PRAISE FOR THE INFANTRY.

A soldier friend who has just re-
turned from Europe tells us he has
the greatest admiration in the world
for the infantry, from privates up. Be-
longing to the artillery branch of the
service he is not biased He says the
men in the infantry went through hell
both ways, in following a barage of
their own guns, which sometimes hits
them. and in charging through the
enemy barage which usually hit them.
Besides the roaring OF the big guns the
infantry made close acquaintance
with enemy machine guns, bombs, bay
onets, tanks, airplanes, wire entan-
elements, mines and other devices.
After thinking the matter over we
conclude that our friend is right. The
Infantry deserves all the praise pos
sible. ..-s~

Away from the paved streets OF

And rambling through woods and all

Over sure 'nough natural ground.
Spring makes him want to stay out

And hear the old screech OWL
His harsh cry he has to fight
By getting closer to his pal.
He is then up with the singing OF the

And gives himself good stretching

He utters these nature loving words
"Oh! this is the life of Scout.

and relates many interesting expert
ences of his sojourn in France.
Sergeant Laxtom was connecp

in Liverpool June last and atter
several days stay in England proceed
ed to France. After being framed
there for some time they were sent
into the firing line around August l.
and remained in active service on the
line until the signing OF the armlsuce.
Sergeat Laxtom states that the Ger

that the danger would remain Tor
come time after IL o'clock. thus con
tinuing their treacherous tactics to tne

,, tom had opportunities to observe the
, prisoners brought in by the Americans
| At the Mihie1 salient the prisoners
were either beafdless boys or oId
men, but in the Argonne the tale was
| different; the Prussian guards were
used here and were for the most part
large husky men and "they did put
up a fight at this sector" the sergeant
said.
The artilleryman says that at
one time his battery was placed in
a valley and that by climbing the hill
behind the battery the artillerymen
could see the American infantry en-
gaging the enemy at close quarters.
OF all the troops engaged in the
war Sergeant Laxtom was most En-
| pressed with the AnZac fighters,

TO VERA.
Her voice is that of nightingale
Singing in the sky.
Her voice is pure white SAIL
That on the sea doth lie.
Her eyes are two deep pools,
That in the woods repose'
And on each dear cheek,
There blooms red, red rose.
Her hair is as the sunshine,
A curtain of golden glow,
And when the light shines on It,
It quivers to and fro.
She is quiet and sincere,
Awfully nice and neat.
In everything she is a dear,
And 0! how sweet!
