Wounded French
Soldiers Patient
and Grateful
BEHIND THE ALLIED LINES,
Oct. 16—Even though suffering,
French poilus emerging from the in
fluence of ether In the numerous hos
pitals to the rear have never been
known to fail to bestow upon the
operating surgeon the French offer of
thanks by a sentimental "Merci."
American physicians have been as
tonished at the amazing regularit:
with which the pollus show their grat
itude tor their services. After th<
most painful undertakings and tin
most critical operations, the "Morel'
is never forgotten when the soldleri
of France "come to."
"The poilu is an exception when i
comes to undergoing clerical and stir
gicai treatment,” said an Americai
physician. "He is the most uncom
plaining and in the same degree tin
most thankful patient in the hospl
till."
AMERICAN
AIRMEN ARE
FULL OF GRIT
PARIS, Oct. 17. — Americans who
join French escadrilles, can from tho
moment of their arrival take part in
1 bombing expeditions, thanks to the
■ sound training they have received,
say French aviation authorities. The
work of a single group, that under
Major Vuillemln, may be taken to
illustrate this statement.
During the bombardment of a battle
field, Second Lieutenant Bonflls, the
observation officer having been killed,
his pilot. Second Lieutenant Halley,
an American, although himself severe
ly wounded in the arm. succeeded in
bringing the body of his companion
back into the French lines. Halley
brought down a German plane that
day.
Second Lieutenant Lloyd Schaeffer,
observation officer, was severely
wounded in a fight, gaining a citation
which spoke of him us "an American
! observation officer of the very first
I rank, gaving fresh proofs of courage
and admirable coolness each day. In
I full battle he carried out fifteen bom
i bardments at low altitude."
| Major Vuillemin has cited Harold
Wilson Andrews, second lieutenant oh
1 servation officer, as “remarkable for
| dash and skill. Always in the breach
since the late German offensive, he
'has taken part in several fights. He
returned from one with ninete n shell
splinters in his plane." Andrews was
attacked in one instance hv eighteen
enemy machines but succeeded in get
; ting away. The liexl day lie brought
1 down an enemy plane.
"Officer pilot of great courage and
high const ientoiisness," says a citation
of I.ieu'i mint F.dward King MacDon
ald. who took part in ten battlefield
bombardments during tin lighting on
the Aisle* and in Picardy. Two vic
tories are credited to him.
Lieutenant pilot William Hoeveler.
after several months work with the
American ambulance, enlisted in the
aviation, won a citation for his work
in nine bombardments on the battle
field Having brought down an enemy
In one tight, he returned with nine
bullets in his machine.
Lieutenant pilot John Glover is an
other American cited by Major Vuille
min as "always ready to start, and
always volunteering, has given each
i day fresh proofs of the wonderful
qualities of his race.”

SOLDIERS HARVEST
300 ACRE GARDEN
THAT NETS $25,000
CAM I’ I >IX, WriRhtHton. N ,I„ Oet
15 The soldiers are harvesting the
crop from the .'KlO-aere demonstration
garden planted last spring by the na
tional war garden commission. They
are counting 300,000 ears of sweet
corn and 480,000 pounds of potatoes,
as well as weighing 481,000 pounds of
hav and measuring up 00,000 pounds
of string beans.
The soldier farmers gave a harvest
luncheon. Lieutenant Bonner took
| great pride in showing a field of
i broom corn from which the reclama
tion service will make about 2.000
brooms. Ask Mrs. Housewife If this
is important and she will say "Yes."
for brooms are now over the dollar
mark at the corner store.
Indications here are that the war
department will do big things next
year, now that this demonstration gar
den bis "made good" with a crop
valued at $25,000,
