 There Was no question about our superiority there.

 I was in command of the squad With the blood curdling name of the Suicide club As a club I believe it holds the world record of being the most efficient and the speediest in ad- min1sterlng to it's members and to others the knock-ou drop. But the name in a way really bellies it's true character, for all the men of my bombing section were the best be- haved and most inoffensive beings inn aglnable. In fact, they earned for themselves the names of "WalIer's Lambs''
 Unfortunately, our work was not limited to bombing. A large amount of the responsibility of keeping our barb wire in condition was laid to our door, and in this work many of our best and worst experiences came
 The lghts from vary pistol, largely composed of magnesium and tuned to burst when shot forty yards up, spread a wonderfully soft brill fancy over to No Mans Land which rivals New York's Fifth Avenue. This is particularly true if there is no moon or the night is cloudy. Tn our reconnaissance work we proceeded in triangular formation with about twenty to thirty feet between men, travelling for the most part after the fashion of 9 snake, stopping to listen every few yards for the sound O an enemy patrol.
 The first thing a man learns is the wisdom of taking cover when haldng. This necessity daWns on the man of average intelligence the first time out. He finds the enemy have all kinds of ammunition to waste even on suspicious and the way they treat perfectly inoffensive corpses at times is a crime. They discovered we acted like corpses when the lights were turned on to our disadvantage; but the simmest kind of shell hole makes excellent cover. They themselves have never gotten over the idea that when startled the best thing to do is to beat it. Usually when bomb explodes near them they jump into a half standing position and make a perfectly clear target for the next bomb. While the nearer bomb lights to our men the harder they try to get their bodies below ground

 We had three objectives covering the gain of mile. The plan of at- tack was not a matter of chance, but was developed after serious considera- ton and patient practice, with the result that every man knew his ob- jective and the part he was to play in tho taking of 1t.
 Shortly after midday wa went into the attack The men leaped upon tho parapet and waited the signal there in the caserness and spirit of aggression which possessed them, in stead of waiting in the trenches for word to so forward.
 Tn the first Hun trench few, if any, prisoners wero taken and mono of the enemy. got away. In tho second trench prisoners, amounting to more than OUT total number of casualties. were captured without difficulty
 On the faces of sonse of those Huns fear was expressed to the point of anguish. They threw away their equipment Some threw away every
 
 and came out to see if we were going to take them prisoners. When they found we did so they would run back to get the rest of their friends to hurry up. Sometimes they would fall on their knees and catch our men around the legs, showing the most ahiCct surrender. We could not un- dcrstand all they said, but there was no question as to what they were thinking.
 Winged Five Out of Seven.
 Just at the time the prisoners were coming out thic<est got hit. Strings of prisoners passed me going out in charge of a corporal and a couple of the men. Our orders were that the prisoners were to be used for the purpose of assisting our stretcher bearers and taking care of the wounded, which they did readily and efficiently
 Charlie Gordon, a friend of mine, threw a bomb into & dugout where there were seven Huns. He told me that only two of them were able to come out when he got through with them. He himself was wounded and he made hose two carry him back. They took him to an enemy dugout which was now in our possession, stopped the bleeding of his wounds and supplied him with food from their own rations.
 The third enemy trench was found to be almost deserted. The machine gum crews put up a fight in a few places, but 1t is now conceded that we were practically through the enemy lines that day if we had only known It.
 From where was hit I had a box seat for the rest of the show. Right on the top of the rising ground I could see the towers of Bapaume in

Doctor Waite pointed out that under
present conditions the disease could
be eradicated at relatively small cost;
whereas If allowed to spread most
formidable task would be presented.

the New York Times, to battle against
the germ organisms before they get es-

seriously ill, suffering with severe
case of pneumonia. Mr.. Bamford left
