Tonight T had a rather amus- ing incident that I must tell you of. for my customary evening the beach which, by the clear unbroken streteh of velvety sand almost four miles long. There were four young fairly well dressed girls trailing along behind me as they had been to the from a nearby town to see some of the fellows here at the sta- tion. T was doing my best to think up something congenial to say to onc of them in French, rather, to all of them. They only kids about sixteen years old. There was a mutt of a dog that had been following me and T saw that he tagged along after them when they passed me and I was glad of it for I did not want to be responsible for the brute. As T half asleep the warm sand the came back with the dog by the knap of the neck and told me in excellent English that was sorry the purp followed and that dogs were not allowed to enter the was headed for. It took off my feet and 1 blubbered like idiot.

I do not see why they have not cnough to appreciate the seriousness of their sit- uation and why they do not quit now instead of keeping on and losing all where now they may not lose so much. T hope that now they will lose every blessed thing that they | have. T have no sympathy for any- | thing German now. I do not think | that 1 should have the slightest com- punction against committing all kinds of desecration against everything Ger- man so long as I did not trespass on the laws of humanity. I had just as soon do anything to a German T would to any brute that threatened me in my own home. T really believe that I would be satisfied to break up a German family and scatter it to the four winds of the Heavens that have been barred against them and all theirs for T am now firmly convinced that Germany and Madness are syn- onymous and that it would be a case of my having to look out for their do- ing a similar stunt if T did not beat | them to it. T have scen much here that has turned me against them and the feeling within mec heen aroused more keenly than it could be by anything I could experience in the States. Tt is to be a battle to the death now and I am sure that it will not be us that shall draw a last gasp. How the Lord suffers such beings to crawl about on his footstool I do not see. This last German drive has shown us many things and we shall sce more before we are thru for are going to see all those poor people back on the soil they have been driv- | en from and we arc going to see the Hun and his Hellians rebuilding their | homes that he has destroyed.

Today we have .received the news of the depredations off the Jer- Cannot say that I am cither surprised nor chagrined for I have been expecting such a perform- ance right along although 1 do not think that it will be a regular occur- ence. Over there it must have hit pretty hard and I know that its sole accomplishment will be to help us all in our fight. It should bring close to home what the Hun is doing and shall probably be more to his damage than to his benefit. 1 Jook upon it as one of the dying and that it simply something that they hit upon to buoy up the failing spirits of the Ger- people.

We had a com- pass that was none too reliable and | almost no chart, but the chart was no | good as the seas were coming in so it | was impossible to see what was on it and the first one rinsed off all the cor- | rections so there we were. We cruised for nearly six hours and all that T had | to set the course by coming in was the | direction of the waves for I ire the wind had changed. T was not sure whether the sea had changed or not but that was our only salvation and I hung to it, After using the wind and sea ahout three hours we hit buoy and I knew where we were at al- though I did not know what progress we had made nor where we would go from there although I did know that we were ahout five miles off the coast. We held the same course and it soon lighted up and showed when we reached the tops of the waves, that we were about seven miles from the entrance of our harbor. You can be- lieve me, I was glad to see that for there was a time that I was thinking that would not be able to get in | again and T was somewhat afraid as we did not have any sailors in the hoat that would know how to handle them- selves in of trouble and all hands were sea-sick. I was sick for about two minutes but T ‘shot the peas’ and then I was feeling fine, To make matters the coast here is ex- tremely rocky and we collided with point that was just under the water and which was so sharp that the sea did not leave the customary white blanket that T was looking out | for.
