Tor conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above -und beyond tho call of duty In action against the enemy near Saint Hubert's Pavilion, Boureville^ France, September 28, 1918. In command of Company E, Three Hundred tfnd Sixth Infantry, he led his men In an attack on Saint Hubert's Pavilion through terrific enemy machine gun, rifle and artillery fire and drove the enemy from a strongly held entrenched position after hand to hand fighting. "His bravery and contempt for danger inspired his men, enabling them to hold fast in the face of three determined enemy counter-attacks. "His company's position exposed to enemy fire from both flanks, he made three efforts to locate an enemy machine gun which had caused heavy casualties In his company. On this third reconnaissance he discovered .the gun position and personally silenced the gun, killing or wounding the crew thereof. "The third counter-attack made by the enemy was initiated by the appear- •nee of a mail detachment advancing well In advance of the enemy attacking wave, calling as they advanced *Kamerad.' When .imost within reach of the American front line the enemy attacking wave behind then appeared, attacking vigorously with pistols, rifles and hand grenades, causing heavy casualties in the American platoon holding the advanced position.

Ordinary occupations, trades and avocations followed by thousands of students to help pay expenses are too numerous to enumerate; Indiana university alone reports 85 trades and employments. Some of the occupations are unusual. At Kansas State Agricultural college a young man does housework and watches children while parents are aSsent. The institution has a detective whose occupation has been tracking cigaret bootleggers for the mayor of his town. Another boy there sells salad dressing, while a pair of boys hung out this sign: "Dancing Lessons and Ford Repairs." A University of Nebraska boy took a contract to paint a house, and employed student help to finish the job. Honor stands, where sweets are sold without attendants, are not uncommon. A boy at Nebraska, operating such stands, reported his net profits averaged 65 cents dally. At Washington university.

Marquette University reports one grave digger, and an athlete who makes money as a dance hall bouncer. Two Blind Students. Indiana university, In addition to Mr. Addington, has two other blind students paying their way, a girl who crochets, and a boy who sells sandwiches. At Purdue about 75 per cent of the men are helping to ptfy their own way, while many young women also work. Among the Purdue workers Is a young night engineer whose only hours of sleep are from 4 p. m. to 0:80 p. m., yet he has a prospect of wtnnlng the highest honors for four years of scholarship. At Ohio unlvetalty students earn money for tuition In various ways. Some are official bearers of bodies at funerals, some teach Hebrew on the side, and one leases a house and sublets the rooms. The Missouri legislature has under consideration a bill to appropriate $35,000 yearly for the employment af student labor. Find Magellan Hat Lost in Philippines in 1521 MeW York.--The biographers of Ferdinand Magellan have not thought It worth while to tell the world how tie lost his brass helmet. It was on Apitl 27, 1521, almost 402 years ago, that this great navigator, having written to the folks back home that he had just finished discovering the Pacific ocean, allied himself with Zula, the treacherous king of Cebu, in the Philippine Islands. Zula coveted the neighboring island of Mactan and as Magellan was all dressed up for fighting, being possessed of armor and a brass helmet, Zola sent him to do the rough work. The king of Mactan objected, and a no-rules fight ensued. Ferdinand was doing well until someone got inside his guard and did him i& in falling he lost his brass helmet. Inasmuch as he died rifht there and had BO further need of the helmet, the natives kept It as a souvenir. Now comes the news that the helmet has been found In the Philippines by Maj. H. D. Seton. COW GOES CALLING IN APARTMENT BUILDING Man at Door Calls Cop Instead of Inviting Her In. N«w York.--Patrick Marino of Net 472 Humboldt street, Brooklyn, was fast asleep early the other morning when a peculiar bumping noise on the stairway outside awakened him. He listened, and It sounded like nothing be had ever heard In the way of noise before. The noise arrived at his apartment door and there waa a scrape and a knock. Marino took a baseball bat and answered the door. He was greeted by the frlendlj moo of a large, socially-Inclined cow. Marino lives on the second floor, and wondered how the visitor had negotiated the 40 steps. He decided It was too hefty a problem for himself, and engaged the cow In conversation while another member of the family sent a call for the nearest policeman, who happened to be Frank McCormlck of the Terbert street station. McCormlck viewed the cow and decided she was too big a problem for him to tackle. He telephoned Lieutenant File at the Herbert street station. File dispatched the reserves, with plenty of rope, and a block and tackle to extricate the cow from the hallway. She proved docile enough and they finally got hy out. She was taken to the stables of the Greenpoint avenue police station, and Investigation developed she had been one of a herd landed at North Henry street and driven to the slaughter house of Bernstein & Bernstein, No. 232 Johnson avenue.

