An army captain then stepped in

best friend the women Of America ever
had" The crowd gave the cheer with
a will, but there was no attempt then

After the watch fire" had been put

MiIIers Now Permitted to
Buy Wheat from Storage

Nebraska millers who were given
a scare, thinking that perhaps the
government was going to take all
the wheat offered on the Omaha
market have found relief in the an
nouncement that Uncle Sam is GO
ing to permit them to buy for their
needs from the stocks in storage.
In the Omaha terminal elevators
at this time the accumulated wheat
stocks held by the government ag-
gregates some 100000 bushels II
appears that the government has
figured that 1t is not going to need
all of this for export and as result
millers have been notified that they
will be permitted to take over such
quantities as they may need. In
doing so they will be required to
pay the original price, storage
charges and a reasonable profit. The
government bought this wheat all
the way from 500 up to 500 a
bushel, the price depending upon
the quality and kind.

Dropped Like Wheat in

Thursday wearing two wound chew
rons for injuries received in the

indicted into the overseas regiment
Immediately upon his arrival at the
training camp. He landed in France
the first week in August and fought
with the 9th infantry division.
It was after having gone over the
top three times that Peacock was in
jurd by flying stones and shrapnel
when 45-centimeter shell burst a
few feet from him, killing three men
outright, who were with him. Pea
cock was buried in ashell crater be-
meath stones and debris for three
hours before he was taken TO first

boys helped enliven it. The Ger

met the cold steel Of the American
troops. Twice when German troops
attempted to rush us in mass forma-

machine guns and they fell like
wheat in hail storm. When the
dirty dogs felt the grit we had in Us,
they turned toward Berlin or. shout

Peacock rallied between life and
death in a hospital in France for
two months besides two weeks that
he spent in a hospital in New York
