l slept badly. I Kept waking up.
Whenever l walked up saw the same
thing. | saw the machine gun position
- the little plateau back there, afloat
in the night. Shells would be searching
for it. They shook its foundations,
they rolled down its sides; finally
they found it. Earth and rock spouted
upward. Dugouts crumbled, beams
flew up into the air, and with the
beams, arms and legs.
The next time I'd wake up. it would
be an airplane. 1t was buzzing, buzzing
above the little plateau, nosing about,
searching for it. A great bomb dropped.
Where dugouts had been, there was
now only one huge crater.
The next time, box barrage would
be settling about the lone little fiat,
isolating it in curtains of explosion and
flames. A torrent of projectiles lit into
the center between the flaming cur
tains; the whole face of the plateau
boiled. Waves of insane infantry
poured across. Bayonets struck down
into the hideously softened earth.
And all the time, awake or sleeping,
was listening. listening with strained
ears. Down in my deep shelter, be-
tween walls. beneath earth, sounds of
the restless front lines came muffled
to almost nothing. There would be

long stretches of silence, the long line
sleeping, then somewhere it cracked
back to life. This came to me through
the earth in sound like low vast
boiling. as of a great pot of mush. All
of the time my ears we're straining
for this low vast boiling, telling of
something wrong somewhere - raid,
an attack, perhaps the start of a great
drive. And always it was the little
plateau that | saw, reeling and over
whelmed.
Finally the light Of my electric
torch on my watch told me that day
had come, and | climbed out of the
cellar. went to the front door and sat
down on the sill, my feet out on the
street.
The wide, long, cobbled, greasily
muddy street was quiet in the morning
light. Now and then belated camion
back from the lines rumbled by. Now
and then some single enlisted man on
some errand crossed from one house to
another. Once the hum of airplanes
passed overhead and a bugle blew.
About every half hour flock of shells
from the east passed overhead and
landed like load from some great
truck on cross roads half mile away.
The street ran straight to the east, and
became a road. The road ran straight
for while, and then curved out of
sight. My eyes nearly all of the time
were on that curve. The last of the
camions seemingly had come in; now

that complication of service known as
the exchange plate.
When she has placed the three salad
bowls, one on each table, she passes
around the cheese pastries. At the end
of this course she takes off the plates
two at time, leaving the tablecloth
bare, crumbs each table, brings in a
dessert plate with the finger bowl on it
and then passes around the dessert.
At the end of dessert you and your
guests leave the tables and go out on
the porch for your coffee. This is either
already poured in cups and brought
in on tray and passed around by the
maid, or brought in on tray and put
down in front of you. and you serve it
yourself exactly as you would after
noon tea. While you are drinking your
coffee the maid clears the tables and
resets them with two packs of un-
opened new cards, three sharpened
pencils Zone extra one in case a point
breaks) and two score pads.
A few suggestions in addition: Since
there is no room on your tables for
them. it is doubly necessary that you
pay particular attention to the effec-
tive use of flowers everywhere else. AS
you know, nothing makes room so
beautiful as flowers. Another impor-
tant thing - if possible have a num-
Der of very small glass-topped tables
(or those otherwise unspoilable) to put
beside any one who is likely to smoke,
or to put glasses. down on them. 1t is
very uncomfortable to have the tables
on which you play cluttered with an
assortment of drinkables, eatables,
smokables or personal belongings.
On hot summer day when people
have been playing cards for about an
hour or little over, the maid should
bring in a large tray and put it down
on a convenient table with large
pitcher of ice water and perhaps an
other pitcher of the same iced tea you
served at lunch The one thing that
hostesses are apt to forget is that five
people out of six long for a drink of
ice water in the afternoon more than
anything else.
In occasional over r-hospitable houses.
sandwiches and cookies are brought in
in addition to the iced tea. but these
are not necessary when bridge follows
a luncheon. II you were inviting people
to come at three and play for the
afternoon, then light refreshments
would be considered necessary be-
tween half past four and five O'Clock.
But on no account serve large mid
afternoon meal if you want to be
thought person of fashion.

