SYSTEMATIC SAVING URGED
People Requested to Pledge by June

Washington, D. C.-To save mate

poses, President Wilson appealed to
Americans "to buy only those things
which are essential to the indlvlduai
health and efficiency" and TO volun-
teer on or before June %. National

'"The great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the participa-

"lnto the Trench"

The next morning the draft was in
spected by our general, and we were
assigned to different companies. The
boys in the brigade had nicknamed
this general Old Pepper, and he cer-
tainly earned the sobriquet. I was as
signed to B company with another
American named Stewart.
For the next ten days we "rested,"
repairing roads for the Trenches, drill
ing, and digging bombing trenches.
One morning we were Informed that
we were going up the line, and our
march began.
It took us three days to reach re-
serve billets-each days march bring
ing the sound of the guns nearer and
nearer. At night, way off in the dis.
tance we could see their flashes, which
lighted up the sky with red glare.
Against the horizon we could see
numerous observation balloons or "sau-
sages" as they are called.
On the afternoon of the third days
march / witnessed my first airplane
being shelled. A thrill ran through me
and gazed in awe. The airplane was
making wide circles in the air, while
little puffs of white smoke were burst
ing all around it. These puffs appeared
like tiny balls Of cotton while after
each burst could be heard dull
"plop." The sergeant of my platoon

seemed like little black speck in the

whether it was English, French or Ger

ther Informed us that the allied anti
aircraft shells when exploding emitted
white smoke while the German shells
gave forth black smoke, and, as he ex-
pressed it, 1T must be an Allemand be-
cause our pom-poms are shelling, and

emerged a fairly united n still Wig
