"The police- department, target of v- abuse in every administration, imperfect as it admittedly is, shows a greatly improved record over that of previous years. The black and white record of arrests, prosecutions, recoveries ol automobiles, is so good that it surprise those who habtuaily find fault. No one claims it is anywhere near perfect This paper has found several occasions, to point out lapses and faults which must be remedied. But the average is good. -One significant fact is that Wichita has been found by war department instigat- ors to be one of the cleanest citiesin the United States in the matter of social vice.

The investigation was made by officials without the knowledge of local police and the letter of commendation came unexpectedly from a department head of whom Mr. Ash had never heard before.

We" spent twenty-nine days at the front then we were held in, reserve for about weeks, and from that time onvwe were mostly in support and reserve until we made the big drive.

Believe me, we were sure enough at the-front that time. When we first started over, we were held up by machine guns. The bullets were whizzing everywhere; but it wasn't long until we saw a tank coming across the fieJcU It was one of our tinks to destroy the machine gun nests. It tore the barbed wire entanglehtents down for lis and about that time we saw the Germans running their best It was not long then until we were after them. We had several gas attacks during that time, but we just put on -'our masks 'and went on through.

The big shells were dropping around us very close. Many of them threw the dirt all over me, but I never was hit 1 One time we were all lying down behind a little ridge of ground and a piece of iron of a shell about four inches long and one inch wide hit me just below my collar bone, but it did not come swift enough to hurt me. -1 started to pick it up andnearly burnt my fingers, it was so hot Now, believe me, I sure do think a lot of my helmet.
