Captured Hun Says He Never
Saw Such a Perfect
Barrage.
IRIsHMEN SAVED THE DAY
Famous New York Infantry Regiment
Did Great Work at Champagne
Took Terrible Toll Of Death
From Enemy.

New York.-Over the rail Of the
hospital transport Sierra as it came
in one day recently leaned Roy Davis
Of Chicago. He vas a soldier of the
One Hundred and Forty-ninth artil-
lery, formerly the First Illinois, in
command of H. j. Reilly. He yelled
down to those on the police boat:
"Tell the people Of New York the
old Sixty-ninth Ga famous Irish 1nfan-
try regiment in the New York Nation
al Guard, now the One Hundred and
S~ixty-fifth, "a part of the Rainbow di-
visiOn) saved the day at the Cham
payne. The people of France are
wildly enthusiastic over the One Hun
dred and Sixty-ffth, and, believe me,
they have reason to be.
"We followed the Sixty-ninth up at
the battle of Champagne, laying down
their barrage for them. 1t got hot as
hell behind those boys and then hot
ter and it was just as bad in front.
The Poilus started to go back and
yelled to the One Hundred and Sixty
fifth to turn and follow them.
"sTo hell with thatI yelled back
the Sixty-ninth. We're going right
on And, believe me, they went right
on and saved the day.
Exacted Terrible Cost.
1.-THE gray-green uniforms strewed
the ground In front of the Irish posi-
lions. One walked on a carpet Of
dead bodies after the attack was
hurled back. The S~ixty-ninth was cut
up, but they exacted terrible cost
from the Boche."
1t was of the One Hundred and For
ty-ninth field artillery that a captured
German said:
LET me see those men who are be-
hind those guns I never saw such a
perfect barrage in all my life."
One Of the most popular officers on
the transport was the Rev. Ray f.
Jenney, the fighting chaplain of De
catur, ILL.,, who had four wound stripes
his sleeve. When all the officers
of a company in his regiment had been
shot down in the big drive at st. Mi
hiel he led the men on and brought
back a trophy in the shape of a silver
mounted Luger pistol that he took
from a German commander when his
company smashed up a machine gun
Bear Distinguishes Himself.
Among those wearing the Croix de

Illinois of the Thirty-ninth infantry.
He is twenty-five years old. On July

manner. 1t was before Chateau-Thier-

Uniforms on the opposite bank of the
Vesle were believed to be Germans

ANOTHER SPEED RECORD.
The United States beat every other
nation engaged in the general world
war in preparing and organizing an
army and sending it across 5000 miles
of submarine infested waters. The
United States made greater progress
in the first six months after it entered
the war than England made in the
first two years. The speed of the Uni
ted States surprised III allies and
paralized our enemies.
And now another speed record has
been made. On November 1 soldiers
were being sent across the ocean at
the rate of 100000 per month, despite
the influenza epidemic. On November
II the armistice was signed, after a
number of transports had been loaded
with soldiers to be sent to Europe.
These were unloaded and the return
movement started. Yesterday Secre-
tary Baker announced that 100000
soldiers had been discharged from the
army since November II and that in
five weeks 1,000,0 900 soldiers will be
discharged. America is setting a new
speed record in getting back to normal
conditions.

GOOD A PAY.

How many farmers know how
much an average working day, fig
ured in dollars and cents. is worth to
him and how much he earns on the
average by his own individual efforts
each working day during the year?
1t would be interesting to figure the
value of a day as a part of the over
head expense of your farming opera
tons. 1t would necessitate keeping
rather an exact account of the years
farming operations and a segregation
of the propfits and loss columns. 1t
would no doubt be very surprising to
the average farmer TO know how valu-
able his time really is. 1t ought to
start him to thinking about the many
valuable days of lost time used up
hauling his grain and farm products
over the present system Of roads in
the Potlatch. The saving in time
alone during the fall of the year when
time is so very valuable, would go a
long way toward minimizing the cost
of building roads fit to travel over.
You can soon arrive at a rough esti-
mate of what a day is worth to your
farming operations. Then multiply
Hhis amount by the days lost on ac-
count Of bad roads and you will find
there is a big leakage in our bust
ness operations on the farm.-Ken-

RAILROAD SHOPS

Get Laid Off.
END OF FISCAL
YEAR RETRENCAMENT
Master Mechanic Hogan Says

YEAR RETRENCI1MENT
Maater Mechanic Hogan Says

Much excitement has prevailed in
Paris the last week on account of the
laying off of mere than an hundred
employees in the car, carpenter, ma.
chine, round house, and other de-
partments.
Some rumors have been afoat that
it was an effort on the part of the
railroad company to break up" the
organization of the employees, etc.
However, according to Master Me-
chanic Hogan, there is nothing to the
rrmors. The 'lay-off" is simply a
matter of retrenchment, and it will
0e recalled that this is effective ev-
cry year to a more or less extent be-
cause Of the season Of light business
during the summer months.
Another detail to consider is that
the railroad fiscal year is coming to
A close June Both, and in the case of
the l. & N. it seems necessary to
make all the reduction in force and
consequently in payroll that is pos
sible for the remainder of the month
of June in order to make earnings
and expense ends meet.
According to Mr.. Hogan, after the
yearly accounts are closed at the end
Of June, the force will oe gradually
reinstated, and Mr.. Hogan insists it
is now merely temporary one, and
brought about by the above mention
ed conditions. AS a matter of fact,
the laying off of men was agreeable
TO the organization of shop employ
ees as per the heads of the union, who
preferred to lay off the men of the
younger seniority rather than main
tain the entire organization and cut
down the number Of working days
per week. In other words the num-
Der of hours worked would be the
same, regardless of the number of
men, under the new schedule of total
hours worked until June 30th
The retrenchment measure is effec,
tive over the entire L. & N. system,
and is an order of the federal admin
istration.
