So the words used to mean, Take over the command and do the job right" But now they mean not only that but Keep up your courage, and go to it." One man will say 1t to another sometimes when he thinks the first man is getting downhearted, but more often, if he is a Limey, he will start kidding him.
 Our men, of course, did not say Garry on," and in fact they did not have any expression in French that meant exactly the same thing. But they used to cheer each other along, all right, and they passed along the command when it was necessary. too. I wonder what expression the Ameri- can troops will use. (You notice do not call them Sammies
 I took my turn at listening post with the rest of them, of course. A listen- ing post is any good position .out in No Mans Land, and is always held by two men. Their job is to keep live ear on Fritz and in case they hear any thing that sounds very much like an attack one man runs back to his lines and the other stays to hold back the Boches as long as he can. You can figure for yourself which is the most healthful Job.'
 As many times as I went on listen ing-post duty I never did get to feel ing homelike there exactly. You have to lie very still, of course, as Fritz is listening. too, and a move may mean a bullet in the ribs. So, lying on the ground with hardly change of posi- tion, the whole lower part of my body would go to sleep before I had been at the post very long. I used to brag a lot about how fast I could run, so I had my turn as the runner, which suited me all right. But every time l got to listening post and started to think about what I would do if Fritz should come over and wondered how good runner he was, took a long breath and said, Feet, do your duty" And was strong on duty.
 After I had done my stunt in the front-line and reserve trenches I went back with my company to billets, but had only been there for a day or two before I was detached and detailed to the artillery position to the right of us, where both the British and French had mounted naval guns. There were and field pieces, and got good look at the famous "75's," which are the best guns in the world ill my estima- ton, and the one thing that saved Verdun. sssss,

ACQUITTED WOMAN KILLED.
Lucy Marsh Fatally Shot From Am
bush in kershaw County.

Camden, Dec. 19.-Lucy Marsh, a
white woman, was shot and instantly
killed seven miles east of Camden
this afternoon, and her mother, Re-
becca Marsh, was slightly wounded
in the head from two loads of buck
shot. Andrew Baker, a white man,
has been placed in Jail charged with
the killing.
At the last term of court, Lucy
Marsh was tried for the murder of
Mrs. Estelle Baker, the wife of An
drew Baker, and was acquitted BY
the jury. Both women were tenants
on the farm of Doctor G. ]. Baker,
and this afternoon had loaded their
household goods on two wagons and
were moving away.
Three eye witnesses stated that An
drew Baker lay in waiting behind a
tree and fired two loads of buc!Ishot
into the backs of the two women.
l:ucy Marsh fell forward into the
wagon, dying instantly. Andrew Ba-
!;er went on toward his home, where
he was arrested a short while after
by Deputies Bateman and Whitaker,
tut he offered no resistance. When
told that he was charged with the
shooting he remained silent and has
made no statement of the affair.
No one has been convicted Of the
murder of Mrs. Estelle Baker and it is
thought that the real murderer will
come to light at the trial of Baker.

country best by using their knowledge
of how to drive and care for car.
Hundreds of them have volunteered.

Over the shell-scarred ground of
