Wood. in France, is sold by weight
The following true tale comes from
an American officer. A company of
American soldiers on the march had
"billeted" for the night in a small
country village. At marching time
next morning. a sergeant was detailed
to stay behind and see, for the benefit
of the villagers. that everything re-
mained 20 X" The sergeant finally
saw an American trooper come out of
a door and hurry to join his unit.
Hey did you put out that fire in
there ?" the sergeant yelled.

that French wood on it." All of
which was a satisfactory explanation
for the sergeant and the company re-.
sumed the march.
