+. T., IN the Argonne fighting, DR..
Talbot viewed a cross section Of the
country's manhood and found a re-
ligion that will puzzle and amaze the
orthodox church-goer.
In his work, Dr. Talbot collected and
examined the personal effects of men
killed in battle. In ninety percent Of
them he found either a Bible, a scapu-
lar, a prayer book, a cross, a cruel
fix or some other token which, he
says in a letter to national headquar-
ters of the American Legion, proved
that religion was a real element in
the mems lives. And in those days,
the former chaplain continues, the
First was not carrying a single article

Admitting that the average American
is euncommonly timid In the exercise
Of his religion" DR.. Talbot declares
that nevertheless it is there and
needs only to be cultivated and in
telligently used" He summarizes his
refutation of the assertion that the
American soldier was an irreligious
person by the statement: "If sim

which is childllke although it expresses
itself in what Is called chance or

John IS a native of Athens. Greece
When he came to this country s.s
name was John Peter Coutsorfarro-
poulos. On account Of his great dim.
Guilty in making his intensive handle
understood, he cut off several wards
OF it and became John ?. Poulos. He
was drafted for service with tha
Greek army during the first Balkan
war. After being mustered out ba
emigrated TO Amreica and found EN-.
ployment in the copper mines Of Mich
igan.
After a few years in this country he
returned to Greece for a visit. Greece
was having another little scrap then
and he was drafted for the second
Balkan war. He did his bit and left
for America again. America entered
the war just after John got back and
he enlisted for his third fling in the
infantry. He did it well, and after
Uncle Sam had given him his dis
charge, he decided once more to visit
Greece. Result, he's in again!
This time the Greeks have drafted
him for service against the Turks.
John recently appealed to his con
gresham, w. Frank James Of the
Twelfth Michigan district, opining
that he was fed up on wars and that
he wanted to get out Of the army and
be married. Mr.. James has taken up
the case with the State department.
Poulos is a fully naturallzed citizen.
but in the absence Of treaty agree
ments between the United States aud
Greece, his citizenship papers were
not sufficient to prevent his being
drafted.
