HOW I WENT "OVER THERE" WITH
PERSHING'S DIVISION
By HAZEL CARTER
Mn. Hazel Carter of Douglna, Ariz., la a young woman,
twenty-two, whoa# young husband. Corporal Jehn J. Carta*
of the United Statea army, was ordered to Franc* with the
Pershing expedition.
Determined to accompany him. she obtained a aotdler'a uni
form and fell in aa a private on hla departure. She waa Av«
daya at aea on the transport before discovered through *
chance. After the arrival of the famoua division In Franc*
she waa returned hom* against her wishes.

voyage and safe arrival first hand—cne that made history,
COPYRIGHT. 1817. BY THE BELL SYNDICATE
Alarm Interrupts Talk.
He finally agreed he would not re
port me until just before we arrived,
If I got away with it that loug, but he
Insisted he must do it then. However,
we agreed to see each other the next
night to have another talk, and I
thought, with the whole Atlantic be
tween us and France, I could persuade
him in the mean time. Just as I was
getting read.v to go back the submarine
alarm sounded which broke all the boys
out of their bunks, seasick as most of
them were.
1 ran back to my place Just In time
to hear the rookie quartered over me
arguing with the sergeant.
"<Jet up out of there!" shouted the
"nou com." "That's Hie D boat alarm."
"1 don't care whether we sink or
not," answered the poor boy. "I hope
she does. Don't bother me."
The sergeant routed out the rookie
without much ceremony, and I follow
ed along to a place nssigned to me on
a life raft, puttiug on my Hfe belt as I
went. All the men had orders to don
their life preservers lirst and then go
in an orderly manner to their places.
Already there had been two or three
drills in the daytime, and the disci
plined man soon catches on.
When 1 reached the deck there was
no confusion and no excitement in the
pitch black darkness. The men were
proceeding quietly to their places, fas
tening on their life belts, although most
of them had been wakened out of snor
ing sleeps, and I was proud of the be
havior of the soldiers Uncle Sam was
sending to the trendies.
If nil our boys who are going to
France obe} Instructions as well as
that shipload did there will be no ex
cuse for the loss of a life, it all moved
like clock work. No one lost his head.
My seasick rookie, however, climbed
into the wrong boat and got a call from
the corporal
Uilll I JOT Ik III ...
poral, "that lifeboat is reserved for of
ficers? f!ct out of thorp!"
"I don't think this Is a very demo
crats urmy." grumbled the youngster,
"If they're fussy what boat you get In
at BUcli u time. I m going to Itussla to
enltwt. where there's some freedom, If
they don't drown me, uml I don't care
If they do."
The alarm was only intended as a
night drill, and we were soon ordered
baek to quarters. 1 trailed along with
the rest, almost boldly, because there
was little danger of detection in that
Inky dnrknefe. I rolled Into my bunk
and was soon as sound asleep as any
body. As I dozed off I knew 1 was not
afraid of submarines, for the alarm
had not scared me at all. and 1 thought
we had sighted a sure enough U boat
After that we had many of these
drills at all hours. Most of the men
soon bet-a me calloused to the danger of
submarines, and some of them got so
they would sleep through the alarm—
that Is, they would sleep until the ser
geant, whose duty it was to see that
every one was out, came along and
stirred them none too gently from
slumber. A few began to think they
would miss one of the sights of the
trip if they didn't meet a Dutchman
and looked forward hopefully to the
prospect.
Disappointed Through Failure to
See U Boats.
However, these optimists were doom
ed to disappointment, for our ship did
not see a "Herman porpoise" the whole
voyage, nor did we bear a gun fired.
Since returning to the L'nited States
I have heard of the attack on some of
the ships of the transport fleet, but It
was not on the part of it we were with.
It would have been impossible for us
to have been attacked and not to have
known of It. As I say, lots of the boys
were disappointed because they could
not write home to the folks about the
yarrow escape from the subs, and the
<&>ughboys are great letter writers.
Perhaps some of them did, anyway, bo
as fo let those at home know they
weren't missing anything.
By this time I felt almost like a sol
dier and had learned to smoke "tailor
made*' cigarettes, although I had tried
it only once before this trip as an ex
periment when I was at school and had
abandoned It after a couple of puffs.
In the privacy of my bunk I devoted
a whole lot of time to trying to roll
them with as much carelessness and
real economy of tobacco as are shown
by the U. 8. soldier. I bad acquired
the "makln's" and spent hours at the
task.
About the third or fourth day out I
felt I was pretty proficient and got out
my brown papers and tobacco on deck
and went to it. Near me was a sailor
ofae of our biggest battleships who
wi,\s in t&e gun.crew ^lgned to defend
ftie transport' from iTTHc?" 'He was
off duty, and I saw him watching me
closely as I rolled the pill. Finally he
sidled up.
"Say," he asked, "you're a Jane, ain't
you 7"
"What are you doln'—kiddln' me?" I
asked him.
"I guess you're klddln' me," he an
swered. "1 pegged you by the way
you wrap up one of those pills. No re
cruit is so raw he can't roll one better
than that. They wouldn't let him In
the army if he couldn't. But what
you're doing on this Joy ride Is none of
my business, sis. Don't be afraid I'll
tip you off. I'm In the navy, and what
the army does ain't my affair so loug
as we get you over there all O. K."
I didu't admit I was a girl, but be
knew, lie was a nice boy. wbo had
come from Iowa originally, and I got
real well acquainted with him later,
lie was one of the few people on the
transport on the way back, a sad and
lonesome trip for me, and we became
quite chummy. 1 saw him only the
other night here in Hoboken.
"Well," he remarked, "it's hard luck
they got you. The other two girls
aboard could roll them better than you
and slipped through all right."
"More power to them if tbey did," 1
answered. "I hope they made It"
