a straight line to the twelve-pounders, and
precisely over the spot where Lord
Methuen had just been sitting. Needless
TO say, the engineers observatory was
promptly taken down.
"As for the officers, they take no more
notice of the enemy's shells than they
would take Of snowballs, which is possibly
the proper attitude for an officer to take.
At the same time, considering that the
Beers use almost entirely black powder
so that the firing of the gun can be seen
long before the shell comes, one would be
inclined to say that ordinary prudence
would suggest that even officers should
take shelter until the shell has arrived.
OF course 1t is a thousand to one against

life for no possible reason whatever. Early
next morning the Beers got even closer
and twice hit a gun epaulment. Then, as
our guns were ordered to remain silent,
everyone sat down quietly behind sandbags
