ONLY SHELTER WAS
A PILE OF SHELLS
Alfred Wendorf Was Thru the
Hard Fighting of the ArgOnne
Forest

A shelter behind a pile of German
ammunition which was in danger of
exploding every moment from Ger
man shell was the safest place that
Alfred Wendorf, and a few other men
from Co. M, of the 61st Infantry
could find in the Argonne forest. On
Iy 65 out Of the ESQ men in his COM
pany escaped to tell the tale.
The regiment had taken the town
of Cunel the day before and had got
ten all the open country into their
hands. A nest of German machine
guns in a clump of trees was still
troubling them a lot, however, so
they attacked the clump from two
sides and entered, getting one gun
after a hard fight. When they got
I'D close to it the Germans gave the
usual cry of Kamerad and they en-
gagged one German lad who had his
hands particularly high in the air
to show them where the other guns
were. He lead them up behind an
other all right but they could not
reach it because of the enthusiasm
OIL the NSluldll pd4 49, MN wi
other gun from different direction
began to shoot at them and they de-
cided to wriggle their way toward an
: open place near by. There they
found the pile of shells which might
be touched off any instant by stray
shot. The hidden gun still troubled
them and they decided to move again.
+J,o4
gun was playing little game with
them trying to get them to go out
where the barrage would strike them.
There were six men with Wendorf at
this time including a top sergeant.
They decided to risk the gun one by
one. Each man made dive for an
opening in the trees, and 1t was fun
according to Wendorf to see the gun
trv to get the range right. They
we're striking just twenty feet ahead
of him when he made it. Outside
the clump of trees they found them-
selves out of the barrage again and
were able to make the town OF Cunel
which they had made ruin Win

Shells that are going to hit you'
you never hear is another observation
Wendorf made. One struck so close
to him that he never heard II. Ii
almost smothered him with black
smoke and covered him with dirt but
did no other damage. He took it
"fopped" as he called it. Another
time he was not so lucky. He was

GUARD REDUCTION
PROGRAM OUTLINED
Improbable That Co. K Will Be
Affected by the Action
Taken

The state military board on Tues
day determined that Minnesota Ma
tional Guard organizations are to be
cut by the elimination of enough COM
panies to reduce the guard strength
by one regiment. There will be three
regiments of infantry and one am
bulance company, and one of the in
fantry regiments will be converted
into an artillery regiment.
1t is impossible to state just how
the national guard organization will
be disposed, but it is improbable that
Company K will be affected by the
action taken.
The following statement of the ac-
tion of the board is taken from the
Pioneer Press of Wednesday,
Colonel George E. Leach will be
asked for recommendations to gov
ern the apportionment of the new
artillery regiment, although it is con-
templated that there will be two bat
teries each in st. Paul, Minneapolis
and Duluth. Colonel H. A. Bellows
will command the new infantry regi-
ment, with headquarters in Minnea-
polls, and Colonel George G. Booksta-
yer that with headquarters in st.
Paul. Designation of the new in
fantry regiments will be made by the
militia bureau.
''The muster out of the number of
companies necessary to effect the new
organization scheme will follow in
spections to start at once. These
will be made by Colonel J. B. Wool
nough and Colonel F. L. Minnigerode,
instructor inspectors.
'The new infantry apportion-
ments as approved by the governor
and announced by General Rhinow,
follow:
''St. Paul-Headquarte head
quarters company, supply company
and four lettered companies.
Minneapolis lis-Headquartres, head
quarters company, machine gun COM
pany, supply company, eight lettered
companies and a medical corps.
Outside scities-Twelve 1ettered
companies and one ambulance COM
pany.
Officers, not continued on the &C
tive lists when the re-apportionment
is effected, will be placed in the Ma
tional guard reserve"
Itineraries of the instructor-in-
spectors on the elimination inspec-
tions are to be announced soon, 1t
was said"
Mr.. and Mrs. Woodmancy and son
of Bismarck, N. D., drove here this
week for a visit with her mother

Someone Tampering With Graves

Some unknown persons have been
tampering with the graves in the
Morris cemetery. A mother went to
the grave of her soldier son the other
day to find that large bouquet OF
gladioli she had placed on the
grave a few hours before had been
stolen. The vase had even been
carved and cut with a pen knife.
She could distinguish the initials
e. B. w. cut several times on the
vase. Vases on several other graves
have been broken and, the flowers
taken. A bouquet of everlasting
flowers sent all the way from Cali
fornia were placed on a grave last
Sunday morning, by two members of
a family in Morris. When another
member of the family went to the
cemetery in the afternoon the whole
bouquet with the exception of one
flower had disappeared. There was
no wind on Sunday, so no breeze
could have carried the flowers away.
Strenuous efforts are being made to
find out who these thieves and van
dals are.

