CANADIAN BOY HERO
WILL Spend A few
DAYS IN THIS CITY
Boy Only Fifteen Years of Age Looks
Like Man OF Forty - Rayages OF
War Shown In Face Of
Hero Lad.

Connie Levender, of Carnia, Ontario,
is spending a few days in Maysville on
his trip through the country and has
interested many about the Kentucky
Hotel, where he is staying, with his
stories of the great world conflict in
Europe.
At ten years of age Levender left his
home as mascot drummer boy with the
famous Princess Pat regiment and
was with them in their great battles in
France and Flanders. At eleven years
of age he was given rifle and he soon
won medal as a sniper. He was bay
oneted, gassed twice, wounded with
shrapnel and finally was shell shocked
and lay in hospital at The Hague for
four months in an unconscious condi-
rion.
Upon his Return home after the
war, Connie was not recognized by his
family. The ravages of the great war
have made lasting impression upon
the lads features and one would take
him to be between 35 and 40 years of
age. He carries with him documents
to prove his age and his connection
with the Canadian troops and one cita-
tion from an officer says: He was
fearless. He had = remarkable vision
at night-the sight of a cat He did
outpost duty. He was in raiding par
ties, In big offensives and defensive en-
gagements. saw him in action, time
and again, quick and with judgment
and warlessness of man."
Upon the advise of physicians the
lad Is spending his time in the open
and is doing much hiking over the
country. He will probably be in Mays
vile couple of days and while here
would like to find some light employ
ment by means of which he can make
enough money to get him on his way
toward the South where he will spend
the winter. Levendef can be reached
at the Kentucky hotel and will do any
little odd jobs to make piece OF
money He is not begging but he is
endeavoring to make his way by means
of light work which he is able to DO.

With eggs at the price they are it seems a shame to waste any, so If little of the yolk does get into the white to be beaten for frosing don't despair. Dampen a clean towel in a little cold water and dip if into the yolk discoloring the white. The yolk will cling to the damp cloth and can all be removed.
