debris at the head of the thoroughfare a poor
shelter indeed and one swept by machine guns and
snipers from three Sides But the lieutenant in
command, who is dead, decided that mas
much as his orders were to stay there until re-
ueved, there he would stay
Every Hun in that end of the town seemed
be directing his undivided attention to the little
company OF Americans behind its fimsy shelter
The snipers were everywhere. particularly
deadly fire came from machine guns placed in a
Red Cross building so fierce it that the men
spent nearly all of their ammunition trying to get
those guns and finally rushed the building, but
they had to come back.

How Man Tackled" a Deadly
Depth Bomb and Saved Ship

s'sss'ssss' IS =
IT ISN'T recorded that John Mackenzie, chief
boatswain's mate in the United States naval
reserve force, was once great football play
er, but he was recommended for honor medal
and a gratuity of 500 for doing of the great
est football stunts ever reported.
The navy department report shows that the
morning of December II a depth bomb on board
the destroyer Remlik broke loose from its posi-
ton on the stern of the craft. and, bursting it's
boxing, went bouncing about the deck. A heavy
sea was on at the time; in fact, the were
breaking far over the stern of the destroyer and
the rolling and pitching of the little craft sent
the big bomb flying backward and forward to port
and starboard, crashing into the rails of the ves-
sci and hitting everything outstanding on the deck

"but put full steam, and the old motorcycle
leaped ahead like kangaroo.
"Bngl big shell busted only ten feet from
my machine Bangl Another exploded to the
left of me, and put on some steam. Then
whopper Kissed over me just missing the top of
my tin derby, but kept going.
Say, once l rode white mule in the circus
that no one else could ride-he broke my arm and
tattooed me with cuts and bruises. The mules
name was SNOWFALL and that animal seemed to
nave hundred heels every time l tried to get ON
ner back But believe me. one Boche shell is
worse than hundred Snowballs
ut was the hardest work 1 ever did to dodge
the holes in the road. Bling A shell plunked
behind me and ripped off my back tire. Bing A
piece of shrapnel knocked off my helmet but never
touched me. Then began to smell mustard gas.
My eyes watered that 1t was hard for me to
see. l don't know how did it, but delivered
my message. and when woke up l was in the
hospital.
Ialk about mules in circus Mustard gas is
mighty rough stuff, I'm telling you, and it doesn't
help to make speed on motorcycle either"
And then, because of his smile and his ability
as an entertainer in the hospital, Klein was nick
named Sunny Charles"

How Former Circus Clown Bore
His Message Through Barrage

IN YER since have all been old enough to
n think behind the things we see we have won
- dered as we have watched the antics of a
circus clown just what kind of a man he really Is
when out from under the big tent and moving
around in the everyday life of the ordinary man.
1t isn't likely, however that ever thought of
a clown as being of such stuff as heroes are made
but here is the story of former circus clown who
became real hero in the great war.
Charles Klein of Brooklyn, N. Y. became a
member of the American eXpedtionary forces.
Early in the spring, before General Foch turned

The actions of this

great description of the
gun which breaks loose
from its mornings on
shipboard and "be-

indescribable superna-

How English Aviator Exercised
the Commanders privilege"

a V1ATORS were often compelled to destroy
~ their own machines to prevent the Ger
mans from obtaining some jealousy guard
ed secret about the type Of aircraft. This is
a story of aviator who did that at the cost of
his own life
There were two men-the pilot and his observer
in the latest flying boat which Englands aircraft
builders had turned out. The two flyers We're we'll
out to sea when fog came down and cut them
off from their companions. The pilot headed for
home, but the engine suddenly died"
A hasty examination showed the pilot that only
a repair shop and squad of expert mechanics
could hope to make the engine run again. He
told the observer so, and the two men-the OBJ
server really little more than q boy-sat down
to watch and wait with the hope that a British
patrol boat would come along and pick them up.
The night came and the young observer fell
asleep. The pilot sat on the deck-coaming and
listened all the night through. In the morning
the fog lifted and the observer looking out over
the waters, caught sight of little black smudge
on the horizon, which grew steadily in size and
behind it another smudge and another. 1t was q
patrol 1otilla rapidly approaching them. The boy

commanding officer of the unit to which he was
attached This officer gave Klein message to de-
liver at once, the carrying of this message meaning
that he would have to ride straight through hot
barrage that had just been laid down.
Without q moments hesitation, with eagerness
even, the former clown-a mighty serious-minded
courier now-took the message, mounted his
torcycle and started on his perous ride.

Heroes we're made every day during the war.
Unusual deeds of bravery became so common
that little attention was paid to them. Some
times they found their vay into official dis
patches, but often no one heard of them. 3ut
now many stories of these brave acts are being
told, usually by the pals of the men who dared
and died for their country and for humanity.
Below are a fen of these unusual stories:

WOODS TO WAR ON
FAKERS IN UNIFORM
Asks Police to Arrest Pedlers
and PanhundIers.

WAsLINGToN. April 2S.--Col Arthur
Woods former Police Commissioner Of
New York city. to-day sought the aid
OF every police chief In the United States
and of their departments in stamping
out the pedlers panhandlers and takers
wearing the uniforms of the army and
navy. In n letter to the police chiefs
Col, Woods said:
You know as well as I that the
coolies. who send them discharged SOL
diers1 out to do this sort OF thing arc
doing II simply to play upon the public
sympathy which the uniform arousee
and will continue to arouse Cor a long
time to come. The men sleeping IN
Flanders fields and in the Argonne and
on the hills around Chateau Thierry
who can never come back and the great
majority of their pals who are returnln z
to civil life have made that uniform as
sacred as the flag itself. and the police
forces OF the United States can do no
finer thing than to protect it,
No fewer than so per cent. of the men
coming out of the army return directly
to their homes Col. Woods said. The
other 20 per cent. are left to linger
around the cities.
"A few/of these may be panhandling,
he added. but I am inclined to think
that many II not most of the men in
uniform that are peddling in the streets
never entered the service and are pure
frauds"
