Nothing But First Class
aiyve was on. Moving heavy nun
on crowded roads at night when it is
raining is anything but easy. We had
to move at night so the German. air
planes would not see us. As long as
wc went ahead though we could stand
it- It would have been a whole lot
harder to retreat. We moved up
once Jn the day time during the drive
and that night German bombing
(lanes dropped a few bomufe at us.
They didn't get anyone but came
close enough to make some of the
fellows glad they haa. plenty of In
su ranee. They tried us out another
time with bombs but missed again. IC
is quite an experience to have bomb
ing planes flying around over you.
Yuu can hear them but can't see them
so naturally a person believes the ma
chines are right over his head and
the bombs meant for him. We had
lots of fun though and everybody
gathered plenty of souvenirs- We had
German guns, helmets, buttons and
belts. The belt buckles have a crown
and the words, "Gott mit Una,'' on
them. Gott seems to have deserted
them and come over to our side ai
present. The allies have them on
the run how and will never let up
until Jt is' aver.5.. :i . '
s One of the heit things-we saw was
when we came back over the ground
the Germans had occupied before the
drive. The French had Germans pHn
oners fcanveKtlnf .the crops that Ger
many had figured on harvesting. It
certainly looked good.
The way we have been running
around France we- should he called

outfit. , We have traveled all over
France now and before it 1 over we

We are back at the front
but tak
ing things easy at present. , The only
excitement we have had for some
time is an air battle now and then.
We have seen so many of them thai
there is not much, excitement In It
for us any more.
The first time we came to the front
we usually had two or three gas
alarms every night to give us some
thing to talk about We didn't use
very mild language, either- Frita
would drop a shell or two some
where In our neighborhood and about
that time some automobile would start

PIGEONS CARRY 1.600

a "Hero."
(By United Press)
LONDON, Sept. 35 (By Mall.)
Nearly 1.600 messages carried by
pigoons have passed through head
quarters of the naval pigeon service.
A British seaplane sent the follow
ing message In duplicate by two pige
ons at 7.24 a. m. one day:
"Am down off . Rough sea."
Both pigeons brought the message
in at 8 a. in. and by 8. SO a. m. a ves
sel had been sent to the plane's as
sistance. On another occasion the crew of a
flying boat found Itself In difficulties
at sea and sent a pigeon with an ap
peal for help.
There was a strong head-wind
against which the bird had to battle.
He fought his way homeward until he
had crossed the coastline; but hie ex
ertions proved too much for him, and
he fell dead within a fonr miles of
home. The message was delivered,
however, and the crew of the flying
boat was saved.
Naval statistics .show pigeons suc
ceed In delivering 95 per cent of mes
sages entrusted to them.
