SHOULD CUT WHEAT EARLY

Wheat harvest is upon US. In much
Of our dry-land territory wheat will
be a somewhat shortened crop in
yield as we'll as in straw. Professor
Alvin Kezer, of the Colorado Agri-
cultural College, says; much good
wheat giving fair yield is produced
in 1918 on straw too short to bind.
Wherever possible eaders should
be used to harvest such grain to take
as good care of it as possible. Whom
the grain is long enough to bind,
binding should commence in the yell
low ripe stage as the wheat in this
stage has reached its fullest devel-
opment. To leave it later might
mean loss by storm, by shattering
or by natural lodging. The need Of
the crop is Sc urgent that every
known method of saving the last
kernel should be applied. Cutting
early is one Of the best of these
methods"

"Omcer" Proves
To Be Deserter
And a Bigamist

Private Clarence Starck, of Company
D, 131st Infantry, was arrested yester-
day at the Hotel Knickerbocker on the
charge that he was impersonatlng an
army officer. A few hours later, when
he had been turned over to military
authorities, it was learned that he was
also a bigamist, a deserter and guilty
of grand larceny and of obtaining
money under false pretences. He
pleaded guilty to these charges before
United States Commissioner Hitchcock
and was held in $4,000 bail. This
afternoon he will be taken to Fort Jaw
for court martial
Investigators of the Military Intelli-
gence Bureau found that Starck disap-

France: He has spent the four months

Old Inhabitants of
St. Mihiel Return
(By The Associated Press)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IN
LORRAINE, Sept. 2O.-Although it is
only week since the Franco-American
forces delivered the st. Mihiel salient
with its more than $50 square miles,
from possession of the enemy, a slen-
der stream of former inhabitants of
the region has already begun to flow
into the liberated territory. The
stream is a slender one because the
people who originally fled before the
German advance have been gone for
more than four years, and MANY of
them have formed new ties and as
sociations; but every day sees several
truckloads of peasants or of dwellers
IN the towns and villages of the south
ern section of the salient returning in
search of their former homes.
There are, of course, many towns in
the old salient, especially in the south
erly portion, which may never receive
their original inhabitants again to anv
extent, while there are many others
that cannot yet be reinhabited. for
military reasons. Wellnigh countless
villages are to-day levelled ruins. for
they have stood in the path of the
bombardment from both sides. and
hardly wall of the time houses is
now standing. Still other places, how
ever, notably st. Mihiel, are still
habltable, and to them the former
dweliers are slowly moving back, over
joyed at the deliverance Of their home
sites.

Board of Education Head
Declares Their Work Es-

A number of the draft rcgistrants of
September IL are now in Class IA,
ready to be called for physical exam
ination, according to a statement made
yesterday by Captain David Asch, aid
to Martin Conboy, Director of the
Draft.
This, is due to the early mailing of
the qucstionnaircs, which were sent
out in 10 per cent instalments begin
ming Tuesday, and to the complete
organization of the local draft boards,
Captain Asch declared.
>"Whilc one division Of local board
workers is mailing questionnaircs to
the registrants of the preferred ages,
nineteen to thirty-six. inclusive," Cap
tain Asch declaracd "another depart
ment is busily engaged in the classif-

Five Days for Appeals
when a young man does not claim
exemption, and it is apparent that no
one in his family will, he is certified
for examination to take place imme-
trants, whose claims for deferred
classification are deemed insufficient,
five days will be permitted for them
to make an appeal"
1T is now certain, said Captain Asch,
that men from the newly compiled rolls
of draft registrants will be used to
answer the October calls by many of
the boards. In some Of the local
boards, scattered throughout the city
the supply of Class IA men has been
completely drained. 1t is expected that
all the Glass Ia men Of the preferred d
ages of the new draft will be known
and certified for service b. October 7
when the first contingent of the city's
October contribution of $500 men will
be lnducted into the National Army.
Plans for claiming exemption for
$500 teachers in this city were for
mulated by President Arthur S. Somers
yesterday, following a consultation with
the Federal Board Of Exemption and
later with Corporation Counsel Nc
lntyrc.
School Teachers Essential
President Somers declared that
claims for deferred classification for
school teachers between the ages of
nineteen and thirty-six inclusive will
be made on the ground that the edu-
cation Of the young is an essential in
dpstry in the emergency Affidavits
will be forwarded to local boards in
case teacher is listed for Class A.
For the purpose of securing cxemp-
tion for the school teachers and others

has formed the following groups:

forced him to give it up, and to hide
their wretched crimes they chained him
and carried him off"
Tears rolled down her wrinkled old
face as the woman told US how the en-

then deprived them of every vegetable.

American HOSPITAL

Eight Americans were killed when a
clearing hospital was hit by a German
she'll on Wednesday night. The en-
emmy threw large number of high
explosive projectiles into the region of
the hospital on two successive nights,
and finally hit large tent where
gassed patients were confined.
A large Red Cross against field of
White had been laid on the ground
before the hospital so that it could be
observed by German aviators. Officers
say that the Germans were deliber-
ately firing on the hospital, as there
are no woods near where troops might
be concealed.
The majority of the Americans killed
,in the hospital were privates who had
been gassed recently west of Wanderers.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY AT
LORRAINE, Sept. IA (delayed). --
Shortly before the American troops
surrounded and captured the village Of
Norroy, north Of Pont-a- -Mousson, last
night, the Germans shackled a priest
of Norroy and dragged him off with
them.
The aged priest tearfully badc fare
we'll to seventeen old men and women
all who remained alive in the once
hourishing little town of the beautiful
Mosclle Valley region.
Norroy's streets were whole when
the priest left. Shells had been drop
ping all afternoon and toward evening
the shellng increased. Germans and
French civilians took refuge in cellars.
Yesterday a few men who the Ger
mans thought might be useful if left
behind were herded together and forced
to march through the shelled streets.
Two fell before the northern edge of
the town was reached.
In the meantime in one of the cellars
there remained the priest with old men
and women. A German underofficer en-
tered and told the priest he would
have to leave. The priest refused, and
entreatics and arguments eliminated
in the placing of heavy chain on the
aged mans wrists, which were fastened
behind his back.
Four years ago his flock had been
1000 souls. To seventeen remaining
in the cellar he said:
81 feel your deliverancc is near. Do
not lose courage"
Several women fell on their knees in
fearful prayer, and with bowed head
the priest marched up into the she'll
fire behind the German soldier like a
chained captive of mediaval days. Per-
haps he survivcd-perhaps not.

old folks this afternoon. All were cma-

their courage was the same as the Lor-
