early in August. was Private William
James. of Kittanning, Pa. wso sin
gle-handed cleaned out three Ger

Various systems had been tried
by the American infant:ymen to rid
the country west of FySmes of the
German machine gunners who were
situated so that theU positions COM
manded certain streets which eX-
tended away from them through the
town. Finally the commanding Of

deavoring to gain positions from
which they could shoot down the
machine gunners by rifle fire.
James Turn Comes
Four Americans had been wound
ed in these attempts when it came
to James turn. Instead of going
roundabout as others had done
James started straight for the gun
ners, taking advantage of the tai
grass and crawling on his hands and
knees. He was not seen by the
Germans. probably partly because
they were looking for attacks more
from the sides, where the others had
come from.

James eventually reached a point
where he could see two sunners and
he killed them both, cleaning out
this nest with two rifle shots. Their
James crawled even farther and ir
the second nest killed one German
and wounded the other, and in the
third he wounded the only two Ger.
mans in this nest. Four hours after
having started on his mission James
