have resource to a most ingenius
method of tantalizing their Aus
trian neighbors in the trenches so
near at hand. This is for the
Servians to sing the folk songs of
the various districts of Servia.
In the Austrian ranks there are
many Slavs, or Servians, coming
from Bosnia, Dalmatia. Croatia,
Slavonia, and other Servian prov
inces which are under Austrian
rule. That these folk songs of
the Servians drive almost to
madness and deDertion their
brothers in the rival trenches
there can be no doubt, and no
small portion of the duty Of the
Austrian sentinels is that of
guarding against Servian deser-
lions within the Austrian ranks
rather than Servian attacks from
without.
In response to these folk sings
of the Servians, the Austrians
who are not of Slav origin set
up cries of Come on You half
starved Servians; surrender your
selves; come over to us; We'll
give you something to eat"
In response to this, the Serv-
ians, to show that they are not
half-starved, cease singing and
shower the Austrian trenches
with chicken bones and other
remnants of the evenings repast.
Another favorite pastime of
the Servians is to hurl a whole
vOlley of tin cans and boxes at
the trenches pretending they are
bombs and accompanying them
with vocal volleys which initiate
to perfection the sound of ex-
ploding shells. The Austrians
reply by swearing at the Serv-
ians in all twelve of the languages
most commonly spoken in the
Austrian empire together with a
goodly number of dialect "cuss
words"
