Tall And Everywhere He Was nm
Easy Target Never Again For ME,
Says This Brave Warrior.

r. r.. Gardner, OF Baltimore, who IL
50 tall he could not find single
trench in Europe to fit him, is back
from the front where he fought in
the British army as a member OF
King Edwards Horse, with just two
pregnant words, Never again"
Gardner went to England in DE
cember, and returned on the Ameri-
can liner New York about month
ago with much experience and a
wrist watch. He IL nearly seven feet
tall, and says he was detailed as a
"creeper" in the trenches. This is his
chronicle.
I'VE were sent to France in Febru-
ary, where we mounted at Calais and
rode to Neuve Chapelle. There we
spent a lot of time in holes In the
ground shooting at an unseen enemy
and being shot at ad lib.
AS was pretty biz man ! was
often detailed al 'creeper.' They're
quite an institution in the service
now. The duty of the 'creeper' is to
sneak toward the German lines at
night to locate snipers. The way you
locate them is by letting them fire at
you; you catch the fash Of the rife
see? Then your side fires at the
flashes. It's quite game, believe
me.

a chance to loot now and then, Be-
cause that's permitted, but it would
never do with us.
The rules in the trenches are very
strict. Any man who puts his hand
out is liable to imprisonment at hard
labor for two years. The officers dis
covered that men were doing this tc
