Uses of Surrender Token Clearly
Defined by The Hague

A parlementaire to arrange a surrender
or nm armistlce has 10 follow n certain
etiquette which is laid down by the rules
Of war as established at The Hague and
by custom.
A parlementairc consists OF nm envoy
or cnvoya from the enemy, properly All

compancd by n bugler or trumpeter "a
call attention The persons Of the parle-
mentaire are inviolable, provided they d0
not commit trcachcry and provided the
commander TO whom they are sent is will
ing 10 receive them. Those who meet them
must take all steps to prevent them from
obtaining information and for that reason
it is usual to blindfold them when passing
through the lines.
Either the cofnmander-,n-chief or "A
prominent general of the defeated army
goes in person with the parementalre.
General Gablenz, after the defeat Of the
Anstrians at Sadowa, in iS66 proceeded
to the prussian lines under the flag Of
truce, and was there bllndfolded that he
might be conducted to KING William. The
King, seeing the bnndagc about his eyes,
supposed that he was a wounded enemy
officer, and spoke some words of sympathy
10 him before discovering the mistake.

THE CHRISTMAS DRUMS.

The Christmas drums are beating
Triumphantly repeating
The tale Of mighty armies
In shock Of battle meeting,
The story and the glory
OF fields still wet and CORY,
OF captured farm and village,
And chateau quaint and hoary,
OF banners smoked and tattcred,
OF gums and trenches battered,
OF brave battalions charging,
Though manned and lood-bespattcred
OF how the Hun went under
By Freedom split asunder
A saga full Of wonder
OH don't YOU hear them thunder
The Christmas drums in France.
AT Waterloo they rumbled,
At Gettysburg they grumblcd,
The ancient power Of Prussia
Before their wrath has crumblcd
But never have they sounded
30 jub liant. Or pounded
SO proudly as with vivas
And tears and cheers surrounded,
And bells above them ringing,
And troops behind them swinging,
They roll and thump and rattle
i splendid chorus bringing
The q orious revelation
Unto q tortured nation
OF tyranny's cessation,
The music of salvation,
The Christmas drums in France Leslie S

SERGT. STANTON TELLS OF TRUCE

A. r. Stayton Of sos Shipley street
has received n letter from his son. Sergeant
Leon b. Stayton, who is IN France with
the 10Th division, in which the latter
SAYS.
II Just want to send you few lines
10 let you know that am still alive and
we'll and have not been sick or wounded.
| have not the cone ylcnces TO write 3
letter but this note will suffice Tor the
present.
II have been over the topfor the second
time | can't tell YOU where. as the letters
are still censored but when the firing
ceased ] was on the firing line right III
the front line with about = enemy
machine guns pumping at us.
Ii was remarkable experience hav
ing the Germans coming over TO or
lines and exchanging souvenirs With
Us. As for souvenirs TO bring home |
will have plenty The helmets ! could
have gotten all that | could carry, but
they weigh about two pounds apiece.
and as We were never close to a post
othcc they would have been too heavy
TO carry. There were piles OF them every
where
| have had some remarkable escapes
and wonderful experiences. \ corporal
and myself we're lost for a time IN the
Argonne battle Of Mlntfaucon and found
ourselves cut off from our platoon in
barbed wire enlargement, which We
had 70 cut through and wiggle along on
our stomachs for some time before We
regain d our company Bullets from
machine guns and German snlpers were
flying all around US.
lots more happenings and escapes
we have had iii plenty ! cannot write
about them I'll, but most OF them are
printed in my mind ! believe, forever.
France Is very quiet and peaceful
like at present. and we are wondering
when we are going home. Have received
the newspapers pretty regularly and
most Of the packages. Received the socks
few days ago and also the candy BE
glad 10 have some more Just like It,.
particularly the fudge Have re eived
nearly all the letters you have written
up to date and still getting lots Of mail
and papers.
II have been notified by the War
Department that ] have qualified for

ippine service and is almost due. At
present am in command OF a platoon
and have great deal Of work TO do,
but viii write home as often AZ ] can.
This is the first Christmas that | have
been away from home and | hope it
will be the last
