ITO the east Of Fontenelle, on the
summit OF Hill 627. we organized,
after long months of skilful work, a
very strong line of resistance, pro-
tected by advance works. The Ger
mans laid siege To this hill. At the
end of March their trenches were
only 20 TO % metres from our posi-
tons Suspicious noises heralded the
beginning of the subterranean strug-
gle. The enemy. giving up the idea
of rushing the hill. was preparing 10
undermine ii. In this district how
ever. there is a layer of solid rock
underneath the soil which resists the
drills and picks We were ahead of
the enemy in pushing cOuntermines
beyond our positions.
"A lively affair occurred around
the advanced works of our lines. in
front of which we had succeeded in
blowing up a German sap. our ad-
versaries then prepared heavily
loaded mine just underneath the sur
face of the ground ON April To- at

the night. attempted a coup de main
on the right OF this position. Shower
ing bombs and grenades in front of
them, they crossed the space which
separated them from the communica-
ton trenches and believing that they
had surrounded the defenders. they
called out, Surrender FTenchmen!'
But we had dug during the evening
new communication trench, which
enabled the defenders to evacuate
the post, which they had previously
mined.
.As soon as the Germans had set
tied down in the position the order
was given to blow it up, but the man
told off to fire the mine was thrown
down by a grenade at the moment
when he was approaching to light the
fuse. His neighbOrs at once replaced
him, and an extremely violent explo-
sion shook the whole work. 1t was
followed by cries Of terOrr and pain
A hundred Kilograms Of explosives
had hurled the position and the old
trench into the air.
I'VE then threw up a barricade
against which the enemy vainly dash

DON'T WASH YOUR
HAIR WITH SOAP

When you wash your hair. don't
use soap. Most soaps and prepared
shampoOs contain too much alkali,
which is very injurious, as it dries
the scalp and makes the hair brit
tie.
The best thing to use is Just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil. for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats soaps or
anything else all TO pieces You
can get this at any drug store and
a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it IN, about a tea
spoonful is all that is required. It
makes an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather, cleanses thorough
ly and rinses out easily The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is
soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy.
