in front of me the CHALLENGE "1o1+ -
gwen in English rang out, and one of
the finest things l have ever heard on
the western front took place.
FROM the middle of our line some
tommy answered the challenge with.
'AW, go to HI" It must have been
the man who had sneezed or who had
improperly cut the barbed wire; he
wanted to show Fritz that he could
ule game. Then came the volley. Ma
cHlne guns were turned loose and sew
eral bombs were thrown in our rear.
Inc Boche in front of me was looking
down his sight. This fellow might
nave, under ordinary circumstances.
Deen handsome, but when I viewed him
from the front of his rifle he had the
COLLINS of childhood imagination rele-
gated to the shade.
Then came flash in front of mo tho
flare of his rife-and nv head seemed

le1t side of my face about half an

Kicking my feet. I thought l was dv-
ing, but, do you know, my past life did
not unfold before me the way it does
in novels.

U-Boats Have Murdered Thousa

There is danger lest Familiarity
even with such monstrous crime as
unrestricted U-boat warfare, should
breed Indifference to it's enormitv
says an exchange. Therefore. if is
well to bear in mind thar, except when
the attack is made on fighting ships or
transports carrying fighting men. the
torpedoing of ships and sending men
to their death far out at sea, is simnlv
murder, unredeem,ed by any extenuat-
ing circumstances whatsoever. inst
how great bill Of Indictment is he-
ing drawn up by the German admiralty
against itself is seen in the statement
given by the government leader in
the house of commons, that up to Feb.
ruary, 1918, the German U-boats had
killed 14,120 ntmeombatant British
men, women and children. This, be it
noted, Is exclusive of the murders done
upon peoples Of other nationalities.

strands of the cut barbed wire on the
ground, waiting for a challenge and
the inevitable volley of rifle fire. Moth
ing happened. I suppose the fellow
who cut the barbed wire improperly
was the one who had sneezed about
half an hour previously. What we
wished him would never make his new
year happy one.
The officer, in my opinion, at the
noise of the wire should have given the
four-tap signal, which meant, ION your
own, get back to your trenches as
quickly as possible" but again he must
have relied on the spiel that Old Pep
per had given us in the dugout, per
sonally believe that that part of the
German trench is unoccupied." Any
way, we got careless, but not so care
less that we sang patriotic songs or
MADE any unnecessary noise.
During the intervals of falling star
shells we carried on with our wire cut
ting until at last we succeeded in get
ting through the German barbed wire.
AT this point we were only ten feet
from the German trenches If we were
discovered, we were like rats in a trap.
Our way was cut off unless we ran
along the wire to the narrow lane we
mad cut through. With our hearts in
our mouths we waited for the three
tap signal to rush the German trench.
1hree taps had gotten about halfway
down the line when suddenly about ten
10 twenty German star shells were
hred all along the trench and landed
IN the barbed wire in rear of u.s. turn
ing night into day and silhouetting us
against the wall of light made by the
nares. In the glazing light we were
confronted by the following unpleasant
scene.
All along the German trench. at
about three-foot intervals, stood a big
Prusslan guardsman with his rifle at
the aim, and then we found out why
we mad not been challenged when the
man sneezed and the barbed wire had
Deen Improperly cut. About three feet

EAT POTATOES SEAT EN- BY
THE CARLOAD

Not freight car, necessarily, but mo-
tor car. When you drive into the coun-
try-you who live in potato sections
bring back sack or two in your car.
Then eat them, many ways, every day,
several times day. Not an idea that
will save the country, but it will help
save the big food reserve that will so
soon begin to sprout if it isn't eaten.
Let this fact sink in deep: Unless we
increase our consumption of potatoes
markedly within the next few weeks,
says the department of agriculture,
there will be loss of much wheat
replacing food. If that happens, the
farmers may think we don't want so
many potatoes and not grow enough
this year. Americans ought not to al
low that sort of food disaster to occur.

Celebrated Fifty
eighth Wedding
Anniversary

Capt. and Mrs. S. E. Hope yester-
day celebrated their fifty-eighth we'd
ding anniversary, having had long
and happy married life.
The captain is nearly eighty-five .
years old, and was born in Liberty
county, Georgia, coming to Florida
when but three months old, living UNI
til he came to this section at Brooks
vile. He holds a good record for SER
vice in both the Indian wars and the
Civil war, having taken part in all the
big battles fought in Virginia in the
latter war. He entered the Civil war
as captain, and came out unscratched
bearing the title of colonel. Mrs. Hope
was born at White Springs, Florida,
and is seventy-two years of age.
Captain and Mrs. Hope moved to
Anclote about fifty years ago, and
are pioneers of Tarpon Springs, hav-
ing come here when the town was
first started. They are splendid
couple, both noble Christians, and are
revered by host of friends here.
They celebrated yesterday by having
at dinner all of their children, grand
children and great-grandchildren who
are in town, and afterwards some of
them took an auto ride to the beaches
around here.
The Leader extends congratulations
to Captain and Mrs. Hope, and wishes
for them yet many more years of hap
piness together.

beds. They plant trees upside down,
shock grain with the heads down, hoe
up potato vines instead of weeds, and
bruise apples and other fruit in pack
ing. They remove from carefully adj
justed machinery, misplace and omit
parts of copy in printing offices and
put foreign substances in canned
goods.

property, or who has permanent en-
ployment, or who becomes soldier or

'"They view with alarm the prepara-
ton of the country to resist its foreign
enemies, because they not only would
gladly witness the triumph of those
enemies, but also because they do not
want the country. to be prepared to
meet and stamp out the anarchy which
they intend to foment from within. All
their communications begin with the
words, Dear Comrade,' and end with
the words, Yours for the Revolution.
While our precious boys are freely
pouring their youth on the battlefield
of France, the administration is bring
ing to bear, and bravely, every order
ly process of law for the suppression
of this propaganda and the eradica-
ton of this poison. If the present
statues, intended for fairly decent peo-
pie, cannot reach these devils, then
congress, which is neither backward
nor pussyfooted, will pass laws which
will catch them"

Or, doomed afar on the deserts waste
Where the stars alone could see your

They do not make you dear to me.

campaign against |. w. w. agitators

since spreading of the doctrines of sa-
botage in the United States Russia

cesses, he said. are sufficient to catch
the agitators, and martial law IT'S pro-
posed by bills in congress is entirely
unnecessary.
