HOWARD FUTILE
GIVEN RECEPTION
Oakley Boy Tells of
Experiences at Front

given last Friday night ut the
Anona Hall in honor of Howard
Tuttle, who has returned from
France. Late in the evening an
address was made by Fred H.
Critchheld. In his response,
Private Tuttle told OF many in.
teresting and thrilling experien-
ces that had come tohim. Many
were the hardships endured in
trench and dug out, but not SO
many as to destroy the Ameri-
can soldiers sense of humor.
The American can find some
thing to laugh about, even on
the firing line.
One night Tuttle and Will AM
bier were sleeping at the door Of
a dug out. Tuttle had just
awakened when a huge shell
struck mound nearby. A
great shower of dust and small
stones was thrown over the
boys. Amber, still half asleep,
fancied Tuttle was trying to
play prank on him. what

off here?" asked the exasperated
soldier.

most unpleasant experience took

Griffith, Will Amber, and three

to get their bearings, they used

light gave the Germans their

section was swept by a heavy
shell fire. The boys had moved
Il short distance from the spot
where they had used the fash
light, and now they did not dare
even to strike match. In the
darkness they became lost, ana
had to remain in the pouring
rain till dawn. The weather
was cold as wellas tremendously y
damp.
Tuttle says he did not see the
sun shine from the rs ui Septem-

AS matter Of fact, according to
officials at the traffic court. practi-
cally no one who attempts to escape
fine by putting up an excuse tells
the truth. This is a sad but true
statement, borne out by many ex-
amples.
There was a soldier a short time
back, with overseas chevrons and
wound stripes, who said he had not
yet got over the habit of speeding
developed while driving a truck in
France. Because of his uniform and
wound stripes the judge postponed
Judgment and quietly investigated
his story.
At the mans temperance in
court guard from the provost mar
shal's office was present. Then it
was publicly announced that the man
had never been a soldier and had
never seen France. Before the court
his chevrons and wound stripes and
other insignia were stripped from
him, and for good measure he got
thirty days in Jail.
Traffic court officials cite another
abuse of the United States uniform
IN that about rs per cent of former
army men, if caught speeding in
civilian clothes, will appear in court
for trial wearing their uniforms.
A doctor from The Bronx. re-
tanned by a lodge as lodge prac-
tltloner, stated that he was speed

Strict justice to all offenders
alike has ended the day when traffic
court justices were being "called

of some one for speeding. The fol-
lowing conversation overheard the

There are plenty of restaurants in

emblazoned with the three Yiddish
letters meaning kosher. One unac-
quainted with Yiddsh probably trans

mental blank of the right half of the
top of the t and Of the vertc cal line of
the D. To the discriminating, that

1t is court where home-brewed
legal defence fails unless it is high
ly original. If the defendant fights
his case or makes excuses, the court
listens respectfully; but, as one at
