CHAPTER TX.
Suicide Annex.

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 I learned that machine sgunners 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, M D D. The floor of the dugout was an ir.ch deep in water. Outside it 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 it.. These steps were cut into the earth, but at that time were muddy and slip pery. A man had to be very careful or else he would "shoot the chutes" The air was foul, and you could cut the smoke from Tommy's flags 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 ar engagements were superb-one candle in a reflector made from an ammuni- 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 fireside at home, the fellow next to me-, who was writing a letter, looked up and inno- gently asked, Say, Tank, how do you spell 'conf1agration'?
 I looked at him in contempt and an- swered- that I did not know.
 From, the darkness in one of the cor ners came thin, piping voice singing / one of the popular trench ditties en- titled: :,..r.
 Pack up your Troubles in your Old Kit
 U Bag, and Smile, Smile, Smile" a. Every now and then the singer WouSQ Stop 10 cougn,r cOugn, cough, but it was a good illustration of Temm -'s cheerfulness under such conditions
 A machine-gun officer entered the dugout and gave me a hard look, I sneaked past him, sliding and slipping, aud reached my section of the front line trench, where was greeted by the sergeant, who asked me, "Where in -. lave you beenY'
 made no answer, but sat on the muddy fire step, shivering with the cold and with the rain beating in my face. About half an hour later l teamed up with another fellow and went on guard with my head sticking over the top. At, ten o'clock I was relieved and resumed my sitting posi- tion on; the fire step. The rain sud- 1; denly stopped and we all breathed a sigh of relief. We prayed for the morn ing and the rum issue.
