Hears Music of War Front.

AT Arras we heard the first music at
the war front. A couple of Scotch de-
fachments were countermarching, with
two pipers at the head Of each column
Scotties-but the High
lander had the same old step we have
so often seen. He was still a Scot.
NO bands. no flags. no 5ests among
the soldiers. One can pass a moving
column Of thousands of men and not
hear q sound save the thud, thud, thud
Of tho heels as they strike the bed of
the roadway. Miles Of loaded lorries
hurrying to the front and scurrying
back. soldiers afoot, cavalry. artillery,
ambulances dashing and screaming the
right OF way, all this and more gives
little time for anything but war.
While at the British front we were
guests at a beautiful chateau in the
northeast of France, officially known as
the American visitors chateau. Here
In its peaceful solitude-for the to-
Biography OF the country seems to dead
en- the roar Of distant guns-one's only
glimpses of war are the flashes across
the night sky.
AT vimy ridge. where the 44th Cana
dams were the stars of the battle, we
had clear view of miles Of first line
trenches. Little lines, looking for ali
the world like ribbons from our
eminence. showed where the British and
German efrst-lfne trenches were not a
hundred yards apart. Big British bat
teries speaking from sheltered banks
reminded us. Of verdun. ana, like Yer
dun. not soldier was to be seen. The
Ieeiing is, almost uncanny to look over
landscape and know q hundred thou
sand men are well within the range OF
vision, but still not a soul could be de-
eected even with powerful glasses Man
can hide more securely than the wolf.
Aeroplanes. circling like great hawks.
were marking the German lines. ana

| to the farm loan act has been intro
duced in the Senate by Senator Hollis
OF New Hampshire.
