Just within the village holders I site
one of the miracles of the war, ono of
the manythit havo come under my ob
servation during the last two earn a
roofed Bhrlne over whoso pedlmeiitcd
entrance a figure of tho Virgin rested
within a niche. A German shell hid
struck tho little building nnd mido a
wreck of It, but the portion that sup
ported tho Virgin In tho niche stood
bravely alone, uprising among tho mass
of crumbled etone.
The village itself was over half a
wreck, occupied still by perhaps half Its
original Inhabitants, these being na at
wa but women, old men nnd children
Upon Its walls and at dlvtia places
throughout the Jiaieilet wero signs read
ing: "The alerle for gas Is three min
utes ringing of the tocsin the signal
for Its passing fifteen strokes upon the
cnurcn nen
The three streets were full of Sam-
mees. Their gear lay here and there
among stacked arms. Rolling kltohenB
were belching smoke and groups of men
were walking about or engaged In con
tersatlon. A few with keener Usttntts
of observation than their fellovfs were
noting centuries-old dates upon somo of
the housea or Inspecting the Interior of
the church that dates back to early 1400,
Mingling with the khakl-clad Amer
icans were khakl-clad, brown-skinned
men from Arabia and Tunis and Mo
rocco, members of French Colonial units
Here and there I noted a Zouave and a
few of the Foreign Legion with their
fourgeure of red about one shoulder.
Khaki was to relieve khaki, and about
me the ends of the earth were meeting,
brothers in a common cause.
During the wait for night I wandered
alt over the village, flopping here and
mere to taut vitn uiucrcni oammees ot
different companies.' Each In his in
dividual way said he was glad to go In
"get a chans t at 'eni 'stead of that
tralnln' stuff that I'm full up on," as one
put It,
I stoDDtd for a Quarter of an hour to
Chat with 'Sergeant , who has
seen twenty years' service in the reg

II was then that I ran Into Daniel
Dennis O' , a native of tho "ould
sod,' who has served his twenty yeers,
too. In tho service of Pnclo Sam. His
brogue was ns rich as tho cream on the
milk that we who are .Somewhere In

for tho last threo Presidents and "a

Daniel Dennis has a brother tint I could
name with perfect freedom, because he
Is not In the American armvj and be
cause, too, he has a record In this war,
that of capturing single-handed two
bocho machlno guns upon u certain date
and occasion.
Sure I'm glad to be Michael Daniel's
brother, sir." he said proudly, "nnd when
thlB shindy's over I'm goln' to hunt him
un Aln t seen him for a many a ear.
Juiet as he made his record me ouugest
son was born, and I had the prlcBt out
there In Pittsburgh name the kid after
his, uncle. Mo wife has tngged a "'d'

it seemed to me ns I walked nway
that In Daniel Dennis, the Irishman, and
Sergeant , th" South German, and
the Russian, the Swede, tho Norseman,
the Cuban, tho Italian and the wander
ing Jews he bad mentioned I had found
the spirit of America and Liberty; that
each and every one of these, together
with the Oklahoman und tho Pennsl
vanlan, the Ohloan and the Callfornlnn
whom I had met In this regiment, were
of the Opes that made the United States
a great nation through the assimilative
quality In the very air over there that
erth and all were but Americans, Sam
mees In the uniform of Uncle Sam, and
that with the Moroccan and the Tuni
sian, the Zouave and Leglonalre. thev
were going to deliver their bit, the same
bit as the pollu, the Tommy, the Canuck,
and the Anzau havo delivered and are
delivering still.
With the fall ot night I stood at the
head of a road that led from the vil
lage to the trenches beyond, a few kilo
meters away. During tho dying hour
of the day I hail walked upon It for
perhaps half a mile with two ofllcers,
old friends us one makes them at this
correspondence game, but whom for the
first time I now saw In the khaki of
Unci Sard.

A sergeant nppearnl out of the gloom
saluted and replied, "I am. sir."
"Where s that mini's helmet?' came
the answer "u
'Hch lost It. sir: somebod awlnecl It

"Have him full out and get a helmet

to we standing about him, "I clou i Know

the tin hit on before It happens "
The last platoon was completely lie),
meted, so I suppose tho "poor little kid"
dug out a tip lid somewhere. And ns
Its complement took the road, the Major
leaned over and gave us Individual his

godspeed Presently we shall see him

himself opposed to "Penroselsm," which
lie promised to do his utmost to elimi

O'Nell. of Pittsburgh, State Highway
Commissioner, also pledged himself to
do all In his power to obtain ratifica
tion of the national prohibition amend
ment In an address here at a mass
meeting at the First Uaptlut Church.
Ho said:
"There are two big Issues In 'thlj
State that cannot be sidestepped by any
candidate for Governor. The first Is na
tional prohibition and the second is Pen
roselsm. National prohibition Is a
moral as well as an economic measure,
and if I am nominated and elected I will
do all I can to see that Pennsylvania Is
ono of the thirty-six States that ratify
the amendment.
"Under Penrose leadership Pennsyl
vania politics has txcotne a byword
throughout the nation. He has driven
thousands of our best citizens from the
Republican party and I twill do all In
my power to rescue the party from his
seldah and rulnoui control.
'The Renubllcan party Is a mu
party and Pennsylvania Is a.great State,
the name of the llrm selling the flour
wcro made to him.
I will do all I CAii to help ou" Mr
Cooko said 'but ou must help us and
Incidentally yourselves We rlmply must
put this thing over"
All icstaurants In the city amilited
with the restautateurs association will
serve a standardized "Liberty roll" to

Tho announcement then points out:
If ou do not eaie for thu Liberty

Rakers of Phlladelnhla have hen ne.11.
fled by Federal rood Administrator Jay
Cooke that tho time during which re
...-j ..o uncu us a nunsiHute lor wheat
flour In the baking of bread has been
extended until March 31 Under tho'
regulations originally promulgated, rye
flour would automatically havo been
withdrawn ns a substitute on March 3.
Mr Cooke explained that the reason
for the extension of time was that It
was found that tho surplus stock of rye
flour waa larger than had at first been
estimated, and that unless circumstances
should arise that are not now foreseen
tne fitocit win oe suiucient to permit of
Its use as a substitute all this month
At the end of that time. It Is estimated
other substitutes for wheat will have
been accumulated In large quantities.
