MEETING OF COMMANDERS

Six voices answer the greeting and six hands are offered. A thousand ques- tions and jokes are passing. All are good friends, glad of the opportunity to meet again on solid ground Their appearance differs greatly, but all have determined energetic faces, the sharp and steel-like expressions in their eyes, men, to whom the word impossible is not known who look into deaths face hundreds of times and laugh.
 In the center of the room is a large green table covered with maps, plans and drafting instruments. More comforta ble it is in the lounge, however. Soldiers are serving tea with a little rum" The com mander in chief has not yet made his Appearance. The eight of us are sitting together most peacefully and we talk about most everything but our profession, which is too serious to be discussed at tea" Also more harmless jokes are ex- changed. The youngest with his left arm in bandages seems to be the center 5f the banter.
 Well, Roechling. were the little girls in Hamburg mighty curious about those bandages?"
 This question is quickly followed by an other
 And what did little cousin say?"
 By thunder, Hoermann." the jolly liar tg calls from his corner Please close the door,
 No there's too much smoke in this room"
 Better warm smoke than cold ozone"
 And to the rest of us:
 Now let Roechling have peace. It is cruel to joke about the mans most inti- mate feelings"
 By chance he is glancing toward the comrade in whose defense he had spoken and, in surprise, he remarks:
 Why. man, you are blushing!"
 md r11Itc ha, ar, hi ean dat-
 Now confess-what is the trouble?"
 Roechling. who has mastered his em- barrassment, smiles and says:
 Well, I may as well tell you. I have become engaged The commander in chief has been informed In the next few days there will be a war wedding
 Immediately all our joking has ceased, and our congratulations offered to Roech- ling come from the honest hearts of his friends.
 By thunder, you are a fine one to have kept it secret so long. How did it happen? And you intend to get mar ried so soon?'
 And while the happy one relates his romance his comrade, Woerberg, over there in the corner sings without paus- ing.
 'Schum .... Schuum .... Sehuuum .... ..."
 'The commander in chiefr'
 Suddenly all joking ceases and serious faces greet the arrival
 With handshakes the commander in chief, followed by his adjutant, salutes his officers.
