For the second time in the history of the trap, Point Colpoys trap of the Petersburg Packing Co.,, was an un- welcome host last week to whale The first visit of a whale to this trap occurred a number of years ago and was made by a baby whale. The big mammal in the trap this week was much larger and measured about 35 feet in length The watch man in charge of the trap used up several boxes of ammunition attempt ing to kill the unwelcome visitor, with no effect, and Oscar Nicholson left to supervise ridding the trap of the whale. It is not an uncommon occurance for whales to be caught in fish traps, but trap owners are thankful that it does not happen very often. Only a few minutes would be required for an infuriated whale to completely wreck fish trap that cost anywhere from five to fifteen or twenty thousands of dollars. Only slight damage was reported to the Point Colpoys trap by the whale Iemeshed there.

Lieut.. Col. X. j. Hampton of the

there are now 1,627 unknown bodies

that there were 63 unknown bodies

at Bony, .Aisne, France; , in the
Suresnes Cemetery. near Paris, and
24i in the Aisne- Marine, at Belieau,
Aisne, France.
The figures show that there are
1 .652 unknown in the eight permanent
American cemeteries in Europe, and
it is likely that many of the men listed
as missing" since the armistice by
relatives and friends in reality have
found a last resting place in one of
these graves.
Marble markers, the Star of David
for Jewish veterans graves and a
cross for Christians graves, are being
placed by the Graves Registration
Service on all graves in those eight
cemeteries. For the unknown, per
haps the missing" still being sought,
this inscription will be set forth:

American Soldier, Known But to God. "
Thus the quest goes on for the
missing veterans, whose number no
man can tell, ever ceaselessly and Wig

point, in an effort to bring back the

There is an agreement among soclal
agencies. based on experience, that a
transient will not be sent on to
another community merely because
he wants to go there without first
investigating as to whether or not
that il his home.
Miss Sutton issues warning
against veterans, particularly those
with tuberculosis, going to Western
climates for their health, without
sufficient resources. The Red Cross
chapters in those communities. she
saws, have not positions for them,
and a very grave problem is being
created in the Southwest, as the new
c0mers are without financial backing
and are unable to work. She advises
that they stay near home, and dis
counts the value Of climate alone as a
curative treatment. The communities
that are now particularly perplcXed
with this type Of problem are Phoenix
and Tuscon, Ariz.. and Deming and
Alberqueque, n, Mex.
