Prof. M. c. Rhue Gets
Finger Taken Off
Pv a Motor~yr1A
By a Motorcycle

|
Prof. Nj. c. Rhuc, principal OF
the Morrison school, got a finger
taken off at the first joint by a
motorcycle last Friday evening.
about nine O'Clock, when he care
le>sly began TO tampcr with the
chain when the machine was in
gear. MIR. Rhuc and the Misses
Clara and Isabelle Hooper had
made the trip to Denver on the
motorcycle, which has a side car,
and had reached the corner near
Brinkcrhoff's place, when the ma
chine did not perform its work to
suit the driver. He stopped the
machine and was spinning the
engine, and having his glove ON,
put his left hand on the chain to
see whether it was tight enough.
The fingers of his glove caught
in the chain and drew the first
three fingers into the gear. Know
ing that he was badly hurt, he
did not remove the glove but hur-
RED on to the Hooper home.
where DR.. Foster was summoned
by telephone. 1t was found nee
cssary to amputatc the middle
finger at the first joint and the
other two were quite badly LAGER
atcd and torn, but can be saved.
1t is a very painful injury and
Mr.. Rhuc did not feel equal to
the task of rcsuming his school
duties and asked the school board
to excuse him another week.
The following morning Will
Hooper had cvcK more serious
experience than Mr.. Rhue with
the same machine. He took it to

Large Audience to
Greet Mcconnell

Almost a full house greeted
Thomas Mcconnell at the Pres
byterian church last Friday night
and heard him tell his wonderful
experiences in the trenches and
doing ambulance service at Yer
dun and along the western front.
Although only boy OF 10, Mr..
Mcconnell has had an experience
that is calculated to add years to
mans life if not grey hairs to
his crown. The audience sat in
wrapt attention to his fifty min
ute talk, and could not help feel
ing that he must be possessed of
charmed life to go through six
months of service and be under
shell and fire goodly portion of
the time. He told of several mar
row escapes, which seem to have
been largely due to intuition of
approaching danger. There was
not the slightest intimation on
his part of having done any more
than he should have done for the
suffering comrades and soldiers
about him. There was no boast
ing of what he had done, but sim
ply a graphic account of what is
actually being experienced over
in France by the hundreds of
thousands of brave heroes.
) MIR. Mcconnell was invaded
back to America, but having re-
gained his health, he is not con-
tent to remain here safely away
from the cnemy's bullets, but ex-
poets to be called again i'll the
English reserve aviation squad
ron and return to France in about
three weeks.
He was in France at the break
ing out of the war and was in
Paris when the Germans began
their famous drive. A band Of
Americans in one of the large ho-
tells in Paris formed the ambu-
lance service of which nc was an
enlisted mcm63t, Snd Xhis organ
izat.on was financed with Ameri-
can money and the service was
maintained by a large body of
American students until .hc
American Red Cross has finally
taken it over.
When it is remembered that
the auto ambulance do their work
principally at night, and that an
ambulance driver makes all aver
of five trips, six miles in length,
over roads that are constantly be-
ing shcllcd, and that in order to
avoid being made target they
are required to drive without
lights, one can have only faint
conception of the work that MIR.
Mcconnell has been engaged in.
After the meeting many ascend
cd the platform to speak to the
young man and to shake his hand
and bid him God speed.
