The church was crowded. Flossie,

bore up until the plain band ring was

up his face and broke into bowls.
Tears poured down his face and
dripped off his whiskers.

Bullet Meets Bullet

So many bullets flew through the
air IN both directions in large battles
of the great war that some of them
were bound to bump into each other
A pair of fighting bullets were picked
up by an English soldier one day after
he and his comrades had pushed the
Germans back several hundred yards.
In their perilous journey over No
Mans land they struck barbed-wire en-
tanglements with the varied results
shown.
