The Germans were pouring in a hurricane of shot and shell, liquid fire and poison gas and the strong French veterans were giving way be- fore the never-ending hordes of on- rushing Huns. The French comman- der was already preparing for a hur- ried retreat. The outlook was dark— the road to Paris and the heart of France seemed open to the invader when suddenly from over the hill be- hind the French lines came the sound ot martial music—thousands of young Americans smg(ng confldent!,\' and triompbantly: “The Yanks are com- ing, the Yangs are coming, The Yanks are coming over there” And throush the mist and smoke of baftle hroke the American eoldiers, their fi the fore. their suns at the thefr bayonets fixed, every man sing- ing and glad for the chance to get at the foe.

In twa short hours the battia was won and in reality the war. Waterloo or Gettys- burg saw nothing to_surnass jr.
