THE GREAT ADVENTURE
BY IRA C. HOPPER, WAR VETERAN

That night after we had spread our blankets down on the floor of the English huts used by us for barracks, we turned in early. Our thoughts unconscious ly wandered back to the events of the past day. and we lay there, pretending to be asleep, yet thinking and ponderlng as we had not done in a long time.
 ''So this is France? We asked this question over and over. So this Is the land we have sead about. have dreamed about, and have faced all dangers to reach"
 How different everything was from America. France had greeted US, but a far different France from what we expected. Everything seemed so old and ancient. It seemed to us, ac- customed as we were to young, vigorous, and hustling America, that we were in another world where people lived aNd worked as they did thousands of years ago. The absence of young people from sight added to this ancient atmosphere. Old men and women. little boys and girls were everywhere Styles of architecture and ways of doing things around town so funny to us.
 Instead of beautiful tree-lined boulpvards. narrow and crooked streets stretched before us. In. stead of large stores coverine a block, tiny shops lined the streets. Instead of palatial residences wfthbeautlful lawns in front, old and Waatherbeaten h ouses. heH- med .in with high walls. were on all sides. Instead ot fast trolleys and many automobiles, we found

slow trains and horse d rawn carts. Instead of machinery do- ing the work around the dock 5, it was done largely by hand and in a very slow manner. Instead of sunshine, a grey mistS was spread over everything, h. stead of warmth, a ch,u reached our bones as we lay there on sthe floor thinking and wondering. We were, at first, somewhat disappointed and had yet to learn that France was a many-sided nation, whose different parts and people are very unlike in disposition, character and ways of living.
 But when we lay there chilled through and through. and con- trasted America with our first impression of France, we felt disappointed and homesick. In. stead of happy carefree and vivacious people. we found a people. silent. determined and grim. And the faint boom of the big guns on the English front in answer to the new Hun drive for the Channel ports told us why these people were silent and sad. and it also told us that our metal was soon to receive the fiery test. We remained a. wake most all night, listening to the rhythmic and faint boem- ing, and wondered how we would act i. we were up there our selves What scene of carnage was happening where those gnns were booming faintly in the distance, we wondered. The Great War. for the first time. seemed very near 10 us and we asked how we ourselve. would stand the test ,Contlnuedl