THIEVES STRIP CAR
OF EVERYTHING LOOSE
Even Attempt to Take Radiator from
Car Left at Roadside During
Night

Actuated by spirit of helpfulness
of a peculiar sort some men stopped
to investigate a car A. M. Shear of
Herman had been forced to abandon
on the road between Morris and Don
nelly after he had collided with an
other machine. 1t was Saturday
night just after the dance and several
people driving saw the empty car.
but passed by on the other side.
These particular motorists stopped
like the good Samaritan, however.
There the resemblance stopped too
for they helped themselves to every
thing they could pry, bend, or ham,
mer loose from Shears car. They
stole all the tires, the tools, cushions,
brakes and almost succeeded in de-
taching the radiator.
When Shear returned to get his
automobile early the following morn
ing there was really very little of it
left to take home. The car had not
been badly damaged in the collision
so that all the equipment taken was
in fairly good condition. Shear came
to a Morris garage this week to have
the stolen parts replaced. He is glad
the radiator was securedly fastened

Farr-JohnSOn

A quiet wedding was celebrated at
the Methodist parsonage on Monday,
August 4, when John w. Farr and
Miss Anna Christina Johnson, both of
Herman, Mimi, were married by Dr.
G. L. Powell. The couple were un-
attended. Mr.. Farr is a we'll. known
and popular citizen of Herman. He
has been engaged in the real estate
business until recently when he be-
came the representative of a seed
house in Batavia, New York. He is
now travelling salesman for this firm
through central and western Mime
sofa. The bride came to Herman
from the southern part of the state
a few years ago and is highly re-
spected in her community. Mr.. and
Mrs. Farr left Morris on the midnight
train for Steele, N. D., where they
will spend their honeymoon. On
their return they will take up house
keeping at Herman. 1t is expected
that they will move to Morris
in the course of few weeks to make
their home here. Their many friends
both here and at Herman wish them a
long and happy married life.

MANGAN RE-ARGUES
CASE WINS BRIDE
Went to St. Paul to Attend
Wedding and Attended His
Own

Tom Mangan lived up to his reput-
alton for never losing a case by win
ming hotly contested case of love
last week, incidentally gaining a
bride in the bargain. Red headed
ardour coupled with great persuasive
power is said to be the secret of his
success in this case. He went to
st. Paul Monday a week ago osten-
sibly to attend Miss Josephine's mar
riage with another man. He met the
wedding party at the St. Paul Hotel
and in the hours between then and
Wednesday, the day set for the we'd
ding, used all his powers of elo-
quence. He completely outargued
his opponent, for no wedding took
place on Wednesday. His rival with
drew hopelessly defeated and a cere-
mOny took place on Saturday in
which Mangan was one of the chief
ones concerned.
T. J. Mangan and Miss Josephine
Dixon were married on Saturday
morning at Catholic church in st.
Paul. Miss Dixon's gown was pink
tricolette and she wore a white pic
ture hat. Frank Hanrahan was the
best man and Miss Rose Blesener was
bridesmaid. After a reception at the
home of the groom's sister, Mrs. o.
F. O'COnnell, Mr.. Mangan left with
his bride for honeymoon in Itasca
Park, Mimi, he to celebrate at the
same time the winning of a most i'm
pOrtant case.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mangan will come to
Norris within ten days and will stay
at the Merchants Hotel until they
can secure a house. The bride is
we'll known in Morris, for she has
visited several times at the home Of
DR.. and Mrs. o. T. Johnson.
The Norris people who attended
the wedding are William Decken,
DR.. and Mrs. o. T. Johnson and Peter
Weum. Miss Jessie Mcclure of Lich-
field also went down for it.

