PRIVATE of the buck species was

a PRIVATE Of the buck species was
n watching plane duel in the skies.
Quite sight," said voice beside him,
and his head nearly dropped off when he
saw that it belonged to the general COM
manding the division.
There is a story in that same division,
about the same general, which describes
how he was seen one day recently walking
along and chatting with a top sergeant.
This shows that use has at last been
found for top sergeants.
That division did its share, and paid its
price for the doing, when it helped to drive
the Hun back across the Marine. That
night someone softly opened the generals
the word went around that he sat with his
face buried in his hands, and his frame
quivering with sobs.

TT was late in the afternoon, and tireless
Il Yankee regiment that had already pur-
sued the retreating Germans across more
than ten miles of France was resting for a
few moments in a roadside ditch, a bat
tered old road that wound its shady way
through the ancient forest of Fere. You
would have seen them all luxuriating in
their breathing spell, the young lieutenants
lounging comfortably, the battalion COM
mander sitting with his back propped
against tree.
His name was Leahy-Capt. Francis M.
Leahy, of Lawrence, Mass, one who had
done his turn in the ranks and who used
TO tell of the days when he was orderly to
Capt. Pershing out in the Philippines He
had Just caught the signal from down the
road that the regiment was to fall in and
move on when, whining out of space, came
a German shell.
II plowed up the earth and stretched on
the ground several men who were just get
ting TO their feet wounding some of them.
It hit the tree against which the captain
was leaning and snapped it off like an
asparagus stalk. A piece of the shell struck
the captain in the back and tore its way
through his chest.
Goodbye, boys" he said, and his head
sagged forward.
Then it was as If, somewhere in the uni
verse, Commander Invisible had called
Attention. Captain Leahy raised his
head. With clearing voice, he spoke the
name of the officer to whom it would be
his duty to. turn over the battalion in the
event Of his being called away.

he said, 1.-THE command

CAUSE OF BAD COMPRESSION
Proper Amount Of Clearance Neces-
sary to Permit Valves to Scat
lin Proper Manner.

An obscure engine difficulty some
times occurs that is manifested by a
reduction of compression when the
cylinders are hot although they may
be known to be tight when the parts
are cold. This is caused by the expan-
sion of the valve stems during the
warming up process. Unless a proper
amount of clearance is allowed be-
tween the ends OF The stems and the
tappets this may he enough to prevent
the valves from seating properly.

WON'T GET MUCH MONEY
OUT OF WAR TAX HERE
But Seats on Roofs Overlooking Ball
Parks Must Pay for the
Privilege

Washington, May 23.-Persons who
sell seats on any roof or structure over
looking a baseball park will be obliged
to pay war tax to the Government
according to an announcement issued
today by the Bureau of Internal Reve-
nue. The tax must be collected and
paid by the enterprislng owner or oc-
CUpant of the building who received
payment for the seats occupied by
"perchers"
The announcement says that in one
city a woman whose yard adjoins the
ball park has been selling seats in a tree
the prices being five and ten cents de-
pending on how high the patrons have to
climb. Recently the price has advanced
to six and eleven cents, the extra cent
being added to the war revenues.
The bureau also announced that ad-
missions to outdoor amusement parks are
not taxable The tax does apply how
ever, to amusements within the grounds
such as sideshows and moving picture
theatres.
