eliminated artillery fire.
In these trenches when up against

had a hot time OF II. but when the Sax.
ons took over" II was u picnic: they
would yell across that they were Sax.
ons and would not FIRE. Both sides
woult sit ON the parnpet and carry on
conversation. This generally consist
ed OF Tommy telling them how much
he loved the kaiser. while the Saxons
Informed Tommy that King George
was particular friend Of theirs and
hoped that he was doing nicely.
When the Saxons were to be relieved
by Prusslnns or Bavarinns. they would
yell this Information across No Mans
Land and Tommy would Immediately
tumble Into his trench aud keep his
head down.
II an English regiment was to be re-
lleved by the wild Irish. Tommy would
tell the Saxons. nnd Immediately a vol
ley OF "Donner und Blltzensp could
be heard and II was Fritzs turn TO get

driven Into the ground midway be

1t wns his turn, Tommy would crawl
to this take and attach some London
papers to II, while at the foot he would
place tins OF bully heel, fugs. sweets
and other dcllcacies that he had re-
celved from Blightyin the ever looked,

The next night Tommy would 20 out

The donation generally consisted Of a

cigars, and occasionally little beer,
but funny thing, Tommy. never re-
turned with the beer unless II was in
side Of him. His platoon got whlff Of
his breath one night and the offending
Tommy lost his job.
One night young English sergeant
crawled to the stake and as he tried to
detach the German paper bomb ex-
ploded and mangled him horribly. Fritz
had set trap and gained another vic.

mark against him In the book of this
war. From that time on diplomatic re-
