kRouPA AGAIN ACTS HERO.
Boy Who Rescued Cedar Rapids Nurse
Wounded in France.

Cedar Rapids, Aug. AZ. When a
cable arrived in Cedar Rapids Satur-
day night telling that Corporal Joseph
Kroupa was seriously wounded In ac-
ton on July %, 1t became known that
for the second time Joseph Kroupa had
DISTINGUISHED himself in heroic fashion,!
The details Of his heroism in, this in
stance are necessarily lacking. but
there are few Cedar Rapids people who
do not remember with admiration the
bravery OF ayoung man who risked his
life in the rescue OF Miss Mae Baxter
when she and Miss Dorothy Smith,
nurses at st. Lukes hospital. were cast
into the Cedar when their canoe
caught on snag and overturned.
1t was April Is. 1915. that Joe
Kroupa, hearing the cries Of these I'M
fortunate girls as he was driving along
the river road: plunged into the river
and succeeded in bringing Miss Mae
Baxter to shore. but was unable to
rescue Miss Smith. who was drowned.
He was the only one OF many spec
tators who had the bravery and pres-
ence OF mind to act Immediately which
was imperative. since there was a swift
and dangerous whirlpool at that point.
Miss Bakers gratitude never waned
and in letter which she wrote to
him, and which he carries with him
continually, she tells him that with all
the money in the world she could never
repay him for saving her life, but that
her hope was that some time she might
be in the position to save him. 1t may
be that her hope, will be realized at the
present time foEa she is "Over There
in the capacity OF a Red Cross nurse.
She and joe have tried to find one an
other but had not yet succeeded, as he
| is in France and the last he heard OF
her she was in London.
The cable was received by Mrs. Wiz
liam f. Hodge, 1888 North Eleventh
| street west sister of Corporal Krou-
pa. His father is living and resides. at
GA Seventeenth avenue east. Corporal
Kroupa enlisted in Company c, 16Sth
| infantry, Nov. 1. 1915, and served
seven months on the Mexican border
He is now with the Rainbow division,
having been in France since Dec. 2,
1917. and has been serving in the front
line trenches for several months
There are many facts connected with
the principals Of this war drama which
endear them to all patriotic persons
Miss Baxter has two brothers in the
service who are giving their all as well
as she. Murl e. Baxter Is an ensign
with the U. S. S. Galveston. and Cliff
kfort h. Baxter is now overseas with

Pure Wheat chalus.
Chicago. Aug, 13.-Chalus, a twisted
bread baked by Jews on Fridays and

nounced by Chicago Jewish bakers yes

ton requiring the use of substitutes
in the manufacture of bread. the bakers
explained that ehalus could not be
made unless the wheat were Used pure.
informed that. the purpose of the
regulation was to save wheat for the
army and for the allies. the bakers
voted 70 discontinue making chalys,
and then. for good measure, took SINH
lar action regarding rolls.
To insure compliance by all Jewish
bakers those present organized the
Chicago Hebrew Merchant Bakers AS
ISOLATION, divided the city into nine
districts and appointed a police com
mittee Of nine to- report violations.
G. N. Heinemann, of the food ad
ministration, pledged his cooperation
in bringing punishment upon any baker
who manufactured the renowned prod
uct unless way We're contrived to
make it with substitutes He said:
'Red Cross contributions will not be
accepted in lieu of punishment if vio-
lations occur. Those reported to us
will have to prove their innocence or
suffer cancellation of their licenses as
bakers"