Cattle Take Highest Minimum Rates With Hogs Next--Local Agent AfcewM Be (^onfMlted Regarding Pertinent Matters. P /bumni tht UnU«d Sftfciw of Agriculture.) Live stock shippers frequently lose money by shipping improper mixtures of animals to market, an investigation by the United States Department of Agriculture shown. Many instances of losses due to this cause have come to the department's attention. For example, a co-operative association in Indiana recently shipped a car containing 06 sheep and 6 cattle. The sheep weighed 5,195 pounds and the cattle 5,300 pounds. The total freight charge on the shipment was $105.00, or at the rate of 8S cents per 100 pounds. The actual rates quotable from the point of shipment to point of destination were: Sheep 48 cents and cattle 88 cents per 100 pounds. The high rate actually charged was due largely to the fact that the six cattle Included in the shipment made it necessary to apply the cattle minimum weight of 22,000 pounds, which may be compared with the sheep minimum of 12,000 pounds and wijh 10,995 pounds, which was the actual weight of the, shipment. Had the cattle been excluded, this car could have been forwarded at a total charge of only $57.60 instead of $105.60, which was actually paid. The charge for shipping the six cattle, therefore, was $48, which was an increase of 83 per cent over the charge which would have been levied on a straight carload of sheep. Stating It differently, the freight charge on the cattle amounted to 83 cents per 100 pounds." Highest Weight and Rata. The Important ljact to be borne In mind, the department says, is that as a rule where two or more kinds of stock are shipped In the same car the freight for the entire load Is based on the highest minimum weight combined with the highest rate. A mixture of cattle and sheep therefore usually takes the cattle minimum weight and the sheep rate. As a rule cattle take the highest minimum weights, with hogs next, calves next and sheep the lowest. In the case of rates the order is gen erally reversed. Sheep take the highest rate, hogs and calves the next highest, with cattle generally taking the lowest rate. In all cases, It la pointed out, the local agent should be consulted regarding minimum weights, freight rates, shrinkage allowances and any other pertinent matters If the shipper desires to forward l>ls stock in the most economical manner. Although there are many complications, variations and exceptions In connection with freight tariffs, generally speaking, cattle have a lower rate than any other kind of live stock. The hog and calf rates are roughly 115 per cent of the cattle rate, and the sheep rate 125 per cent of It. Hogs, sheep and calves, when tn doable deck cars, ordinarily go at the cattle rate, although In some sections bogs are accorded the same rate whether in double or single deck cars. Plan Economical Mixtures. Obviously, In planning economical mixtures of live stock for shipment, the expensive combination of high minimum weight and high rate Is to be avoided, especially If the car Is not to be loaded to at least the fulli minimum weight. In soma cases whfere a shipper has one or two animals of one class with a high freight rate In a carload of another class, It ma^ be cheaper to exclude them from the carload and order them forwarded. In the same car, as less than carload shipment at less than carload rates. The carrier, however, Is required to collect the lower rate unless the shipper definitely instructs the use of a method making" the less than carload rate applicable. Some rates are made "on a carlength basis. When such Is the case and the railroad, for its own convenience, furnishes a forty-foot car after a standard car was specified in a written order, charge; must be assessed on a standard car, provided the shipment could have been made In the smaller car and the shipper took the proper precaution of having the agent make the proper entry on tha bill of lading when loading out.

HATCHING EGGS NEED GOOD CARE When Shipped Over Long Distances Hatch 1$ Affected. Of* <* the Beat Methoda la t* Use Common Market Basket Weil Lined With Excelsior--Pasteboard Carton Also is Good. br the United tutu Depwtmeat of Asrieultorfc.) Eggs for hatching are shipped successfully over long distances; but In many cases shipping appears to affect the hatch. Sitting eggs for shipment are packed In several different ways. According to poultry specialists of the United States Department ot Agriculture, one of the best methods Is to use a common market basket well lined on the bottom and sides with excelsior. After wrapping each egg In a thin layer of paper and enough excelsior to make a ball about three Inches In diameter, pack them tightly in the basket. Then put on a covering of excelsior and over all sew a piece of strong cotton cloth, or the cloth can be pushed up under the outside rim of the basket with a case knife. The latter method of fastening the clotb is much quicker than the former, and Just as effective. Eggs for sitting are also shipped safely almost any distance by pacalug them in a stiff pastebonrd carton or box made for this purpose, the space around the egg being filled with either chaff or bran. This package "is then placed In a basket, rite bottom and sides of which are lined with excelsior, and the spaces at either end af the box packed with the same ma' terlal. On top of this package Is placed more excelsior and all Is covered with cloth. This method of packing may be used where eggs are shipped both by express and by par* eel post. Extra stiff cardboard cartons made to hold from one to several settings are used to ship eggs. These cartons, or egg boxes, are fitted with a handle for carrying, similar to that on a market basket Bushel baskets are commonly used to ship from ten to twelve settings of eggs, the manner of packing and covering being the same as in common market baskets. It Is customary to "rest" eggs for hatching for about 12 hours after they are received to allow the germ to regain Its normal position befoc? tin eggs are placed In the incubator.
