OL. CHARLES S. WHIT^
TLESEY'S "Lost BattalHffil
ion" was never lost In tlie
HUr > Argonne forest for the Ave
L^ days, October 3 to 7, 1018.
It was a "Get-There Battalion,"
a "Hang-On Battalion,"
a "Surrounded
* v Battalion," a "Cut-Off Battalion,"
a "Never-Surrender
Battalion,A but it was never for one
minute a "Lost Battalion."
The newspaper correspondents, announcing
its heroism to the world and
searching for the picturesque, coined
the phrase "Lost Battalion."
Their "Lost Battalion" phrase
stuck and still sticks. It doubtless
was one of the things that drove
Whittlesey over the side of his ship
In the night to an unmnrked grave in |
the sea. It distresses the fifty-fifty ]
survivors of the Whittlesey battalion. |
The American people must learn the ]
true story of those unforgettable five ]
days in October of 1918 and the words .
"Lost Battalion" should never be heard ]
again on Americun lips.
The detachment under command of ?
Colonel (then Major) Whittlesey was |
composed of GOO men of the Seventy- j
seventh division?the First battnllon i
of the Three Hundred and Eighth In- ,
fantry, together with elements of the i
Anree nunureu unu ocicum imuuuj
and Three Hundred and Sixth Machine |
Gun battalion. The men were from ]
the upper and lower East Side of (
New York city. Most of them were )
either Immigrants or sons of lmml- i
grants. i
The Seventy-seventh division was or- j
dered to advance through the Argonne i
forest. It was nineteen miles of Jun- ,
gle, with steep hills, deep ravines, i
sheer cliffs, swampy streams, barbed- <
wire entanglements aud machine-gun <
nests?and the Germans had held it i
for four venrs!
The advance began September 2G. ]
October 2 the whole line of advance (
was held up by concentrated machine- <
gun fire. Hut the orders were to advance
without regard to losses. Whit- <
tlsey's objective was a position in ,
"The rocket"?where two ravines ,
came together In a swampy place at ,
the foot of a cliff.
Whittlesey's battalion, after a loss ]
of ninety men and the capture of two <
officers and twenty-eight privates of ,
the enemy, gained Its objective Octo- (
ber 3. (
And the Whittlesey battalion was .
the only detachment that did tight its ,
way through and did gain Its objec- ]
tive.
Soon Whittlesey's battalion was (
surrotinded and cut off. He notified , i
headquarters by carrier pigeons that i
he was cut off. Thereafter there was <
no communication for five days. Maj.
Gen. Robert Alexander, commanding, ^
believed Whittlesey would hold on and ,
tried desperately in every possible ,
way to open up communication. (
Then followed five days of hunger ,
and thirst and death until the 600 ,
were about 300. The Germans, who (
were close at hand, made Incessant ]
demands for surrender.
The Americans, so far as their replies
are printable, told the Germans
to come and get them. The Germans
didn't dare try that. They considered
It wiser to throw hund grenudes und
to pick off the volunteers who crawled
to the spring after water.
On the fifth day it looked like death
for the whole American outfit. Thut
afternoon, at 4 o'clock, the Germans
sent in a captured American private,
with a white ting, blindfolded. Lie
bore a letter from the German commanding
officer to the American commanding
officer asking the Americans
to surrender in the name of humanity.
Colonel Whittlesey handed the note

s "Colonel Whittlesey's command, In

deeply into the enemy's position than
did the adjacent battalions. Communls

of the command had curried Into act

the five days of their Isolation. Too

I BUILDING !
SCRUBBING-BOARD SURFACES
Bureau of Public Roads Building Experimental
Highway to Determine
Cause of Waves.
(Prepared by the United Siatcii Department
of Agriculture.)
What causes a "tarred" road to deI
velop that peculiar serubbinp-board
surface Is a question that has been
worrying the highway engineers quite
as much as the long-suffering public.
As often as not the symptoms appear
In a macadam road that has been
: treated with asphalt. But the trouble
, is largely confined to roads built with
; tar or asphalt. Concrete and brick P
roads never develop such a surface, .
and ordinary dftt roads seldom do.
The bureau of public roads of the j
United States Department of Agri- J
culture is building at the Arlington dj
(Vn.) experiment! ! farm an experl- I
mental roadway 15 feet wide In an at- R
' tempt to discover the cause of the |
trouble. The road Is laid nut In the
! form of a circle with a 90-foot ratlins. (J
I and Its circumference, 505 feet In .
length, is to he divided Into sections,
ench of which will be surfaced with
a different kind of asphalt or tarred
surface.
The experimental sections will be
built exactly like actual rond surfaces
and when completed they will carry
a "traffic" as much like actual traffic ^
as It Is possible to devise. The "traffic"
will he supplied by a driverless v
motortruck which will be held, to (he
circular path by means of a long arm ^
extending from the center. The course
of the truck will be altered from time 1
to time so that the entire width of the
roadway will be traveled. ,
It has not been possible to determine ^
the cuuse by observation of actual |,
mads because there are too many tinknown
quantities. The defect may be t
due to distortion of the earth under '
the rond surface or to defects In the g
surface itself. It Is probably caused |

