LIEUT. VICTOR
GIES HOME FROM
OVERSEA DUTY
Returning from 11 months' service
with the American expeditionary
forces' in France, Lieutenant Victor
Gies arrived in the city this morning.
He landed at Newport News July 31
and since then has been visiting in the
east
LXeutenant Gies was stationed at
Camp Dodge previous to his assign
ment to overseas duty and received
his commission there. He arrived in
France about a month before the
armistice was signed and with his
regiment was on his way to. the front
at the time the news of the signing
came. While overseas he" was con
nected with Company K, 809th in
fantry. Delay on account of the in
fluenza epidemic held the regiment at
the port of debarkation for nearly two
weeks upon arriving, he said.
In speaking of the casualties lue
to the influenza epidemic, Lieut. Gies
said that they were far heavier in his
regiment than the normal' casualty on
the battlefield. Of the 3,500 men of
his regiment, 600'died of influenza, he
said. Of the 7,000 on board the U. S.
S. President Grant, the transport* on
which he crossed, one and a half per
cent of the troops succumbed to the
epidemic while crossing and two per
cent while in detention at the port of
debarkation.

BEEN GRAVELED
A fine piece of graveling1»has just
been completed on the north road, -the
state highway leading north from
East Grand Forks, and it is expected
that before the season is over the
road will be in excellent traveling con
dition.
Six miles of road leading north frtSm
the Northern Pacific railroad cross
ing at the end of DeMers avenue, has
been graveled for the second time.
.The road was first widened and grav
eled about four years ago, and since
then has been one of the finest high
ways in this vicinity.
Several Allotments

After a somewhat slack afternoon,
yesterday, business picked up again
this morning at the post office, and a
number of orders for government sur
plus foodstuffs were turned fo Post

Already the allotments for this of
fice of rice, baked beans and cherries
have been used up, Miss Thoreson
