SHALL never forget the time I saw the Royal Horse Artillery 60 into action, for a more thrill- ing sight would be hard to Imagine, I was out alone in the car, and I had been doing patrol duty. L went rather closer to our firing line than I intended to, but decided to push on until I struck ths “route na- tional” #0 I would have a good road all the rest of the way back to camp. I had to go through the village of Dickebusch, and as I came to the crossroads just outside the village a sentry stopped me and said I could not £0 on. It seems that eome Ger- mans had got a machine gun in the steeple of the churoh and were clean- ing up everything that tried to pass. T).o horse artillery had been sent for, and I learned that they were on their | way even then, I decided to wait around and see what happened, so I pulled in to the side of the road. I had hardly stopped when I heard a rush and rattle that @ounded like an old flivver in the distance, Around the curve dashed eight horses on the dead gallop, pulling @n elghteen-pounder behind them, They dashed by, but about fifty yards ahead of me they swung around and trained that gun on the chureh, There was a moment's pause, and then sh spoke, and away went stec- |p Germans, machino gun and ail ‘The first shot bed been « Cirect it, and it couldn't have bao -etter if they had tried a teo>ana years, It was the very next day after this Danton, event that I got into as tleht a fix as I ever care to find myself. I was ordered to take three officers to a place called Kemmel. I had been there before, and from what I had seen ; BEST NOVELLA PUuRLinHEn ? 1 ov THIS PAGE COMPLETE EVERY TWO WEEks, then I wasn't the trip again We started off about 1 o'clock and expected to be back, by I noticed as I came to the Kemme! road that there were two sentries on duty there, but as they only saluted the officers and didn't say anything I thought no more about it. Now Kemmel les at the foot of a hill and ts tucked in be- tween Mt. Noir and Mt. Kemmel. It would be a cozy little place in peace time, but {t is an awful trap to get caught in when there is a war on, T sent the car up the hill as fast as he could nd it was @ long climb, As we went over the brow and atart- ed on the down grade we ran right under the nose of the German artil- lery observers. ‘This road was oficial. and those sentries should have stopped us, Well, it scared me so that I went down that hill so fast those officers cager about making ly close: twust have thought they were in a parachute, As we entered the village the shells commenced to drop in on us and we ran for the nearest shelter, which happenod to be a brewery, There wasn't much left of the place, anyway, as {t had been in German hands, and we had shelled them out of ft, and when we had taken tt they had shelled us out of it. Anyway, we left the cur and crawled Into the cel- lar, It was wet-and filthy, but it looked just like heaven to me that day. We lay t in all this filth hour after hour, while the shells Mterally poured in all around us. They cer- tainly wasted a lot of good ammuni- tion trying to get us, but the best of it was that they didn't succeed, One of the officers remarked, during a mo- ments silence, that the Crown Prince of Germany must have made his headquarters in the place when it was in German hands. Another of. ficer replied that he wished the Crown Prince was there now. We lay there till the fire which it did about 6 o'clock. let up, 1 was worrying about getting back, and I was also wondering what hag become of the car. If it was gone, we might Just ag well kiss ourselves goodby, for our chances of getting out on foot would be slim When the fire had abated we came out and looked around. The enemy certainly had made a mess of the place, for even the top story of the brewery had been shot away from over our heads, I went to look the car over, and you can just believe | was relleved to find that, aside from having @ few holes through the body, it was all right. The officers decided to walt until tt was dark before chancing to run back, I didn’t know what was g£o- Ing to happen to us, I wasn't very familiar with the road, and IT was afraid they would have some kind of @ barricade up, or have a few ma- chine guns trained on us or some- thing equally unpleasant. I certainly was dreading that ride ‘ack, but there was no other way out, and we were between the devil and the deep sea, It was at a time ke that that I wished that I had never seen the British Army. I turned the car around, and as soon as it dark we got in and started I opened her up wide, and by the time we got tu the bottom of the hill we were doing about fifty miles an hour, and I couldn't see very much elther, for, of course, I did not use any lights I didn't know what was waiting