traded uniforms with Australian comrades, slipped back
among the combat troops and when Hamel captured
they were present and some were wounded They had
fought their way through with the rest
Orders orders and the British very long dis
cplne So IS the American army for that matter, and
these IS youths took chances Of death wounds the
hand and martial the other Instead they
acclaimed heroes; the dobedence Of orders waived
and king George has decorated them.
This incident is commented upon not to encourage any
other Americans TO disobey orders which continues to
offence which all armies consider fragrant, but as an
illustration Of the iepressble spirit Of American troops

at the enemys throat

Something like 100000 men, maybe

years war winning crop.
Where does this army of harvest

Pershing's army of fighters come
from? From stores and banks and
farms and offices and shops, from
every trade, every profession, every
walk Of American life. Just SO N
Kansas. The army of harvestars
comes from the villages and towns
and cities, men Of every calling, men of
every kind, who left their town af-
fairs and flocked to farms for precise
ly the same reason that their rela-
tives and friends came to the colors,
to play part in winning the war.
| Kansas is using as much outside
farm labor as could be secured, of
course, but that supply is sufficient
to fill only small part of the need.
Kansas is doing what every other
state has done or must do-harvest it's
own crop with its own labor, for the
most part.
Kansas towns have "shut up shop"
so to speak, during the heavy period
of the harvest. Men from towns and
cities have left their comfy jobs and
professions and are putting in few
weeks of the toughest work they ever
tackled, doing it for sheer patriotism,
although, of course, they earn harvest
hand wages, 1aing it TO save food
crop, the saving of which is necessary
as the holding of the sector on the
fighting line.
1t is an inspiring pictue of patri-
otism. First the young manhood of n

FIRE TUESDAY MORNING


The fire alarm was sounded at four
o'clock tuesday morning and upon IN
vestigation the Fred Heinrich chicken
house was discovered to be on fire.
Mr.. Heinrich lost all of his chickens
but one hen and a few young ones
that were not in the coop. 1t is a
mystery as to what started the fire
at that time of morning. Is there
some one that prowls around in peo-
pies chicken coop at that time OF
morning that really have no legitimate
business there? Mr.. Heinrich has
not made any statement as to his
theory of the origin of the fire.

MISSING GARDINER
LAD RETURNS

Clarence Christensen. the 14-year-
cid lad who caused his friends and
relatives considerable anxiety on
Monday night on account of his fail
ure to return home, walked into his
home on High Holborn street very
early Tuesday morning. footsore and
weary. and it is safe 10 say that his
home never looked better TO him than
it did then. 1t will probably take
more than discoura cement. over his
school work TO send him away again.
During the greater part of Monday
night, his mother, Mrs. Nellie Chris
Jensen, and his sister. Madeline
Christensen, were securing the coun-
try in an auto endeavoring to locate
the runaway. 1t was thought probl-
bic that the lad had struck for Lew
iston and tried TO secure work and
such proved TO be the case On his
return a neighbor succeeded in To-
eating the mother and notifying her
of the prodigal's return.
