His Arms Cited for Bravery
' 1 am airaid my fighting duys are

mother, Mrs. Kllzabeth Harvey, 51 North
Dearborn street.
Harvey, who was wounded by dum
dum bullets, is in a military hospltat
in 1'ngland, near Stockport.
"livery man in my company except
four soldiers and myself were killed
after going over the top and helping
to break through the Hlnuenburg line,"
he writes. His chum was killed while
lying beside him In a shell hole, and a
Red Cross man who had come to his as
sistance was Instantly killed.
Harvey ' twenty-two years old. He
is a former member of the First Penn

ious to do his bit, he left for Canada,
where he Joined the Forty-eighth Cana

been over the top many times and has
been cited for bravery and recommended
for a military medal.
"Tho Germans had machine guns in
the trees, and in church steeples,"
writes Harvey, "It was the most
deadly machine-gun fire that has ever
been used. They even had their gun
ners dressed In Canadian uniforms. We
had to advance across an open Held to
cross a railway where they had a machine-gun
post. Halfway across the
field was a barbed wire entanglement.
When we hit this barbed wire all the
German guns were turned on us.

The problem of feeding the multitude
of prlbonirs is grave, but the Italians
aro making a superhuman effort. They

event In tho history of Italy, and hlgnor
Benelll, tho Italian poet, described It to
the correspondent as "the realization of
11 century's dream and the end and aim
of Italy's war against Austria-Hungary."
As tho warships proceeded toward
Trieste through the mined waters along
the coast where so many thousands of
Italy's soldier dead are burled, and
passed tho Carso Plateau, all on boara
tho warships were affected by the ap- 1
proachlng climax to Italian hopes. As 1
the Bay of Trieste came into view those
on board embraced each other and cried
in their Joy.

heels
You notice that your heels are worn out.
You want new ones and you want them now.
If you have five minutes to spare, step
into a repair shop and say, "I want a pair of
'Usco' rubber heels."
That's all it takes five minutes (the old
kinds require nearer thirty minutes) and
almost like magic, the repair man with a
few taps of his hammer will reheel your
shoes with these staunch, long wearing,
neVer-pull-loose rubber heels.
"But," you say, "it takes longer than that
for the cement to dry."
"Usco" heels require no cement. A
few nails do the job and you have what
you never had before rubber heels that
scarcely show the joint a permanent, prac
tically invisible joint that will last as long is
the heel.
There is a sure footed satisfaction in the
broad, flat, tread of "Usco" heels. You will
like their yielding comfort and their tough
resistance to wear.
Your repair man has them in black, tan and white.
Look for the U, S. seal.