for us at the top of the hill, but I did know that if there was anything there we wero going right through !t, even {f we didn't go any furthe ne ridiculous part of it was that w went right through and never saw thing. Absolutely nothing happened, but I don’t ever want to feel again the way I felt ¢oming up that hill Shortly after this I learned that the British Tommy ts a great gam and will gamble with, on, or for an thing. Trench pools used to be very Popular, About ten fellows got to- gether and each put ten franca in @ Pool just before they went into ac tion, They left this money with some one behind the lines, for they would be In action anywhere from six days to three weeks, The idea of the pool was thi Those who lived to get back would take the money and split it ev among themselves. If only one times the pools would fai and sometimes the reverse ever they bad went in, » but what It was tho only gamble I ever saw where you couldn't lose, If you came out safely, you were bound to get your own moneyback, at least The Tommies are strong for carry- ing pets with them, too. They keep canaries, rats, mice, dogs, cats, goats, and even pigs, and they will go hun- gry themselves rather than seo the object of their affections want for anything. On the march if they get tlred they may throw thelr equip: ment away, but I never heard of one yet who would give up his mascot CHAPTER IX. URING the winter there wan a lot: of talk about the “Mad Major.” Ho was an artillery officer who was just about the biggest daredevil I ever heard of. He kept an aeroplane himself, and if he wanted to correct a range he would go and drop smoke bombs over the point he wanted to get. Ho was ab- solutely fearless and would fly #0 low that they would be potting at him with revolvers, but it didn’t seem to bother him. I have heard that he did more dam- age with his battery than a whole brigade of ordinary artillery could under ordinary conditions. I don't know what became of him tn the end, it the last of bis stunts that I hi bout was this: There was a big inch howitzer doing us an awful lot of damage, It was out of range of were put ur guns and wo much yout &# to how to get It out of ac- Won. The “Mad Major* went out in his aeroplane and took with him ist on@ bomb, a 100-pounder. He sted the gun he wanted while fly- ng at an altitude of 8,000 feet, Ho t right over the position and pped his engine. He did a nose ve to within 400 feet of the gun. Chen he dropped his bomb and blew tho thing to atoms, He got back safely, but the planes of his machine vere riddled with bullets! om after this we were on the , and, as it happened, we went bad to worse, Tho first day wo entered @ little place that was un- upled by troops, and we decid spend the night there, The ( 4 must have heard of our arr mov promptly, for before we had been an hour shells began to drop us offlcer | was driving waa with at the time the first one burst nded in the backyard of the Louse We were in and the force of alone | }oy pretty The Home Dressmaker’s Summer Wardrobe ig Wikdved Lads o tees mye two “ ty heed of jon 1 ation of plain net A net and lace achieves a parties ’ ° a eet ore. a waist of net, with glose. « \ ( line, and at tn re od of gay colored rib. bows Hore at the hip line aiso te to be noted the starting of « soft water- fall of the net overskirt.

The officer decided that we would get dut of the place and find some nice quiet spot to spend the night. We left at once and went about five miles down the road until we came to a field ambulance. We found that they had some apare stretchers, so we decided to satay there. The officer's servant carried stretchers in for all of us, and after having something to eat we went right to sleep, as we were tired out. 1 don't belleve we had been asleep more than an hour when a shell landed tn that fleld ambulance!

I think they were in the same position, for they didn’t try to get to clone quar- ters. So we kept at It all afternoon, until at night the Germans retired, and we camped a little further on and waited for our main body to come up. Our casualties numbered only about twenty dead, and we buried them in the churchyard before we left. I passed through Pradelles about two months later, and I went into the churchyard where those chaps were buried. The people of the vil- lage have set little white crosses at the head of each grave. On each cross de the name, number and re mont of the soldier lying below, and under that ts “Mort de ta Champ 4’'Honneur.” It was a most thought- ful thing for those poor peasants to do, Tt wae in @ village, called Outras- teone, quite near Pradelies, that I frat eaw the Prince of Wales, He was with Sir John French, and they were reviewing @ brigade that hadn't been in the country very long.
