
pretty fierce and ! thought it couldn't
be any worse, but found out what real
noise was when the Huns opened UP
with all their guns; also on plateau
held by our men. We were up there
from the first OF June to the eighth.
The heaviest firing was always pulled
off in the eevning and continued until
ten or eleven at night. The rockets
sent up at night were very pretty
things to look at, but they were all
sent up for business. The sound of
shells going through the air is some
thing like thunder. Not the deep
rumbling you hear. but sharp, tearing,
splitting noises, and Of course different
sized shells make different noises.

her arch, but was never able to make
out smaller she'll After the excite

War Department Shows Pro-
cedure in Notifying Reld-
fines of Casualties

Relatives of soldiers named
in casualty lists forwarded
from France ordinarily are no.
tilted within "a hours after re-
ceipt of the lists, according to
a statement authorized by the
War Department. A "statisti-
cal division" with a staff of Of
ficers and a corps Of stenog-
raphers, gives all its time to the
maintenance of files Of sol
diers' names and addresses.
This division notifies relatives.
A copy of the roster of each
contingent sailing to Join the
Expedluonary Forces is flied in
card indeX fashion, each card
bearing the name of one sol
dier, his organi4 alton, and the
name and address Of parent or
other relative or friend desig-
mated by him to be notified in
emergency. When a casualty
list is received from Gen,Persh-
ing each name cabled from the
American Expeditionary Force
is listed with the emergency
address on file in the card in
dex. AS rapidly as the new list
with emergency addresses is
built up the telegraph clerks
get duplicates. These clerks al
ready are supplied with blank
kilograms which require only
the relatives address, name of
sender, nature of casualty and
date, and filling in the blank
spaces they get the kilograms
off as quickly as possible. In
addition to maintaining the tel
egraph blanks for the sake of
speed the statistical division is
supplied with sets of form let
terS to be mailed when further
details are available.
While relatives are gener-
ally in receipt of information
within "a hours after the cables
are received, delays are some
times due to clerical errors
caused by the fact that the
names must pass through so
many hands in France and in
America, incorrect emergency
addresses turned in by soldiers,
removed of families to. address
es other than those listed, and
the occasional necessity for ca
bling back TO Gen. Pershing to
verify a name or to obtain an
address.
Aside from these four causes
of delay the only reason for the
failure of relatives to receive
word at once is military consid-
Grafton. Gen. Pershing may,
at his discretion, withhold a
casually list until he is positive
it will have no military value

Repair of Clothing at Army
Camps SdUeS New Equipment


Thru the operation of repair
shops for clothing and other
articles, a considerable saving
in reissue of new equipment
has been made at Army camps.
One camp quartermaster esti-
mates the issue of new clothing
has decreased one-third, and of
shoes 40 per cent.
AT a base repair shop for
clothing an average of 1881
garments were repaired daily
during the first 18 days of May.
In addition to the work done at
base repair shops, many thous-
ands of garments are repaired
at camp shops, one shop being
located at each large camp.
During April nearly 10000
pairs of shoes were repaired in
army repair shops. At present
practically all hat repairing is
done by contract, the price
varying from so to 80 cents per
hat.
This work is in charge of the
Conservation and Reclamation
Division of the Quartermaster
Corps, which has been in oper-
alton only during the last four
months.

College Station, Texas, Aug l5.-The
FIRST class Of weather observers eveFtralned
for the United States army is preparing
to leave shortly for France, where the
members will report on general weather
and atmospheric conditions as an aid in
planning gas, artillery, airplane and
various other attacks

hundred or more students through the
intensive course of instruction at the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
Of Texas, declared that the men now are
capable of determining the state Of weather
for a distance of twelve miles above the
earth
Ii is the plan Of the war department
TO train | 900 men at the College, which
is the only school of general meteorology
in the country, and this will neeessitate
two more courses in shifts of 335 students
because of limited facilities
Only college men are fitted to take up
the work The first class includes pro-
fessors, 'mneralogists, engineers and other
technical experts DIR. Oliver l.. Eassig
