PUBLIC SCHOOLS OPENED
WITH GOOD ENROLMENT
CBy supt. cummings)

Schools opened last Monday with
IN excellent enrolment considering
the mental attitude OF SO many of the
patrons. The high school had SO
per cent of its former enrolment
and the Lincoln school SIS per cent.
The patrons of the Washington
school seemed to be more timid and
sent only 81 per cent. We attribute
this to the fact that several parents
with large families who own ranches
in the country have kept their fami-
lies on the ranches. hoping by thus
solating themselves to escape the ep-
demic. Others living in sparcely
settled parts of the city attribute
their escaping the disease 10 that fact
and therefore continue to keep their
children isolated. Be this an II may,
there has been a steady Increase in
attendance daily since school opened
and we feel confident that within the
next week or ten days we shall have
very nearly a full enrolment.
The school board has employed a
trained nurse. Miss Gnlihan. who
spends all OF her time in the schools.
She is very skillful in detecting any
sort Of ailment among the children.
She not only keeps careful eye open
for the FLU" but also notices other
ailments. We hope the parents Will
appreciate this and when she sends q
child home with instructions for It's
care the parents should try to follow
them for the welfare of the child.
One parent manifested a lack OF ap-
probation and good judgment In re-
senting this proffered aid. We feel
that her kind is rare and that parents
generally will cooperate with us in
our efforts to protect the childrens'
health.
SO far as we know there has been
no tendency for the epidemic to
spread since the town has been
thrown open and we are positive that
the schools will In no way aid in
spreading IT, Do you give your chill
dren better care at home than we do
in school under the care OF a vigllant
teacher and a trained nurse7 We
doubt 1t. We feel that no parents
should hesitate to send their children
20 school. II you keep than out yon
are robbing them OF just that much
Educational opportunity.

ANOTHER GOLD STAR ADDED
TO BEAR LAKES SERVICE FLAG

DeMeade Austin received a tele-
gram last Friday afternoon conveying
the sad news of the death of his
brother, Roy, at detention hospital
on Ellis Island. Roy, who was at
first reported killed, was severely
wounded on Oct 3, but none OF his
folks we're even able TO ascertain the
nature Of bis wounds, until last
week they learned that both his legs
were paralyzed.
Roy enlisted in the service last
May. He was at Camp Lewis but q
few weeks when he was assigned to
Company G. S62nd infantry and sent
overseas, arriving in France early in
July.
The only personal word received
from Roy since he was wounded was
card written to his brother Horace
on the day he died. and received last
Monday. On the card he stated that
that was his first attempt 10 write
since being wounded.
Roy was the youngest son Of Bish-
op and Mrs. E. 4. Austin. He was
born at Liberty On July Il. 1892. and
up to the time Of entering the ser
vice. spent most Of his life on the old
home ranch.
His body arrived Wednesday af.
ternOon and was taken to Liberty for
burial. Funeral services viii be
held At the Liberty meeting housa
lthia afternoon.

At the time the armistIce was
signed we were on the Meuse sector,
being located and ready 10 fire at the
town of Brandyyille. a small town
several kilometers on the German
side of the Meuse river. Battery B
was the first battery of heavy guns
to cross the Meuse at Dunnsin, Meuse.
The entire 66th brigade was in every
drive of any consequence from Cha
-teau Thierry until the day OF the
ending Of hostiIities, having occupied
13 positions which, considering the
range of our guns. was a great num-
Der. Many Of these times we were
either beside or a little in advance Of
the 75's. Six of these positions were
during the second battle OF the
Marne, the first OF which was at Mon
tLOis) 3 few kilometers south of the
Vesle river. We occupied but one po-
sition on the st. MihieI drive, but was
there for the entire affair. WhenA the
drive northwest Of Verdun began we
had good position on that sector. II
was here. through the accuracy OF one
Of our lieutenants, that Battery B
alone destroyed nine German bate
ries and in such good time that the
battery was praised by the command
ing general. We then moved and as
sisted in the Argonne forest push.
Then we were behind the seth on the
first of November. when the results OF
the work done during the preceding
four months began to show itself to
the public. And thus we saw the part
of the war that put Germony out OF
the game.

We are receiving lota OF mail now

we've on the front. We are having

TO learn English. but Il Ia hard work
20 teach them. The people here are
not so bad off.--it ID nothing like I
expected to see. They let us stay in

went to st. Mihlel and from there TO
North verdun and several more plac-
es. We were in several OF the big
drives. have seen some great air

felt like you we're as big as noun

ONE night about nine o'clock and we
were firing. The Germans were she'll
ing town back of ua and one Of their
shells fell about half mile short and
lit right In front of one OF our gnna.
You ought to have seen US run for
cover. We stayed there for couple
Of hours and then went back and
started firing again.
We are 20 miIes from cobients. but
can't go there; Il IL quite a large city.
The frst biggcity in Germany that we
visited was Esch. We we're there
two days and three nights and had a
good time. Many OF the people there
spoke little Rnglish. They said
the American soldiers came In on one
side OF the town and the Germans
went out on the other side. ! have
