The Empire Cooperating With American Legion in
 Solving Wars Mysteries.

Scores Of cases where American soldiers are reported to have been soen by friends after being reported officially dead by the War Depart ment have come to light in the American Legions campaign to clear away the uncertail surroundings Of the fate of missing sons of heart broken parents in all parts or the United States. Such cases predom- mate among the more than 2.O0o mysteries of the war which The Empire. in cooperation with the Am crican Legion Weekly, is appealing to. It's readers to clarify.
 Fred G. Pippert sailed for France September 19, 1918, from Camp Cor don where he was member o1 Company c. 4th Replacement Regi- ment. In December 1918 his parents received official notification of his death on October 3. at Brest. France. One of the soldiers friends is re- ported to have seen him alive and we'll on October H. 1918. Later the War Risk Insurance Bureau reported that he died on September 2, which is known to be incorrect, Red Cross representatives made search ot all the hospitals in the United States but found no trace of Pippert.
 Anyone having any information about the case is asked to forward it to MT. and Mrs. Adam Pippert, Dysart, Iowa.
