CLIFFORD,

Coctor was wjUi him and in urgent need of help. Shouting to another marine, the Doc ran over to the sick bay. grabbed a stretcher and started la the direction In which the courier bad pointed. It was at least three hundred yards across the field. Snipers were plentiful, and shells were dropping all about. Down on their stomachs went the Doc and the marine. Pushing the stretcher ahead, they wriggled and crawled through the stubble to the trench. They found the colonel with the doctor and the colonel's' orderly. The colonel was weak from loss of blood. The doctor said that they must get him out as soon as possible. But the shells were coming too fast and the snipers' bullets were whistling too ominously for an immediate getaway. Shrapnel, also, was falling in the trench. The orderly put himself between his colonel and the enemy fire. DOC HANGS ON BRAVELY And so they waited, and waited, one hour, two hours. The doctor looked at his watch it was after eight o'clock.

Dr. Edwin Ashby of Australia, a noted naturalist and minister is in the city the guest of Timothy Nicholson fora few days. He will probably remain for a portion of the yearly meeting, though he is in this country primarily to bring his son who is a doctor and in ill health. Dr. Ashby brought with him to the states a very large and complete duplicate set of molusceans which he has presented to the National Museum at Washington. He also has a email collection of birds with him, Australian birds being his specialty. "I thought to interest some of the school and college children in my birds," he explained, "but I find your schools are closed for three months. In Australia that is only known in the high universities and then the students work most of the time during vacation, although they have no lectures. The school children in Australia have only a very short vacation in the summer corresponding to the one at Christmas time." Ashby has not been back to England his native home for 31 years. He went to Australia In the first place to get rid of a lung trouble he had contracted in England and afterwards made it his permanent home.

"HEROIC CHARGE" - SAYS PARIS, OF YANKS' ATTACK (By Associated Press) PARIS, Sept. 6. La Liberte, under the heading "A Heroic Charge," pays tribute to the Americans. It says: "The taking of Terny-Sorny by the Americans was a particularly brilliant operation executed by our allies with wonderful dash. The unit which made this stroke had never been under fire, having passed only a few weeks In a comparatively calm sector, but on its debut it hurled itself against a division of Imperial Guards and beat it. "The sturdy youths from Texas habituated to prairie life, tracked th boche like wild beasts; they swept villages and nests of machine gunners

and charged with bayonets at batteries of 105's killing those serving the battery and capturing others. Twice an

officer of the French general staff had to interfere to modify their ardor, fearing that they might overstep the mark. Even the French zouaves, who are an embodiment of our aggressive fighting were astonished at such daring." FEDERAL CONTROL OF COTTON CROP IS BEING PLANNED WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. Steps looking to the fixing of the price of raw cotton and control of the crop so that the war needs of the United States and the entente allies may be taken care of soon are to be taken by the war industries board. With the approval of President Wilson, the board will appoint a committee to investigate the situation and determine the advisability and feasibility of fixing the price so as to protect both the producers and consumers. Chairman Baruch, in a statement published today ,and the committee would hold hearings as soon as possible in the cotton producing states. Price fixing for raw cotton has long been discussed and the board's decision to make the inquiry into the subject how resulted from the recent forecast of the department of agriculture that the crop this year would be only a little more than 11,000,000 eqfiuivalent 500-pound bales as compared with the more than fifteen million bales forecast on the condition of the crop in June.

that jewelry forms one of th ebest export commodities for equalizing foreign exchange rates. It represents a maximum of price with perhaps a minimum of absolute value of the material Involved and can be shipped in small

bulk to countries which import little other American goods and where consequently the dollar In exchange rates is low. In other words, it acts much as would gold bullion or coin in stabilizing exchange rates.

Under this plan which became known today, the government, which already virtually controls the gold market, probably will cut down the supply of the metal as less essential, needs. In anticipation of this action, calls for gold bullion at the New York Assay office have been nearly three times as heavy as usual In the last few days. One consideration which will tend to give manufacturing jewelers a bigger supply than otherwise, is the fact