OILED ROADS ARE APPROVED 1
Operation Must Be Performed Intelli- 1
gently or It Will Make Con- '
ditions Worse. f
I
The American Highway Bulletin, f
which approves of oiled roads, oh- 1
serves that oiling must he performed s
intelligently or it will make conditions f
worse instead of better. According to '
this authority it-is useless to oil a dirt f
road which is not thoroughly drained
and properly graded. It is a waste of s
money to oil a road which does not *
have a smooth hard surface free from r
dust. If the surface is uneven, oil [
collects in shallow depressions and t
' softens the surface so that after the r
' first heavy rain the travel tends to c
i make uiudholes at these places. If s
there is dust on the road, the oil com- t
* - -'"o* tn i) snrt of S
DJnes wuii in*: uuiiL i" ? -
mnt, which the truvel over It quickly t
breaks up Into large flakes or scales, s
But If the road Is In proper condition s
to receive the oil and the right kind
of oil is used, the oil percolates Into I
the pores of the earth for a depth of <
i several inches, sealing them with an \
: asphaltlc binding material which f
unites the surface into a tougher mass t
than the original surface. The oil i
i cannot make the road any harder, for s
only st<>ne or gravel will accomplish ?
1 that, but it will prevent the displace- s
ment of the earth particles under airy J
loads which an earth road is adapted r
to carry. If the oiled surface is ini- |
mediately covered with a thin layer of t
clean. Imrd sand, the travel will not r
i disturb the oil and the travelers will t
suffer less inconvenience. ' * {
r
Gate for Crossings. i
A new safety gate for railroad cross- (
ings is designed which stretches across s
the road like- the old style gate, but is f
flexible and elastic, so that it gives in- j
stead of breaks when run Into. The f
gate will force the vehicle backwards, j
away from danger. I

Enduring Hou
HOME, sweet home, Is mnde much
sweeter and more livable by those
endearing little house garments
that women delight to wear within
their own four walls. Any male person
will acknowledge the charm of
colorful coats and dainty jackets or
crisp and cheerful house dresses, In
the compauy of frivolous breakfast
caps, worn when Ids women-folk start
the day right. And at Its close, the
tired business man Is much refreshed
by the sight, at his table, of unusual
and interesting house gowns. The
pleasant thing about It Is that anyone
may have pretty breakfast jackets or
select house dresses and aprons thnt
are attractive as well as practical.
There Is nothing more worth while
than careful choosing of these everyday
things.
Just now It Is the very simple breakfast
coat of colored taffeta, in plain
or changeable weaves, that appears
to be uppermost In the minds of women
who are making a choice. These
coats are straight garments, a little
shorter than the petticoats worn under
them, and having three-quarter
length sleeves. They are provided
with small patch pockets and finished
at the edges with ruchlngs of the silk.
The pockets are an Invitation to gay
lowers or fruits of silk to find a resting
place on them.
Silks, laces, and all their pretty I
kindred in fabrics, naturally travel'
Ribbons in S
the road thnt lends to breakfast Jackets,
and ribbons are nearly always
found in their company. Printed cottons,
in the finer weaves, make some
of the most pleasing Jackets, lace and
ribbon trimmed. These are usually
more simple In design than the lace
Jacket shown In the illustration, which,
being longer lived, merits more time
In making. For this, val lace edging
and insertion are set together in pan
els, and those joined to form the
handsome little affair that will delight
its owner. Satin ribbon, arranged
in loops, lends It color.
For the ambitious needlewoman a
dainty piece of neckwear is shown. It
may he found in the shops, ready
made, but it soars in price when made
by hand, and becomes an accessory to
be proud of, having that quality of'

Ribbons on hats for present wear are
applied to shapes of velvet or felt, and
for southern tourists, or the deml-season,
to satin, crepe or silk hats, as the

other millinery fabric. Narrow, metal*

row, in scant ruffles, and It has a
sprightly finish in pointed ends of velvet

side. In a hut of georgette, with
drooping brim, definite crown lines are
emphasized by covering the side crown
with many little loops of narrow plcotedged
ribbon, the same ribbon finishing
Its mission with a double sash
about the crown and many ends reaching
