ROOSTER WINS FIGHT WITH
 JITNEYBUS; PUNCTURES TIRE

s Jeanette, Pa.-An actual combat between a gamecock and a jitneybus was enacted in the road near here and the bird was the winner
 On that eventful day the game cock was crossing the road when the warning honk of the horn was sounded. Did the rooster turn m startled fright? To the everlasting credit of the fighting reputation or the game bird it stood its ground. When it seemed that front wheel would crush the gamecock the de- liant bird flung itself at the side of the tire, dug it's spurs deep in the rubber and hung on. Round ana round it went with the wheel until the driver had to stop with pune tured tire.
 Then, marching proudly away. the gamecock, minus several feathers, and perhaps with a bruise or two, and certainly with twinkle in it's eyes. was followed by the impreca- tions of the autoists, who lost a good forty-fiye minutes in mending the punctured tire

Then we got on the train. Of course we did not know where we were going until we arrived at Le- mans and went beyond there to a small village where we spent few days. Then we left there for this camp. We are now at the forward ing camp just out of Lemans, where we have been for three weeks

Even more amazing than the dis play of perseverance and mathemati- cal skill involved in computing in- comes to irregular are the facts that bell boys tips amounted to $6,000 and a boot blacks profits and tips aggregated $1S,000.
