Waited Lona for Order.

The German soldier does exactly
what he is told. and no more.
A German officer vas drilling re-
cruits. and had just given them the or
der: "Quick march" when he no.
ticed his sweetheart coming across the
barrack square.
Forgetting all about the recruits, he
entered into conversation with the girl
and went away with her.
Six months later the same officer
was walking down the main street of
the same town when he saw some tat
tered and tired soldiers approaching
him. One of the soldiers, recognizing
the officer. went up to him and, salut-
ing. said:
"Please, sir, what about a halt?"

DUTY
MEANS HARD
WORK :
SOLDIERS IN ACTIVE
PERFORM MANY
.'ODD JOBS"

BEHIND BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE, Aug. 8. - Life on active
service is not entirely composed, as
some people are inclined to imag-
inc, of fighting, of sitting in trench
es, of resting in billets, of march
ing, eating and sleeping.
1t is true that the main activities
of the soldier are comprised in the
above list, but there are countless
other duties which he is called upon
to perform, duties which might best
be called "odd jobs, "and some OF
which are distinctly odd.
The days of camp-followers, who
used to perform the more meniai
tasks of the battle zone, are gone
never to return. The soldier must
now be his own newer of wood and
drawer of water. He must attend
himself to all the little details OF
life. the cleaning of his quarters,
the digging of trenches, the carry
ing of his food.
Broken trenches must be mend
ed, fresh trenches dug and dug-outs
built. All these odd jobs, which
the soldier is called upon to do in
what would otherwise be his spare
time, he sums up under the COM
prehensive heading of fatigue.
Fatigue duty, as the name i'm
plies, is not often a light or rest
full form of occupation. 1t may in
volve a long march with a nights
work at the end of 1t.

cISKED HIS LIFE FOR ENEMY
Glorious Deed Of English Officer Surely
Constituted the Highest
Type Of Bravery.

>valor and glory shine brightest
when we behold them in sacrifices such
as that of Gen. John Cough, V. c..
who went from his place Of safety far
down the line to take comforts to his
old regiment, and was killed while on
his mission of mercy.
IL where a high officer sacrifices
himself for his men is glorious, what
shall we say of the deed of a British
officer who offered himself to save his
foe7 During an attempted daylight
raid on the part of the Germans. they
we're held up by a whitening machine
gun fire and retired with great loss to
their own trenches. One poor Hun.
who was terribly wounded, was i'm
paled upon his own wire, and he hung
there writhing in agony in the eyes of
both armies. Finally the sight. Of his
suffering and his cries for help were
too much for an English officer in the
trenches opposite. vaulting over the
parapet, he walked boldly across No
Mans Land in the direct face of the
foe. and lifting his wounded enemy
from the impaling wire, he carried him
across the Hun parapet and down into
his w trenches. When he arrived
there a German officer took an iron
cross which he wore off his own breast
and placed it on the breast of the brave
British officer. The firing on both
sides ceased while he returned to his
own trenches. And looking on. both
friend and foe alike knew that they
had beheld the highest form of glory.

From the region of the Somme
southwark to where the battle line
turns eastward, furious fighting con
tinued on various sectors, but every
where the enemy has been held, and
even pushed back at some points. No
where has he been able with his great
masses Of men to gain ground, except
an infinitesimal tract from the French
north of Moreuil. The British and
French machine guns and riflemen
again tore great holes in the ranks of
the field gray as they e~ndeavored to
pass forward. So great have been the
losses of the Germans in front Of the
British north of the Somme that Sun
day saw them unwilling again to take
up the gage Of battle. Along the
Scarpe the British themselves went on
the offensive and to the east of Arras
captured the village of Feuchy. On the
southern end of the line the British
and French troops, fighting together,
have met the enemy in furious COM
bats, but everywhere defeated him
with sanginary losses.
In the bend of the line between Mo
reuil and Lassigny the Germans made
frantic efforts to break through, but
the French held them in their tracks,
and, in addition, r%ecaptured several
villages.
Not alone has Won Hindenburg lost
numbers of men killed or wounded, but
both the British and French armies
have taken a considerable number of
new prisoners and also captured ma
chine guns. At last accounts the Ger
mans had launched a fresh attack to
the region between the rivers Luce
and Avre and fierce fighting was in
progress.
The reports from both the British
and French war offices seemingly indi-
cate that the allied troops have reach
ed the limits of their retrograde move
ment. In any event they have can
celed the engagement Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg made with himself to
