CHAPTER xvI-continued.

From the kitchen you could walk
directly into the cow-barn, where two
cows were kept, and this, as have
pointed out before, is the usual con-
struction of the poorer Belgian houses.
I could not make out why the caller
seemed to be SO aptagonistic to me,
and yet am sure he was arguing with
the family against me. Perhaps the
fact that I wasn't wearing wooden
shoes-I doubt whether could have
obtained a pair big enough for me
had convinced him that I was not
really a Belgian, because there was
nothing about me otherwise which
could have given him that idea.
At that time, and I suppose 1t Is
true today. about "a per cent of the
people in Belgium were wearing
wooden shoes. Among the peasants I
don't believe I ever saw any other
kind Of footwear and they are more
common there than they are in Hol-
land. The Dutch wear them more on
account of a lack Of leather. was
told that during the coming year prac-
ideally all the peasants and poorer
people in Germany, too, will adopt
wooden shoes for farm work, as that
b one direction in which wood can be
substituted for leather without much
loss.
When the young man left, I left
shortly afterwards, as was not at
oil comfortable about what his inten-
1ons were regarding me. For all I
knew he might have gone to notify
de German authorities that there was
. strange man in the vicinity-more
perhaps to protect his friends from
suspicion Of having aided me than to
Ajurs me.
At any rate. was not going to take
any chanoes and I got out Of that
Asighborhood as rapidly - could.
That night found me right on the
frontier Of Holland.
