THE 167TH MEETS
 GERMANY'S BEST
 AND MAKES RECORD
Alabama's Own a Cohesive and Self-ReIiant Fighting Unit and Makes GlOri-
 ous History
nv col. WALTER E. BARE

The relief of the 167th infantry froln the army of occupation in Germany and the issuance of orders for transporta- tion to America marked the close of the third epoch in its career as first line regiment of the allied armies.
 After a period of training in France from December, 1917. to February, 1918, followed by a series of long night marches to the front the regiment was engaged in sector warfare in Lorraine for four months. During this time 1t occupied a front once strongly organ ized, but which had been allowed to fall into decay. Here the regiment maintained communications, dug and repaired trenches, made and repelled raids, became accustomed to shell fire, underwent projector gas attacks of considerable severity, and found itself a cohesive self-reliant, intersupport- ing fighting unit.

FIGHTING AT FRONT

Relieved and sent to the rear for replacements the fighting at the front was so severe that the regiment could not be spared, and was, without rest
 in few days returned to the lines to take part in the St. Mihiel operation
 After the salient had ceased to exist, the regiment, pausing long enough to organize it's front on the line, moved to
 the Argonne. Attacking first on the
 front opposite St. Georges and Landres- et-St. Georges, they broke down the German strong positions in the Cote
 De Chatillon, which was intended to
 hold up the American advance to the Mouse. The regiment advanced until
 elements of the First army made their
 pause for breath. It again attacked i'll
 the Argonne and drove forward
 through countless obstacles of defense and terrain until it was relieved on the afternoon of November 14, in the
 outskirts of Sedan, having gained somewhat more than 19 kilometres.
 From the area southeast of Sedan,
 where the regiment lay on November II, it entered it's third epoch. March
 ing overland through devastated coun- try and over roads rendered almost i'm passab1e by shell fire. mines, rain, and prodigous traffic, it proceeded to St. Marde. Belgium, whence it crossed Bel gium, Iluxemburg, and that part of w on December 16 it reached Sinzig, Ger
 many after a march of 36o kilometres.
 The 167th infantry formed a part of
 the army of occupation from the mid : dle of Decemb Der, 1918, until April (, 1919. when it entrained for Brest, France, en route home.
 GLORIOUS RECORD
 l The 1e7th infantry proudly asserts | that it has spent more days in the face 1 of the enemy, gained more ground against the enemy, and marched fur 1 ther in it's operations than any other regiment in the American expedition- ary forces. It has been opposed by the | best divisions in the German army, | and has made it's record at their ex- | pense. The regiment was the frs, l American unit to capture prisoners un- 1 aided by the French, and these pris-
 oners were captured by members of P company of Gadsden,. Ala. X member 1 of regiment was the first soldier to re- | ceive the congressional medal of hon | or awarded in the A. F. F. for excep- 1 tional bravery on the field of bat | tie. The regiments fighting power
 has been officially mentioned by the l American, French and German com
 mands. and it's order and discipline | have elicited the admiration of the | Germans, while it was a part of the
 army of occupation.

ln real life no less than in motion pictures there is no accounting for the parents people have.

In viewing Pauline Frederick a. The Woman on the Index audiences will ask themselves this question anew: What strange trick of fate has made Sylvia Martin, beautiful, sensi- tive. conscientious. the daughter of a man who Is abysmal in his degrada- tion9 And her mother is scarcely better
 John Martin is content to live in a tenement the like of which is only found in the most squalid sections of the big cities, forcing his daughter to hand over every penny of her meagre earnings that the wretched household may be kept together. The mother is a pa assive figure in this. taking no part in her husbands tyranny, yet doing nothing 10 make the home more tol- erable.

Nnrwalk Tires.

Motor buses, with their continual overlooking. put tires to about their hardest test. For that reason the Norwalk Rubber Co. people are espe- cially pleased just now with the news which comes to them in letter from Waterbury Conn.
 William E. Hotchkiss of the Hotch- kiss Co. has written to express his firm belief that Norwalks are the most durable tires on the market-he has run them on his cars from 5000 to 10.- 00o miles. "and they're still going fine More impressive yet is his statement: "A man whose house is right opposite mo as I write this letter has run non skid Norvalk cord on one of his motor buses for il.000 miles, giving it the hardest kin dof service"
 The Norwalk Rubber Co. do not guarantee that such results arc ob- tained with every Norwalk tire. but they claim that such cases are not Sc exceptional as they seem.