Of course there were no more girls
on board. He was trying to kid me
and get my goat.
Life on Shipboard.
I was pretty happy and contented for
(he next couple of days, and I guess I
became too sure of myself. Most of
the boys were Retting over their sea
sickness by this time, and the Inev
itable crap game that follows the army
was in progress. You could hear the
men calling for "Little Joe" and "Jim
my Ilicks" after they got out the "hot
and colds." and they made plenty of
noise.
The ollieers were not very strict
aboard ship and let the crap game run
with all the noise necessary to the suc
cessful playing of this national pas
time. Oue of the boys had been in par
ticularly hard luck and had only a thin
dime left to put up for a future margin
when he copped a big pot. Just then
the submarine alarm sounded. We
knew we were near the danger rone.
"Hurry up!" shouted one of the play
ers as we all broke away from our
places.
The winner calmly collected the pot.
"They may shoot Die, and 1 will tell
the world so," he aunounced, "before
[ will leave this 'sugar- for a blooming
Dutchman to put a torpedo into. That
would be Just my luck. If It ever rains
soup I will be caught with a fork."
It was another drill alarm, so the
calamitist returned to the game only
to be "taken" for his roll.
"It would have been better for me if
we had been torpedoed." he said after
he had been cleaned.
And don't think the doughboy U a
piker. Many a time I've seen $1,000 in
a single pot.
Besides craps, the men sang and
played Black Jack, a favorite card
game of campaigners and one in which
they win and lose big. It wasn't long
before a few of them had all the mon
ey. The youngsters wrote letters until
I thought some of them would never be
able to handle a gtn on account of
writer's cramp. One young fellow
didn't slight a girl In the state of Tex
as, and I suppose he told each she was
the only one. He'ought to get lots of
mail "over there."
Because of the breaks In the sleep on
account of submarine drills and for
other reasons I am ordered not to dis
cuss some of the boys slept in the day
time a good deal. There were not
many duties aboard ship, and the offi
cers let all hands take it as easy as
they could. They knew there would be
plenty to do iu France.
That is why the American soldier Is
lighting for his captain and not to
make the world safe for democracy.
He knows his captain as the fellow
who looks out for him. 1 speak of the
regular, the neat, soldierly looking fel
low you can always tell from a guards
man, when I say this. And I don't
mean that as a reflection. Soldiering la
the regular's business.
In the daytime I saw little of my
husband, but with the aid of Cupid
Private Smithers 1 sneaked up to his
berth often at night He still insisted
he would report me. The old timers
who knew me covered me up, and all
the men were very decent. Whenever
an officer came along they would And
an excuse to gather around me, tnd
they did very little swearing. If ft fel
low forgot and cut loose he got a call
from somebody. The loyalty of thes«
boj3 I had .known on J>crd«
pleased me very much and flattered me
a little, I guess.
My headquarters Were the kitchen,
wbere I was rated ns one of the cooks
and did my share. Here they called mo
"'Silent Joe" becuuse I talked so little
—afraid my voice would betray me.
Glad that they gave me this reputation,
I was ready to live up to It.
Fools Hnsband.
One day I was folding up my blan
ket when I saw my husband coming
down between the tiers of bunks.
"What are you doing there, rookie?"
he demanded. "Don't you know there
la drill on deck?"
My back bad been half turned toward
him. I swung around and tore off my
hat. My hair had been clipped short,
but he recognized me and laughed
Tbo Joke was on him.
"You fooled me, kiddle," he said.
"You'd better go up to drill."
But the best I could do was to help
myself to a good cry on his chest.
There was no one who could seo us.
He was gentle with me as always, and
f was happy. I had needed that cry
a long time. I think he was a little
proud, too, to know his wife would risk
so much and follow liiui so far Just to
be near him. 1 enjoyed that moment.
I didn't care if all the officers on board
saw me, but none did.
It was easy for me to go through the
simple drills on shipboard, for I was
familiar enough with the army to show
up a lot of the rookies at It Some of
the men who did not know I was
aboard were curious about my shaving.
"When do you get out your razor?"
a youngster asked me one day.
"I don't have to use It except once
a week," I answered. "I'm a kid yet.
You go to it every day to look manly."
Once I did try to shove to play my.
part.
Of course there were always the sol
dier songs, and we had quite a collec
tion of niimlcnl instruments aboard.
manned byT)iie~ iWnghboy
who had recently returned from serv
ice In Hawaii had brought a ukelele
along, and be went big, for the boys
liked those dreamy tunea.
It is a strange thing about a soldier
that he does not sing the stuff writtea
for him, but prefers the tear Jerkers
and sentimental ballads The soldier
songs in France will be about back
home and not about beating the bocbes.
Yet these boys were going to thd
trenches and that hell with a smile and
a song. If any reformer kicks on that
crap game ho ought to go himself. Thd
men are gambling their lives. Why not
their money?

Original Meaning of "Garble."
The word "garble" originally meant
"to select for u purpose." There used
to be an ofiicer called "the gurbler of
spices," and it whs his duty to visit the
stores, examine the spices and order
those that did uot come up to standard
to be destroyed, in this way the gar
bled goods were those which had been
sifted of all impurities. So a "garbled"'
report is one that is sifted down and
bereft of some of its original contents.
Nowadays anything "garbled" Is mis
leading and chopped up so as to give a
wrong Impression.—Loudon Opinion.

"Hipress" outwears any boot ever

for "Hipress" isn't "built up" like
other boots. It's welded into one solid
piece without a seam—so there's no
place for it to leak—and it's actually
made of the same extra tough rubber
