WE HAVE MANY TIMES ASKED
THE SAME QUESTION:.

Northwest Progress, Seattle, Wash.)
Why Not Friday Meatless?
Upon the recommendation of the
food administrator, Tuesday has been
designated as "meatless day" by
the hotel and restaurant men of the
state and it's observance is to be urged
upon the people generally. This selec-
ton of Tuesday instead of Friday for
''meatless day" is palpable error
which should be corrected.
A large percentage of the people of
meatless day, and this fact should have
been considered in selecting the day
of abstinence. 1t may be urged that
by designating Tuesday meatless day
greater amount of meat will be saw
ed because then some of our people,
the Catholics, will observe two meat
less days.
The impolicy and injustice of this
argument is patent to all save those
who, lacking the means of more salts
flying mischief would maliciously in
flict an added burden upon their Cath
Ollie fellow citizens.
Catholics will bear their part of the
burdens imposed for the good of our
country without murmur or protest,
but this willingness to bear their part
should not pave the way for unjust
impositions or unnecessary hardships.
Abstinence from meat on one day a
week will in no way impair the health
of normal persons. In this sense alb
staining from meat on one day each
week can hardly be said to be hard
ship. But the inconvenience conse-
quent to securing substitute may be
, a decided hardship to many families.
Increase the meatless days to two or
three days a week and the inconven-
fence and privation become material
elements to be reckoned with, and
the imposition of an extra. day of pri.
walton upon portion of our people, is
not only unjust but becomes manifest
ly burdensome.
| Our method of food conservation
as suggested by national authorities
should accomplish the elimination of
waste rather than the levying Of pri-
vations. AS yet, and God spare the
day, we are not reduced to the ex
tremity of preserving our food supply
regardless of resulting burdens. Pru
dent policy suggests that we save the
greatest amount of food with the least
amount of privation, and justice re.
quires that the burdens be equally
distributed among all our people.

A REMEMBRANCE ON leaving
IRELAND.

SonC Oh VlSlC 10 Ireland Ills TWO
sisters asked him to name some SOU
venir of his native home that he could
carry away with him and keep him
thinking of them and their home.
Here's his answer:
A remembrance you'd give me of Ire
land,
A token from hearts that are true,
That might foster my love of my sire
land,
Keep me thinking, my sisters, of you.
Then go pluck me the bloom of the
heather, -,
. Where the bees gather honey all day,
Where the heath-cock feeds and the
fleet hare breeds,
It's fragrance will sweeten my way.

And my frame will grow youthful

Give with it the call of the cuckoo
The bright phwhelauns* that float
in the sun,
The whistling plover, and the game in
clover,
The grouse-cock growing as the day
is done.
Cannot"
Give the buried hues of your wild
flowers,
When spring time decks out our
green vale,
When the daisies laugh bright in the
meadows
And perfumes are flung on each gale
Gives the blushing rich red on your
roses
My boyhood's young days to recall
And Ill~stroll again, on the sward SO
green,
And shadows no longer will pail.
Cannot"
Give me soft clarion lays of your
blackbird,
The rapturous call of your thrush,
The ecstatic wild joys of your sky
lark
AS they sing to the mornings first
flush.
The flute and the lutte and the harp
string,
And the strains that are sweet to
the ear.
But your song-bird's glee, holds that
charm for me
That makes native soil more dear.
Cannot"
Rather give me the joys of your chill
dren
That spring from an innocent heart.
And light the young face with laughter.
1t beggars all efforts of art;
1t is Gods choicest gift to old Erin,
He gave it to tighten her woes.
It draws Angels near and drives evil
far,~
1t will tighten my days till their
close.

