German soldier recently undertook for
supplies within the English lines in
Flanders. He writes:
Neither the eneny's fire nor The in
clemency of the weather can affect
the courage and the humor of our
men. Owing to the bad roads, which
are often made impossible by shell
pits, and also to the Tapid advance or

bic for the commissariat columns to
keep pace with the fighting line. Of
ten, therefore, our men nave to
| assuage their hunger with vegetables
picked up in the fields. In the captur-
ed English trenches, however, they
always find many empty meat tins.
One day, when fights had been plenti-
full, and our men were experiencing
the pangs Of hunger, an intrepid
youth craWled across to one tf the
enemy's trenches which was very near
| at hand, laid down some paper money
(which he weighted with a one
near the sleeping Engiishmen, and
returned unmOlested to our position
with several tins Of cOrned beef. 4
volley of abuse from the ene1ny's
trench acquainted our men that this
shopping expedition had been dis
covered by the awakened sentries,
who vented their anger in expletivcs
such as 'Beasts!
y lake this opportunity Of correct

~ IS very prevalent, ma 1ely, that our
troops no longer take a1-y English
prisoners-or, in other words, that If
the English are captured they are re-

cruel methods Of English warfare.
English prisoners continue to be taxi

mot so numerous may be due to the
fact that for some time past the Eng
