American Soldiers Off Duty Steal "Over the Top" in France

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE, Sunday, Sept. 23. (By Associated Press.) On a historic battlefield which merges Into the fighting lines are encamped many American troops, far removed from the rest of their compatriots who form the vanguard of Uncle Sam's expeditionary force in France. For military reasons it is impossible to tell the world just where these men are,, who they are or what they are doing to further the interests of the entente allied cause, but it may be said on authority to friends at home that they are a credit to the Stars and Stripes, which lor the first time in history fly over a camp of American soldiers in this part of the war-wrecked world. Two Have Been Wounded. Some of them have been working continually in a zone covered by German guns and already two of their number have been wounded, a fact whereof they are exceedingly proud. The Associated Press heard these men were here and sought them out. The visit involved a long motor trip but the sight of their bronzed faces and the sound of their cheerful determined voices, more than repaid for the long journey. They are a fine healthy looking lot and nearly two months of hard work in the open under real campaigning conditions has put them In shape and they are ready for anything. Eager To Fight. Especially are they prepared and anxious to try honors with the Germans. In fact their only grievance is that for the present they are not permitted, except where necessity demands, to expose themselves to the enemy's big guns. They want to feel the thrill that one experiences when explosives are going up all about and when shells herald their approach across No Man's Land with a wicked whine which gives notice that in a fraction of a minute deadly bits of ragged steel will be flying in all directions. In fact until a stringent order was issued recently the American officers had a hard time keeping their men out of the British front line trenches. It is said that more than one American soldier has crept away when off duty and after making friends with the "Tommies" has taken his place beside them for a few glorious minutes while a minor battle was progressing. It would have been unwise, perhaps, for the correspondent to inquire too closely whether any of the American officers had "done their bit" in thi3 manner. Nevertheless, the correspondent had grave suspicions that some of them had been "over the top" with their allies In early days before orders forbade it. However, they are good disciplinarians and nobody is disregarding the edicts which have been Issued by the higher command, although the sound of the artillery brings a wistful look into their eyes. Efficiency Is The Word. The correspondent visited two different camps and in each there were the same scenes of methodical activity characteristic of American methods. Things were moving smoothly and no false motions were being made. Efficiency was the by-word everywhere.

the high schools of the county have arranged displays of the domestic science and manual training classes.

It was the noon when the second camp was reached and the officers and men were preparing for mess. Several clean cut young officers came out to greet the correspondent and it was a cheery welcome with a firm hand grip and a hearty "I'm mighty glad to see you." One would have known he was in an American camp had he been blindfolded. An invitation was extended to mess and It was accepted. "I'm afraid we can't offer you very much to eat," said one officer. "You see, our cook is ill and just at this moment we are getting along as best we can. But we can give you plenty of beans and well, plenty more beans," he ended with an apologetic laugh. So Boston-baked beans were served, the first the correspondent had seen in two years of knocking about which had taken him from revolution-torn Dublin to the Mohmand revolution on the northeast frontier of India. And they were the best beans ever canned or that ever will be canned.

They Like It. During the meal the correspondent fell into conversation with a young officer who comes from one of the famous and wealthy families of the United States. "How do you like it out here?" asked the correspondent. The officer gazed reflectively through the open door of the messroom out across the open and beyond the camp. As far as the eye could reach here was a scene of devastation and desolation. Here and there shattered walls of a building reared themselves to mark the spot where a farmhouse, or perhaps a village had stood. For miles could be seen shattered trunks of trees that had been smashed by great shells as though rent by lightning. Occasionally the eye met a little graveyard with its wooden crosses some for German soldiers and some for British who had died in the sanguinary fighting which had taken place over this ground. In places there still were remains of German dugouts, for the enemy had held this territory at one time. Grass was growing over all this waste but could not conceal the myriad of mounds that marked the lips of the great shell craters which pitted the entire zone. The officer returned from his contemplative gaze and answered: "Well, it isn't exactly the same as Forty-second street and Broadway here, but we didn't come out looking for the 'great white way.' We are here for business and we like it partly for itself and partly because we ought to like It We want to do our bit and we are more anxious to do it than ever before "I think that some of our boys who have crept up and stolen a look at the fighting lines have been a little disappointed in a way. Of course they read of what it was like over here, but it did not seem quite right not to see banners flying on the battlefield and not to witness troops moving out In the open. But they all are tremendously impressed with things in general. They realize more than

they did what a vast business this Is. And they are all anxious to do a bigger part Men Hard as Nails "The health of the camp is excellent and the men are as hard as nails. We are all ready for the call to real action." The American quarters are very simple. One officer proudly displayed quarters that he had built out of airplane wings which had been discarded by the British and had been presented to him by a colonel. It was an Ingeniously constructed little house and certainly made of unique material. The reported high reward offered by a German officer for the . first American soldier brought Into the German lines, dead or alive, has immensely amused the Yankees. "We aren't worrying about it any," laughed one officer. "We are. here and 'Fritz' can come after us any time he is ready. We will be waiting." This contingent of Americans is learning all the while and should make a valuable addition to the American fighting front. All the officers are loud in praise of the fine welcome and treatment accorded them by the British. "They are mighty fine folks," is the unanimous conclusion of the Americans.

MISS BELL IS, KNOWN NOW AS THE "LADY WITH THE HOE"

HAGERSTOWN, Ind., Sept. 25. Miss Florence Bell, correspondent of The Palladium here, is now known as "the lady with the hoe." She worked early and late in her garden with potatoes,,and captured the prize at the Horse Show, garden department. She took first also for cabbage, and second for canned vegetables.

Raymond Robins and Mme. Breshkovskaya Speak to Russians PETROGRAD, Sunday, Sept. 23. Raymond Robins, head of the permanent Red Cross commission In Petrograd and Catherine Breshkovskaya, known as the "grandmother of the revolution," spoke from the same platform Tuesday afternoon at the Tenlsheff auditorium, both assuring their audience that Americans. Englishmen and Russians had mutual faith in the ultimate outcome of Russian democracy. - Mr. Robins drew a parallel between Russia's troubles today and early American history. He said the outbreaks here were nothing new In history and urged foreign business interests to deal with new Russia on lines of economic freedom. Madame Breshkovskaya, who spoke in English, was cheered when she expressed faith that her people as the result of education would form a true democracy after vanquishing Germany, the common foe. David R. Francis, the American ambassador, and other members of the diplomatic corps in Petrograd, were present.

COMB SAGE TEA IN FADED OR GRAY HAIR

If Mixed with Sulphur it Darkens so Naturally Nobody can Tell. Grandmother kept her hair beautifully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens' so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears after another application or two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite. It is not Intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Adv.
