GALLANTRY OF CANADIANs
Numerous stories of Prowess 81 ne
cent Fighting East of AmieTs3

Numerous stories are coming to
hand of individual gallantry and mi
tiative on the field in the recent
fighting east of Amiens, says a des-
patch from a correspondent with the
Canadian forces in France. A Mani
toba battalion was held up in an at
tack on Fouquescourt, which lies
within the old Somme defenses and
was strongly held up by an elaborate
trench system of machine guns and
wire.
Realizing that the capture of the
the entire operation, the commanding
officer collected all the men available
and personally led dashing assault
into the heart of the enemy position
A tank coming up, the officer led
this through the streets. His ex-
ample so inspired all ranks that their
advance was irresistible and after the
village had been mopped up the bat
talon, consolidated a position to the
east and held it against all counter
attacks for two days.
A central Ontario battalion did
equally good work in front of Beau
court. The cavalry had been held up
here by converging machine-gun fire
from the south of the Roye road and
the woods to the north and east. The
battalion was similarly held up, but
its commanding officer realized that
the key to the position, was a small
wood to the northeast which was
alive with machine guns.
Taking advantage of the smoke
screen afforded by burning tank he
led in hastily collected party and
rushed the wood, capturing 16 ma
chine guns. The battalion then took
the town with a dash, the enemy re-
firing routed.

He Hadn't Realized.

The custodian Of an indianapolis
building recently hired a cOlored man,
George, to work about the building.
George had always worked as "house
man" and came well recommended.
The first day of his employment, how
ever, George was out for lunch the
greater part of three hours.
The custodian was naturally an
noyed. 'Where in thunder have you
been?" he inquired the minute he set
eyes on the erring George. "Me
Why, Use been home takin' a nap
George answered, in q surprised tone.
81 always takes a nap in the middle
Of the day."
"Well, believe me-" the custodian de-
clared, "you don't do that any more,
You're needed around here"
Was George aggrieved? Not a bit
of it. A most apprecfative grin spread
over his face.
"Well, now," he said slowly, 'you'll
have to excuse me this time, boss,
It's Just that | didn't realize before
how important is around here"

PRESS COMMENT
Praise for Mr.. McAaoo

Every intelligent person now rec
1917 it had become necessary for the
government to come to the rescue Of
the railway companies. The gov
ernment chose to guarantee the re-
turns Of the companies and to tale
the operation of their properties out
Of their hands. It is now clear that
If government operation was to be
adopted it was necessary to put some
non-railroad man representing the
national administration in charge
If any railroad man had been ap-
pointed director-general he would
long ere this have been torn to
pieces by shippers, the press and the
public. Since, as we can now clearly
see, twas esbdiraletnan---8ean-
see, it was desirable to put a public
man in charge, it is safe to say. that
President Wilson could not have Sc
lected a better man than Mr.. Nc
Adoo.
Mr.. McAdoo undoubtedly has made
1II1oeclhSo3 OCIIIC VI GIlSIn S1SoG O1lCS.
but there are certain far greater
mistakes which a man in his position
might have made, but which he has
not made. He has not made the
mistake of putting incompetent OF
inexperienced men in important po-
sitions. On the contrary, he has
put in almost all important positions
men who are eminently fitted fol
them by experience and ability. He
has not made the mistake of show
ing want of courage. If he has
shown courage to do some things
which are open to criticism, he has
also shown the courage in most
cases to hold the politicians at arms
length, and he has made advances ir
rates which are larger than any rail
road man would have dared to make
but which experience is rapidly
showing are not larger than are
needed. So far as moving business
| is concerned, the railways undoubt-
edly are being efficiently operated

Labor-Savino Harvester.

One thousand improved wheat-har-
vesting machines, known as combines,
will be used in Washington state and
other states Of the Northwest this
year, according to farm-help special
agriculture, and will effect a great saw
ing in labor. These machines, which
cut the heads from wheat and thrash
the grain as they travel across the
field, can be operated by two persons,
and each machine will harvest from
$50 to 400 acres of wheat during a
season. They are marked labor savers
over the old type combine, which re-
quired about 20 men.

Good Advice 70 Womsn.

Do not be afraid to reseAyour feet.
Sit down at your work whenever you
can; a chair in the kitchens is a great
foot conserver. On may walk all day
long upon two feet without injury, but
cannot stand perfectly still, as when
pairing the dinner vegetables, ironing
the small pieces, etc, for quarter OF
an hour without a crippIing degree o.
fatigue and risk of serious injury to
the feet.-Chieago Daily News.

CITY OF NEWPORT

A Gasoleneless Sunday

The result of the first "gasolene-
less" o-pleasure-d driving Sunday was
watched with great Deal of inter
est Sunday. The result in Newport
was a very quiet day as far as autos
were concerned. The family horse
took the place of the auto and more
horses were seen on our street that
day than have been seen in one day
for some time. The number of cars
on the street was very small. Many
Iof those which did appear were Que
bee cars which do not come under
the ban. Some farmers who had
autos were seen coming in to church
with the family horse. While a few
cars appeared that might call for a
question mark, the majority of New
port people showed that they were
willing to abide by the governments
request along any line to win the
war.
