David Hirdman is ohe Of the latest
of Uncle Sans boys to return and
spent his quarantine period at La
'Ieta hotel. He is a sergeant.
Dave only has short turiough to
spend with his mother and sister for
he must go back to Camp Sheridan,
Ala. Out of $4,000 men in their divi-
sion only three qualified as expert
marksmen, and David got the honors
with a score of 2S9 out of a possible
800. In a rifleman's test the boys,
after much preliminary practice fire
twenty shots (ten slow fire and ten
rapid fire. at bullscye first 100, then
2r0, 800, 400, 500, and $50 yards. Dave
says he fell down a little in the rapid
fire. Probably if he had had bit of
practice at the Huns on the run, it
wouldn't have happened, but tho his
division had all equipment and march
ing orders the war quit too soon to
get across the water.

A Statement

The members of the Calvary
Guild wish to emphatically deny
false statements that have been
circulated concerning the Episco-
pal church affairs and finances.
The church was ordered closed
by the bishop until all debts could
be paid off. The lights were cut
out by order of the acting presi
dent. Mrs. Burger, to save veexpense,
and the finances were arranged
and acted upon by full approval
of every member present, and the
falsehoods involving Mrs. Rem
shaw are entirely and absolutely
untrue and without the slightest
foundation and must be contradict
ed.
Mrs. S. L. Burger,
Acting President.
