E. F. vetran3. Frank Nelson . of Dillon, Montana, aged fcO, claims to be the Methusaleh of all veterans after four months overseas service. Private Bell, who prefers his army title to the "Judge" that prefaced his patronymic cognomen avant le guerre, is a kindly looking old gentleman, small of stature, with gray hair and keen blue eyes. - One must tax his imagination to picture him trudging through a sea of mud carrying an eighty pound pack or going over the top side by side with huskies forty years his junior. He did it, though. His record shows it, and a lot of other things, too, for Private Bell was not only a good and faithful soldier, but he topped the ordi nary and ranks among our most distin guished doughboys. Mustard gas took his eye-brows away in the Argonne and tried to steal his breath at Ver dun, but the venerable battler sur vived and, indeed, recovered so well that a few months later his name ap peared as the subject of very com plimentary articles in French, English and Italian publications, r When the war broke out, Judge Bell applied for enlistment but was sum marily rejected by a matter of fact re cruiting officer, who didn't even dream that there was a chance for the appli cant. The judge was not stumped. however, and one day caught a train I to "Washington. Due to his persistence, I he was one day admitted to the pres ence of a high official in the war de partment. A short time, later he made a -bee line for the ; nearest recruiting nfficn and exhibited a paper dated October 31, 1917, signed by the adju tant e-eneral. to the effect that he "au thorizes the enlistment of Alden Bell, formerly a member of Co.
