out Too Much Delay.

The restless individuality of the
American soldier, who was always
seeking a shorter way to do things,
made him appear to the French and

ments dirt was flying along the whole

the lieutenant, coming up.
"Sh-h,' don't excite my contractor"
the doughboy replied.
Over the edge of the mound the lieu
tenant saw a German prisoner fever

the doughboy's gun. - The Home
