¢ re HIDES IN SHELL * .\ HOLE 7 WEEKS British Soidier Survives Most ‘Thrilling War Experience. —— 48 DECORATED FOR VALOR Subsists on Tins of Bully Beef Collect- ed at Night From Dead Bodies— {Feigns Death to Avoid Capture When Huns Visit Shell Hole and . Finally Succeeds in Crawling Back . td His Own Lines, ~ If you have been thinking that “dis- -tinguished service’ on.the battlefield Means one grand dash and then a quiet -Foom, an attentive nurse and pleasant |’ recuperation, consider the case of Pri- yaté J. Taylor, whose valor is briefly ‘recited in a late issue of the official ‘supplement to the London Gézette. ‘This official list of soldiets cfted for decorations always cairies a short de- ‘scription of the act. of valor for ‘which the citation is made. * These two paragraphs accompany announcement of the award of the dis- ‘tinguished conduct medal to Private /Taylor. “Having been cut off with his com- -pany, he recetved a bullet in the thigh, causing a compound-fratture. To avoid capture he crawled Into a shell hole, where he remdltied for a-period of over seven weeks, during. the whole of which. time the surrounding district was subjected to a severe bom- bardment by our artillery. He-subsist- .ed on tins of bully beef collected at night from dead bodies, and water which he obtained in a waterproof cap. “after some weeks three of. the en- emy visited his shell hole, but by feign- ing death he avoided capture and-even- -tually succeeded in crawling back to our lines—a distance of ‘some 900 “yards.” In a hospital near London,.where he 4s recuperating, Taylor diffidently om- plified the story of his terrible exper! ences, Robbed Dead for Food. “It was during one of our attacks upon the Hindenburg line,” he- said. “We had gone over the top, two com. panies of us. We were met by a ter rific enemy fire and the fellows wére dropping like ninepins. I was knocked , out. It, must have been. a@ coupje of; days before I recovered cansciousness. I found myself in a shell hole with, another man who. was -wounded but! could move freely. During the days and part of the nights the bombard. ment kept up. Shells fell all around, “but none happened to drop in ow shell hole. At night Peters crept out | and foraged aitong thé dead for ‘scrape of beef, line rations and their water bottles. After two or three days i rained. We collécted ,water in out| caps. ; “That sort of existence lasted for , over. five weeks, I was getting weaker and weaker. One night Peters crawled ind did not come back. That left Ine Without aid. Plays "Possum; Fools Huns. “Next day a party of Germans came into my shell hole. One lifted my! leg—luckily not the broken one or I'd have yelled—but they thought I was! dead. I was covered with mud and Jooked like the other bodies covering! ‘the ground. During the next fortnight I managed to live on the reserve beet ‘Peters had collected. Then, feeling’ that nothing worse could happen, 1) Fesolved to try to get into our lines. ‘It was an inky.night. First I crawled mistake right into a German line. ‘They didn't hear me, so I turned back} \and inched along for an hour, Then -[ got into some barbed wires. Iwas a@ mass of cuts, blood and rags before AV got through. Just then a Verey (ght shot up. .I saw a man peering Over a trench. He was about to shoot when I shouted. Three of then¥ cime out: and dragged me. into our own trenches. Before the war Puylor was a factory hand. He is recovering rapidly and looking forward to his return to thé trenches. x Remove Teutonic Eagles. Because they too nearly resemble the, German eagle sometimes used as :@ Teutonic military emblematic fig- ure, four eagle ornaments at the foot of two grand stairways in the State Capito! at Salt-Lake City have been Yemoved. ‘As soon as his attention was called to the resemblance of the ornaments to the emblem of Prussianism, Gov- ernér Bamberger ordered their remov- _ al and their substitution with figures of renl American eagles. Indian Coat Valuable. — A curio dealer at Steubenville, 0., has a coat covered with 3,300 elk teeth which he values at $10,000. The coat was made by ‘an Indian in Manitoba, | _ Canada, and fs sinew sewed. It weighs 28 pounds. The owner of the coat is a memher of the Order of Elks and Wears the coat at all conventions, With the coat the owner wears an or- dinary necklace made of the largest of the elk teeth in his collection. Italians Show Patriotism. To show their patriotism, Italian grocers at Wheeling, W. Va. m- nounced that they will not -handle wheat flour, selling wheat substitutes Instead. This action meets with espe- cial approval since Tinliins in thelt native land know nothing of wheat flour substitutes. ; ‘As She Understood It. Mary's. mother. was .buying some | ‘changeable. silk.

