HUNDRED YEARS
BEHIND TINES
Walter Watson, Returned Overseas
Soldier, Son of Mrs. Weeks, Says
French Are Behind Times
IHE TELLS OF MANY BATTLES
Passed Through Fight at Chateau
Thierry Without Scratch-Wound-
ed at Battle Of the Marine

Walter Watson, son of Mrs. Al.
| Weeks, arrived in Denison Saturday
from the hospital at FIT. Des Moines
on thirty days furlough which he is
spending here visiting at the home OF
his mother. Walter was only recent
! ly returned from overseas duty and
is now undergoing treatment at the
hospital for a wound received in the
last battle Of the Marine.
He enlisted. March ~, 1917 with
Roy Miller and on June 9, 1918 went
| to France with the S7th Division made
up mostly Of Pennsylvania troops.
1t was indeed a coincidence that he
was transferred to this division as his
father served with Pennsylvania reg
iment throughout the civil war.
Walter first saw action at Chateau
Thierry but went through that entire
engagement without receiving a single
scratch. Later his division was trans
ferred to the Marine sector and it was
here that he received wound in the
leg. In action in the Argonne sector
he, was gassed and even now has not
recovered from the effects Of those
deadly fumes.
In an interview with a Review re-
porter yesterday, Walter stated that
he would not have missed the eXper-
fence for anything but that he is glad
| to be back home again. All of the
American boys are anxious to get
back to the states he says, and most
of them will remember France as one
sea Of mud where the sun seldom
shines. The French are hundred
years behind the times, Walter says,
and it IS amusing to the American
boys to see them farming. Men and
women pull the plows through the
fields and the produce is pulled to the
village in two-wheeled carts. 1t is

RELIEF SHIP HELD
 UP BY ARCTIC ICE

Wales, the weSternmost point of the American continent about four hours west of Seattle.
 Upon this trip the vessels coal sup ply ran low and the Bear had to put back from Cape Prince of Wales to Nome for rccoalng. Leaving Nome the vessel began it's journey to Point Bar TOW. Kotzebue sound was entered and stop was made at the village, where the Society of Friends had excellent missions and then the Bear went north to kiyalina. where no mission fields are established, but which few missionaries visit at intervals. From this point Dr. Marquis went to Point Hope, which until recently was one of the most famous whaling stations in the arctic regions. From there the great but futile attempt northward was made toward Point Barrow.
 Dr. Marquis on his return trip gave special study to the conditions as left hy the influenza epidemic. As result he brings back with him pitifuI stories of the terrible rayages wrought by this epidemic among the ESkimos.

What with suit skirts and bleuseS. separate skirts and bloases and one piece aII=day froeks, business women and others may achieve q good many variations of apparel with the mini mum outlay for garments The same blouse answers for several skirts. the same skirt for several blouses. and variety comes of these combinations sandwiehed between days when blouse and skirt are replaced with the one piece frock. The character of the toilette depends upon the choice of styles in blouses and skirts, and the tendency of the styles is away from severely tailored things.
 The mannish. high-eolIared shirt waist, however. is never entirely out of style. and it's virtues are empha- sized when it Is occasionally worn or alternated with blouses that are less severe II is trim and businesslike, and we notice these attributes and ad- mire them more when not brought too often to our attention. ShirtwaiStS are, naturally. made of materials that stand laundering well without any special care in 1t while blouses of more delicate fabrics have to be washed or otherwise cleaned with care, from the nature Of the material.
