' ; LAPATBTTB, Ind. Not until death had sealed his lips did the enviable was record pi Sergeant Walter Everett Haley,' formerly of the 47th United States ' Army headquarters company, become1 known. The .experiences of ; the young hero' rival fiction and his deeds of valor on the battle fields. Only with with the passing of this heroic youth, has It become known that the Hooslor state has as worthy a cause to regard him with much pride, and It manifests that no warrior In the world conflict gave more faithful and heroic service to his country. The war records show that on one occasion he was detailed to search for a German gun position. He was discovered by the enemy, while he was lying on the ground In the moonlight and a German airplane dropped a heavy bomb, which In exploding, blew him thrlty feet, yet strange to say, with no Injury to himself. Repeatedly the plane dropped bombs In an effort to end his life, because 01 the German secrets he possessed, but he returned to the American lines Eafely. In Range of Heavy Guns. On another occasion as an electrician he was sent out to repair telegraph lines. A German artilleryman got his range and that of two companions, and poured shell after shell at theia. The boys dropped into a shell hole and remained there eight hours, until the firing ceased. His most spectacular and heroic deed was the annihilation single- handed, of a German machine-gun nest. He discovered the machine-gun nest in a deserted cabin and alone reamnoitered the position. He made his way to the cabin, assuming the position was held by the enemy. When he squirmed up to a window he found theguns in position, but deserted. Picked Off Gun Crew. Haley slipped into the cabin and had no sooner landed there than he discovered the crew of six Germans coming back up the hillside to renew their fusilade on the Americans. The Germans never reached the cablo. Sergeant Haley picked them oft one by one, thereby saving the lives of many score of his comrades. Sergeant Haley Is the first world war veteran to be buried in the cem ttery at the Indiana slate soldiers' home. The funeral services were attended by veterans of the Civil, Spanish-American and World wars. A firing squad of world war veterans fired three volleys over the grave and Bugler Minke, of battery C, 150th Field Artillery, sounded taps. He died at the general hospital at Ash ville, N. C, of lung trouble, which developed following an attack of gas in France.

Frank Gibler and hia children. The family of Frank Gibler, vice consul from the United States to Great Britain, hold what is believed to be a record. Each of his four kiddies was born in a different state. Frank, aged six, was born in Missouri; Deborah, aged four, in Texas; Dorothy, aged two and onehalf, in Maryland, and Gordon, aged fifteen months, in New York city.
