By HAZEL CARTER
Mr*. Hiul Carter at Douglaa, Art*., !■ a jroung woman,
twenty*two, whose young husband. Corporal John J. Cartel
of the United Statei army, was ordered to Franca with the

Determined to accompany him, she obtained a eoldler'e uni
form and fell In a» a private on hW departure. She wu Ave
days at sea on the transport before discovered through a
chanoe. After the arrival of the famou* dlvlalon 111 France
she was returned home against her wlahes.
It la a atory of romance, dramatic in Ita qualities, tun or uie soiaier color iuiq
■till Is of real new* value, since Mra. Carter la the first to relate the details of that
voyage and safe arrival first hand—one that made history.

Flirts With Girl.
It was fun stopping nt the towns. [
The people came down to see the troop
trains pass through, ttiul they certainly
treated as royally. They brought us
fruit and candy and cigarettes and all
sorts of delli a ties The girls were
especially enthusiastic. They struck up
conversations with the soldiers, ex
changed addresses and promised to
write often
I talked with a number of girls on
the way east a id nsatins*^ to fool thera
ill. There Is a packet of mail waiting
In Franco now for Private I.eo C. Car
ter. That is the name I chose. I re
member particularly one little girl In a
scxali town in Ohio. She was nliout
twenty years old, dark, very pretty and
very sentimental 011 the subject of
soldiers.
"Where do you come from?" she
called to me, as 1 was sitting in the
car window.
"Arizona." 1 replied.
"Where are you going?"
"Somewhere In France!" I answered
proudly and hopefully too.
She looked so sbt.olied that 1 got out
and talked with her We chatted for
quite awhile. She took my address
and said she would keep me posted on
things back homo when 1 was iu the
trendies I carried the thing through
to the end. 1 even kissed her nt part
ing. She was awfully surprised, but
thrilled at the romance of the situation.
Beiug a Romeo is easier than being a
soldier.
Just before we reached Chicago my
husband came to me and Uegged me
not to go on.
,"lt will be better for you to go home
with the folks," he said. "You can
study nursing and vUter the Hod Cross
as soon as you qualify."
"Yes," 1 replied. "1 can spend months
in preparation, and when 1 finish they
will send me to the e:istern front or
put me on some hospital ship or keep
me on duty here In the U. S. A. Not
for me! I will be no nearer you than
I ivfts Ueforn. If I go sfonjj there will
1* <-i<uuvo ot tioiug Dent Cut duty
back of your lines. At least I will re
quest that position."
"I command you to return." he said
In his severest military manner.
"I'll think Jt over, Corporal Carter,"
1 promised and walked away. When
the traiu pulled out of Chicago I was
In the cook car peeling potatoes.
When we arrived in Hoboken the
men went straight from the train to
the transport. Here again my husband
remonstrated with inc.
Husband Ag-ain Urges Iler tD Return
"You've got away with It this far,"
he said. "Don't J'uu think it is time to
go back?"
'TH say goodby, and I'll go—if I
Vus my answer.
When the time came I fell In lino
again with tho cooks and went aboard
th© barae.
The barge was tied alongside the
transport where the Eighteenth was
embarking. U was piled high with
supplies Which were being loaded on to
the ship. These kept arriving all day
and far into the night Great truck
loads oi them were emptied out oa the
deck. This continued during the entire'
three days we were anchored there. 1
worked like a Trojan, and my hands
were well blistered, but niy heart was
happy.
There were no sleeping quarters oa
the barge, but there were plenty of
piattresses. Tho cooks were quarter
ed together. We slept on mattresses
thrown on tho floor Inside tho barge
cabin. It was not uncomfortable. I
used to wake up in the night, look out
at the dusky form of tho transport
swaying gently on the tide and pray I
would not be discovered until I was
aboard and well out on to the ocean.
The boys around me snored peacefully.
They had nothing to worry them but
the work of unloading the supplies.
Every evening there was a crap game
in the cabin. It was what you would
call a fading game—noisy, with calls
for "Little Joe" and the rest The
players got most of their fun out of
Joshing one another. One man usually
took all the money. The next night
some feilow—a winner in another game
W>uld take it away from him, and so
it went Finally, the lucky survivor
had it alL
There were few, if any, shore leaves
after the men boarded the transport
The furthest they went was ont on the
pier. Across the river, they could see
! the gay lights of New York beckoning.
' They had read often-of the Great White
Way. Pew of them had ever seen it
Here they were, within a few minutes
of it yet it might as well have been a
'thousand miles a wax . .
"I'd like to talJfe Just one slant," said
a rookie to me one evening, as we were
standiug on deck, gazing across the
river at the mass of lights we knew
was New York. Tie was a big, raw
boned fellow, typical of the west "I'd
like to give the old town the once over
as long as I'm going over to fight for
her. Gee, look at them lights. Must
be a billion of them. And the build
ings. IClnda tall, eh? If the Germans
ever started shooting at them, good
night."
Over on the transport an accordion
was whining "Sweet Adeline." It
swung into "I've lleen Working on the
Railroad"—old trooper songs. Then
came " 'Way l>own Yonder In the Corn
field." The boys were harmonlxlng
again. Always singing, singing, slng
iug. Music is the .safety valve of the
soldier.
All the next morning there was an
unusual hurrying to get the supplies
aboard. We knew the hour of sailing
was close at hand, although no orders
had been given. You could feel It In
Ibe air, the same as you can a strong
current of electricity. I had not seen
my husband for three days He was
busy aboard ibe transport, and I kept
close to the barge.
