ORIGIN OF "YANK" EXPLAINED
piled to American Soldiers Told
by Fenimore Cooper.

The nickname Yank, as applied to
the American soldier in France, has
something of charm in the tradition Of
the word. Persons interested in the
history Of words may have noted with
interest a footnote in Cooper's 1.-The
Deerslayer:"
1T is singular there should be any
question concerning the origin of the
well-known sobriquet of Yankee
Nearly all the old writer's who spoke
of the Indians first known to the col
onists make them pronounce the
word English as 'Yengeese Even at
this day it is a provincialism of New
England to say English instead of
Inglish,' and there is close conform
fly of sound between the English and
Yengeese,' more especially if the lat
ter word, as was probably the case, he
pronounced short.
1.-THE transition from 'Yengeese,'
thus pronounced, to 'YangeeSe, is
quite easy. Ii the former is pro-
nounced 'Yangis,' it is almost identical
with Yankees and Indian words have
seldom been spelt as they are pro
nounced. The liquids Of the
Indian would easily convert En- into
YEN"

HOW AMERICAN TROOPS
FOUGHT OFF HUNS
IN TRENCHES IN FRANCE.
The American troops used
what is sometimes known as the
new French system ef defense,
and sometimes as the new Ger
man system. At the beginning
of the war the front trenches
were held very thick" espe-
cially by the British. Later the
idea was TO have only a hand
ful of men in Tire first line, one
man TO hundred feet. perhaps;
for the second line there were
many more men and many more
machine guns; for the third line
men were much more heavily
massed and reserves kept avail
able, .4ucian Swift Kirkland
writes in Leslie's.
This theory of defense against
raids was based on the fact that
the enemy can concentrate his
men in his front lines for sud
den lover the top''--then lay
down a heavy barrage. When
the attacking troops come over
they strike the first line with
their maximum impact. They
are likely to overwhelm any or
binary defense, and thus it is a
waste az men to try TO defend
the drst line obstinately. But
the human body gets tired and
when the machine guns and
rifles of the second line have
had their innings at the attack
ers the enemy Is beginning to
slow up from natural ex-
haustion. On q counter-attack,
then, the third line, being fresh,
meets the enemy tired from ex-
ertion and proceeds to drive him
out.
Thus, as we waded through
the mud. sometimes well over
our knees as we visited some OF
the half-demolished lines which
the Germans had tried to fat
ten with their artillery in their
last raid. we did not find much
society, but the snipers, whom
we did find at their posts, seem
ed to have been born to the
job. They were men who knew
their rifles, and it was a state
ment of fact and not Boosting
when they declared that they
had the German sharpshooters
buffalOed. We came upon one
lanky ex-cowpuncher who had
been having a four-hour duel
with a "bush," as he called him.
He didn't know ! was taking his
picture, but just as the camera
clicked so also did the hammer
of his gun. This time Mr.. Ger
man had taken one too many
chances. The fact was proved
through the periscope.
