1t was a good while before any,
thing happened. But Johnnie Green
did not mind that. He had brought
plenty of cookies to MUNICH. And he
pretended that he was a sailor in the
crows nest of a ship, on the lookout
for a sail.
After a while he almost forgot what
he was really doing. He was leaning
far out of the eupola, shading his
eyes with one hand, and stuffing a
cookie into his mouth with the other,
and gazing off across the meadow,
when all at once he heard old Spot
yelping.
That sound brought Johnnie to his
senses. And glancing down, he saw
Spot tearing across the barnyard,
making for the woodshed door in
great bounds, And behind him. perch

ME saw a familiar figure.
IT'S the monkey again!" Johnnie
Green cried. And he clambered quick
ly to the ground.
But when he reached the henhouse
Major Monkey had fled. Johnnie
could see his red coat Pickering
among the leaves in the orchard. But
he knew it was useless to follow.
Although Major Monkey was aware
that Johnnie Green had seen him
again, he did not stop visiting the
henhouse. To be sure, he became
somewhat more wary. He never went
inside the henhouse for eggs with
out first looking around carefully. to
make sure that Johnnie Green wasn't
watching him. And for a time the
Major kept an eye out for traps.
He saw nothing of the sort any
where. But one day when he leaped
to the window-sill of the henhouse
he was delighted to find a lump OF
maple sugar, which some one had
~carelessly left there.
At least. that was what the Major
supposed. And with something a good
deal like a chuckle he ate the dain.

He could have very easily placed
himself in the attitude some people

wss just an American army corporal,
a Yankee non-com, but he didn't try
to shirk any responsibility.
It happened near Verdun, in the 27-
day battle of the Argonne. The regl-
ment to which the corporal belonged
was pretty badly shot up. The Huns
had thrown out smoke screens and
were attacking the Americans hard.
The lone soldier was falling back
