That was where those boys shone.

After the Aisne had become an

invited to Pershing's birthday par
ty at st. Mihiel on the 18th of
September. They did themselves
noble at that place which was pie

in the Argonne. That began al
most too soon after the st. Mihiel

ember Alex saw the whole thing
through. He had quite some trouble
with leaky gas mask and still
carries that mark Of the burn on
the side of his face, souvenir
that no doubt he would rather do
without yet one to be proud Of.
Still when one thinks what Corp
oral Alex and that fighting artiI-
lery gang Of his went through, it
is wonder that he didn't come
home in sections instead of one
hunk.
After the Armistice started the
fighting in Paris over the peace
terms, this gang held down a part
Of the American sector in Germany.
1t was early in August Of 1919 that
the government finally got around
to turn the gang back to civilian
life. He served for over two years
and stayed with the show till the
final curtain. If you doubt my word
just ask Tom McGregor up at the
barber shop about this guys record;
he'll tell you some real stuff. Nc
Gregor and McGregor sure is a
hard combination to beat and for
the Jerrys when they bumped up
against them in a rather playful
mood they were just one damn set

To look at the efficient young

one would never suspect that he
has a military background that is
very hard to equal. Altho he
doesn't resemble any historical fire
eater that | am acquainted with,
he is nevertheless very much, ac-
cording to his army career. A vol
unteer of almost the first group to
go from the county, he eventually
landed in the 18th Field Artillery.
With him were other Villas county
men, Alex McGregor, Wilbur Knox,
Ed Benson They toured France
together. Just the mere mention
Of the name Of their outfit is
enough to tell any overseas man
what they went through. This
artillery gang of Toms was hitched
to the Fourth Division, Regular
Army. 1t chased Germans al over
France. To give you a few Of the
major offensives just listen. They
went in first in the famous quiet
sector up around the old town Of

customed to the quietness they
were railroaded to the Marine. They
peppered Jerrys behind the Marine,

is without a doubt Hugo Merical
30S2750, Private in the 261st Casual
Company A. E. F.
To begin with, he was seasick,
not at all uncommon but one
would think that enough for any
ordinary man but not Hugo, for
on top of that he took up with flu,
By the time he and the flu were
we'll acquainted he and his ship
managed to reach Brest. He was
toted off ship to very slow music.
in other words he was as good as
dead. But he recovered in spite Of
the care that he received in the
hospital at that Sunny Port. Then
he started out to find his outfit.
Off and on he caught up with it
but not for long.
In the five months or so that he
spent overseas he casually visited
| almost every part of France. Ask
HIM about a certain district in
Paris, Lyon, Nantes or Rouen and
he will tell you that it is just back
of the Jail or adjacent to the mill
tary police headquarters. He knows
the jails very intimately and what
was better he knew how to keep
out of them. He had them spotted
long before they were aware Of it.
To a person who has never been a
casual in France, the life of such a
person would naturally seem rather
like tramp. Well to a certain eX-
tent that is true but it is one Of
the most fascinating lives that the
A. E. F. had to offer. 1t was very
popular existence after the ARMS
tice
Hugos partner for a time in his
wanderings was George Hayden of
Eagle River but George couldn't
quite keep up with Hugo, he had
to finally stick with one outfit.
Hugo at last attached himself to
one outfit long enough to come
back to the States with it. If the
war hadn t been over and he had
good chance Of a discharge, he
probably would have taken up his
wanderings again on this side.
Perhaps not exactly the sort of
man who goes in for Congressional
Medals and Croix de Queries and
such trinkets and thereby wins
wars and lives in history, he is
nevertheless a distinguished repre-
sentative of a we'll marked class in
the army. He saw his opportunity
and he took advantage of it. | al
most forgot to say that the war
was over and the Armistice signed
before Hugo was discharged from
the hospital at Brest. He was not
a deserter by any means, only a
casual.

ing time is 900 hours. If flown in
straight line, this time would
have taken him around the world
twice; the time Of the world flyers
being about three hundred hours
actual flying time.
In the summer Of 1918 he was in
a six ton bombing plane flying over
the Gulf of Mexico. These planes
are regular he-men affairs. They
carry enough bombs to wreck a
good size town, five or six machine
guns, have a wing spread of
ninety-six feet and run by twin
Liberty motors. They were flying

The old Gulf just flew up to meet
them. They never found much of
the plane. Three Of the fellows
were killed but John was picked up
without a scratch but no doubt
with few grey hairs.
Then again he was in a plane
which with two others was on a
Navigation tour out over the Gulf.
One Of the planes was forced down

self to such an extent that it was
as helpless as the first. They waited
out there in the middle of nothing
but water for twelve hours till
they were picked up by a sub
chaser sent out by the third plane.
Another time they were up about
500 hundred feet and their plane
caught fire from a busted gas line.

1t isn't a sensation lived through
by many. This gang came down,
put the fire out and were ready for
more.
One of the favorite sports down
at Pensacola is surf bathing. John
was out sporting around in the
surf one day and after some little
struggle succeeded in getting out
quite a distance. Finally he thought
he would go back; but something
told him that he wasn't making
much Roadway in the right direc-
ton. He was being carried out to
sea faster than he could swim
back, so he slumped back and
rested. Out some little distance a

was pie for those boys. And then
they were among the first to
tackle the Meuse-Argonne, the
greatest battle in American his
tory. Just to mention that fight
is enough. That lasted until Lud-
endorf threw up the sponge on the
eleventh Of November. The next
few months were spent pleasantly
holding down the COblenz Bridge
head ON the Rhine. Tom didn't get
home till the third of August 1919,
nearly a year after the Armistice

give the soldiers the icy stare and

He enlisted with the first large
bunch that went from Eagle River
and III the course of few months
landed in France in plenty time to
get in on most of the big affairs

benefit of the Yank.
Alex hammered Jerrys all the
way from the Marine to the Aisne

Health Center Day to
Be Thursday, Apr. 80
REGULAR DATE TO BE RESUMED
NOW THAT THE ROADS
ARE OPEN

Mother and baby health centers for
Villas county, suspended since Deem
Der owing to winter travel conditions,
are to be resumed on Thursday, Apr.
80, the state board of health an
nounces. The first center will be held
at the court house in Eagle River.
Other center dates for Villas coun-
ty have been arranged for May %
and June Is.
The staff will consist of DR.. Eva
F. Johnson, physician, and Miss Anna
II. Mccarthy, health center nurse.
1t is hoped that mothers will fol-
low faithfully the directions given,
whether for medical measures or nu-
tritional attention, that the center
may yield the maximum benefit. Ser
vices of the center are without
charge.
Fewer babies are dying in Wiscon-
sin from preventable causes then
used to be the case, the state board
of health has shown from the vital
records There isknow a concerted eff
fort also to reduce the dangers at
tending the maternal crisis, which
have kept the death rate high for
Wisconsin mothers Wisconsin has
less cause for pride in this record
than in. her infant death trend. Elk
pectant mothers are urged to register
at the center.
The county health centers, together
with the Child Welfare Special are
furnishing facilities where mothers in
Wisconsin rural districts may bring
their children for examination and adj
vice, and where prospective mothers
may profit similarly from instruction
received. Only well children under s
years ere desired for these health sur
veys.
