GERMANS DIE LIKE HEROES
Little Rear Guard Stood Ground
Against the French Till Last
Man Persisted.

Reconsideration is given Ger
man discipline by Luigi Barzini, war
correspondent with the French OF the
Corriere Della Sera, in a recent arti-
Gle on the fighting about Chambry.
Along the road of Chambry a story
of a combat of man against man was
told by the dead" wrote Mr.. Barzini
"A troop of Germans who had been
left behind to guard the rear, and
had taken cover in a ditch along the
road, offered resistance to the very
last-the last dead Frenchman lay
three meters from the ditch. Then
the storm passed over them and killed
the last one. Stabbed through and
through with the bayonet, the German
soldiers lay against the embankment
In row. Bent bayonets and broken
rifles spoke of the violence of the des-
perate struggle.
THE first in the row was a SER
geant. 1t seemed that even in death he
still uttered commands. Another
group of dead lay about the body of
the officer who had been in command.
The similarity of expression on the
faces OF the dead was striking. Only
the uniform told the private from the
officer. There was a sort OF fraternity
among them in death. The dead Ger
mans still had their knapsacks on their
backs, we're splendidly dressed, and
appeared to be ready for parade"

held the note of shyness, and It was
Samson who spoke.
Il made the others ride on, and / got
Sally to meet you just as she was when
II left her to go East" He spoke with
touch OF the mountaineer's over-sen-
sitive pride. Il wanted you first to see
my people, not as they are going to be,
but as they were. ! wanted you to
know. how proud l am Of them-iust
that way"
That evening, the four of them
walked together over to the cabin of
the Widow Miller. At the stile, Ad-
rienne Lescott turned to the girl and
said:
II suppose this place is pre-empted.
I'm going to take Wilfred down there
by the creek. and leave you two alone"
Sally protested with mountain hos
pitality. but even under the moon she
once more colored adorably.
Adrienne turned up the collar Of her
sweater around her throat, and, when
she and the man who had waited, stood
leaning ON the rail of the footbridge,
she laid hand on his arm.
HAS the water flowed by my mill,
Wilfred?" she asked.
What do you mean% HIS voice
trembIed.
"Will you have anything to ask me
when Christmas comesT
IF l can walt that long, Drennie,'
he told her.
Don't wait, dear" she suddenly ex-
claimed, turning toward him, and
raising eyes that held his answer.
Ask me now!"
But the question which he asked was
one that his lips smothered as he
pressed them against her own.
Back where the poplar threw its
sooty shadow on the road, two figures
sat close together on the top of a
stile, talking happily In whispers. A
girl raised her face, and the moon
shone on the deepness of her eyes, as
her lips curved in trembling smile.
You've come back, Samson" she
said in a low voice, but, if I'd known
how lovely she was, I'd have given up
hoping. l don't see what made you
come"
Her voice dropped again into the
tender cadence of dialect.
Il couldn't live withouten ye, Sam
son. jest couldn't do hit" Would he
-emember when she had said that be-
ore?
Il reckon, Sally" he promptly told
Ter, II couldn't live wi'houten you,
neither" Then, he added, fervently,
I'm plumb dead shore l couldn't"

For moment, she only nodded; but
her eyes we're bent on the road ahead
of her. The man waited in tense
silence. Then, she raised her face, and
It was a face that smiled with the
serenity of one who has wakened out
OF troubled dream.

But, just before they drew up at the
house of old Spicer South, she said:

She nodded, and he went on.
The thing which you call fascina-
ton in me was really just proxy,
Drennie. You were liking qualities in

because you had known him only IN

to his courage. Because he could turn

came up to the house. Adrianne met
Ter at the door, while Samson and
Horton stood back, waiting. Suddenly,
Miss Lescott halted and regarded the
newcomer in surprise. 1t was the
same girl she had seen, yet different
,irl. Her hair no longer fell in tangled
masses. Her feet were no longer bare.
Her dress, though simple, was charm
