ll5TH WON " CROSSES
Members of Regiment
Made up of Marylanders Recon-
mended For Honor.

| Seventy-seyen members of the One
Hundred and Fifteenth Infantry Reg
! iment of the Twenty-ninth Division
were recommended for Distinguished
Service Crosses for their work dur
ing the fighting in the Argonne.
The number of men in the Mary
land infantry unit who received such
| recommendations was nearly double
that of the next nearest competitor,
the One Hundred and Thirteenth, a
New Jersey organization with 40
men whose names were sent forward
for the honor.
This statement was made in New
York by Private William F. Russell,
Jr., young lawyer of Chestertown,
Md, who wa sattached to the Office
of Major John Philip Hill, of Balti-
more, dge-advocate of the Twenty
ninth Division.
Young Russell was in position to
see these recommendations as all
had to pass through division head
quarters. He said the wonderful
showing of the Maryland boys made
him feel proud of the old State. 1t
gave him a chance to kid" the New
Jersey men of the Blue and Gray Dr.
vision, who were always laying claim
to superiority.
The fact that so many Of the Jer-
sey men were recommended for the
high honor shows, says Russell, that
they, too, were doing some fighting.
Still, the larger number of recon-
One Hundred and Fifteenth was the
best unit in the division, he contends
OF course, Russell does not believe
that all the men so recommended will
receive the crosses. The army officf-
ais make a close examination of all
records and indorse awards only in
extraordinary cases of merit. They
often decline to act upon the recon-
mendations Of officers who report
that their men have done exception
al work. Many members of the One
Hundred and Fifteenth already have
received the decorations.
Russell, who had been making
good in legal circles down on the
Eastern Shore, has been sent back
to this country as convalescent. He
is at present in a New York hospital,
but is feeling so fit that he expects
to be sent home in a few days. He
is a graduate CT Washington Col
lege of the class of 1912, and Of the
University of Maryland of the class
of 1916. His legal knowledge prov
ed of great help to the Judge-Advo-
Gates staff.
Russell was a chum of Wilson Rog
ers, of the Baltimore Sun staff, who
for a time was stationed at the
headquarters of the Twenty-ninth
Division, but who afterwaId return
ed to his old regiment, the One Hun
dred and Tenth Field Artillery. Rog-
ers was best man at Russells we'd
ding in Birmingham last May. The
bride was Miss Ethel Gross, of An
niston, Alabama.
Russell told of a lucky escape on
the part of Lieut.. Sam Merritt, for
merly of Company NJ, of the old FIJI
tn Regiment, later in the same COM
panv of the One Hundred and Fiji
teenth and now attached to the d.
vision insurance Office. Russell said
a big shell exploded short distance
from Merritt one day and the frag-
ments hummed all around his head.
1t was a wonder that Sans head was
not blown off, he said.

WHO KINGS
THRONE.

When Chief Porky had watched the
1000 Driver Ants at work for a few
moments, he was astonished. Each
worker had a task to perform, and
that wasn't all-each worker knew
just how to perform his task. There
were hundreds of Ants carrying clay
from the river bank. And when each
stop to talk. but Immediately re-
turned for another load. When each
worker dropped his load there were
others to take it to the builders, who
put it in place. So the foundation
was built for the throne in the Great
Forest. -
While waiting for the throne,
Tinker Bob %journeyed about the for
est doing good. He called on o. Pos
sum and found him building a fine
seat for the throne! But what in
terested Tinker Bob most was how
kindly o. Postum spoke Of Lady Duck
and how sorry he was because he at
tempted to kill her.
AS Tinker left O.. Possum's home,
he heard Jerry the Jay calling. and
a strange sight appeared before him.
There was the Hawk, the Grow, the
Woodpecker and Jerry Jay working
faithfully together on a great carpet
for the throne. They had been YEA
llS every OdN. Inc hawk ana the
Grow few far away to where reeds
and PUSHES grew and brought back
great bundles. The Woodpecker used
his bill to weave them together, and
little Mrs. Wren stitched the ends
that they might not ravel. Jerry
the Jay hunted food for them all and,
with his chatter. kept their spirits
high.
Major Pole Cat was working on a

his coat Of fur every year and this he
always saved. Now it came in handy
to make a soft throne pillow. He,
too, was sorry for what had been in
his heart against Lady Duck. But
Tinker Bob forgave him and Journey

he found them gathering moss for
the wall of the throne, and Lady Duck
had laid an egg for each because
they worked SO diligently. And she
had gathered all the feathers she
could find and made a beautiful
canopy with palm leaves from the
river and feathers from her wings,
to hang owe the throne.
Tinker Bob was glad to see all Of

They were happier than ever before.
No one was afraid to venture forth

Hun Taxi Pirates.

INCREDIBLE as it may seem. the
last American newspaper corre-
spondent to leave Berlin after war
broke out between this country and
Germany thinks American taxicab
drivers have much in the finer points
of the hold-up game to learn from
German taxi bandits.
1T is virtually impossible to find an
honest taxi driver in Berlin" he says.
Most Of them keep far away from
the hotels and, by an understanding
with the porters. they get calls at
distance. Thus they get a running
start on the passengers. and when
cars drive up in front of the hotels
they already have run up large fares.
Sometimes they come only from
as much as 81 in fares charged up and
they then insist 1t took 81 worth of
time for them to come from the sta
ton.
DRIVERS also frequently refuse to
accept passengers unless they are
certain that the trip will end in the
vicinity of a large hotel, where they
can pick up other fares.
las il these difficulties with taxi
drivers were not sufficient. the street
car system in Berlin Is absolutely the
worst in the world. There is no d.
rect communication between the de-
pots and the downtown sections. One
may take a car at a depot and enjoy
nice ride around the town, but
down into it-never. Mark Twain de-
scribed this system thirty years ago.
and, as nearly as I could observe, 1t
has not improved since his time"
When the correspondent landed at
American headquarters he dictated to
Army stenographers on conditions in
Germany for twenty-four hours and
then apologised because he had left
his notes behind and could not make
a full report.
