The italian Soldier Under Fire.

These Italian soldiers were a new
experience to me. For sheer unemo-
tional daring l have never seen any
thing to equal the behavior of the Ital-
ian soldier under fire, and mark you,
heavy fire. They are, as a whole. a
splendid body of men from the point
of view Of physique and discipline.
Much more than this can be said, how
ever. The good spirits and earnest
ness and other good soldierly qualities
of these men can only be spoken of in
terms of highest praise. "Chummy"
is the word must use to describe the
relationship and feeling existing be-
tween officers and men, and under
such conditions where each is so es-
sential to the other wiser policy can
not be adopted.-Frank ]. Magee, in

Many experiments we're carried out
