story OF Little Child Found by the
European Fighters.

A dispatch sent out from London
says:
Phyllis Trenches, a bright. blue

ciral figure in perhaps che most rO-
mantle little story Of the big war.
Phyllis is the adopted pride and

Her given name was derived from one
Private Phillip Impcy, who picked her
out OF a ditch in IN isolated and un-
romantic part OF northern France
while the BedfOrdshirCs were march,
ing by. "Trcnchcs" is the only ap-
propriatc surname for Phyllis because
Phyllis lived with her soldier foster
parents in cold and clammny trench
on the firing line for eight long days.
When and how this four-year old
happened to be in ditch, wet and
weak from cold, as Private lmpey'S
company WAS passing toward the first
le'" trenches, probably never will be
explained. 1t was lmpcy, however,
who stepped out OF line to gather the
child up in his arms. Impey was told
by an officer a moment later that he
would either have to lcave the little
girl or take her along. So Phyllis
went to the trenches. Within three
days she had recovered from expos

dcncc that more than one khaki uni
form had lost its shape in favor Of the
Daughter OF the Regiment. The best
and safest dugout and the Softest
trench bed were Phyllis's and there
wasn't 4 soldier who wouldn't have
cut off a log to make her happy.
The German trenches were $50
yards away. One day Phyllis was
missing. Shouts from the enemy's
trenches helped to find her. She was
boldly toddling in "No Mans Land"
toward the German lines. The Ger
mans were beckoning her on A hun
drcd Bcdfordshircs were ready in an
instant to risk their lives for Phyllis.
Two. who were quicker than the rest,
ran forward and got her and not
shot was fired. After that Phyllis
vantured over the parapet several
times. No German offered to harm
her and there was an understood
truce when the child appeared.
Eight days Of trench duty for the
Bedfordshires finally ended. Phillip
lmpey died from a bullet wound Oh
the seventh day and the company

came father to Phyllis. She was

along. She was soon the pet Of the
