Friendship at the Front Carries Its Grief

RY MISS GLADYS MCINTYRE

written for the United Press,l
WITH THE AMERNCAN BOYS
At THE friendships are a
hig prohlem. Al least. they are out
here on the front. rs hard to keep
from letting your interest Ia people
worry you.
II has been harder than usual for
us. l think. because our acquaint0rces
are continually changing. Troops are
always On the move and we have
stayed quite long time IN eacn OF tho
locations We were in. So we were
never with any regiment permanent"
~. usually just long enough to make
a bunch OF good friends from whom
We hated to part.
We have almost decided that II
doesn't pay to make friends. MI that
ieiy are not wonderful TO have and
a lot of JOY. but that It Is SO hard TO
see them so. especially when sou
know the danger they are ia al tho
time.
Its strange the way we make
friends out here, anyway. When a
new outfit comes I'm town, we are al
ways feeling as though the bottom
has dropped out Of things naturally.
because our old friends have pulled
out the night before. Then a few "t
the new ones win drop around the
kitchen, and ask II there Is anything
they can do to help us.
That is where friends are first made
usually, In the kitchen or At the wood
pile. Sometimes It's over the stove.
where the boys ask us to let tn I'm
dip doughnuts. Then there is usual
~ gradual growth without any cf-
fort ON anyone's part, and some ac-
quaintances become friends aud 9TH
ers just stay acqualntances.
The Home-FOIlsy Sort.
Usually It's the home-folAy sort
that comes around and makes friends,
They usually want to talk and Il
seems to do them good just TO get stor-
les told to some one. We always like
to listen. II never takes them long
to come around TO the girls they left
behind, and they always tell us OF
them.
You cannot help liking these chaps
who want 10 talk OF their sweethearts
They're always devoted. and they
carry pictures with them. which they
always like to show. Il Is interesting
TO see the kinds Of girls they have all
picked out, and they are never just
what you expect,
These men usually take biz
brothsrly interest in us aud their at
tention Is sometimes amusing. I've
had as many as five lectures from

Lots OF Advice.
Usually, these "hig brthers'' 'el us
10 go home. They say Il Is no place
for us SO near the lines, though they
all tell us how much they enjoy hav-
ing ms there. ana how much they
like doughnuts. But they would
rather have us home. they say. and
get along without douEhnutn
but we think otherwise. We want
to stay.
