My first real intimacy with Yuan be-
gan with a daylight breakfast at his
camp where / had spent the whole
night in giving surgical relief to his
wounded. Hunger had a new meaning
that cold December dawn, and coffee
and bacon seemed the most delectable
things to be thought of; in fact, the
thought of them was insistent and com
polling, and the call to "eat food was
obeyed with alacrity.
What was my chagrin, however on
seeing the table set with but six bowls
of rice, three at each of the two places,
and no prospect of anything further. 1t
seemed that | could devour the whole
six and still keep on thinking of oof-
fee and bacon.
Before l had finished one bowl was
uncomfortably full and still hungry.
Yuan had in the mean time, with his
bowl to hts lips and his chop stick S
keeping a steady stream into his mouth,
emptied his three bowls, and seeing thai
! could eat no more, he took my portion
and soon finished it. If it is true that
IAN army moves on it's stomach" Yuan
should be good soldier.
Yuan did not impress me as an UNI
kind man; in fact | later saw evil
dences. In matters too intimate for mar
ration, to indicate quite the contrary.
Yet when he refused me permission to
amputate the arm of one of his soldiers
with the amused remark 'Of what
good would a one-armed soldier be?''
he seemed cruel especially as / as
surod HIM that otherwise the man
would die in three days-as he did. Still,

after recovery he took the helpless man
on as a supernumary or pensioner at his

side of the case from his own military

doubtless counted for little. in view of
the vast masses to be drawn upon for
