A BIG SOLDIER.

~ With the American Forces In
France, July.-The biggest soldier
In any of the allied forces now
serving in. France haze been dis
covered. He is U. s. Marine!
His name is q. M. Sergeant Pat
Grealy.
Grealy has always had the repu
tatlon Of being "whale OF a
"man", but it wasn't until he got
to lodging Boche shells 10 France
that his fellow fighters fully real
lied just how big he was.
The first time an "alert" was
sounded after his company got up
front, Grealy made q dash for q
dueout and got wedged tight in
the entrance. All efforts to get
him out we're of no avail, until SIX
former football stars in the CON-
psDy were called upon to crush"
him through.
They had to enlarge the en-.
trance before they could get him
out.

THE PEOPLE AND WAR
TAXES.

More than $3,5OO,OO0,OOO has
been collected in internal revenue
taxes, including income and excess
profits taxes, for the iiscul year.
This exceeds 10y over 800, 600, 900
the estimates made q few months
ago, and by over 300, 100000 the
estimates made q year ago when
the revenue measures were passed
by Congress.
The snc0ess IN collecting this
large revenue is attributed by the
Treasury Department to the patri.
otism and co operation of the
American people IN promptly and
cheerfully meeting the war bur.
dens imposed upon them.
