The first returned Hood River vet
eran of overseas fighting, Cpl. Lee
Spaulding, of the marines. who wears
on his breast a distinguished service
cross and who walks with the aid of a
cane, arrived last week. Cpl. Spauld-

feuslve was turned back toward the
Rhine. His company was in the thick
of the fearful fighting that broke the
German advance.
With his knee shattered by a bullet
the young man had been ordered by a
superior officer to proceed to the rear.
On his way he saw his squad being
overwhelmed and forgetting the pain
of the wound and his own danger, he
rushed back. His encouragement re-
newed the determination of his com
rades, and the marines pushed on.
Cpl. Spaulding is the son of Rev.
Frank Spaulding. The young man has

PARLIAMENT OF
BRITAIN AGAIN
LEARNS TO PLAY
Takes a Little Vacation After
Five Hard Years Devoted to
Business of the
Empire.

London, July Is, Correspond
ence of The Associated Press.)-
Parliament after five haru years
devoted to the business of the
Empire, is again learning to play.
Last week it occupied a stand along
the Nall, while the fighting men
of the allies passed in review. This
week it continued it's peace celebra-
ton BY visiting the fleet |
off the mouth of the Thames at
Southerd. And on both occasions
it cass aside the dignity and hoary
customs of its ancient legislative
halls, enjoyed the novelty like lot
of school boys out for frolic.
Monday the Lords saw the ships,
comparative small and select party
which left London late and came
home early. Tuesday it was the
turn of the Commons, who cheered
the best known fighting ships.
The Balmorel Castle, which carried
the Commoners and their wives
first circled the fleet, the "Lizzie"
as the voyagers affectionately
termed Admiral Peatty's flagship,
the Queen Elizabeth, being especi-
ally admired. Then the Warspite,
which the Germans said they had
sunk at Jutland, the Lion, the Tiger
and lot of other big ships came in
for admiration, while the Conquerer,
the Thunderer and some of the
smaller fighters were greeted as old
friends.
The Balmorel Castle then steamed
down through the center of the
fleet. On one side were the big
ships; on the other submarines,
chasers and destroy,rs. Few sailors
wc1e in sight, but the crew of a sub
marine were loudly cheered as they
took position on deck for few min
utcs, and then went about some task
set by their commander. A de-
stroyer suddenly spouted smoke,
gathered speed like an automobile
and tore out to sea.
But that was all the commander
showed of his fleet. There was no
firing of salutes; no orderly manning
of the rails. Just the ships, silent

lish people as their first line of de-
fense.

Doughboy In Marines
Finds Difficulty In
Securing Discharge

Quantico, Va, Aug. 23.-How a
doughboy unwittingly became
marine and the difficulties he ex-
perienced in getting away from the
soldiers of the sea has just been re-
vealed here.
Serg. Friedman, dental corps, U.
S. A., after service in France, board
ed transport home that was loaded
with marines. On arrival in the
United States he went with the ma
rines to their camp at Quantico.
There he found himself a full-fedged
marine with no chance of getting
hack to the army. No one at Guam
tico had authority to transfer him
and it looked like Friedman was to
remain marine.
Finally, however, he was allowed
liberty to go to Washington and pre-
sent his case to army officers. Last
week he was transferred to the
dougboy camp at Camp Meade, Md.
