tors, sisters, and nurses in the English
hospitals, are angels on earth. 1 love
them all and can never repay the care
and kindness shown to me. For the
rest Of my life the Red Cross will be
to me the symbol of Faith, Hope and
Charity.
After four months in the hospital I
went before an examining board and
was discharged from the service of his
Britannia majesty as physically unfit
for further war service"
After my discharge l engaged pass
age on the American liner New York,
and after stormy trip across the At
lantic one momentous day, in the haze
of early dawn, saw the statue of lib
erty looming over the port rail, and I
wondered If ever again l would go
cover the top with the best of luck
and give them hell"
And even then, though 1t may seem
strange, l was really sorry not to be
back in the trenches with my mates.
War is not a pink tea, but in a worth
while cause like ours, mud, rats, COO
ties, shells, wounds or death itself, are
far Outweighed by the deep sense Of
satisfaction felt by the man who does
his bit.
There is one thing which my ex-
perience taught me that might help the
boy who may have to go. 1t is this
anticipation is far worse than realiza-
ton. In civil life man stands in awe
of the man above him, wonders how he
could ever fill his job. When the time
comes he rises to the occasion, Is up
and at it, and is surprised to find how
much more easily than he anticipated
he fills his responsibilities. 1t is really
so "out there"
He has nerve for the hardships; the
interest of the work grips him. he finds
relief in the fun and comradeshlp Of
the trenches and wins that best sort Of
happiness that comes with duty well
done.

surgery and a marvellous success.
From now on that doctor can have my
shirt.
More than once some poor soldier
has been brought into the ward in a
dying condition, resulting from loss of
blood and exhaustion caused by his
long journey from the trenches. After
an examination the doctor announces
that the only thing that will save him
is a TRANSMISSION of blood. Where is
the blood to come from? He does not
have to wait long for an answer-sev-
eral TommieS Immediately volunteer
their blood for their mate. Three or
four are accepted; blood test Is
made, and next day the TRANSMISSION
takes place and there is another pale
face In the ward.
Whenever bone is needed for some
special operation, there are always
men willing to give some-a leg If
necessary to save some mangled mate
from being crippled for life. More
than one man will go through life with
another mans blood running through
his veins, or piece Of his rib or his
shinbone in his own anatomy. Some
times he never even knows the name Of
his benefactor.
The spirit Of sacrifice is wonderful.
For all the suffering caused this war
is blessing to England-it has made
new men of her sons; has welded all
classes into one glorious whole.
And l can't help saying that the doc,

that q shell would hit us and end our
misery. Personally, l was not partlcu-
lar. 1t was nothing but bump, jolt, rat
tie, and bang
Several times the driver would turn
around and give US "CheerO, mates,
We'll soon be there" fine fellows,
those ambulance drivers, a lot Of them
go West, too.
We gradually drew out Of the fire
zone and pulled up in front of an i'm
mense dugout. Stretcher-bearers car
ried me down q number of steps and
placed me on white table in brightly
lighted room.
A sergeant Of the Royal Army Med
ical corps removed my bandages and
cut off my tunic. Then the doctor,
with his sleeves rolled up, took charge.
He winked at me and winked back,
and then he asked, allow do you feel
smashed up bit?'
l answered: I'm all right, but I'd
give quid for a drink of Bass"
He nodded to the sergeant, who dis
appeared, and I'll be darned If he
didn't return with a glass Of ale. l
could only open my mouth about
quarter Of an inch, but got away with
every drop of that ale. 1t tasted just
like Blighty, and that is heaven to
Tommy.
The doctor said something to an or
derby, the only word could catch was
''chloroform," then they put some kind
of an arrangement over my nose and
mouth and it was me FOR dreamland.
When / opened my eyes was lying
on a stretcher, in low wooden
building. Everywhere I looked saw
rows of Tommies on stretchers, some
dead to the world, and the rest with
Tags in their mouths.
The main topic Of their conversation
was Blighty. Nearly all had grin on
their faces, except those who didn't
have enough face left to grin with. i
grlnned with my right eye, the other
was bandaged.
Stretcher-bearers came in and be-
gan to carry the Tommies outside. You
could hear the chug of the engines In
the waiting ambulances.
l was put into an ambulance with
three others and away we went for an
eighteen-mile ride.
l was on a bottom str@tcher. The
lad right across from me was smashed
up something horrible.
Right above me was man from the
Royal Irish rifles, while across from
him was Scotchman.
We had gone about three miles when
I heard the de@h-rattle in the throat
of the man opposite. He had gone to
rest across the Great Divide. / think
at the time l epvled him.
The man of the Royal Irish rifles
had had his left foot blown off, the
jolting of the ambulance over the
rough road had loosened up the band
ages on his foot, and had started 1t
bleeding again. This blood ran down
the side of the stretcher and started
dripping. I was lying on my back, too
weak to move, and the dripping Of this
blood got me in my unbandaged right
eye. I closed my eye and pretty soon
could not open the lid; the blood had
CONCEALED and closed 1t, as If 1t were
glued down.

Double Sugar Portions
Served at Restaurants

People who eat their meals at
hotels and restaurants will be
pleased to learn that the food adj
ministration has increased their SUI
gar allowance. In fact, the sugar al
lowance has been doubled. The an
nouncement of the increase in the
sugar allowance came through Food
Administrator Wattles and by Harry
L. Keen, chairman of the hotel and
restaurant committee, is being sent
broadcast through the state.
Formerly persons eating at hotels
and restaurants were allowed one
teaspoonful of sugar each for tea,
or coffee. From this date the al
lowance is one-half ounce and is
equivalent to about two teaspoons
of sugar. Under the new ruling a
portion of the sugar may be used
for sweetening tea, or coffee, or it
may be used on cereals, or fruit.
Previously if patrons of the eating
houses tooktheir sugar for tea, or
coffee they were not permitted to
use it for any other purpose.

MUNY COAL YARD
T0BEPROBEDAT
MONDAY MEETING
Commissioner Ure Contends
Yard Is Not Necessary Un-
der the Governments
Regulations.

The municipal coal situation is to
be thrashed out at a public meeting
in the city council chamber Monday
evening at s o'clock. The coal deal
ers will be there and Commissioner
Butler looks for a-big delegation to
attend and defend the coal yard.
Commissioner IRE, who holds
that the muny coal yard is a super
huous and useless institution at
present, points out that there is no
such thing in existence as a "mu-
licipal coal yard"
They have no yard" he says,
but unload their cars on the street
crossings. Moreover at the present
time, when the government is ap-
pealing to all dealers in coal to store
great quantities during the summer
the city coal enterprise has done
nothing of the sort. They simply
sell coal as it is received, right from
the car.
Il know very we'll that it is not
the popular thing to oppose the
muny coal. The people may misin-
terpret my views, but | am ready to
suffer if necessary because my whole
object is to get the people the most
for their money and to obey the
government coal regulations. The
price of coal now is regulated by
the government which sees to It that
a ton of coal Of a specified kind is
sold at a just price no matter to
whom it ISIS old. If person re-
ceives coal which he doesn't con-
slider up to specified standard orfull
weight, he simply appeals to the
coal administrator who will investi
gate the charge. The people are
fully protected and guaranteed full
moneys worth no matter from
whom they buy coal
