Among them was) of how the advancing enemy | drove before him a protecting screen of Frenchwomen into which no Allied gun, dared fire. The atrocity market since, then has suffered a heavy slump—in! <ome cases a discount of 100 per cent— put the picture of the Boche hiding be-| hind a petticoat may well have been a true one. Certainly the ruse, contempt-/ ible as it was Was no novelty, Equally contemptible, and rather more of a novelty, is the attempt of a) certain section of the opposition to the! on’s beneficial legislation plan to deploy behind a screen of American wounded. “What!” they cry. “Otm- pensate the healthy veteran while his| tnsimed brother is still suffering physi-| cally and financially?

The minister, who had been| a welfare worker aboard a transport,| told how he had tried to reform army crap shooters. He said he presented r checkerboard to a group he found roll- ing the bones. He was soon gratified to see that all the crap shooters were gath | ered about the checkerboard, but on get- ting closer he was chagrined to note that the boys were using coins for checkers—and when a player jumped) a coin he kept it.
