PERIsC0PE FOR USE ON LAND
Enables Observer to Look Over Tall
Obstacles in Spying Out Move-
ments Of the Enemy.

The periscope is being put to about
as much strenuous service in this war
as any other invention. The old French
saying, "Be silent, your enemies are
Iistenins" might we'll be paraphrased
by the Germans to read "Lie low; the
allies are looking!"
A pole periscOpe Of q late design,
which is extensively used in the armies
of the allies, enables an officer to peep
over tall obstacles, such as houses and
treetops.
The height to which this p%eriscope,
says Popular Science Monthly, can be

HERO BEuT7LEs DEED
Doesn't Think Much of Act That
Won Cross.
All He Did Was Swim River under
Fire and Rescue Wounded
Frenchman.

Pittsburgh.-"Now listen, get me!
There's been so much hot air about
this hero stuff that l want you to get
1t straight. l saw this French bird
across the river and l went and got
him. II l hadn't someone else probably
would have taken the same chancr.'
In these words Capt. Walter X.
Flannery, who was awarded the Cross
of War for swimming the Marine river
n rescuing u wounded French sol
dter at the time the Germans held the
Aisne-Marne salient, disposes of any
attempt to make a hero of him for the
deed. At the time %Flannery was a lieu
tenant. He is at his home here on q
furlough.
The wounded man lay on the bank
across the river from where the
Americans We're stationed at Surigny.
Disregardins a French officers warn
Ing that it probably was a ruse TO at
tract Americans over that the Huns
might earn what division opposed
them, Flannery waited until nightfall,
When he stripped to his underclothing
ana swan across. The Germans
spotted him and most of the trip was
under water. Flannery tells the rest
of the story as follows:
"When l got over l found the man.
All the French l knew was 'ici, ici'-
here, here'-and then the bird went
hysterical and refused tt come into
the water. He was too weak to tie
the rope l had brought along, so
had to drag him in. We got over all
right.
But the joke was that a couple of
days later got orders to report to a
French colonel. Headquarters was
about miles away, so l hoofed
it back, expected to be put on patrol
duty of some sort. l presented my
self and couldn't find out what the
program was. They told me to 20
stand behind a major. l did, but the
major kept rambling around, and me
after him like a goof.
Then l was told to go forward on
the parade ground, and u French gen.
eral lined me up, pointed a sword at
me and turned on the French. II
wasn't much of a conversation for
didn't know what he was talking about
so I just grinned. Then he let down
the sword, pinned this on me-the
Croix de Guerre-and started kissing
me. Say, that mustache tickled me
from q to ear. I'm of saving mer
after this"
