about seventeen, were extremely nerV-
Gus. l had indicated to them that l
was deaf and dumb, but if they be-
any more comfortable.
1 fingered at the house for about an
hour after the meal and during that
time a young man came to call on the
eldest daughter, a young woman of
perhaps eighteen. The caller eyed me
very suspiciously, although 1 must
have resembled anything but a British
officer. They spoke Flemish and 1 did
not understand a word they said, but
l think they were discussing my prob
able identity. During their conversa-
ton, l had a chance to look around
the room. There were three alto
gether, two fairly large and one
somewhat smaller, about fourteen feet
long and six deep. In this smaller
room there were two dOuble-decked
beds, which were apparently intended
to house the whole family, although
how the whole twelve of them could
sleep in that n room will ever re-
main a mystery to me.
From the kitchen you could walk
directly into the cow-barn, where two
cows were kept, and this, as l have
pointed out before, is the usual con-
struction of the poorer Belgian houses.
l could not make out why the caller
seemed to be so antagonistic to me,
and yet 1 am sure he vas arguing with
the family against me. Perhaps the
fact that l wasn't wearing wooden
shoes-I doubt whether l could have
obtained a pair big enough for me
had convinced him that l was not
really a Belgian, because there was
nothing about me otherwise which
could have given him that idea.
At that time, and 1 suppose it is
true today, about "a per cent Of the
people in Belgium were wearing
wooden shoes. Among the peasants I
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. l was
told that during the coming year prac-
tically all the peasants and poorer
people in Germany, too, will adopt
wooden shoes for farm work, as that
is one direction in which wood can be
substituted for leather without much
loss.
When the young man left, l left
shortly afterwards, as l was not at
all comfortable about what his inten-
lions were regarding me. For all 1
knew he might have gone to notify
the German authorities that there was
a strange man in the vicinity-more
perhaps to protect his friends from
suspicion of having aided me than to
injure me.
At any rate, I was not going to take
any chances and 1 got out of that
neighborhood as rapidly as l could.
That night found me right on the
frontier of Holland.

park. 1 heard footsteps behind me and
turning round saw two German sol
diers. 1 slowed up a trife to let them
get ahead of me-. 1t was rather dark
and l got q chance to see what a Won
derful uniform the German military
authorities have picked out. The SOL
diers had not gone more than a few
feet ahead of me when they disap-
peared In the darkness like one Of
those melting pictures on the moving
picture screen.
AS 1 wandered through the streets 1
frequently glanced in the cafe win
dow as l passed. German officers
were usually dining there, but they
didn't conduct themselves with any
thing like the light-heartedness which
characterizeS the allied officers in
London and Paris. 1 was rather sur
prised at this because in this part of
Belgium they were much freer than
they would have been in Berlin,
where, 1 understand, food is compar-
atively scarce and the restrictions
are very strict.

this city was in some respects worse
than it had been when I was making
my way through the open country.
While l had a place to sleep and my
clothes were no longer constantly
soaking, my opportunities for getting
food were considerably less than they
had been. Nearly all the time 1 was
half famished, and / decided that 1
would get out of there at once, since
1 was entirely through with Huyliger.
My physical condition was greatly
improved. While the lack of food
showed itself on me, 1 had regained
some of my strength, my wounds
were healed, and my ankle was
stronger, and although my knees were
still considerably enlarged, l felt that
l was in better shape than l had been
at any time since my leap from the
train, and 1 was ready to go through
whatever was in store for me-.

CHAPTER XVI.
! Leave for the Frontier.

To get out of the city, it would be
had learned in the course of my walks
at night, having frequently Travelled
to the city limits with the idea Of
finding out just what conditions I
would have to meet when the time
came for me to leave.
A German soldiers uniform, how
ever, no longer worried me as 1t had
at first. 1 had mingled with the Huns
so much in the city that l began to
feel that 1 was really a Belgian, and I
assumed the Indifference that they
seemed to feel.
1 decided, therefore, to walk out Of
the city in the daytime, when the SEN
tries would be less apt to be on the
watch. 1t worked fine. 1 was not
held up a moment, the sentries evil
IDENTIFY taking me for a Belgian peas
ant on his way to work.
Travelling faster than I had ever
done before since my escape, l was
soon out in the open country, and the
first Belgian l came to l approached
for food. He gave me half of his
lunch and we sat down on the side of
the road to eat it. OF course, he tried
to talk to me, but 1 used the old ruse
Of pretending 1 was deaf and dumb
and he was quite convinced that 1t was
so. He made various efforts to talk
to me in pantomime, but / could not
make out what he was getting at, and
1 think he must have concluded that 1
was not only half starved, deaf and
dumb, but 'looney' in the bargain.
When night came I looked around
for a place to rest. I had decided to
travel in the daytime as well as night,
because I understood that it was only
q few miles from the frontier, and l
was naturally anxious to get there at
the earliest possible moment, although
1 realized that there l would encounter
the most hazardous part of my whole
adventure. To get through the heavily
guarded barbed wire and electrically
charged barrier was a problem that l
hated to think of even although the
hours 1 spent endeavoring to devise
some way of outwitting the Huns
were many.
1t had occurred to me, for instance,
that it would not be such a difficult
matter to vault over the electric fence,
which was only nine feet high. In col
lege, I knew a ten-foot vault is consid-
cred a high-school boys accomplish
ment, but there were two great diff
ficulties in the way Of this solution.
In the first place it would be No easy
matter to get a pole of the right
length, weight and strength to serve
the purpose. More particularly, how
ever, the %pole-vault idea seemed to me
to be out of the question because OF
the fact that on either side of the cleo
trio fence, six feet from it, was q six
foot barbed wire barrier. To vault
safely over a nine-foot electrically
charged fence was n thing, but to
combine with it a twelve-foot broad
vault was a feat which even a college
athlete in the mink nf condition would

CHAPTER XVII.
Getting Through the Lines.

0CLIlIlS AiSASh NV nv
Waiting until it was quite dark, l
made my way carefully through a
field and eventually came to the much
dreaded barrier.
1t was all that I had heard about it.
Every foot of the border line between
Belgium and Holland is protected in
precisely the same n 1t is there
to serve three purposes: first, to pre-
vent the Belgians from escaping into
Holland; second to keep enemies, like
myself, from making their way to free
dom and third, to prevent assertions
on the part of Germans themselves.
One look was enough to convince any
one that it probably accomplished all
three objects about as well as any con-
t~rivance could. and one look was all I
got of it that night, for while l lay
on my stomach gazing at the forbid
ding structure l heard the measured
stride of a German sentry advancing
towards me and 1 crawled away as
fast as l possibly could, determined
to spend the night somewhere in n
fields and make another and more
careful survey the following night.
The view l had obtained, however,
was sufficient to convince me that the
pole-vault idea was out of the Ques-
ton even if 1 had a pole and was a
proficient p%ole-vaulter. The three
