MAN IS HERO
OF ARGONNE |
,f. H. Hair, at one time station agent
for tin- Copper River railway at Mc
Carthy. recently returned to Seattle,
where he was a hero in one of tin*
big battles there, and the Host-Intel
ligencer publishes the following inter
esting art i le about him
“Jr ‘ hack fn>:n France \vhe**»» he
helped mop up tin* Huns in the Ar
gonne forest as a member of the fain
| ous 361st regiment of the equally fam
ous Wild West division, J. H Hair was
given a rousing welcome by employes
| of the Alaska Steamship Company,
from president to telephone girls, yes
1 terdav. Ho was the only employe of j
the company to get into the big fight
I over there, and there is rejoicing in |
1 tin4 steamship office over his safe re
1 turn, and many eager requests for him
1 to repeat the story of the light in
which he won the gold chevron he
wears on his sleeve, denoting, that he
has been wounded.
Hair went to Franco live months
1 ago as a member of Company A <»i
! the now famous 36 ^t, and took part
in the hitter Argonne fighting until
I he was wounded on October 3. when
helping clean out the last thousand j
yards of the woods.

" 'I wouldn't have missed It if I had
; to travel in a wheel chair all the rest j
' of mv life,' he says. 'But il is line
j to get hack home again. II was great j
i to se(. how the men of the Wild West
j division loomed up in comparison wllh!
1 the men of other outfits. Compared
10 the shop and ofli e men of the Hast !
| ern states we were huskies; compared I
j (o the Knglish Tommy and the French
j poilus we were giants.'
"Hair went over the top with his
c'intrudes ;n intervals of a few days
and es' aped injury in (lie hail of 11111 -
lets wiili such regularity Unit he says;
lie was puzzled. It seemed almost un :
canny to him. Hut it was in the last j
thousand yards of woods, just before \
the Americans scored their break*
through, that lie received the wounds'
that put him out of action.
Wounded in Charge
"While charging a machine igun
u. si he was knocked down w ith shrap
nel ami sustained a broken left elbow,
ilie latter tlie i11 of a machine gun
bullet. The Huns made their last des
perate stand in Hie last strip of woods,
lie says, and il was there that Major
C.eorgc W. Fudwell of Seattle was
kited while leading his men. Hair
s. w tile gallant otli er fall.
"After Ids own wound, Hair, weak
from loss of blood and obliged to
throw himscll down for protection!
from bursting shells and creeping bar
rages, walked nearly five miles to tbe
iear to a dressing station After tlrst
aid treatment he traveled thirty hours
by train lo a base hospital.
Armistice Brings Jubilation
"Hair sailed from France the day
after the armistice was signed and
declared the rejoicing in France was
indescribable French brigadier gen
erals, locked arm in arm with Yank
privates, British Tommies and 'Ital
ian non coins, paraded the streets
with all the hilarity of an old-time
New Year's celebration.
"At the time of his enlistment Hair
was a city freight solicitor for the
Alaska Steamship Company. i’rior
to that lie had lion a freight clerk on
several of the company's steamers to
A! ska, and at one tone was station
agent on the Copper Hirer railroad
11 .McCarthy. Alaska. He reached
San Franc'sco on Itocembcr a with a
party of fifty wounded soldiers. He
is furloughed to Seattle until after
the holidays, when he will return to
the I.etterman general hospital at the
i'rosidlo to undergo an operation on
his injured elbow.”
