American Wounded
Haue Their Jokes on
Way to Hospital
(By Associated Press)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Oct. 10-The laugh and the
joke and the prank are not absent
from the American military hospitals
There is suffering Of course. in these
great. splendidly equipped institutions,
but even the shrapnel loaded Ameri
can citizen soldier has his fun. One
surgeon tells this story:
When the lines of stretcher cases
were being brought into his hospital
the surgeons stood in the reception
ward making quick examinations. One
stretcher was brought silently in, the
form Of a soldier lying rigid under
blankets drawn over the head. This
is the sad sign of one who needs no
more help. They motioned the bear
ers to set it aside in a corner and when
the last wounded man had been looked
over the surgeons reverently lifted the
blanket from the face. The dead
man sat suddenly up with loud
"Boo." Then the "case" laughed, lay
down and again drew the blanket over
his face. They let him play his joke
on others for while, then sent him
to a ward to have some machine gun
bullets picked out.
do you suffer very much, laddie?''
asked nurse Of a soldier who lay in
his cot with white face and tight lips
in an American field hospital.

ATTACK ON SWISS

BERNE. Tuesday, Oct 8.-Two
large Swiss flags were borne by the
Swiss balloon destroyed by a German
airplane today. In addition, two fed

velope of the balloon. Details Of the
attack show that two airplanes were
discovered shortly before ten o'clock
this morning, coming from the east
and following the German-Swiss from
tier.
The observer signalled to have the
balloon drawn down. This operation
was begun when the airplanes, whose
German marks were distinctly seen,
reached the spot. They flew several
times around the balloon, which was
then about 1000 feet from the earth.
One aviator fired a machine gun at
the balloon and threw bomb, which
set fire tosit. The airplanes then dis
appeared to the northward.
