Attractive Window Display 

For Armistice Day 

There is a very interesting display this week in the window of the lunch room of Willard Teeting on Main street, Altamont that is attracting attention. 

As Wednesday was “Armistice” day Mr. Teething arranged an exhibit of war relics from France. He saw service with the Machine Gun Co., of the 106 Infantry. 

Four framed pictures, Camp Dix, Company A. 105 Infantry, Roster of the 12th Infantry, and certificate given to all men wounded in action, with several American flags formed a background for the relics which consisted to German gas mask, French and German bayonets from Argonne Forests, English hob nail shoe, German helmet, German and French coins and the dreaded dum dum bullets. 

One of the prized exhibits was a medal Mr. Teeling received with three service bars, similar to those received by all men who saw action, the bars representing the battle fronts. 

Mr. Teeling saw active service until October 17, when he was wounded by a shell on the drive to St. Souplet.
