REACHED END OF PATIENCE
Rookie Felt He Hadn't Enlisted in

Bird Tender.

A western bishop, just back from
France, where he spent some time at
the front, tells the following anec-
dote as illustrative of the fighting
spirit of the American soldier:
again and again, whenever his regi-
ment had any orders for activity, it
fell to the lot of one 'Yank' to take
charge of crate of carrier pigeons for
one of the officers. Always the same
psskete was selected for the monot-
onous, unexciting task. 1t became
standing poke in the regiment, and the
pigeon tender became more and more
disgruntled. At last, on the eve of a
battle, he again received orders to
take charge of the pigeons. He could
contain himself no longer. With an
air of absolute resolve he walked bold
ly to the tent of the commanding Off
Ger and very firmly placed the crate
of pigeons at the door. On the crate
was note:
"'Here! take your d birds-I
am going to fight"

had gathered up all the grease by this
time and, giving no answer to the last
remark, left the room.
"Fresh old guy continued "WilIie"
after the dance-'that old man."
"Not exactly fresh, but careful of his
