While the oncoming horde of Ger mens had been pushing their way through Belgium, smashing forts, burning villagea, terrorizing the peace - loving inhabitants of that little coun- IrY, the French and English had done what they could to prepare for the Impending shock of the Teuton attack. The worst of it was, the Germans were ready, and the allies were not. The Britialt expeditionary force num- bered but a handful of men, compared to the hosts from across the Rhine. But that \thin red line of 'eroes\- only they were uniformed in khaki now-set about its superhuman task with bulldog determination. They had swept out es far 88 they dared to meet the Invader. And then they in - trenched themselves; and there they waited. That WAS the werrst part of it all - the waiting. Heart-rending repOrts of happenings In many Belgian - villagen came to the British, for Courvolaier WAS only one of many hamlets that tragedies to relate. Arid the Brit- ish were po*erlese to aid those strick. en people. Trench 27 -the English trench which Streetmen had indicated upon his map as being the keystone to the enemy's defense -lay in the first line of the . British. Ail iineonscioue sof any spe- cial designs'that the Germaus might have against their particular position. the Tommles stationed there proceed- ed to put things in 'thane for the gen- eral action that was bound to come. After completing their grim arrange- ments, there was little for them to do fer_th.e time_teing, e_xe(vt rgst._ And fhat they were - glad (Weigh to' do, after their herculean exertions of those first days of the wir. That there was worse ahead of them they did not doubt. But in the meantime there was no reason why they should nol make themselves at home, It was night -the second night fol. lowing that fatal day when the Ger- mans descended upon the Lion d'Or and robbed Jeanne Christophe of her father. In Trench 27 four soldiers were playing poker under the, shelter of a bombproof hnt that they had con- structed by digging into .es Aide of the ditch. Dirty, unehaven, begrimed. they were nevertheless enjoying to the full their well-eained respite. And the flickering light of the candle which stood upon their rude table revealed no fear upon. the face of any of them At either end of the trench two men stood guard, while close at hand 0 periscope lay upon a makeshift bench, ready for instant use in case the watchers should detect any unusual and suspicious movements in front of them. Out there beneath the stars tke first outpost Of the enemy had already dug itself in. Andodn-stestimony of their alertness the Germans continu- ally played a searchlight upon the Britiah position. That prying shaft of light was never still. NOw it swept the top of Trench 27, now flickered upon a tree close \ by, and then searched the intervening ground be- tween the two lines in an effort to de- tect some venturesome observer. To the four privates in the bomb- proof shelter there came a momentary Interruption, in the shape of a lieu- tenant, who sauntered into their trench from the left. This youthful officer, whom they had already voted \a bit of all -right,\ observed them pleasantly. \hello boys!\ he said. They sprang up and saluted, mur• muring \Good evenlng, sir!\ \How's the game?\. the lieutenant Inquired. \Henry there, is winning all our cigarettes,\ one of the men said. The young officer smiled. And then, drawing a pencil and a postcard from his pocket, he seated himself and pro- ceeded to write a note to a young woman in London. For Guy FrUconer had consistently kept his promise to write Georgy every day. The privates promptly resumed their poker game. \I raise it one dire tte,\ one of a them said. And again Guy smiled. He was glad that his/ ya *ere en. joying themselves. So engrossed did Lieutenant Fal- coner become in his note to his lady love that he did not notice when hie captain appeared, in the company of a civilian. Captain Montague paused and turned to his guest. \Now Mr. Brown,\ he said, \you're in the first line of the English trenchet -Trench 27 -and I may say you're the only American correapondent whc has had this experience.\ Charlie Brown looked about witt undisguised interest. \And I rather butted in.\ he re- marked. \wen. as leng OR you stumbled in side our lines, you might as well Bee eomething, if you give nie your won! not to write anything.\ \That's a nice thing to say to a newspaper nian,\ Charlie retorted. \But I have your word?\ \I tepose so!\ It cost Mr. !frolic some effort to promise that. He saw the makings of a bully scoop before him. And he hated to forego such a wonderful opportunity. \The closer you are to the front, the less you know of what's happening,' Captain Montague resumed, \excel? , on your own very small square of a eery large checkerboard. . . . Hut technically, you are under fire.