Give the memories so dear to the Sog-

Where Christ came to feast with His
children

the men. I'm not trying to make my
self out a hero. I'm just trying to tell
you how an ordinary mans mind
works under the stress Of fighting and
the danger of sudden death. There
are some queer things in the psychol-
ogy Of battle. For instance, when we
had got into the German trench and
were holding 1t against the most
vigorous counterattacks the thought
which was persistently uppermost in
my mind was that i had lost the ad-
dress Of a girl In London along with
some papers which I had thrown away
Just before we started over and which
should certainly never be able to find
again.
Hold Regina Trench at Last.
The Regina trench had been taken
and lost three times by the British.
We took 1t that day and held it. We
went into action with 1900 men of all
ranks and came out with 600.
have said that because we were on
the extreme right Of the fine we had
the hottest little spot in France to
hold for awhile. You see, we had to
institute double defensive, as we
had the Germans on our front and on
our flank, the whole length of the
trench to the right Of us being still
held by the Germans. There we had
to form ''block," masslng our bomb
ers behind barricade which was only
fifteen yards from the barricade be-
hind which the Germans were fighting.
Our flank and the German flank were
In contact as fiery as that Of two live
wire ends. And meanwhile the Fritzes
tried to rush us on our front with nine
separate counterattacks. Only one Of
them got up close to u.s. and we went
out and stopped that with the bayonet.
Behind our block barrlcade there was
the nearest approach to an actual fight
ing hell that had seen.
And yet man who was In the midst
Of it from beginning to end came out
without scratch. He was a tall chap
named Hunter. For twenty-four hours,
without interruption, he threw German
"eggshell" bombs from a position at
the center Of our barricade. he never
stopped except to light cigarette or
yell for some one to bring him more
bombs from Frltz's captured store
house. he projected regular curtain
Of fire Of his own. I've no doubt the
Germans reported he was couple Of
platoons, working In alternate reliefs.
He was awarded the D. G. M. for his
services In that fight, and, though, as
I said, he was unwounded, half the
men around him were killed, and his
nerves finished In such condition that
he had to be sent back to England.
The Big eIunder and What Il Cost.
One Of the great tragedies Of the war
resulted from a bit of carelessness
when couple Of days later the effort
was made to extend our grip beyond
the spot which we took In that first
fight. Plans had been made for the
Forty-fourth battalion Of the Tenth
Canadian brigade to take by assault
the trench section extending to the
right from the point where we had es-
tablished the "block" on our flank. The
hour for the attack had been fixed.
Then headquarters sent out counter
handing order. Something wasn't
quite ready.

0UR high command apparently
meant to make q sure thing Of
the general assault upon the Re-
gina trench, in which we were to par
ticipate. Three times the order to 'go
over the top was countermanded. The
assault was first planned for Oct. 10.
Then the date was changed to the Goth.
Finally, at 12 10 noon of Oct p, we
went. It was the first general assault
we had taken part in, and we were In
highly nervous state. I'll admit
that.
Il seemed almost certain death to
start over In broad daylight, yet, as
It turned out, the crossing Of No Mans
Land was accomplished rather more
easily than in our night raids. Our
battalion was on the extreme right Of
the line, and that added materially to
our difficulties, first by compelling us
to advance through mud 80 deep that

was in charge Of the second
'wave," or assault line. This Is called
the '.mopping up" wave, because the
business Of the men composing it is
thoroughly to bomb out position
crossed by the first wave. to capture
or kill all of the enemy remaining and
to put the trench In q condition to be
defended against q counterattack by
reversing the fire steps and throwing
up parapets.
Our artillery had given the Germans
such battering and the curtain fire
which our guns dropped just thirty to
forty yards ahead of us was SO pow
erful that we lost comparatively few
men going over-only those who We're
knocked down by shells which the Ger
mans landed among us through our
barrage. They never caught us with
their machine gun sweeping until we
neared their trenches. Then good
many Of our men began to drop, but
we were In their front trench before
they could cut us up anywhere near
completely. Going over I was struck
by shell fragments on the hand and
leg, but the wounds were not severe
enough to stop me. In fact, I did not
know that I had been wounded until
