for their cooking round the blaze. Suddenly
there is a stir. Draft, stand BY" comes like
a roar from the platoon sergeant. Hearts
beat quicker; something is to happen. Ratons
are left uncooked, kits are donned, and In
flash all are ready.
Again the roar: Twenty men for fatigue!
All volunteer. Its trench fatigue adds
the sergeant dscouragingly. None is de-
TERED. They press around eager for the first
trip into the great unknown.
"Stand back there, damit! Stand back!
Only twenty; carry on, corporal; only twenty
no more"

troops are being made tonight in preparation

their way through these with great diihcuity
to the heart Of the ruined village Here still
remains the inevitable bandstand, heaped
around with barbed wire frames ready for the
firing line "Knife-rests,' says some one,
pointing them out; and, sure enough, knife
rests it is to be. Two men take each frame
and the little procession starts on its journey
trenchward The corporal acts as guide. Ger
man shells are searching the roads for possible
reinforcements. The highway is decidedly
unhealthy, so the little party heads for the
fields, plunging at every step deep into the
mud.
That's it. That's it," comes from some
one ahead, pointing TO the frame OF one
time farm.
THAT'S what?" comes a voice. "What,

stabbing points of fame from hundreds of
rifles. A fresh angry outbreak is just start
ing; a very junior subaltern, perhaps, has
been seeing things or listening post may
suspect working party of running out sap;
or, more likely still, some very raw regiment
has suddenly got its wind up" and set the
whole murderous machinery working, unkind-
ly regardless of reliefs and relieved, sappers
and fatigues. Communication trenches are
not yet popular with the troops, nor are many
to be found. They scorn TO accept such cover,
but maybe three-foot depth Of mud and
water has much to do with the scorn; for now,
with the air full of screaming whizz-bangs,
"Johnsons" and "Marias" hurting overhead
like enormous express trains, their popularity
is great and sudden. Star shells from both
sides throw their ghostly lights on the scene,
and the party is ordered to drop "knife-rests"
and shelter in the nearest trench. Twenty
minutes, and the "strafng" ceases as suddenly
as it began. Now for the last lap. Like
black wall, the front line trench looms ahead.
Eagerly they press forward, anxious to be rid
Of their burdens and gain the shelter of
friendly trench. But their troubles are far
from over.

YEARLY on they trudge, heads down under
the skyline, stumbling at every step in the mud
but keeping close behind along the trench.
Presently the black wall disappears and sunk
en- trenches take the place of raised parapets.
Here they are fully exposed to the German
lines with darkness their only cover. They
must have been or heard. for three sue
cessive star shells are shot skyward. Before
the first can burst into light twenty men are

as they bury themselves into the walls. On
again. The tipping bullets are getting I'M
pleasant. Invountarily the new men duck
their heads Next time they will know better.
Only new men do that. They will know that
bullets warn too late. Another barrier.
Halt Who goes there?" Evidently the
corporal knows the voice, for his answer is not
to be found in the book Of army regulations.

that won't do for the sentry, even from pal.

"Alls well. Pass Bluffs"
Beyond the barrier he chills all over as he
understands. "A blooming Brass Hat, too.
Who'd "a thought it," But Brass Hats are
really quite good fellows underneath their
fear-inspirng red bands and tabs
Some dark figures are slowly approaching.
Keep TO the right" cries the corporal, and
down goes the echo. The approaching pro-
cession moves slowly, and no one is cheered
by the sight Slowly, slowly the bearers pass
with their suffering burdens-the first gather
ings of the days all too rich harvest.
The ground is now pockmarked with holes.
Each one must now fend for himself. It's
slow work. More reserve trenches are being
passed. These are occupied, and sentry calls
must be answered quickly and often. Like long
serpentine monsters the trenches wind away
in black lines on either side. Here and there
in the mazes the glow from the braziers lights
up weirdly the faces of the men, and the black
ness of the night is only intensified by the

Skeleton FARM" and the procession seems
not to ike the name, for they certainly move
faster. Dead COWS and horses are passed.
"Ouf!" The twenty men try hard to hold
both noses and "knife-rests" at one and the
same time.
"Ware holel" cries the guide; pass it
down" And Ware hole" echoes down the
line. On now across the fields to meeting
of bride paths.

Forward" No second order is required.

is repeated until it dies away behind. Not
that the ditch is 'wared, for it is very dark, and

"Are they all up?" goes down the line.
The reply comes, mo. Struggling in the

Halt and keep low!"
Again goes the word, Are they all up?'
Eyes, all up" and the procession proceeds.
Now it is necessary to strike the road again.
1t is shell-swept, but the only way of approach.
Sandbag barriers nine feet high, very soldly
built. and with a central opening screened by
another sandbag wall, now rear up at every
two or three hundred yards Reserve trenches,

harmlessly over them. They are noyices as
yet and soon they will learn that taking
chances On their knees is better than cleaning
uniforms. A week of this will make any good
soldier fatalist. Another hundred yards.
"Hallol" the guide calls in a whisper. You

"No; who are you? You our men? What
yer got?" Some one is decidedly friendly, but
guides leading men above a parapet eighty
yards from the enemy have no time for suffer-
ing fools gladly; and what the corporal thought
but didn't say must have been very profane
indeed On again.
Halo! A."
"Yes; here we are. That you, Smithy!

Corporal in charge, bring your men in.
Give them a rest. Are they all right?"
"Yes, sir; they're all right and all up"
Twenty weary men flop hurriedly over the
side into the sludgy trench. Much profanity
proceeds from those sleeping against the para
pet-or, rather, those who were sleeping. No
one enjoys being jumped on. Too tired to
care for bullets, curses, water or even shells,
the intruders rest anyhow, anywhere, for ten
delicious minutes; then
Fatigue party, get ready; quiet as you can,
and keep low"
With no longer any load they make good
pace hating and keeping down for each star
shell. Bullets by the hundred are sweeping
over the fields, but by great good luck no one
gets hit.
Arrived back in the antechapel, twenty drip
ping figures steal over the forms Of their "un-
initiated" comrades asleep their stony beds.
Wet, but happy, they have as yet only slipped
Of the excitement of war, but the spell Of the
unknown has been broken. Too wet to sleep,
