HERE AND THERE

Why so many dogs about Yorkville?
That question is being asked by peo-
pie who have never asked 1t before.
One gentleman who made trip from
Greenville to this place one night last
week told Here and There that he did
not remember to have seen or heard
a dog along the whole route until he
got down into York county an l then
the animals commenced running out
at his car from the roadsides, and
when he got into Yorkvillc he began
to note the animals in droves. Another
man approached Here and There On
the street Tuesday and counting half
n dozen or more CANNES within q dis
tance Of two hundred yards asked:
Cant you do something to convince
the people Of this community that the
presence Of so many dogs on the
street is the poorest advertisement
that the town could have. Why you
cannot find the like anywhere. Dogs,
dogs. dogs. Some pay taxes and some
don't; but what is the difference. Are
people to be compelled to walk around
dogs on the sidewalk because some
body pays two dollars q year or such
a matter license" Then another said:
Food is getting scarce enough for
people without feeding 1t to those USE
less dogs This food would be worth
q good deal more II 1t should be given
to pigs. In q time like this, 1t seems
to me that we could dispense with the
dogs"
In relating the story Of his expert
ences in France, Lieutenant Baxter c.
Riddle gave quite an interesting des-
cription Of life in the dugouts in and
behind the front line trenches. He
told how for quite while his home
was in an underground cave that had
been made sometime In. the past in
limestone rock. Just what these were
intended for he did not know exactly;
but was under the impression that
probably they had been used as cham
payne cellars or possibly in connection
with cheese making; but he was not
concerned about that. What concern
ed him was that they were now being
used for military purposes, to AFFORD
security against heavy German shells.
He had more or less intimate knowl-
edge Of two Of these caves. One OF
them was his home for several weeks.
1t was quite a large underground
room, with square walls, the over
head ceiling sustained by columns that
had been left for the purpose by the
quarrymen. Inside were all manner Of
living convenienciea and comforts,
electric lights. stoves, fans, tables,
chairs, etc. The region Of these caves
had changed hands two or three times
and the Germans had been driven out
only q short time before the arrival
of the Americans to line some
twelve miles further back toward Ger
many. In this particular cave there
was room for several thousand men.
The principal discomfort Of living
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1918-05-17

\ correspondent from the Ameri-
can front in France, tells OF the fun
that an American soldier made for ms
comrades at the expense OF the Ger
mans q few days ago. 1t was a mat
ter OF much interest TO the Americans
to know whether or not certain
German trench opposite their position
was occupied; but the information was
hardly sufficiently important 10 war
rant a fcclcr raid that might result in
casualties. SO one night this week
one of the Americans, after assur-
ing the boys that he would find
out something, left the trenches with
the promise that there would soon
be something doing. and 1t was
not long before his promise was made
good. There commenced sudden
clattcr of n small bell out in No
Mans Land over near the trenches
about which the Americans were con-
ccrned, and pretty soon afterward
there followed furious fusilades OF RI
fle and machine gun fire. Then there
was silence for a brief space, after
which the bell began ringing again.
and the firing was resumed. In the
meantime the American had return
ed to his trench and explained how
hc had Slipped up near the enemy
trench in the darkness and dcposited
in a hole out OF sight and attached to
a wire so II could be hauled in, an
intermittent alarm clock. The Ger
mans were mystified at the noise.
thinking 1t was connected in som"
way with an American raid. and con-
tinued their firing for quite Will"
much To the amusement OF the Amcri-
can boys in the trenches. There Is
no longer any doubt about the fact
that the position which was previous
ly in question, is occupied.
