MUCH WOUNDED VET HIKES TO HOSPITAL HERE
Veteran of First Division Who
 Enlisted at 15, Bound for Prescott in Transeontinental Walk, Word From Des Moines
CFrom Sundays pailyl

Walking in transcontinentai hike from Chicago to Prescott, Howard H. Johns, 21, of Chicago, much wounded ex-service man, IS headed for the Veterans hospital at Whipple Barracks, according to accounts i'll the Des Moines, Iowa, newspapers of May 26th, clippings Of which have just reached this city. Johns reach ed Des Moines on the 26th, and after short stop in that city, is again on his way to Prescott, where he intends to apply for admittancc to the hospital He will probably reach Prescott before long.
 Johns was formerly a supply ser geant of Company c, Twenty-eighth infantry, First division, according to the Des Moines accounts. Enlisting at the age of Is, Johns got into the First division, which was one of the first to reach France, Johns landing there June 26,. 1917. According to the accounts ill the Des Moines papers, "the former. sergeant has a bone in his jaw put there by Mile. A. lLe Dorgenni, French surgeon, who devoted her time during the war to making over faces fdisfigured serv- ice men. Deadly chlorine phosgene gas ruined one lung and injured the other, hearing in one ear is complete ly ruined, and Johns had I6 stitches taken in a wound in his forehead. ''
 "He will be taken care of at the hospital when he reaches Arizona, but no transportation would be fur nished him. Johns will hike to San Francisco and then back AGO miles to the hospital. He left Chicago last Thursday and expects to be on the way between four and five months.
 Johns had served for more than two years at the front overseas be- fore being injured. While taking a German pill box single-handed he received the wounds. The pill box was manned by three German sol diers and was protected by a ma chine gun. While returning from No Mans Land to his troops with the three prisoners high explosive shell burst nearby, killing one of the Ger mans and injuring Johns.
 For 56 hours he lay on the field unconscious before he was picked up by the band company of his organ lization, acting as strctchcr bearers. After being taken to the hospital he was unconscious for six more hours and was blind for three months.
 Because Johns attack on the Ger man machine gun was taking chances unnecessarily" according to Iarmy regulations, three charges were filed against him; first, leaving his men without command; second, not notifying anyone where he was go- ing, and third, military insubordma- ton. Because of the seriousness ot his wounds the charges were dropped
 Before being wounded Johns was Ian instructor at the first corps Of ficers' school at Gondrecourt. He also served in the intelligence de partment, and was one Of the men securing information which resulted :n the capture of Cantigny.

LARGE AUDIENCE
 HEARS RECITAL
fFrom sarurday,s pailyl

Over 200 people last night crowd ed the Y. w. C. A. building to hear the first of a series of recitals given under the auspices of the Business and Professional Women's club, pre- senting Mrs. Marie Vance Ryland, pianist, assisted by Mrs. Harry T. Southworth, dramatic reader; Miss Ethel McMurchie, soprano, and Percy V. Chbborn, violinist. The large audience, many of whom were con- pelled to stand because of the crowd ed condition of the room, gave a heartening response to this first recital to be held in Prescott in some time.
 Mrs. Ryland presented some diff cult numbers from classic and mod ern composers. Her rendition of the Sonata in C minor of Beethoven was done with a fine breadth of style and warmth of tone. The ancient Italian formality of Scarlatti's Pastorale was done with dantiness and finish. The Polichinelle of Rachmaninoff, vivid and colorfully Russian, proved among the most popular of Mrs. Ryland's selections, and was warmly applauded. This was followed by charming Romance" by Sibelius.
 Mrs. Southworth proved exception ally delightful, presenting a clever original arrangement of an imper- sonation, Out at the Ball Game" An encore demanded, Mrs. South worth responded with an entertain | ing Sotch poem, "Cuddle Doon." 1 The second section of the program began with a Mcdowell prelude and an etude by the American composer, both of which were given by request, and were very well received. Three delightful original compositions by Mrs. Ryland followed, The first, serenade, pleased with its charming melody. Hunor was latent in her "Crienta1e ton Theme. from Lotus Land'), parody on the modernists suggested by the compositions of Cyril Scott Both of these numbers were well applauded.
 Miss Mary Fully, who was to have appeared as violinist, was out of town, and Percy V. Clibborn occu- pied her place on the program. In the Meditation from "Thais" and the Intermezzo from "Cavalieri Rusti- cana" he proved hiss ability with the bow. His tones were strong ana firm.
 Following a Melocy by Schumann and a Chopin Valse, Mrs. Ryland's Lullaby dedicated to her daughter, was given This charging melody was sung delightfully."- by Miss Ethel McMurchie, whose clear soprano notes were supported by Mrs. Ky land at the piano and violin obHga to played by Mir. Clibborn. The composition proved among the popu- lar numbers of the program, which was concluded with difficult con cert etude of Lizt's, especially we'll rendered.
 Much praise was expressed to Mrs. Ryland, Mrs. Southworth, Miss Mo Murchie and Mir. Clibborn, following the program, for their excellent artistry.
 A second recital is being arranged by tlrc club, to be given soon. Pa tronesses of last nights affair were Mesdaines LeRoy Anderson, J. H. Morgan, A. J. Herndon, E. A. Kast- ner, Alfred H. Gale, L. C. Derrick, lC. T. Joslin, Lester Ruffner, s. H. Martin, Dixon Fagerberg, Harry Heap, J. Link Smith, C. H. Hindercr and Richard Lamson.

Don't Keep Too Many Hens

During the last three years
there has been very marked -
crease in the interest shown in
poultry. In 1920 there were a very
few Culling Demonstrations held
IN Wayne County. Mr.. Dolan, our
County Agent, held a large number
OF them in 1921 and the work is
IN full sway again this fall
Those of us who have attended
these demonstrations have heard
how important it is to feed prop
erly and know that we can prof
-tably make two or three cuttings
each year. The poultry owner
should by this time have sold the
bulk of the loafers. About the
last of this month we will begin to
think of feeding and housing the
birds for the winter. This brings
up two points: selecting the pull
lets and selecting the hens for
breeding next spring.
Our knowledge at present is not
sufficient to enable us to foretell
accurately the future of a pullet.
They can be judged for appearance
and type by eye. Their body con-
formation must be felt. 1t is
safe to say that a pullet with
deep, broad body, long breast bone
and one which holds the breadth
of back we'll toward the tail has
Egg Laying Capacity" The under
developed, slow-growing and imma-
ture pullets will not lay until well
into spring. These are the ones
which should be sorted out and sold
at once or marked for later sale.
The second point, that of select
ing the breeders for next spring is
easily solved by picking out the
best hens in the flock. They are
the ones which are still laying or
the last ones to start their mott
The number of good breeders
plus the good pullets will determine
the number of old hens for the
final culling. Housing space is al
ways limited and it does not pay
to overcrowd a flock in the winter.
Mark the chickens now for you
will be too busy when it comes
time to house them.
