.24.OO6 WOMEN REGISTER.
FIRST DAY IN new YORK
Ratio of One to Three With Men
in Qualifying to Vote in Gen
eral State Election.

NEW YORK, October Son the first
days registration for the state cleo
tions next month, women in New York
city yesterday registered at the ratio
of about one to three with the men,
it was announced today. The complete
figures were: Men, 75,757; women.
24,o06; total, 99.763. The registration
of women has attracted the particular
attention of political observers, for it
will be their first opportunity to par
ticipate in a general state election.
Some observers regarded the show
ing of the women as good, while 9TH
ers were disappointed BY Saturday
night, when registration ends, it was
predicted by some that the citys to-
tai would approach close to the mill
lion mark, although, judging by yes
100000 and 100000. The total last
year, at a bitterly contested mayor
atty election, was 695,1O5. 1t is esti-
mated that since that election posi-
bly, 100000 or 100000 voters from the
city have been debarred from regis
tering by being abroad in the military
or naval service of the country
Political leaders have made a spe-
cial effort to have the women register
in large numbers in order to make up
for the detection created by the alb
sence of the fighters. Automobiles
were pressed into service by the
suffrage organizations to bring the
women to the, registration places
Suffrage leaders predicted that the
women would make a much better
showing before the week ends.

Reddy Finds Out What He
Wants to Know.

When Billy Mink asked Reddy Fox
why he wanted to know what kinds of
food Jerry Muskrat likes best Reddy
pretended not to hear. He let his
tongue run on just as if he hadn't
heard that question at all. That is
sometimes a handy way of avoiding
unpleasant questions or questions that
YOU would rather not answer.
Now that you mention that Jerry
is fond of mussels I remember hav-
ing seen him sitting on the Big Rock
opening them, said Reddy. ut is
funny I shouldn't have remembered
that, I've often seen the empty shells
in the water where Jerry has been
having a feast. Do you eat them,
Billy Mink?"
mot when there are fat trout to
be had" laughed Billy, resuming his
meal on one and talking between bites.
TT is too much work to open those
clans. Jerry may have them all, for
all 1 care"
Reddy laughed. He doesn't seem
to mind the trouble. 1 suppose l
wouldn't if that was all the food I
had"
"Who said that was all the food
Jerry Muskrat has?" demanded Billy
Mink. who said that? 1 certainly
didn't. If any one said that they don't
know much about Jerry Muskrat.
Those fresh-water clans are only a
side dish with Jerry. If he depended
on those for all his food he wouldn't
last long. He would starve."
How stupid Of me!' exclaimed

BRAVE YANKEE RESCUES
TANK CREW NEAR DEATH

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRANCE, October (by the Asso-
ciated Press).-A former member of
Squadron A, New York Cavalry, dis
tinguished himself in the fighting
around LIE Catelet. He is Sergt. Reidar
Waller, a Norwegian, who has taken
out his first American citizenship pa
pers. During an intense artillery bar
rage on September 81 he observed four
wounded men crawling from she'll
hole to shell hole. With two men from
his platoon he went through the bar
rage and brought them in.
One was an officer of British tank,
who had broken his leg is jumping
from the machine. which was blown
UP.
Another was an American non-com-
miSsioned officer attached to an Amer
lean tank corps, who had been severe
ly burned in the same tank. The others
were British privates.
Upon hearing the story of the tank
Waller started out through terrific
enemy barrage to reach the tank, al
though assured that all the others of
the crew were undoubtedly dead. He
did not think it wise to take any men
from his platoon on this expedition, so
went alone.
Upon reaching the tank, which to his
comrades seemed an impossible feat in
view of the heavy enemy fire. he dis
covered men alive in the tank, though
badly burned. He penetrated the
flames, which set fire to his coat. He
rescued two men still living and also
brought out one dead man. and
brought all three back to the Ameri-
can lines as shells crashed around
him.
Two days later Waller brought down
an enemy aircraft with machine gun
in the same sector. He was recon-
m ended for the officers training
course, but because he Is not yet an
American citizen he was not eligible.

and on Billy's small brown face was
puzzled frown. Now, what was that
fellow after?" muttered Billy. What
is he SO interested in Jerry Muskrat's
food for? 1t is for no good purpose.
I'll be bound. 1 wonder if 1 said any
thing l shouldn't have. 1 guess that
the next time I see Jerry Muskrat
I'll drop him hint that Reddy Fox
is taking sudden interest in what he
eats"
AS for Reddy Fox he turned as soon
fas he was out of sight of Billy Mink
and. with satisfied chuckle made
straight for his home in the Old Pas
ture. He had found out what he
wanted to know and now he wanted
to think it over and plan a little.

Reddy. How very stupid of me to
make such a remark. Now I think
of it, 1 often have seen Jerry bring
up lily root from the bottom of the
Smiling Pool and eat it,
If you haven't you've been blind"
declared Billy Mink. He eats lily
roots and other roots growing in the
water. and the stems of some of the
plants. And he likes other things
when he can get them"
WHAT" asked Reddy in a very
matter-of-fact tone.
vegetables from Farmer Browns
garden" replied Billy, grinning broad
ly. 1T is a wonder you never have
happened to meet Jerry on his way
there or back. If there is any one
thing Jerry likes it is carrots. He'll
take a long chance to get some"
We'll. we all take long chances to
get what we like. don't WEI" said
Reddy, yawning as If he had quite
lost interest in the subject. IT'S a
nice day. isn't it? 1 think 1 will
trot along and look for dinner. See
ing you enjoy that fish SO has made
me hungry" Reddy nodded to Billy
Mink and trotted off toward the Green
Forest.
Billy Mink stopped eating long
enough to watch him out Of sight

Estimate of His Character.
Brig. Gen. Omar Bundy, T. S. A,

sonal estimate of Gen. Doyen's char
acter and ability in a report to Gen.
PerShing:
Il have served with Gen. Doyen
since the arrival of American troops
in France in June, 1917, and knew him
intimately. When he was colonel OF
the 5th Marines his regiment was at
tached for a time to my brigade. HIS
regiment was regarded as one OF the
most efficient infantry organizations
of the American eXpeditionary forces.
Since assuming command OF the
I'd Division in November, 1917,
Gen. Doyen has commanded the Ma
rine Brigade, which l am fortunate
enough to have as part of my al.
vision. 1t is a well recognized fact
that the excellent condition of this
brigade is due largely to the untlr-
ing and Intelligent efforts of the bril-
gade commander
Gen. Pershing wrote to Gen Doyen.
when ordering his return to the
United States:
your service has been most salts
factory and your command is con-
sidered as one of the best in France.
II have nothing but praise for the
service which you have rendered in
this command"
A French general with whom he
had been associated wrote of Gen.
Doyen as a valiant soldier and a very
dear comrade in arms.
