'SIMS PRAISES SEAMEN
A CHRISTMAS dinner with all the
''fixins" except the Christmas tree
and the ice nnd snow that usually ae
company the Tiiletide festivities, will
be enjoyed next Tuesday evening bv
two let urneil war veterans, who will
also celebrate a doubln anniversary
nt the same time.
George Corry, Itil Meehan nvenue,
.Mount Airy, yesterday marked his
twenty -second birthday, and lienjamln
1'reemnn, f,S22 Chew street, his com
rade in the lOflth Infantry, observed
the second anniversnry of his marriage
Neither has enjoyed a Christmas dinner
nt home for three years. The dinner
will be provided by Mr. anil Mrs. .Inhii '
Corry. parents of George.
Corry and freeman both saw service
on the Mexican border nnd later went
to I'm nee with the lOflth Infantry.
Company M. Itoth were wounded and
gnssed nnd Corry was captured bv the
Germans on July 1."i imd was a prisoner
until December.
Ate Cat Meat Haw
Corry. in speaking of his confinement
in a German prison camp, tells of how
they were fed on bread made of saw-'
dust nnd horse heets Mnd compelled to
work in beet factories. They were
starved nnd beaten and on one occasion,
finding a stray cat in the stable in
which they were iuartered. they ale it
raw. The same fate overtook a dog of
the "sausage" vnriety. and he declares
a man is not overly particular what
he eats when he is starving.
"Hut. believe me." he said, "that
turkey Cm to get will sure taste good
to me.
"We were forced to work in fac
tories and on the roads in Germany and
when we were unable to work we" were
eaten and maltreated in a terrible man
ner." Corry proudly displays small silk
American flag which he carried through
out the war and which he recovered
from the Germans, who had robbed him
after taking him prisoner. They found
the (lag upon searching him and in thoir
rage they spit on it, trampled it in the
dirt and then gave Corry a benting.
After he was able to move he crawled
to the spot, retrieved his flag and hid
it inside his shirt and brought it back
v, ith him.
Men Burned. Others Crucified
Tales of cruel treatment by his cap
tors reads like a chapter on tortures
by the Indians. Men were burned at
the stake, others crucified and many
were literally rut to pieces. Prisoners
were taken to the Inrger towns and,
with plncards deriding the T'nited States
on their backs, marched up and down
the streets.
Corry was taken n prisoner at
Chateau -Thierry and was confined fur
the larger part of the war at Ilastatt.
Freeman was wounded nt the same

at the base hospital nl Camp Meade.
May 1, has been set as the tSntntive
date on which Philadelphia, will do
honor to the Twenty -eighth (lronl Di
vision. J. .Inrden Guenther. secretary of the
Philadelphia Welcome Home committee,
has announced thnt sailings made pub-
I lie by the War Department wolud indi
1 rate that this date probably would be
! the one on which the big parade and
welcoming celebration would be held.
With more than R00O men of that di
vision nlready on transports, bound for
this country, and the others preparing
to embark in France, plans for the rele
hrntion have taken renewed vigor. It
was announced yesterday by Mr. Guen
ther thnt all relatives and near friends
desiring places reserved on the review
ing stands must have their formal appli
cation nt the committee headquarters
in the Liberty building not later than
Friday.
All possibility of a divisional parade
here seems to have vanished
Announce Other Sailings
War Department officials jesterda
announced the sailing of several other
units of the division, in addition to
those announced on Monday. Major
General Charles H. Muir, division com
mander, is homeward bound with units
aboard the transport Mercury, due to
dock nt Newport News on or about
May .
On the Mercury with General Muir
lare the headquarters troop and head
ipiarters detachment of the division,
the medical detnehment and Companies
I A. B, C and D of the ll'-'th Infantry.
the other units or tins regiment are
at sea on nnother transport.
The transport Finland, due to dock
at Newport News about May fi, has on
hoard detached officers nnd men from
division headquarters, both field and
Istnff ; nnd Cnmpnnies A to K. Inclusive,
of the 103d Engineers, made up almost
'entirely of Philndelphinns.
i The plans for n divisional parade
I were hit another blow when War De
partment officials announced thnt the
units landing next week will be sent
to various camps for demobilisation,
thus effectively shutting the door to
any hope of assembling the orgnnizn
tinns for the celebrntion.
Despite the War Department's an
nouncement that no moie divisional
reviews will be permitted, officials of
the New York welcoming committee
have announced a parade of the Seventy-seventh
Division, ninile up of
drafted men from New York. In take
place soon after the organization lands.
Approximately one-third of the divi
sinn Is expected to land at this port,
according to word from Washington.

SAVE MONEY!
SAVE SHOES'
In a lone chase for a criminal, J. E.
Jones, a secret service man of Chicago,
wore one pair of shoes with Neolin
Soles for nineteen months. This chase
covering both American continents
and Australia, ended in April, 1917.
The shoes were then civen a mechanic
at Clearing, III., anl were worn by
him another seven months.
"Until I discovered shoes with
Neolin Soles, I bought new shoes about
every two months, ' said Mr. Jones.
Twenty-six months of. wear under
londitions such as these is indeed
extraordinary even for Neolin Soles.
But Neolin Soles are made by Science
to be especially durable. They arc
comlortable and waterproof, too. You
can get them on new shoes for men.
women and children, or for re-soling.
Manufactured by The Goodyear Tire
& Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio, who also
make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to
outwear all other heels.
