WITH THE AMERICAN A KM V IN
FRANCE, Oct. 4. (By Mail.)- This
in a Bpeoifio instance of how a pigeon
Buvod a man's life,
it happened in the days before the
St. Mihlel sallenl was wiped out and
while tho Americans wore holding
t lie 4-year-old Line before Selcheprey.
It was an inky black night, but pa
trolling was necessary and a little
group of doughboys crawled over the
parapcl, through the wire and out
Into no man's land. One of the boys
carried a pigeon baskel on ii i hack.
The light wicker carrier Qtted be
tween hin shoulders and be scarcely
nol Iced the weigh! of It. The man
with the pigeon basket, was assigned
to go lo the right of the main patrol
body, with the understanding t hat
the entire unit would meet at a speci
fied place at a certain time.
But a barrage came down. The
Bpche heard the movement and
turned loose artillery. The lone
American whh cut off. To escape
the barrage he was compelled lo take
cover in a position from which he
knew escape was Impossible, a
single American moving there would
"bo certain to bring out posts upon
him. A stronger Force could fight
the outposts off, or possibly gel back
lo its lines without combat because
enemy outposts would nol care to
atari trouble with superior numbers.
The American thought these things
over. Then he thought of the pigeon
in his basket. He Bcrlbbled a note
giving his position and asking assist
ance. This he slippetl into the little
aluminum box on the pigeon's leg.
The bird Hew q way.
Ten minutes later a patrol was ap
proaching t he si randed a mert can's
position. BMve minutes more and he
wim on liis way back to the lines with
ills reinforcements,
"HOW did you find out where I
was?" i he dough boy asked t he pa
trol leader, as t hey el imbed back
over the parapet to safety.
"Pigeon message," came are re
sponse. "Well. I'll be darned ; ! just played
t hat as an outside bet , and didn't
hope to win," Hie doughboy coun
tered, "but I'll Hiiro hang clone, lo
those pigeons from now on."
What happened was that when the
pigeon was released from the Ameri
can's hiding place near the Boche
lines, It Hew straight to Its coto near
division headquarters, The message
was quickly read, and regimental
headquarters called on the telephone.
Regimental headquarters called the
post command In the front line, and
Within a couple of minutes (be patrol
Was scrambling out to the rescue.
In addition to Hying in the most
difficult weather, war pigeons have
displayed their stamina and "nerve"
by sticking at their work even though
wounded. One pigeon arrived at a
certain American cole with a flesh
wound In the breast, Others have
bad the closest possible calls by fly
ing shell splinters, hut always they
have kept to the air until they
reached home.
Trained "pigeon men'' are In
charge of the American birds In

because this is strictly a man's store, dealing in men's reliable
merchandise, and catering to men in all walks of life, and we
know we are conducting it along lines of merit to our customers,
which justifies us in asking you for your business.
You must buy clothing from some one and our method of
going after your business, and caring for it after we get it, is
on the regular American man-to-man basis, and if we can get
it, be assured we will take care of and appreciate it.
We can make all the usual claims about our merchandise,
service, etc., but they do not mean anything to you.
You know that any successful clothier must have reliable
merchandise and give you service of some sort or other, and
you realize these conditions exist here.
There are differences in grades and qualities of merchandise,
methods of pricing and service to customers true but we can
put ourselves straight on these three points in a few words.
We are too able merchants (no ego intended) to be in any posi
tion on them, other than the best possible.
Our success proves that fact, but any way, you'll judge those
things for yourself, regardless of what we might claim.
