SOLDIER COMING OUT OF BATTLE IS 1 GIVEN CLEANING"
Hot Meal, Shave, Bath and Change of Clothing With
 Bed Are Essentials.

With the American Army in France, Sept. 30 Correspondence of The Associated Press. .)-When a soldier comes out of batttle the things he longs for are a piping hot meal, a shave, a bath, a change of clothing and real bed, During the July and August offensive when the Germans were driven across the Marne to the Vesle and with the Americans on the move northward day and night it was no easy matter to provide the soldier.. with these essentials the water for bathing purposes was hot.
 Further improvement of the system of providing baths for the men on the very edge of the battlefields is con- templated. American officers say that the day is not far away when the roll ing shower bath apparatus will be as common sight along the roads back of the lines as are the rolling kitchen today.
 One of the divisions engaged in the recent fighting used forty eight showers heads and also disinfector in which battle soiled clothing was sterlized.
 "Even with this meagre equipment we have been ablesto keep the fight ing men in good condition" an off cer reported. "At the bathing center We can bathe 1,2O0 to 1,50O men each day. During the offensive we averag- ed 1,O27 men per day. As they were relieved from the line they were eith- CT marched to bathe or transported 1n camions, and every man was given a good, hot bath and change of cloth ing. In four days 5,642 men and 137 officers passed through the baths.
 "The effect of the baths on the mon was wonderful. They came from the front lines worn out dirty, cloth ing torn, and left the baths splendid ly bucked up, physically and mentally. As most of these men had to go back into the Line a few days after com ing out, one can appreciate the value of a bath and change of clothing.
 "It was exceedingly gratifying to feel that We did not necessarily cease to work while the division was in act ion. at a time when it as very inn portant that the men coming back should have the effect ot a bath Sno clean clothing:
 The medlcal OIIlceIS !ePoA' 'So forth that efforts are under way N~ arrange for transportation ot the bathing equipment "so as to continue the bathing programme whenever the divisions moves to a new area"
 In many instances the soldiers rest camps are located along streams ane when this is the case the men are taken in detachments of several nun dreds at time for real summer swim and allowed to remain m tne water as long as they like. But up front. when baths are being provided within sound of the big guns. eacn man is only allowed so many minutes in the water and he comes out looking forward to getting back to clvllza- tion and contemplating spending ap hour or so in nice big tub.

SINGLE G winner
FROM WILLIAM AT
STATE FAIR GROUNDS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. T.
Over a track which was considered at
least a second slow. and before one OF
the largest crowds that ever witnessed
a horse race over the Indianapolis
track, the sensational Cambridge City
stallion, Single G., 1:591a, won the big
match race with William, 1:5SR, at
the State Fair Grounds yesterday at
ternoon. After the first heat, in which
William raced off in front and then
faded in the stretch, IL looked as
though the big race would be rather
an uninteresting affair for Single G.
just romped in in 2:01E, but Marvin
used different tactics in the last two
trips. racing William from the rear
and the Lafayette stallion gave Single
G.. stiff battle.
The quarter was reached in 30 sec
onds. The half was in 1:01. The clip
was faster going the next quarter, the
three-quarter mile station being reach
ed in 1871 Here Allen pulled Single
G. out and the hero Of many hard
fought battle was soon at the side of
the flying William. Marvin worked
hard with William. but the stallion
grew weary and half way down the
stretch, it was plain to be seen that
the son of Abe J. was through. He
appeared groggy while Single G.. was
coming with the determination Of a
bulldog At the distance, Marvin see.
ing that his horse was beaten, quit
driving and Single G.. was an easy
winner in 2:011a. a most creditable
mile, conditions considered. 1t now
looked like an easy race for Single G..
Marvin, after seeing that William
could not win by going out In front,
decided to trail in the second mile.
Single G.. went to the front and VIII
liam was taken in behind. Allen sat
easy behind Single G. and the half
was only reached in 1:03A. Put here
the throttle was thrown open and the
leader reported at the big pole at The
upper turn in 1884 And Marvin
still kept William in behind But at
the seven-eighths Billy shot his horse
out and set him ION high" The con-
cueror of Directum !. framed up to
the leaders flank aud Allen went to
work on Single G. At the distance
both drivers were using the whip free
~ and William was nearly on even
terms with his stout-hear.ed opponent
But Single G. stalled him off and won
the heat by half a length in 2:03A-
the last half in minute.
The third heat was a repetition of
the second, Single G. again leading all
OF the way. But they set hotter pace
this time. the half being paced in
1:01A Marvin again pulled out at
the seven-eighths and the pair staged
wonderful battle from there to the
wire. Both teamsters reefed and
whipped, but Single G. again got the
decision. this time by a neck in 2:01A
another last half in a minute.