CIGAR. THAT'S \ Must TOM GETS HIS TOBACCO MIXED | EMWVONS (HIS CIGAR - VERY Good TOME Him ‘THE WRONG BY ALLMAN ESN’'T LOOK WAVE GIVEN WHY THE FRENCH ARE PATRIOTS | Mary have mar- velled at the readi- pess with which the French people responded to the cal),to arms tp the present gigantle struggle across the sea. This has been explained in variogs ways, but proba- bly the best explanation given fs that before the war the French people hot only absorbed. their country’s. bonds, but the securities of other na- tions, and therefore had formed the habit cf studying national/ and inter- national questions, and when the de- claration of war came, knew just what ‘they were fighting for. “They Telit’ that as they were a part of thelr govern- ment their duty lay in whole-Dearted support of it. - Until the Liberty bonds were offer- ed the American people few outside of the wealthier classes owned a dollar'a worth of their own government's se curitiés, popular loans having been an onkvown quantity in this‘country until then. In. the first Liberty lean the banks absorbed the larger part of it; fo the second a marked Incrense in holders among the people was noted, until now over 17,000,000 American cit- izens have become real partners io their government. Millions of dollars have been raised for war purposes by other means than boris, but ‘bonds and war savings stamps must be sold to the people if our country's pledge to its sister dem- ocracies Is to be kept. In order that all the people may have an opportun- Ity to get behind the nation with even a few..dollars, $2,000,000,000. worth of war savings stamps have been offer- ed forsale to help the soldiers and ‘ailors.win the war. . These securities tre just a little government bond; they bear above four per cent compound in- terest if paid in advance and are pay-. able in 1923. They are absolutely safe, having all the resources of America behind. them. and their purchase ac- complishes thé dual purpose of invest- ment andthe saving of money, which perhaps: might go for other things not 80 vital to the country or to the in- dividual. / North Dakota is away behind in sell- ing her quota of war savings stamps, and to bring sales up to par a subscrip- tion campaign will be “put on in the etate June 28, it being believed that with one great concentration of effort the balanee unsubscribed can be taken up and the credit of the state mato- tained for patriotic support of the government. At that time every ‘man, woman nd child in the state will pe asked to pledge the purchase of a stat- ed uumber of stamps each month until the end of the year. Organizations of all kinds have piedged support in this eampaign, and_this. community may safely be counted upon to-do its duty. Practice Makes Perfect.

D. work: ONE MORE MOBILIZATION. .The, United States has pledged its men,‘Its money snd its honor to the task of erush- ing the spirit of world domination possessed by the masters of Germany. The central pawers of Europe have stopped at no crime nor the most in- human practices in the destruction of weaker nations, and fn. the attempted subjugation of. stronger-ones, Women and children, the.aged and infirm, the wounded and hospital attendants have been killed, outraged or enslaved in the name of God and the Kaiser in this mad.desire of the latter to rule the universe, . The United States has taken upon {tself.the high duty, the privilege, of saving the world to free peoples. Loth to believe..for three yeurs, the now- known aims of Germany, this country was. slow in. awakening to its duty. Now the government and the people of America are in the fight to a finish. Not. only must we mobilize all our pow- ers for waging war pgainst Germany and her ‘allies, ~hut® the government must -receive the vigorous ‘support :of. all our-people. We must devote all our energies to winning the, war and the government is depending upon the war ‘| savings movement as, one of its most powerful weapons In the fight, and.of the two. billion dollars which the coun- try-!s expected to Invest in war sav- {ngs stamps North Dakota ts looked to for the purchase of $13,000,000 of theso git, edge. securities, or 20 per capita. At the. present time the per capita purchases have reached less than $1, and it 's apparent that a huge effort must be made if the state Is to do her share tn this Ire of helpfulness. It is for this reason an totensified effort to séll the maximum quota of war Savings stamps is being put forth for June 28, when in one day it is expected the entire balance of the state's quota will be pledged. War savings stamps are better than @ government bond inasmuch us they are not subject to market fluxuation; they pay a reasonable rate of interest and in time of stress can be redeemed. The denomination of the war savings stamp {s so small that It is within the reach of everybody, while the thrift stamp is teaching thousands of chil- dren to save who never beforé knew the meaning of the word. Winning the War. Two French soldiers in the trenches were talking. “We'll win,” said one, “if they'll only hold out.” “They? Who?”. said the other. “The civilians at home,” replied the first.
