by Corporal William Kysh One of the Survivors of the
1,126 Veteran Fighters Who Joined the Organization
in Canada-How "Sm" Perry Died.

At four o'clock in the morning the
word came to charge. We scrambled
over the trench and ran toward the
Germans, go yards away. They swept
us with machine guns and bored us
with hand grenades. Big Jack John
sons screamed from behind the lines
at us, and over our heads went back

We slipped and fell; rose and fell

Then the Germans gave way They
can't eat cold steel. They were piled
up in the trenches, dead and dying,
SO thick that it was untenable, and
after while we had to abandon the
place we'd won, and go back to our
own trench.
I'VE left seven or eight men behind
in the little strip of twisted mud be-
tween the trenches. And from c 10

again on March 4. We lost more men,

trenches are 'untenable' In this
charge Colonel Farquhar of our regi-

I'VE had to stay in C 10 for six
days after this. We were shelled,

rained about us and behind us, cut

and number wounded. Then we got
out and the Kings Royal Rifles re-
ieved us. From Their on until May
we went back and forth, in and out of
trenches. We mined 'em and blew
'em up; we SHIPPED little and threw
hand grenades.
And then we were ordered to
Ypres. We marched into the trenches
there without delay.
I'VE went in in rain of artillery

across from us, about 200 yards away.
We held a crescent-shaped trench, and
on May we routed the Germans, but
we had to duck back, for the fire was
too heavy and their trench was use
less for protection.
From then until May the Ger
mans shelled us. They poured tons of
lead about us. No one could leave
the trench; no one could stick his

How the Wisconsin conservation
commission has wrought a saving OF
$22 ,54453 in the last half of 1918, ana
at the same time increased the en-
cheney of the combined department IS
shown in the report filed by the COM
mission with Governor Philip.
A comparative statement showing
the expenses of the four departments
that were merged in the conservation
commission by the law of 1915, which
became effective on August / shows
that the expenses during the last half
of 1914 were $131, 711.42, while for the
same period for the year just ended
the expenses were $109, 1853, diff
ference of $22,544.53.
The report covers the entire period
from July tc December 81, although
July was under the administration or
the law as it was before the merger
was effective. The departments con-
solidated under that act were the
state fish commission, game commits
sion, game warden department, for
