RALD, CONWAY, 8. O
MEN FOUSHT WELL
AGAINST GERMANS
With the American Army In
France.?Complete details and verified
reports of* the recent German
trench raid shew that the American
troops on that oeca lion set an ex
ample for courage and valor unexcell
cd. The officer who had charge o
verifying the accounts of the run
said to the correspondent today:
"I am proud to say that our mci
engaged in the fight did everything
within their power. They jumped
into the fight and stuck to it. In tlu
first place the troops had been in the
trenches less than three hours when
the barrage fire of the Germans began.
They had marched a good pat
of the previous night and were tired
Some of them were allowed to go tsleep
in a dugout 23 feet unde:
ground.
"When the barrage began these
men did not hear the racket. It is
apparent that they first knew of ?t
v/hen the Germans started throwing
grenades down upon them. It wan
these men who were taken prisoner
but they fought well, even when sirprised
that way, for the stairs of the
I dugout were covered with blood, and
especially the top half, showing thai
tb/. CI p mum si thovo irmet Vuivn 1\/>/mi
hit. The entrance to the dugout also
gave indications of close hand to
hand fighting.
Prom the dugout, the trenches an<
over the top through the barbed \vi"o
and well out into No Man's Land
there was a wide red trail. Hon
much of it was American and how
much German blood is not known,
"There is a corporal now in the
hospital back of the line who did a
good job. He was in the listening
post when the barrage began. During
the filing an officer made his
way through the shells?God knows
how?and yelled to the corporal to go
into the dugout. There the corporal
saw the officer's li^s moving but did
not understand the command and remained
at his post. At the end of
the barrage he saw Germans ell
around him?five being right in front
of him. He took careful aim and
fired three shots and three of th< enemy
were seen to fall. Then a hand
grenade fragment entered the corporal's
back and put him out of action."
Investigation shows that all the
American telephone wires 'betwee?
the observation posts and trenches
'and batteries at the rear were cut by
fragments of German shells, which
numbered approximately 50,000. The
Germans crossing No Man's Land
rolled up telephone wires behind them
\r>d set up a small field telephone exchange
outside the Amreican barbed
<vire with branch lines running to at
erst three points, while the raid was
? 11 progress, to direct the enemy ar
j illery.
WHEAT GROWING
CAMPAIGN FOR HORRY
Supplementing our announcement
in the Field last week which we fail:l
to get in the Herald on account of
it having gone to press, in regard to \
the Wheat Campaign, we have received
and are receiving daily, quite a
umber of names of parties who will
nlant wheat. A sufficient amount
having- come in wo feel justified in
making announcement that we hav**
>rdored 500 bushels of seed wheat to
be shipped at once. This wheat will
be sold to the farmers at cost and we
will arrange for a small flour mill to
l>e erected in Conway in time for
making flour out of next spring crop.
Flour is getting to be very high
and very scarce and we urge all of
our farmers who have land suitable
to prepare a small acreage at once,
that it may he planted as soon as
the seed arrives, which will be in n
fp\v days. This is important, as the
season is getting near an end for
planting in this section.
The flour mill will he erected but
\V( will appreciate it if all those in
the County who plant wheat will send
in their names, indicating the acreage
planted as it will be of more benefit
to us in determining the size of the
mill to he erected.
