—FIRST SHOT to shout for silence to stop them from singing "Tipperary.’’ Somehow they got into the trenches without being detected by the German artillery. r . e French troops, whom they r- - heved, gave them a classic Gallic welcome, with much hugging, handshaking aad kissing of bur;, cheeks. Gen. John J. Pershing ..au er liberately chosen a quiet sector to give his men their introduction to war. Across the dark waste of no man’s land, there was no sign of activity in the German lines. Behind the infantrymen came Battery C of the 6th U. S. Field Artillery, hauling a French 75 up to the side of a hill. At 6:15 a. m. on Oct. 23, ju=t .'us dawn broke over the front, a redhaired sergeant from South Bend, Ind., pulled the lanyard. A loud cheer went up from the sergeant’s comrades as the first American shell of World War I whistled into the enemy lines. The shell case was carefully preserved, and sent home to Pr< sident Woodrow Wilson as a .souvenir. The gun that fired it was quickly removed frcnq act ion and shipped back to the* If. S. Military Academy at West Point, .N. Y., where it is still displayed as an historic relic. * T h e red-haired sergeant's name was lost to history under a censor's pencil. But the rest of the exciting news was duly reported in American newspaper; And a thrill of patriotic price

swept over a nation whose parti- | ! cipation in war to save democra- 1 I cy had previously been confined J to buying Liberty Bonds and do-

ing without sugar.

Gradual Release For Guardsmen LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UP) — The Army continued today its gradual plan to release from federal service most of the Arkansas National Guard, which it no longer needs in the integration watch at Central High School. Maj. Gen. Edwin Walker’s headquarters said it will probably be the end of the month before all 8,700 guardsmen ordered released will be put back under the command of Gov. Orval E. Faubus. The Army selected 1800 guardsmen, on an individual basis, to help 400 men of the 101st Airbome Division with integration guard duties at the increasingly less-beleaguered school.

Confessions of a World War II Vet 1 FROM SEATTLE POST PUBLICATION OF POST 1. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON) I got to thinking the other day about that valiant band of men now known as 40-YEAR .MEMBERS IN THE AMERICAN LEGION. I was a small boy in 1919 when they came home from World War I but I still remember the battles they had to fight after they came home from that famous "War to End Wars.’’ I remember the tin cups with pencils in them, the apple salesman on the corners, the bonus march on Washington, their lack of proper hospitalization, their efforts to get and hold new iobs. What a struggle they had! I read over the list of those 40-year members in the September issue of the Seattle Post. Did you notice who they are today? Presidents of banks and railroads, Congressmen, Supreme and Suiperibr Court Judges, some of • our most Successful business men. doctors, lawyers, and many retired citizens. How did they arrive at this status? worked hard, applied selves, and refused to Ttym the American Legion -proposed the G-I Bill of Rights for us so that when we came hack from World War IJ we would not have to endure all th» hardships they experienced. We were sent to college, loaned money to get started in business or buy a home, we received generous disability benefits and in plain English had it pretty sort, due entirely to their efforts in our behlaf. lam ASHAMED that every World War II and KOREAN VET has not joined the AMERICAN LEGION aren't you?

W r !ii!e the now cars have power brakes window lifts, and automatic gear shifts, no device has been invented yet to shift the blame in case of a car accident. The owner has to stand this jolt (with the help, of course, of insurance). But too many drivers c a r r y too little in the way of Bodily Injury protection. The standard $10,000 $20,1)00 might he frightfully inadequate in event of a bad wreck. Recently, for example, 4 people w» re killed in a headon car accident. One of the drivers was held at fault The claim the court awarded against him: $202,930. Since he had been well advised, though, he carried tinnier SIOC.OCO $300,000 Bodily Injury limits. The insurance company.’ picked up l.he <ab.” In commenting on this case, a national insuran-e magazine stated. "The difference in premium fer having liberal bodily injury limits ns against the usual amounts, was less than $25. For each of these addit onal doll us he paid in preriipms, he sav<*d over $7000 in settling tlv- claim.” Mnv we explain just how LITTLE it would cost you to have aato insurance protection ?
