American soldier. They explained
that army requirements would have
to be materially changed If he were
to be admitted
He tried to do business with the
navy and marine corps but at each
place he met the same rebuffs. Instead
of going back to work, satisfied that
he had done his bit, Collins tried a
new tack.
He closed his business affairs and
started for France. He had heard of
the renowned Foreign Legion, where
brave hearts count for more than large
frames.
At the headquarters of the Foreign
Legion in the shadow of the tomb of
Napoleon, Collins became a private
soldier in the French army.
He was at once appointed pilot Of
an ambulance in the 26th Division. a
shock unit with great fighting rec
ord. Within short time he was in
action on the Picardy front before

Enters American Army.
In October, 1917, the French gov
eminent granted honorable discharges
to all Americans enrolled under the
tri-color, so that they could enlist in
their own army.
Collins knew it was folly to run the
gamut of enlistment officers again, SO
he got in touch with Colonel Leach,
then at Camp Mills, L. |. Leach in
Dictated that he might overlook some
of the enlistment requirements. That's
why Collins boarded a New York
bound steamship one rainy day in the
fall of 1917.
But he reached America to find it
full of disappointments. His first set.
back came when he learned that sud
den orders had sent the 151st to
France. He had passed the outfit in
mid-Atlantic.
He decided to follow 1t back to
France, but getting out of America,
was serious business.

The state department refused to
grant him permission to leave and he
went to Senator Knute Nelson. He
told the senator that he asked only
the privilege of paying his way ia

CHRISTMAS SEALS.

Minnesota's annual Christmas Seal
Sale is on, organization of special
committees to conduct the 1920 drive
for funds with which to continue the
fight against tuberculosis and other
diseases being under way in every
county of the state, it was announced
today by the Minnesota Public Health
Association. The goal of the 1920
Christmas Seal Sale in this state is
a $25O,000 fund, each county con-
centrating its efforts upon selling at
least 10 cents worth of the famous
penny health seals or the equivalent
in health bonds for every one of it's
residents.
Last year Minnesota invested ap-
proximately $4,000 in health thru
the purchase of Christmas Seals and
Health Bonds, leading all states in
the Mississippi Valley in per capita
sales. This fund, spent chiefly thru
the county public health associations
is being used to educate the men,
women and children of Minnesota in
health needs and for actual prevent
i've work.
Disease never quits-neither does
Minnesota" is the war-cry of the
public health crusaders who are de-
termined to surpass last years record
by obtaining the largest per capita
sale of Christmas Seals of any state
in the union. The intensive selling
drive is from December 1 to 10.
More than half of the counties al
ready have appointed seal sale dir
ectors and are completing their cam
paign organizations.

save them from the draft or to get
them commissions in the ordnance or
quartermaster corps" Nelson said
But I'll be doggoned if you aren't the
first that has begged me to be a pri
vate." Nelson was Civil War soldier
and has warm spot in his heart for
the men who carry the packs.
Together they went to the state de
partment to see Secretary Lansing.
What's this I hear about your re-
fusing passport to my friend Col
lins? the senator demanded Mr..
Lansing explained the rules.
Nelson Gets Action.
"Well, rules or no rules, he's going
to get passport, even if it's necessary
for me to go to the White House."
Nelson Numbered. Collins had his
passport in an hour.
In Paris, the future looked dark. No
one seemed to want to tell where the
151st was located. More than a month
was spent in fruitless quest. One day,
he found some members of the regi-
ment on leave. They whispered the
name of the town. 1t was Coetquidan
ga first class fighting man wants a
job with first class fighting unit"
Collins told Colonel Leach.
First class fighting men are inst
what we need" answered the C. o.
The examining officer, Captain John
Rosenwald, who later, died gloriously
in battle, was perhaps little careless
about ascertaining Collins weight and
height Anyway, before might, he was
in uniform. 1t was a little long in
the sleeves and a little liberal in the
legs and the blouse could have done
without quite so much cloth-but it
was the goal he had fought so hard to
reach
On Lorraine Front.
A few days later, the 151st went
into action on the Lorraine front And
as it swung along the road to it's des-
tination, Collins was astride one of
the pieces.
He asked to be assigned to the guns
and in a short time he was mo. 1"
and had the personal satisfaction of
pulling the lanyard that opened the
iron throat of the "Soxainte-Quinze"
to bark back the Yankees answer to
the Boche hymn of hate.
Through all the sanguinary engage
ments in which the 151st played such
an epic part, Collins stuck to his guns.
At Chateau Thierry, in Lorraine, at
st. Mihiel, on the Ourcq. on the Vesle
and in the tangled mazes of the bloody
Argonne he played his small part in
laying down the barrages, those great
curtains of steel that saved thousands
of good young American lives.
With the signing of the armistice,
the 151st moved across the Rhine and
for several months, Collins was a mem.
mer of the Army of Occupation.

David Lawrence, the political dope
writer on the syndicated Democratic
press of the country, seems to think
the withdrawal of HerherE Parsons
from the Republican ranks spells dis
aster for the party. Will some one
kindly tell us whonell this fellow
Parsons really thinks he is? A few
people in New York may have heard
of the fellow but the rank and file
of the country know him not and his
leaving the party will have just as
much effect as if any, other voter had
decided to cast his lot with the oppo-
sition. Just about now, the people
of the country are fed up on Demo-
cratic promises and do-nothing policy
and the landslide Republican-ward
on November will be something
scandalous.

Considerable annoyance has been
caused recently by the absence of
children from school on various pre-
texts. Parents have been wont to
keep their children out on the most
fiimsy excuses and have gotten away
with it. Recently however, change
has been inaugurated and children
must attend school according to the
state laws. Monday evening parent
paid fine of $25 for keeping his
child from school. When brought
before the Municipal Court he be-
came quite fresh and told the court
what he would do and wouldn't do.
His extreme modesty (?) drew a $25
fine. Others are to follow.

1t is with considerable relief that
the people of this city note the return
to the charge here of Rev. John
Blackhurst for another year. During
his years as pastor of the M. E..
Church and for the past year in
charge of both the NJ. E. and Pres
byterian pulpits, he has made a host
of friends who were unanimous for
his return. He is an intensely pat
riotic gentleman and uses Christian
ity instead of religion in his dealings
with his fellow man. The Miner
joins the city in general in voicing
its approval of his return to Ely by
the Conference just closed at St.
Cloud.
