1t Is very difficult to learn what
the words "doughboy" and COB,
really mean. By using a standard
dictionary one finds that dough
boy is defined as "a boiled dump
ling or raised dough-" Now that
definition is enough to dampen the
spirits of any curious and patriotic
seacher after the reason WHY an
American infantryman, wherever he
be found, from Manila to Coblenz.
Is called a "doughboy."
1T Is easy to see why the French
infantryman is known as "poflu" be-
cause the word means, simply.
hairy and all the poilus seem to
nate the sight of razors and desuise
their use., besides, there are no
sharp razors in France, excepting
American razors.)
But doughboy, the American foot
soldier is and always will be.
Then comes even more stubborn
question:; why is the sailor known
by the pet name of "gob?" Here's
the dictionary's evidence: "a beak.
snout, mouth-piece, dab, lump

Interested in riddles, here is some

FOUGHT HUNS IN
AFRICA AND FRANCE
Veteran of Zulu Rebel
lion and World War
Returns to Mother
ENLISTED YOUNG

The home of Mrs. A. NJ. Stewart il
aglow with happiness over the return
of long absent prodigal son, Sgt
Farley George Stewart, who comes
directly from a hospital in England
after fighting in the British Colonial
army in Africa and in France.
Farley had too much pep as boy
to remain in Blackfoot so he ran
away from home at the mature age
| of fourteen and joined some Michi.
gan national guard troops on their
way to the Philippines. He got
aboard ship but was sent back foy
being too young. He went to Eng
land and joined the Cameron High
landers, the Queens own regi-
ment, swearing that he was old
enough to be soldier and that he
hailed, from some English town. He
was in time for the Zulu rebellion
in 1904 and 1905, after which hay
ing finished his three years of SER
vice, he went on the reserve and
knocked around pretty much all of
the British African provinces.
When the big war commenced,
young Stewart volunteered as a
member Of General Botha's famous
scouts and served on all the African
fronts against the Germans.
In 1917 he was with the 18th in
fantry which came up from Africa
with colonial contingent to help
hold the Huns on the Somme. In
the spring of 1918 when the strain
became hardest the coloinals took a
lot of punishment; they were quite
shot up, as the soldiers say, but they
held. That African contingent made
itself famous there in the DEVILS
wood.
Finally in September, Sgt. Stewart
was sent to an English hospital with
shell shock and malaria. For three
he was a patient and now he
Is at home, but he says it doesn't
feel quite natural to be out of a un-
form. Stewart is not yet thirty, but
his life's history would make right
lively reading.
