YANKEE TRUCK DRIVER
"BUSTS" PRUSSlAN OFFICER

Yankee truck driver and a Prus-
sian officer clashed back of the Cha
teau-Thierry front, as runs the au-
thentic report of a returned Ameri-
can officer. and when the clash was
over the Yankee truck driver had
found way to remove from the
Prussian officer the arrogance for
which all Prussian officers are justly
famous.
The tale was relayed from the front
to Camp Dix, N. j., and thence to
the New York Sun, which repeats it
thus:
After depositing supplies and am
munition at the front, the big army
trucks were filled with German pris-
oners who were to be taken to the
rear. A German captain, member Of
a famous Prussian regiment. was
among the detail of prisoners assign
ed to ride in the truck of which this
particular driver had charge. The
Boches had filled the body of the
car when the driver noticed that the
captain had not Joined them.
Climb in here" he ordered.
Look at my uniform! Don't you
recognize that I'm a captain? You
don't expect me to ride with them"
he said in perfect English. indicating
his erstwile soldiers, as if they were
so many Gagged dogs. Then he dc
manded a place on the drivers seat.

Nothing doing. Pm particular
about my company Get in with your
gang and be quick about It," said the
Yankee.
Throw off those American swine
and make room for me on the front
seat" ordered the Prussian. I'm a
captain. and"
He got no further The driver slid
a grimy fist into his pocket and whip
ped out a big pen knife, while the
other hand shot down, gripped the
Prussian by the collar, and power
full hand jerked him from the ground
as if he had been a child.
Captain, Ell? Well, we won't let
that worry you, long See here And
as he spoke the hand with the knife
deftly clipped the insignia from the
officers shoulders.

the back OF the truck among the
