The ''75's" fired 30 shots minute
where the best the German guns could
do was six. The American three-inch
field piece lets go six times minute,
too. The French government owns the
secret of the mechanism that made
this rapid fire possible. When the first
75's" began to roar, the Germans
knew the French had found new
weapon, SO they were very anxious to
get one of the guns and learn the
secret. 49,
Shortly afterward they captured
eight guns by mass attack In which,
the allies claim, there were 1900 Ger,
man troops killed. The Boches studied
the guns and tried to turn out pieces
like them at the Krupp factory. But
somehow they could not get it. Their
imitation "75's" would only fire five
shots very rapidly and then Cough
puff, puff, puff. with nothing coming
out. The destructive power of the
"75's" is enormous. These guns have
saved the lives of thousands of poilus
and Tommies and it is largely due to
them that the French are now able to

would know so much about 1t, but fol-
lowed him. Inside the house was
passageway under the ruins. It was
about seven feet wide and fifty feet
long. I should judge.
At the other end was the great old
''75," poking its nose out of q hole in
the wall. The gun captain and the
crew were sitting around waiting the
word for action, and they seemed to
know Brown well. I was surprised at
that, but still more SO when he told
me could examine the gun If I
wanted to, just as IL he owned 1t.
So / sat In the seat and trained the
cross wires on IN object, opened and
closed the breech and examined the

Then Brown said: sWell, Chink,
ycn'il see some real gunnery now" and
they passed the word and took sta
lions. My eyes bulged out when I
saw Brown take his station with them!
"Silence!" is about the first COM
mand Il gun crew gets when 1t is going
into action, but forgot all about 1t,
and shouted out and asked Brown how
he got to be gunner. But he only
grinned and looked dopey. as usual.
Then came to and expected to get a

going up for their regular stunt in the
front lines, while the others had just

So had to ease along as best could
for what seemed like hours-to my
feet-until we turned of onto another
road and halted for a rest. I found
out later that our officers had gone
astray and were lost at this time,
though, of course, they did not tell
US so.
We arrived at our section Of the
trench about three o'clock that after
noon and rejoined my company. I
was all tired out after this trek and
found myself longing for the Cassard
and the rolling wave. where no Mara
thons and five-mile hikes were neces-
sary. But this was not in store for
me-yet.

ard visit but otherwise nothing dis
;urbed our routine unless 1t was q gas
attack.
The ambition of most privates is to
become sniper, as the official sharp
shooters are called. After a private
has been in the trenches for six
months or year and has shown his
craftsmanship, he becomes the great
man he has dreamed about. We had
two snipers to each company and be-
cause they took more chances with
their lives than the ordinary privates
they were allowed more privileges.
When it was at all possible our snipers
were allowed dry quarters, the best of
food, and they did not have to follow
the usual routine, but came and went
as they pleased.
Our snipers, as rule, went over
the parapet about dusk, just before
Fritz got his star shells going. They
would crawl out to shell craters or
tree stumps or holes that they had
spotted during the day-in other
words. places where they could see
the enemy parapets but could not be
seen themselves. Once in position.
they would make themselves comfort
able, smear their tin hats with dirt,
get good rest for their rifles and
snipe every German they saw. They
wore extra bandoleers Of cartridges,
since there was no telling how many
rounds they might fire during the
night. Sometimes they had direct and
visible targets and other times they
potted Huns by guesswork. Usually

CHAPTER v.
With the 1885,

WIN SUS Tvs
My pal Brown, of whom spoke be-
fore, had been put in the infantry
when he enlisted in the Legion, be-
cause he had served in the United
States infantry. He socn became
sergeant, which had been his rating
In the American service. I never saw
him in the trenches, because our out
fits were nowhere near each other, but
whenever we were In billets at the
same time. we were together as much
as possible.
Brown was funny card and I never
saw anyone else much like him. A
big. tall, red-headed. dopey-looking fell
low. never saying much and slow in
everything he did or said-you would
never think he amounted to much or
was worth his salt. The boys used to
call him "Ginger" Brown, both on ac-
count of his red hair and his slow
movements. But he would pull sur
prise on you every once in a while,
like this one that he fooled me with.
One morning about dawn we started
out for a walk through what used to
be Dixmude-piles of stone and brick
and mortar. There were no civvies to
be seen; only mules and horses bring
ing up casks of water, bags of beans.
chloride of lime, barbed wire, ammu-
milton. etc. It was good thing we
were not superstitious. At that, the
shadows along the walls made me feel
shaky sometimes.
Finally Brown said: "Come on
down; let's see the U.s." At this
time had not seen "75," except on
a train going to the front, so l took
him up right away, but was surprised
that he should know where they were.
After going half way around Dix
nude Brown said, "Here we are" and
started right into what was left of n

along that line. There is a tip that

There is another thing about the
French women that have noticed. and
that is this: There are pretty girls in
every country under the sun, but the
plain girls in France are prettier than
the plain ones in other countries. They
might not show it in photographs. but
In action there is something about
them that you cannot explain. I have
never seen an ugly French girl who
was not easy to look at.
We finally got to Dixmude, after
having spent about eighteen hours on
the way. On our arrival one company
was sent to the reserve trenches and
my company went to the front line

they crawled back just before day
light, but sometimes they were out "a
hours at stretch. They took great
pride in the number of Germans they
knocked over, and If our men did not
get eight or ten they thought they had
not done good nights work. OF
course it was not wholesale killing,
like machine cunning, but 1t was very
useful, because our snipers were al
ways laying for the German snipers,
and when they got SHIPPER Fritz they
saved just so many of our lives.
The Limeys have a great little ex-
preston that means a lot: Garry on"
They say it is q cockney expression.
When captain falls in action, his
words are not message to the girl
he left behind him or any dope about
his gray-haired mother, but "Carry on,
Lieutenant Whosis." If the lieutenant
gets his it is "Cary on, Sergeant
Jacks" and SO on as far as it goes.
So the words used to mean, take
over the command and do the Job
right" But now they mean not only
that but Keep up your courage, and
60 to it." One man will say it to
another sometimes when he thinks the
first man is getting downhearted, but
more often, If he is Limey, he will
start kidding him.
Our men, of course, did not say
"Carry on" and in fact they did not
have any expression in French that
meant exactly the same thing. But
they used to cheer each other along,
all right, and they passed along the
command when it was necessary, too.
I wonder what expression the Ameri-
can troops will use. (You notice I
do not call them Sammies y
I took my turn at listening post with
the rest of them, of course. A listen
ing post is any good position .out in
No Mans Land. and is always held BY
two men. Their job is to keep a live
ear on Fritz and in case they hear any
thing that sounds very much like an
attack one man runs back to his lines
and the other stays to hold back the
Boches as long as he can. You can
figure for yourself which Is the most
healthful job.
AS many times as I went on listen
ing-pest duty never did get to feel
ing homelike there exactly. You have
to lie very still, of course, as Fritz is
listening, too, and move may mean

at the post very long. I used to brag
a lot about how fast could run, So
had my turn as the runner, which
suited me all right. But every time
l got to listening post and started
to think about what I would do IL
Fritz should come over and wondered
how good q runner he was, took a
long breath and said, 'Feet, do your
duty" And was strong on duty.
