monials from the Secretary of War
and Army Officers of high rank and
reputation are set forth in no uncer-
tain terms. The following ringing
words of Major General Bell, ad-
dressed to the famous "Buffaloes"
the seth Regiment, are typical of
the high regard and respect of Amer
lean and European officers for our
colored troops. Every private in this
regiment and most of the officers
were Negroes. The General said:-
This is the best disciplined and
best drilled and best spirited regi-
ment that has been under my COM
mand at this cantonment. I predict
ed last fall that Colonel Moss would
have the best regiment stationed here
and you men have made my predic-
ton come true. I would lead you in
battle against any army in the world
with every confidence in the out
come.

our way to the Arras-Cambrai Canal.
So ended the third 12-hour period
The next IL hours demonstrated
how fortunate / was in escaping in
jury at this time. Two companies,
one of them mine, were detailed to
cross the canal in the night and wipe
out a lone machine gun nest that was
endangering the whole battalion. We
had to creep half a mile down the side
of the canal and then float over every
one in the two companies-240 in all
from debris and rubbish scattered
around. After an hour of this indi-
vidual ferrying we were ready and
90 feet of the nest before we were
noticed. Then somebody gave the
alarm and they opened fire. There
was nothing to do but rush the po-
sition.
1t took about 20 minutes to
wipe out that nest, which had eight
guns in it. When we were through
and gathered around to go back. we
found that there were only 4S out of
the original 240 that could return.
All the rest were either dead or badly
wounded. 1 was lucky enough to be
one Of the As.
BY this time we were rather ex-
hausted, but the next IL hours
brought more fighting. What was left

but insisted that Miss Brown had no
right to take away the pigeon. He
was silenced by Henry.
It's her pigeon, amt it? You don't
think Benny would give the lady his
horse, do you?"
The Information Kid took no part
in the argument. He thought he
knew what had prompted Miss Brown
to run away. He even hazarded
wild guess as to what use she might
put that pigeon. The angle that in
terested him most was the probable
effect upon Benny Benson and Ad-
vance Guard. The closin-day handi-
cap was only a week distant.
The young king Of the hustlers
visited Frying Pan Hill and greeted
Benny Benson diplomatically. Benny
tried to carry matters off with high
hand. Yep, she took my advice
finally. Womans got no business in
