tically the whole story of the battle
of Chateau Thierry. He spoke Of how
his right hand companion and his
comrade on the left side both fell
wounded during the action. and how
when one of them was picked up by
the stretcher bearers his arm fell off
and across McGiffert's neck. y
After the meeting McGiffert was
taken over by squad of business men
and spirited away/to an office, where
he was to re-relate his experiences IN
the trenches in France.
Will Speak Again.
Sergeant McGiffert is to speak again
at the Chamber of Commerce, and
that within the next few days. ac-
cording to an announcement made
this noon. The arrangements for the
coming talk were rather hurried, SO
that no definite date for the event
could be given. 1t is thought that the
speech will be made this week.

BUT IL MORE DAYS
1918 War Savings Stamps Will Then
Be Taken From Market.

Citizens of Topeka-or any other
city, town or village in the United
States, have but twelve more days in
which to complete the filling up of
their War Savings Stamp folders. The
green stamps go off sale December
81. and in their stead will be placed
blue stamp.
The green stamps and the blue
stamps may not be assorted in the
: ame folder but must be kept separate.
There is a reason for this too. The
green stamps at the close of selling
will be worth $4.23- In January 1928
they will be worth face value, IS. But
the blue stamps will be on sale jan
uary at sap each and will not be
worth par until January, 1924.
1t is urged by the county war saw
ings stamp committee that every citi-
zen of the county redeem his pledge
to the United States for the purchase
of war savings certificates before the
night of December 81 and that after
that date that a new pledge be signed
promising to buy SO many stamps Of
the blue 1919 issue.

Kansas City Counselor Prepares Pa
pcrs Forcing Service on Car Lines.
Kansas City. Dec. 17.-E. NJ. Har-
Der, city counselor, prepared a petit
ton today to be filed in the federal
court which would require the Kansas
City railways company to give norm; !.
car service and to issue an injunction
restraining any one from interfering
with that service. A street car strike
has been in progress here nearly a
week and only a partial service on
some OF the main lines of traffic is be-
ing maintained during the daylight
hours.
The proceedings will be supplement
tary to the railway company's case
now in federal court. The company
recently sought an injunction which
would permit it to apply an eight cent
fare in order according to the car
company to enable it to meet the
federal war labor boards award grant
ing an increase in pay for motormen
and conductors. The federal court de-
MED the injunction but the case is still
in court. pending the perfection of an
appeal to the United States supreme
court. The present strike is an out
growth of the wage controversy.
