OTIS Of Paper.

On dusty French roadside near the
front, line of empty trucks was
halted at various rakish angles, their
wheels caked with mud. The drivers
snored in the seats or lay stretched
out in the wheat field alongside. Every
thing was still save for the distant
boom Of the guns and finally the rata
tat-tat. not of a masked machine gun,
but of an unseen typewriter.
A passer-by trailed the sound to the
interior of one of the trucks, and with
in saw a soldier sitting in the throes
of composition, his bandaged foot rest
ing on sack Of oats.
"You poor stiff, do they make you do
paper work way up here?'

fably. I'm writing letter to my

Good men can easily see through

the good man that the bad man can't
see through him.
