iured When Car Turns Turtle.

Special to Times Republican.
Toledo, Nov. Jesse MoHett. aged
about SO years. residing one and one
half miles north Of Toledo. had mar
row escape from death late Friday,
when his car turned turtle on the
road about five miles Eorth of this
city. Moffett was discovered near his
car In an unconscious, condition by
w. H.. Wilson, OF Marsballtown, who
passed the scene Of the accident, pre-
sumably shortly after 1t occurred.
Moffett was unable to give his name
and his appearances WaS indicative Of
severe injuries having been sustained,
as his clothing was covered with blood.
Wilson gave the injured man first
aid and sought assistance but near
by farm, house. was found to be de-
serted. 8. A. Geiger, Of Toledo, who
passed soon after, aided Wilson In
righting Mofstts car and in taking
the injured man home. A doctor was
called and a hurried examination dis
closed that Moffett had not suffered
any brokeh bones or internal injuries.
but It was not until this morning that
he, fully regained consciousness
The road was rough at the point
where the accident occurred and It is
presumed the front wheel OF Moffett's
car struck a rut and jumped from the
road, turning completely over as it
left the highway.
Moffett until recently lived south of
Montour, but had sold his stock and
planned to spend the winter in Florida.

Despite the increased volume Of the

steadily advancing, altho more slowly
than on Friday. The line at noon
showed no losses of territory while
some improvement Of il had been ef-
fected.
Considering the magnitude of the
operation the American losses in yes

where they manned heavy and light
machine guns and in many cases
fought to the end
Late this afternoon the air cleared
and scouting airplanes reported enemy
troops well toward the end of both
weeds.
Among the prisoners brought in was
one woman. She was dressed in uni
form, carried gun and had endured
the same discipline and privations as
the soldiers. Evidence received indi-
Gated that this was merely an in
stance in which the woman got into
the firing line to seek adventure and
that the German government is not
beginning to use women in the battle
zone.
