The Witness saws:

The Witness says:
number of persons have spoken
of and called to see the old linch-pin
axle mentioned last week. Such
things are curiosities to the younger
generations. E. E Culver of Bag
ley, was in Tuesday and says this old
axle (Which was made of hard maple)
was driven from Ohio to Illinois, from
Illinois to Ohio, from Ohio back to II
linois, and then up here in 1849, where
it was used for many years after.
Homer Grossman, who was killed
in action in June, will be replaced by
gold star. This is the first gold
star on the Normal service flag and
we look on it with a feeling mingled
with sadness and pride Homer was
student in the training department
and in the Normal in 1912 and 1913.

sight among the Americans belongs to young seaman, Paul Valachovic by name, who used to work in the ma chine shop of the General Electric Company at Schnectady, N. Y. He fell in love the first day he stepped
 ashore here, from his destroyer. Ada
 Jones, Cork girl, was the object of
 Cupid's dart. After the war Valacho- vic is going to take her back with him to that thriving city in New York. A few of the Americans first met their wives on visits to Engalnd. Charles Harmon Cobia of Charleston, | s. G., fell in love on the beautiful
 Cornish riviera with Ada Gilbert, a
 widow of 24, whose home was in Ply
 mouth. Another English bride is Nora Elizabeth Kilt, who married
 Joseph w. Highfield of Des Moines, Iowa.
 But the majority of the Americans married Irish girls who lived in the vicinity of the American Naval base,
 and whom they met at the dance hall
 or roller skating rink. Thus Doris
 Frances Phillips is now Mrs. Leo
 Vincent Flavell of Hanover, Mass,
 and Mary Ellen Sullivan has become the wife of Thomas A. Balschi of
 Mount Carmel, Pa. After the war
 Mary O'Keefe, who became the wife
 of Edward c. Turner, expects to de- sert the trying of climate of southern Ireland, for that of sunny San Jose, Cal, which is her husbands home. William Spaulding of DeLand, Flori
 da, has married Esther Allen, while

MARRY IRISH GIRLS.

Base American Flotilla in British Waters, Jan. 2O.-( Associated Press
 Correspondence. )-Every part of the
 United States has supplied hero in
 love romances that have eliminated in happy marriages between Ameri- can bluejackets and blue-eyed Irish
 maidens since the arrival of the Amer ican destroyer forces in the south of Ireland. After the war, every part of the United States from Maine to California and from the Great Lakes to Florida will boast of an Irish bride
 who was wooed and won in her native land by an American sailor.
 All of the brides are looking for ward to that happy day when they will see what their husbands so proudly proclaim as Gods country Already the American sailor has sup piled his Irish bride with all necessary documents to establish her identity as an American and some have even had their property in the United States transferred to their wives as a precaution in case they lose their lives for their country.
 There is the marriage of a former ranchman, Bert Adams, to Brigid O'Rourke, whose family descends from an Irish king of that name. Adams, who is boiler-maker on one of the destroyers, halls from Hugo, Colorado. He is now arranging to have his ranch in Colorado, deeded to his wife as a precaution in the event of his being torpedoed. His wife's relatives live in Bruce County, Liner ick, and there is plenty of anecdote connected with the family's relation to the O'Rourke's of kingly fame. s'I don't know anything about ranch ing" Mrs. Adams told The Associated Press correspondent, "But I am pre- pairing myself for the fair land Bert has told me so much about by study ing history of Colorado"
 Then there is the case of Mary Ridge, head waitress at the leading hotel here, who lost her heart to Har- land G. Ritchie, machinist's mate, first class, of Allston, Mass. She was one of the most popular girls in town. The dining room over which she pre- sided is out of bounds to enlisted men but Ritchie contrived to see her when she was off duty. They knew each other for four months before Mir. Ritchie led her to the altar of the vil- lage church.