munity to give prizes, first prize and

on either side OF the finger bowl. The
coffee spoon is always on it's own
saucer.
With only one maid to wait, it
would probably be best to have the
soup in cups at each place, and the
napkin in this case is necessarily put
at the left side. For as many as twelve
it is best to have place cards. Those
in best taste are perfectly plain white
bristol-board. In the service we have
described it is impossible to put
flowers in the center of the tables be-
cause this space must be left clear for
the casserole dish, which is put on for
the second course. and the salad bowl,
which is put on for the third. And
while it is possible, it is not very prac-
teal to attempt to put small vases
on two or more corners, because they
are all too easily in the way.
Now for the service. Obviously, if
you have two people to wait at table.
there would be no food whatsoever put
down on any table. and you would
have flowers in the center. But having
only one maid. it would be much
easier for her to put the cold soup in
cups at each place before people are
seated, While they are eating their
soup she passes the rolls first and then
pours iced tea from big pitcher into
the glasses which were on the table
A great saving in service would be
to have your service plates hot so that
when the maid carries away the soup
on its saucer, the service plates are
then ready to be used for the main
course. She places one casserole dish
in the center of each table, with a
serving fork and spoon with each.
(The maid will have cut each chicken
through into four pieces without de-
stroying its appearance. This is done
usually with special type of scissors
when the casserole dishes are re-
moved from the oven) Then perhaps
she refills the tea glasses and passes
the rolls.
Taking off the plates of this course
is tedious because she must pick up
the used plate with her right hand and
put the salad plate down with her left.
When all the plates are exchanged she
brings in the salad bowl of mixed
green's, so that salad lovers can stir it
up to their hearts content before
helping themselves. Don't forget that
salad previously arranged on individ-
ual plates will add difficulty to the
service since, properly, a used plate
may never be exchanged for one with
food OH it and so there is necessity for

antries to make my next question
casual. That fellow Cortot," said
at length. "He was to come back here
this morning, wasn't he?"
Those were the ORDERS" he said.
l went back to the open door.
Time dragged. But finally, around the
curve, up the road, a motorcycle
slithered into sight. 1t had one of
those bathtublike attachments. And
in that attachment sat yes -
Lieutenant Cortot. Down the street
he came in his bathtub. 1t bounced on
the cobbles, he bounced in it; it gave
his spare form resemblance to Don
Quixote. And he did not know that
bouncing down the street thus, he was
really advancing to chorus of hosan-
mas if a chorus can be imaged to
proceed out of single heart.
The motor stopped before the door;
he got out wearily. Now l could see
how l had made my mistake in the
night. At little distance, his slight
silhouette was youthful, though now.
in the light of day, l saw that he
walked with knees slightly bent, as do
old men. At little distance his profile
was firm under the helmet; it was only
nearer that the space within the out
line appeared filled with a network of
lines and wrinkles.
We went inside. He sank upon a
chair, threw his helmet on the table -
and his head burst upon me snow
white.
What sort of night did you
have?" the Major asked.
mot bad, mon c0mnsanddnt. A little
shelling "a little cold frost - not
bad" He shrugged his shoulders.
But now, he said, rubbing his hands
with satisfaction, ''it is all over, that
sort of thing! Have you heard?" He
turned to me. HAS the Major told
you? That tonight reach my age
limit and 60 back to civil life? Maybe
you think that it is little ignoble
that should be so glad, eh? WE'LL" he
laughed, Il do not care!'
And as he went on, for a moment
thought he was spoofng; I thought
that he was inventing something just
for me, to rub it in. as it we're. But he
wasn't. He was speaking with inno-
cent candor, not thinking of me at all.
The reason why I do not care" he
was saying. "It's because have some
thing to do. have a little grand
daughter, Major - you did not know
that, did you? A little, fatherless
granddaughter - my son died at
Verdun. Motherless, too-her mother
died soon after. Her name is Jeanne,
Major; call her Jeanette. She has a
little bit of a red mouth like a rose
bud, and she makes little soft sounds
like bird, and her hair is light, light,
light, like sunbeams.
Let the people tear at each other,
let the nations roar; I am going to put
cotton in my ears and attend to just
one thing: am going to see that this
little child is happy"
This is one of the clearest memories
I have of my career in the Big War.
This recollection of the time when l
acted the Smart Aleck. l sweat a little
bit yet whenever remember.
