between u.s." Precht smilingly re-
marked to a Ledger representative,
They hide and we seek. They'd
pop up and blaze their guns
time running until they could find
cover again. They would again pop
up and fire into our approaching line.
All we did while I was in active ser
vice, was to run after Fritz and all he
did was to see how far he could keen
his distance from u.s."
Precht said the Germans had their
shells timed so they would explode
just before hitting the ground. y
shell exploding this way, is more dam
gerous and kills more men than one
exploding after it has hit the ground.
according to him. The danger is not
great if the soldier is lying in a she'll
hole and a shell does not explode in the
hole, Precht says. OF course, if it
lights in the shell hole, then there is
very little chance for the soldier. But
when a she'll explodes in the air it
generally gets several.

CARL PRECHT RETURNS
WITH WOUND STRIPE

Carl Precht, son of Mr.. and Mrs. II
A. Precht, who has been in overseas
service since September 5, 1918 ant
in the U. S. service since July T., 1918
arrived in Mexico at 8 O'Clock Friday
morning after having received his
discharge April 10.
Precht was wounded in the leg by
/ shrapnel on the 10th day of October
in the Argonne Forest engagement on
the Verdun sector. He was with the
5th Division, which went into action in
| this sector October 1. Precht saw 1G
days fighting before being wounded
The shrapnel that wounded him kill
| ed one of his comrades who was fight
ing behind him. After being wounded,
he was taken to Base Hospital No. 43
at Blois, France, where he was con-
fined for S3 days.
He sailed for the States on March
II on the North Carolina and landed
at Pier No. / New York, March "a.
From there he was sent to Camp Mer-
rift, N. j., and later sent to Camp
Grant, ILL.,, where he received his dis
charge.
Precht says that while he only saw
16 days active fighting, it was enough
for him. When asked as to whether
he saw many of the Germans, he said
the Allies already had them going
when his Division went in and that
the Huns were going so fast they didn't
get to see much of them. He thinks
they knew which way the war was
going to end at that time. They aim
ed their artillery guns p~oint-blank at
the Americansa and tried to kill just
as many o fthem as they could before
they surrendered.

a high class recital in the auditorium
to a large and appreeiative audience.
The program was well selected and
excellent arranged beginning with the
old classical style of Bach and Bee
thoven down to the ultra modern of
Chadwick, L~ieurance, Ross, etc. From
the opening number, my Heart Ever
Faithful" by Bach, to Sunset" by
Dudley Buck, the listeners followed
every word with genuine appreciation
and delight. Miss Wallace sang
"Tschaikowsky's Aria, Farewell, We
Mountains" (Jeanne Dare a lament,
with great depths of feeling not as
one singing a song but who had a
soulful message to deliver. The
Brahms songs are not generally
known, but Miss Wallace made this
group most interesting and delightful.
Dawn in the Desert" by Gertrude
Ross and the Indian Love Song" by
Lieurance, were especially suited to
Miss Wallaces rich contralto voice.
She sang the whole program with
ease and clarity of enunciation that
were charming. Miss Wallace was
accompanied most ably by Miss Cas-
Ter, who followed the singer with per-
feet understanding and sympathy.