MORRIS BOYS TO SEE
WONDERFUL HAWAII
A Great Winter Resort for Americans
According to Recruiting
Sergeant

William Brown and Oscar Walter
BjOrk, the two Morris boys who have
enlisted for service in Hawaii, will
have a good time there according to
Sergeant Tad Hoag one of the re-
cruiting sergeants who has been in
Morris this week. Honolulu is filled
with American tourists most of the
winter and their ability to spend
money has helped to make Honolulu
a fourishing city with everything
there from movies to magnificent
hotels.
The people are dark and more like
our Italians than any other race al
though their features are smaller and
more regular. They dress like Eur
Opeans and most of them speak Eng
lish more or less so that the Morris
boys will not have to learn the ma
tive tongue to make themselves un-
derstoOd
Soldiers can get excellent tailor
made suits there for the small sum
sof nine dollars and money lasts long
er in other ways accordingly. The
number of Americans wiling away
the winter in the immense hotels
make the place seem more like At
lantic City than like an island twen-
ty-six hundred miles from San Fran
cisco. Japanese and Chinese are
numerous and give an oriental aspect
to the place. The climate is like
II oil ar,io
only a few degrees.
Hawaii has a great naval base at
Pearl Harbor and three artillery
forts. It is an ideal place for post
according to Sergeant Hoag. Ser
geant Hoag is a versatile soldier to
say the least. He has been window
trimmer, a tailor, canteen manager
and is graduate nurse from the
post hospital near Honolulu as we'll

Early threshing returns are tell
ing the tale that the yield of small
grains was seriously cut by the blight
and rust and that corn will be, as
has been so often the case, the main
dependable crop.
Henry Hadler of Framnas town
ship, thrashed the latter part of last
week and the first of this and reports
the following yields: barley, 30
bushels per acre; wheat, IL bushels
per acre; oats, 20 bushels per acre.
Ole Syverson also thrashed the
first part of this week. His barley
went 27 bushels per acre; wheat,

QUICK WORK SAVES
GARAGE FROM FLAMES
Falk Auto Caught Fire When
Gasoline Spilled on Ex-
hauSt

Charlie Glover and Gowan PushOr
probably saved the Quigley garage
from turning by showing great pres
ence of mind in getting burning
automobile out on the street and a
safe distance away from the gasoline
tanks. Edward Falk, son of Ole Falk
of Rendsville township, had driven
his fathers Overland car in the gar
age to have the tank filled with
gasoline. He was standing inside the
car while they were filling it when
the tank overflowed and some gaso-
line fell on the exhaust pipe. The
engine was not running, but the pipe
was so hot that it ignited the gaso-
line and the flame puffed out spread
ing to the back of the car.
The cover to the car was UP and
afforded a splendid hood for the
spreading flames. Edward Johnson
in the Office heard the puff and ran
out to find himself penned in by the
burning car which was right over
the tank. He used the Pyrene fire
extinguisher but the blaze was too
far advanced for it to make much
impression. According to his own
account he was just wondering how
he was going to get out Of the place
when Glover and PushOr proved
themselves the heroes of the day by
pushing the car out on the street.
Johnson continued to use the fire ex-
tinguisher on the gasoline which had
spilled on the floor and on the cell
; ing which had caught just over the
door.
Before the fire department had ar
rived the fire inside the garage was
practically out. The fire department
was soon successful in putting out
the fire in the machine but not before
all the cushions and frame work of
the car was burned. Even the alum
mum pedals on the brake and clutch
| were melted. Had the cover not been
up the car would have stood better
chance according to the garage men
! Oliver Ostrem, of Minneapolis
| formerly of Morris, has been the
guest of G. r. A. SCobey, Jr., OF
Morris. Ostrem has just been dis
charged from the service.

COLLIDED WITH BUGGY
WHEN LIGHTS FAILED
Occupants of Buggy Luckily Not
Seriously Injured in Sunday
Night Accident

One mile out of town and just a
half minute after his lights had
gone out Joe Eul driving with Mabel
Wright of Donnelly ran down a
horse and buggy at twelve o'clock
Sunday night on the road by Fred
Chaplinski's farm.
Young Eul had been out making
some collections for his father and
was driving the Polarine Ford run
about. His lights had gone out
earlier in the evening and he had
stopped at Hancock to have them
fixed. There he secured some tenn
porary lights to allow him to get
back to Morris. They proved en-
tirely too temporary, however, and
he was suddenly left in darkness.
Before he could stop his car had col
lided with the buggy completely
wrecking it. The occupants a Mr..
and Mrs. Benson and baby and Mrs.
Benson's two brothers were pinned
under the ruins. Mrs. Benson was
carried into the Chaplinski farm
where it was found her injuries were
not serious. Miss Wright was cut
about the throat when the wind
shield smashed. The horses leg was
broken and it had to be shot Dam
ages to the buggy alone were estim-
ated at $3.50.
