Suicide Annex.

I was in my first dugout and looked
around curiously. Over the door Of
same was a little sign reading "Sui-
eide Annex" One Of the boys told
me that this particular front trench
was called "Suicide Ditch" Later on
I learned that machine gunners and
bombers are known as the Suicide
Club"
That dugout was muddy. The men
slept in mud, washed in mud, ate mud
and dreamed mud. I had never before
realized that so much discomfort and
misery could be contained in those
three little letters, NJ q D. The floor
Of the dugout was an inch deep In
water. Outside 1t was raining cats and
dogs, and thin rivulets were trickling
down the steps. From the air shaft
Immediately above me came a drip,
drip, drip. Suicide Annex was hole
eight feet wide, ten feet long and SIX
feet high It was about twenty feet
below the fire trench; at least there
were twenty steps leading down to 1t.
These steps were cut into the earth,
but at that time were muddy and slip
perry. A man had 10 be very careful
or else he would "shoot the chutes."
The air was foul, and you could cut
the smoke from Tommy's Tags with a
knife. It was cold. The walls and
roof were supported with heavy square
cut timbers. while the entrance was
strengthened with sandbagS Nails had
been driven into these timberS. On
each nail hung a miscellaneous assort-
ment Of equipment. The lighting az
rangcmcnts were superb---one candle

ton tin My teeth were chattering
from the cold, and the drip from the
airshaft did not help matters much.
While I was sitting bemoaning my
fate and wishing for the f1reside at
home, the fellow next to me, who was
writing letter, looked up and limo
Gently asked, "Say, Yanf, how do you

I looked at him in contempt and an

From the darkness in one Of the cor

one Of the popular trench ditties en-
titled:
Pack up your Troubles in your Old Kit
Bag, and Smile, Smile, Smile"
Every now and then the singer
would stop to cough, cough, cough, but
it was a good illustration Of Tommy's
cheerfulness under such conditions.

We had gotten halfway through the

I was losing my first friend Of the

Word was passed to the rear for a

We left Pete there, but it broke our
hearts to do so. The doctor informed
US that we could bury him the next
morning. That afternoon five Of the
boys of our section, myself included,
went to the little ruined village in the
rear and from the deserted gardens Of
the French chateaux gathered grass
and flowers. From these we made a

While the boys were making this

To get to the cemetery, we had to
