here at British headquarters in

a German air raid or an attack on
the British front.

to cover the war have adjusted our
lives to a schedule as regular as it
is unWarlike.

the morning, when a batman comes
in and announces the daily BATH
There follows a cafe au lait with
the usual croissant and off we go
to press headquarters in the back
yard of another hotel eight blocks
away in the-center of town. Stories
handed in to the censor the night
before are ready for dispatch and
we take them over to the post
Office, where, after wrangling with
three or four operators along the
line, we finally dictate them to
our London offices.
After that we meet our conduct
ing officers in the local cafe, have
a coffee and perhaps a fine" and
climb into the sturdy little vauxhalls
which cart us about the country
side. During the morning we gen.
orally visit some point along the
frontier-a pillbox, the headquarters
of famous regiment, or a spot
where they have some unusual kind
of equipment. We can talk to
officers and men as freely as we
want to and look at everything in
sight, the only limitation being that
everything we write will have to be
censored. Then off we 60 to the
nearest town with good restaurant
and fill ourselves full Of good French
food and Burgundy before coming
back to headquarters.

Back here we write our stories in
our hotel rooms and hand them in
to the censor before dinner. After
the evening meal we either listen
to a lecture by some one from
G.. H. @. or the intelligence depart
ment or 90 to the cafe and while
away the time with coffee and
billiards. The price of coffee and
brandy is francs-about 10 cents
