\ LeGrand BOY injured, and the rela-
tive of Marshalltown woman killed
in action in France, arc shown in the
casualty list given out Friday by the
war department thru the Associated
Press. In the list of slightly wounded
in action is Lieut.. Harvey NJ. Crow,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. John w. Crow,
of LeGrand,
Lieutenant Crow, who is given as
Sergeant Major Crow in the list, never
theless is believed by his father to be
a lieutenant. The soldier was a SER
geant major when he went to France
with the first division that followed
General Pershing late last fall, but a
letter from the young man intimated
that he was going to be commit ssiOned.
This supposition is entirely probable
because of his long service in the regu-
lar army. He re enlisted for the third
time when the Twenty eighth infantry,
with which he was serving, was on the
border nearly two years ago. His
father, who is a restaurant owner Of
LeGrand. said this morning that he
had not been notified by the war de-
partment that his son had been in

dows and shoppers in the stores,
though as, yet not in crowds, the
Christmas spirit is daily manifesting
itself, and Christmas is on the
wing" Window shopping by both
old and young goes on every day and
many are the covetous chances and
the plainly-expressed wish for the OBJ
jects therein displayed.
Christmas this year finds the stores
of Paris filled with unusually select
stocks, and with prices no higher
than those asked elsewhere, and you
don't have to pay carefare either to
or from the store Trade at home
and get just as good results. Read
THE NEWS local columns and see
who to trade with. It's reliable
guide!
vAnd while we are on the subject,
let us remember those who will have
but scant joy at the glad Christmas
time. They are here, and unfor-
tunate, through no fault of theirs

in their dull lives. You know some
one, and someone knows someone
else who will come under the provjs;
ions of this carry -them-cheer on
