He saw squads of men come down
the hill and wander about crafty,
though with a purpose. Spinning
webs of .barbed wire, he was certain.
He saw two treeless belts, one three
quarters of the way up the hill, and
the other right at the top.
Night came after centuries of wait

a mile, perhaps. Then he crouched
and craWled at times, seldom stand

quent intervals he paused and strain

at time, and bug1es blew the army
before him to sleep. He went on.
From the top of the rise above him
shot a binding eye of light. 1t pierced
the distance to the ilorthward for an
instant, Settled to the ground with
jerk and swept in a gigantic arc over
the country, slowly, Securing the
open places, Illuminating the brush.
Jimmy dropped just before it reached
him, flattened his face in the sand.
He could see the white glare all about
him for time, Then it became dark
again and he looked UP to see the
finger of white drilling the night far
away. s.,
The man took long chance on the
open country and made cautious
run for it. He went quietly until his
foot slipped and he went down, bang
ing his head on a rock. The blow
made him dizzy and the noise he
made terrified him. But he got up
and stumbled along in the darkness,
ready to flop to the ground the in
slant the searchlight turned his way
again. He gained the timbered
stretch that was above and breathed
easier. 1t was more difficult to travel,
of course, for the brush was stiff and
thick, but he was Under cover at least.

stunted forest glow. .........
With great difficulty Jimmy worm
ed his way through the wire. 1t cut
his clothing and it pricked his flesh,
but, he did not heed. On he went
again, making every move take him
nearer the crest of the hill and max

crest of the hill and making every

possible. He worked his way through
another wire net, worse than the first.
Then the light came back and he lay
for a long time. Perhaps 1t was
fortunate thing that he did not feel
compelled to lay still, for he heard
something "a faint and regular
sound. He pressed his ear to the
ground and strained to listen. 1t grew
stronger, stopped, receded, and died
away. After a time it came back
again, growing stronger but not
strong, stopping, and, after a deliber-
ate interval, resurning, only to die off.
After he had crawled fifty yards more
and stopped to listen, he heard the
sound plainly. In fact, he could hear
the boots that made it swishtng
through the grass. He waited until
the sentry reached the end of his post
and turned back. With utmost eau
ton, then, he hurried along for many
yards, stopped, scarcely breathing,
and waited while the soldier came
and went again. z.---...-
Thus he proceeded. Two more wire
webs ripped his clothing and haggled
his flesh; three more sentries patroled
the path he took. Out of the brush
he worked, into the open strip, not
four hundred yards from the ridge,

grew thickly. He crawled short way
into this and then sat up, looking
