Colonel cleverly Concealed.

We found the coionerS dugout clev-
crly concealed by trees and bushes,
but near it also there were fresh
shell holes. Inside. in n long. narrow
chamber sat the colonel at his telc-
phone. and at other telephones his
Intelligence officer and his artillery
liaison officer. The walls were deco
rated with odd little pictures taken
from the deserted houses of the viii
lage and there were hunks made OF
packing cases. An alarm clock made
n Connecticut showed that it lacked
ten minutes to zero hour. which was s
O'Clock. Outside our guns were bang
Ing and their shells went whooshing
over our heads on their way to Vaux.
The colonel a short, neat looking
officer for all his three weeks spent in
the front line, smiled at US over his
glasses and told us to find seats.
Somewhere back his people came from

struck one how coolly impersonal
the thing sounded. A taste of fight

about this war.
The telephone bell rang and the
colonel listened a moment. Then he

The Connecticut alarm clock showed
that it was one minute of six, and the
