FRED HE|N1z[LMAN
DIED CALAMITY

In a letter to Mr.. and Mrs. H. L.
'Hetntzelman whose son, Fred L.
Heintzelman, was killed in action on
October I'd, Capt. Warren r. Smith,
OF the 314th Field artillery, tells Of
the circumstances surrounding his
death The letter which was written
December 10Th, Is as follows:
Now that hostilities are over and
the ban has been lifted on censorship,
4 am writing to tell you what q sor.
row the death OF your son, Fred, was
to me and to all the company.
Sergeant Heintzelman was a man
who was beloved by his comrades and
a man who proved under the most
trying condition that he could al
ways be depended on when there was
work to be done.
! will tell you all know Of his
death. On the afternoon OF the Cd Of
October your son and Mechanic Lon
ME Greathouse were at the Regimental
o. r., which was situated on hill 281,
north Of Bethincourt. The Germans
opened fire on the o. P. and a she'll
struck in the trench near the two men
wounding them both. Your son was
badly cut. Mechanic Greenhouse was
seriously injured too. but not 80 badly
shocked. He went into a dugout near.
by where there was an officer and
some men and announced "Poor Fred
Is hurt" then he collapsed. Lieuten.
ant Faherty and the men rushed out
and carried your son in. / had been
down the hill for something or other
and returned at this juncture to find
that the surgeon had also arrived and
was treating the two wounded men.
He said that they were badly hurt.
They were carried to an ambulance
and evacuated as quickly as possible.
Both men bore their pain with great
bravery. You may well be proud OF
your son. He made the extreme sac.
rifice most generously.
Perhaps the thought that you are
the father Of hero will be some con.
ISOLATION to you in your sorrow.

Circuit Court Not Altogetl,.
er Charmed BY Propos.
ed New Arrangement.

Judge Vincent left for Charleston
last night. While away he will nay 4
visit to the governor in an effort to
nave himself appointed as Judge Of
the new Criminal court. AS the old
intermediate court under the terms
OF the act cannot 80 out Of existence
Tor 80 days, nothing in the way ap-
pointment can be expected for some
time. The proposed new Criminal
court Will try criminal cases alone,
sending many civil appeal cases to
the Circuit court which heretofore
have been tried by the intermediate
court and taking from the Circuit
court all criminal cases. The ar
rangement may or may not be satis-
factory. This can only be determined
by giving the new court a trial. Many
complicated civil cases concerning
property rights must Of necessity be
tried by an experienced Judge OF the
Circuit court. It is generally beliey.
ed that the Circuit court prefers an
tntermingling of criminal cases and
does not particularly care for the
many petty appeal cases which the
new Criminal court arrantG lent will
bring to the Circuit court. AS the
Judge Of the Circuit court has consti-
tutional authority to call dts own
grand jury the, possible matter Of the
new Criminal court r,aintaining the
upper hand will not make any troy
bic. The way matters now tsand now
the Circuit court Will be forced to the
dull routine Of countless numbers Of
civil and divorce cases with an unin-
teresting sprinkling Of petty appeal
cases.
The intermediate court claims to
have been trying q large percentage
Of all cases. Generally 1t is the opin-
ion Of many that for -, amount Of
work done by the Intermediate court,
the salary was entirely inadequate.
Before this court was legislated out
o Persistence, an amendment was sng-
gested which would have divided J:e
work Of the intermediate court.
1t has been the pride Of the Circuit
court that not once In six y ars has q
criminal case been appe:'ed to a
higher court.

Beatrice Fairfax Problems Workers
Especially for Washington Women

I GET many letters-hundreds
Of them, in fact-from girls
= who say they 'have nothing
to live for" And / can only tell
them that they make me think Of
the Sinbad story about the man
who walked through the valley
strewn with diamonds, rubies and
precious stones-but saw no way
Of getting past the high mountain
that shut in the valley.
If you've read the story, you
know he did find q way out. And
if you haven't read it, / am not
going to spoil the tale by telling
It to YOU. Go to. a public library,
borrow the book and apply the
moral to your own difficulties.
Everyone walks through the valley
of precious stones, but few have
the ingenuity to get away with
any of them.
In the first place youth is the
greatest Of all gifts. Youth no
matter where it may be cast-in
the tenements, in the slums, even
in the "moated grange" Given
youth, plus intelligence anc am
bition and the result is bound to
be-Success.
But the result is bound to be
failure, if you persist IN wasting
youth grieving for something you
haven't got, something very likely
you would be miserable if you did
get.
Little Opportunity in the Past.
In your mothers day opportuni-
ties for girls were fewer than they
are today. In your grandmOther's
da oppoFtunities for women were
restricted to getting married. And
a girl had to take whatever came
along, poor thing, there was very
little choice open 70 her. She
married the widoweF with eight
children; she married the snuffy
old bachelor who needed a nurse,
or she married the scapegrace
whose wildcat crop had become a
proverb.
Or II she missed any Of these
doubtful blessings, she went to
live as an unpaid helper in the
house Of some married relative.
And no matter how hard she work.
ed and how much good she accom-
plished, she was regarded as q
failure because she had not mar
ried.
But today any girl who isn't too
impatient to gather all the bless
lngs Of life by the time she Is seY-
sntsen or eighteen, has a very
good chance Of making a success
fuI career for herself and marry
ing well IN the bargain. Young
women who are willing TO fit them
selves for positions Of impoFtanee
may easily earn $500 to $1,000 q
year.