Shortly before noon 1 felt the time
had come. 1 crept up a ladder to the
top of the barge. For awhile I stayed
there waiting for the way to be clear.
Soldiers were hurrying back and forth
on deck. No one noticed me. If they
did they supposed, of course, I was one
of them. I waited until the deck at
that part of the transport was free of
officers, because 1 did not want to be
questioned Just then. There was a pe
riod of confusion Incident to getting
under way. I came up and stepped
over on to the deck of the transport
We were on our way to France.
CHAPTER H.
Eight Among the Army "Doufh
boys."
rmny not seem far to most folki
from a barge moored alongside i
| transport, over the side and aboard
I hn» if looked like a long. tough Journal
to me.
Three days and nights I tolled an<
sweated and worked on that barge un
til I thought I would drop, but all th<
time 1 was figuring and watchlng
watching for the chance to get aboari
the big dun colored ship on which mj
husbaud and another piece of th<
Pershing expedition were to go t<
France. This watchful waiting won
on my tired nerves and weary body.
From the time we left the train I
hadn't seen my husband, and I begar
to think one look at him would be s
great tonic for sore eyes. Continual!;
I strained In vain for a single glimpse
On the barge 1 had no trouble conceal
Ing the fact 1 was a woman, because
everybody was too busy loading sup
plies to pay attention to me, and 1
found a place to sleep off by myself,
which was a comfort. At least I sneak
ed my uniform off—for a short time
Finally there was even more activity
than on the previous days, and tuga
began to bustle aud cluster and fuas
busily about us, so I knew If 1 ever
were golug to make a break it would
have to be then. It gave me a good
Idea of how a soldier feels before he
goes "aver the top" for the first time.
Aboard at Last.
They were getting ready to cast off
the barge, and most of the officers
were lining the rails of the transport
astern when I made my try. Once 1
had my feet on that deck I decided to
go below and stay as quiet as possible
so 1 lost no time in ducking Into the
first companionway I saw. Unfortu
nately for me, a second lieutenant hap
pened to be ducking out at the same
time, and we bumped hard- He reeled
back and said:
"What the devil are you doing?"
I had come to attention at once and
saluted.
"I was going below, air," I mumbled
in my deepest voice.
"Who are you?"
"Carter, sir, K company."
"Carter, be more careful about turn
tag corners and going In and out of
doors after this," he said touchlly and
moved off.
"Yes, sir," 1 answered aud saluted.
When he had gone I was trembling
all over, aud I proceeded more care
fully, you may be sure. It waa the
first time I had ever been aboard a big
ship—the first time I had ever seen salt
water, In fact—so 1 didn't know my
way arouud very well. However, when
I got downstairs I found that one of
the transport's decks had been made
Into a big bunk room with the parti
tions knockecL-Ouf -and. hunts In tiers
ot three ench'airiiruiiiid " be* siiies.
Luckily I spotted a couple of the
boys from Company K and followed
them to tbe section in which they were
quartered. They looked like old home
week to one lonesome girl, and I got to
thinking of the nights down in Douglas
when they used to come over and sit
on our porch and spill close harmony
all over the place Rut they didn't
recognize me. so I threw my outfit into
a middle bunk that was empty. I was
lucky to find one to spare, because they
were using all the available space on
that ship. The bunks were made out
of canvas, stretched very tight, and
they rode comfortably enough when
we ouce got started.
I coultr feel the ship getting under
way, and I was a little sad. with no
one to talk to ami longing to get out of
my clothes and stretch out iny weary
body ou one of those bunks. I was so
tired of inhabiting that uniform 1 knew
I would give anything to I'eel a little
soft lingerie next 111c and perhaps have
on a petticoat again, although the)'
tell me the girls down east don't wear
any of them nowadays- only the old
fashioned girls.
Under Way.
The men were all around me, many
I had known In Douglas, but they
didn't bother with me, because I guess
they were a little blue at leaving them
selves, as anybody was bound to be at
a time like that, and 1 suppose it was
the sober atmosphere got me to longing
for that lingerie there. You could have
cut it with a knife. The old timers
probably put me down for a sobby
Sammy who had just Joined. Finally
I straightened myself up and thought:
"Buck up! You're a deuce of a sol
dier."
I looked around. The old timers who
had campaigned in the Philippines and
some even in Cuba back in 1898, while
most of them had been in Mexico, did
not look sad, but 1 will s:iv there were
darned"fc-w of tlicui grinning as we f«lt
the Bblp slip cut of that dock. The
youngsters—the boys who had just
come In the regiment on the border
and had never been east before—show
ed it. They didn't know whether they
wouid ever be back again, and they
were thinking about it and about the
little red house with the white fenc«
back home and the girl and wondering
why they joined the army and wishing
they were in Arizona. But I don't
want to pull any sob stuff.
"This la a fine way to send ns off,"
complained one boy who was not more
than nineteen, a very pronounced rook
ie. "There are no flags, no bands, no
cheers, no beer, nothin'. It's a great
way to fight a war."
"Walt till you get over there, kid,
and you'll wish you were back here,"
remarked Frlvatp Bmithers, a grand
fighting man. but always a private, al
though an old timer in the army. Hia
name Is not Sinithers, either, if I told
his real name it might get him in bad.
"But hold yotir head up. sou. The
worst yon enn get is to be killed, and
you won't know about that," he con
cluded

"Yes." replied the returned tourist;
"I had. I was dnue up at Monte Car
