It was awful to see the men when we got back to the barracks. Some of the boys from the Georgic. not much over twelve years old, were almost crazy, but even the older men were crying, many of them. It was nothing but torture ali the time. They opened all the windows and doors in the bar racks, and then We could not heat the room with our bodies. When we start ed to move around, to keep warm, they fired z few shots at us l do not know whether they hit anyone or not i; we had got so that we did not pay any attention to things like that But 1t stopped us, and we had to stand still The Huns thought we would take the rifles from the sentries and use them, too.
 l never saw a yellower bunch of people in my life. I do not mean peo- pie. I wish l could publish what really mean.
 We had stoves in the barracks. but no coal or wood to burn. There were many boxes piled up there, but they belonged to the Germans. We would have burned them if we could. but the Germans made us carry them across the road. They weighed about 15O pounds apiece, and we were so weak that it was all two men could do to budge them. And we had to carry them they would not let us roll them. We were so cold and hungry that even that exercise did not warm us.
 About 2:30 the whistle blew again. and the Huns picked out few men and took them down the road. We could not figure out why, but they came back about three o'clock. all of them with bread In their arms They were chewing away on it when they had chance. Whenever the sentries were not looking they would bite at it like fish going after q worm. Each man carried five loaves.
 When they got in the barracks the sentries made them put the bread down on the floor, and then, with their bayonets, the sentries cut each loaf once down the center lengthwise and four times across, which meant ten men to loaf about the size of an
 
 ordinary ten-cent loaf in this country now. They gave each of us a piece little larger than 6 safety-match box.
 The bread was hard and dark, and I really think they made it from trees. It had just exactly the same smell that the dirt around trees has,
 We filed past the sentries single file to get our ration of this mud, and there was no chance of getting in line twice, for we had to keep on filing until we were out in the road. and stand there in the snow to eat it. We could not go back in the barracks un- til every man had been served.
 Our meals were like this: 4 can of barley coffee in the morning; cabbage soup. so called. at noon: a tenth of loaf of bread at D. m. That was our menu day in and day out, the kaisers birthday, Lincoln's, May day, or any other time.
 This cabbage soup was great idea. We called it shadow soup, because the boys claimed they made it by hanging cabbage over barrel of water and letting the shadow fall on the water. We pretended, too. that if you found any cabbage in 1t, you could take your dish back for a second helping. But I never saw anybody get more than one dishful All it was. was just spoiled water.
 We tried to go to sleep that night. but there were so many sentries around us-and those of us who were not sick were wounded-that I do not
