BACK TO HIS OLD FREEDOM
Stormy Petrol, After Brief Stay With
Tame Birds, Returns to His
Accustomed Place.

"The stormy petrol has left u.s." said
Sergeant MCGEE of the park police.
"He appeared to be getting along with
the mudhens like house on fire, but
on Monday or Tuesday last he just
faded away, and now he is back on his
ocean wave or wherever else petrels
60 when they get tired Of the company
of mudhens.
"But a successor has come from
the briny deep to keep up the tradi.
tons of the blue-water birds on
Stow lake. He is only seagull, and
a seagull is not such rara avis on
terra as our lost friend, the stormy
petrol. Nevertheless he is the first
wild one of his kind that has ever
tarried with us for two weeks. and
seemed to keep comfortable.
'He has no use for either the ducks
or the mudhens. That is to say, he
does not mix with them. But he has
struck up friendship with Anthony
and Cleopatra. the two pelicans of
the Nile. and there is no driving him
away from them. Maybe he thinks
they will protect him from the mud
hens, maybe it is case of. the de-
sire Of the moth for the star and he
is in love with one of them. If so, It
is only matter of time when one or
the other of them will get jealous and
gobble him up in one gulp. SAP

BROUGHT BOY 70 HIS DAD
Red Crosse Workers Set Out to Find
the Young Soldier and Of Course
Il They Succeeded.

Dad was from some little town near
Cincinnati. He had come all the way
to indianapolis to see his boy, his only
son who had been away from home for
four years. The boy was in the army
and was being transferred. He was to
be in indianapolis on Sunday and
wired his father to meet him. Some
how, father and son missed connection
in the union station. Dad decided to
appeal to the women Of the Red Cross
canteen booth.
II was to meet him here" dad said.
"He hasn't shown up. know he's In
Indianapolis somewhere.
The canteeners got busy. Dad and
his boy had to be brought together.
First the canteeners summoned the
military police They got Ndescrip-
ton of son. The M. P.'s started out
to find him. The canteeners also start
ed scouts. They visited every down
town corner and haunt Of the soldiers.
An hour later the canteeners looked
up toward the station door. In came
dad and his boy-arm in arm.
II did just as you told me-" the, fa-
ther said. "You told me to go uptown
and stand on that corner. You said
he'd pass there, and pretty soon he
did. The military police kept coming
by to ask If I had trail of him. And
then he came. My, but he was glad
to see me I"
OF course he was glad to see him.
The boys smile told how glad he was
to see his dad.-1ndianapolis News.

GERMAN BORN PATRIOT
Marietta Man Largest Holder Of
US. Securities in His County.
Declares Country Can Have Whatever
He Has Whenever It De-
sires It.

If William Hohenzollern depended
on Americans of German birth to do
his work in this country he would
never have picked August Heckert of
Marietta, MINI.
Although born in Germany, Mr..
Hechert stands today as the prize
practical patriot of Lac Out Parle
county with $4,000 to his credit in
Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps
and Certificates of Indebtedness. In
addition to the cash investments, he
has loaned his 24-year-old son to
Uncle Sam and the youth Is serving
his country on the dreadnaught Kear-
sarge. Mr. and Mrs. Heckert have also
toiled INCREASINGLY for the various war
activities in their home town and
county.
Chairman ]. H. Hayden of Madison
is authority for the statement that
the Heckerts are the largest holders
of government securities in Lac Out
Parle county.
And Mr.. Heckert has not been silent
concerning the prosecution of the war.
He has won himself host of enemies
among old neighbors for the things
he has told them about their attitude
toward the land of their adoption.
The elimination came recently
when Ferdinand Kahlbrenner, also of
Marietta, brought suit for $4,000
against the prize patriot of the
county. The suit followed signed
article in Marietta paper, in which
Mr.. Heckert aired his views regarding
the refusal of many of his townsmen
to buy Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps. The jury did not deliberate
long over the evidence and returned a
verdict for Mr.. Heckert.
"The land of my adoption is the
only land that recognize" Mr. Heck
ert said in telling his experiences to
A. R. Rogers, Chairman of the Ninth
District War Loan Organization. This
government has made it possible for
me to, succeed in business and what.
ever I have, the United States can
have whenever it desires it. The jury
that gave me the verdict apparently
thought that man who bought five
or six times as many Liberty Bonds as
his allotment called for, could not be
very disloyal."
1.-THE case of Mr.. Heckert," said
Chairman Rogers, "is proof that the
majority of American citizens of Ger
man birth are loyal to their adopted
! country"
Chairman Hayden of Madison de
clared that the story Of Mr.. Heckert
should have the greatest circulation in
the coming Victory Loan campaign.
1.-THE story should bring shame tt
many persons who have been evadins
their full duty to their country" Mr.
Hayden said.
