Casualty List of 44 Includes
Eight Officers Wounded
in France
Washington, April 16.—Yester
day's casualty list contained forty
four names divided as follows:
Killed in action, 1; died of wounds,
3; died' cause unknown, 1; died of
disease, 7; wounded, severely, 4;
wounded, slightly, 27; missing in nc-
Uon, 1.
Colonel R. C. Boiling is reported
as captured or missing in yesterday's
casualty list. Eight other officers are
named. Captain Hyman Green and
Lieutenant John Alexander Currin
were severely wounded, and Captain
Wakeman G. Gribbel and Lieuten
ants Arthur S. Bugbee, George W.
Donnell, Homan Gray, Thomas F.
Hale and Reuben A. Moser were
slightly wounded.
The Colonel R. C. Boiling named
!in the casualty list as captured or i
missing was identified by War De
partment officials as R. C. Boiling,
of New York, assistant general coun
sel of the United States Steel Cor
poration, who was commissioned in
the after war was de
clared.
Colonel Boiling had been interest
ed in aviation for several years, and
offered his services to the govern
ment in that branch of the Army
long before the United States enter
ed the war. He was commissioned
a major in the reserve corps and
was given charge of the organiza
tion of a squadron from New York.
I/earnlng the government was hav
ing difficulty In obtaining adequate
space for a training field, lajor
Boiling leased one in his own name,
paying over a substantial sum.
About a year ago he was ordered
to France as the representative
there of the aircraft production
board. General Pershing later as
signed him to other duties, however,
and these must have taken him to
the front. It was thought most
probable at the War Department
Colonel Boiling was either shot down
or forced to descend in enemy ter
ritory while engaged in a flight. I

Have you over seen one of

Well, most of them are big po
tato-eaters.
Try their diet for a week or
two. Just now Harrlsburg Is ob-

to conserve the wheat for use of
I the American soldiers and our
Kuropean allies.
Patriotic grocers are selling po
tatoes. in bushel lots, for sl, Citi
zens who buy in bushel lots and
eat largely of potatoes not only
are helping the Food Administra
tion in its food-conservation plan,
but will also insure another t)ig
crop for next winter, for the
farmers will ndt plant many this
spring if they fail to dispose of
those which a severe winter pre
vented their marketing.
Baked, boiled, mashed and fried
are the ordinary ways of serving
potatoes. Some others Include:
Potato bread, potato biscuit, po
tato-cornmeal muffins, potato
cookies and chocolate potato cake.
Try them and see whether wheat
is so indispensable as you once
supposed. •

affirmed the decision of Referee

claim of Mary E. Urweiler vs. Phila
delphia Rapid Transit Co., in which I
it is decided that she can not make
claim for compensation on the
ground that she was a common law
wife and that her alleged husband j
stood in delation of a parent to I
children by a previous marriage of
the claimant. At the same time the
father of the deceased made claim
for compensation as a dependent
parent. The testimony that there was
an oral contract of marriage, but the
decision says "there has not been
established such a reputation of
marriage as will satisfy the law and
establish a civil contract. "The con
tributions made by the deceased
were made to the claimant and not
for the children it is held.
In another case, Anna Bober, Cle
veland, vs Belle Vernon Coke Co.,
compensation award is affirmed al
though the widow left her husband
three months before his death be-1
cause of his "excessive drinking and
•personal abuse she suffered incident |
to such periods of intoxication." The
man, however, made money con-1
tributlons to the support of his wife
and son after they left him.

peals: Thompson vs. West & Bell,

You're too intelligent to believe that anyone is so generous these

The critical situation in the clothing world is uncon-