\ \Am I?\ Mr. Brown WAR surprised at that. \Somehow I don't feel any lifferent.\ he said. \Yon would if you stuek your head aver that trench and they happened to Bee it,\ the captain told him grimly \Well -believe me, I'm not going to,\ said Charlie. \.kren't they un- usually quiet tonight?\ \Yes. rather! But always befell the evening's over they give us a bit of fireworks and go for some of out men with a lucky shrapnel or two. You see. they try to get our range , to the daytime, and then at night they shoot at the same range.\ Charlie Brown and his escort had not talked long before Guy Falconer caine out of his abstraction. He raised his head all at once and looked inquir- ingly at the civilian. Then he jumped up and approached Charlie with out- stretched hand. \I thought I recognized that voice!\ he exclaimed. \Do you remember me, Charlie Brown?\ \Hello Guy!\ the delighted Ameri- can cried. \So you did come' over to the front, after all? Didn'il saj you would?\ ' . -..,- \Yes! L came over with the first batch -bribed the recruiting sergeant' And here I am! . . . Bu ‘ t what are you tieing at the frontr' Charlie explained how he had fallen into the hands of the Germane, how •they•had set him free and started him toward Brussels. But his . rebellious nature had revolted; and having hid- den by day and traveled by night, he had made straight for the place where he understood the British to be In - trenched. • Nie. Brown hnd scarcely finished his brief recital when there folpwed an ominous whistle, which seemed to eonie from over his head. Off in the distanee there was a flash and an ex-, plosion. \What's that?\ the American asked: \Oh just one of our shells traveling somewhere to our friends, the eneniy,\ the captain informed him. I _\That w.11.1_ probably: start their eve , ! nin oi g They - sona n ' r eedet GuY re h mirf urry 4 on --- my - count,\ Charlie sold. For a few minutes they stood there,' discussing the war. \What's it for?' the newipaPer man asked. \There's no incUvidual hatred -no great, soul -stirring emotional crisis behind it all.\ \But England , was forced into it,\ Captain Montague interposed. \And I dare say France and Russia end Austria all feel they were forced into \it too,\ Charlie replied. rThat's the whole trouble. Each nation be- lieves honestly that it's in the right, and in some way I suPpose each of them is. . . . I don't know -I'm not a big enough man to attempt to say. . . And what good is it all?\ \It is that militarism shall cease - that never again can there be another . war like this,\ the English eaptain told him. • As they talked, a doctor, accompa- nied by two - stretcher bearers, en- tered the trench, and, finding that Were was no need for their services in that quarter, they passed on. \That's the Red Cross,\ Captain Montagne explained, noticing the jour- nalist's interest in the trio. Following close uppu his words came another of those sfnister whistles. \That's one of their shells!\ the captain continued, meaning the Ger- mans. At the information Mr. Brown promptly ducked and huddled down upon the bench under the overhang of the trench. \You needn't duck, old manl It wouldn't do you any good,\ the elder officer remarked. \Anyway that shell was on its way toward one of our batteries,\ he added, pointing to their rear. \Well now they've started, any- how,\ Guy said. \Sometimes they fire only one or hvo shots -and then again they go on all night,\ his senior officer explained. Stepping to the field telephone. which rang insistently, Captain Mon- tague received a message from the battery posted some distance behind. When Guy Calconer learned that some light bombs were to be let off, he W i gged the captain to let him climb tne tree that rose near one end of the trench, in order that he might try to get the range of the German guns. The captain did not like the idea. He had been cautioned not to expose his men -Land especially his officers - unnecessarily. And he warned Guy th ma a n t h a e ni m pe ig r. hf get picked off by a Ger- \Not a chancer Gey-protested. \Please! It would be ripping really to do something.\ The captain perceived that the in- action of waiting tor an attack was fast setting Guy's nefves on edge. And at last he gavejle eqnsent. FOr a little time dilly called out di- rections to the captain, who stood at the telephone relaying Guy's instruc- tions * to the battery. In the light fur- nisliell by the British bombs the youth- ful lieutenant carefully watched the effect of the shells that whistled over their heads and burst Increasingly nearer to the Teuto0 \Right on a gun!\ Guy shouted at last. \1 It enimple! That's it! Keep th'e range at twenty-nine fifty!\ The words were hardly out of his mouth before he came toppling from his perch. The captain and one of tbe privates caught the limp figure just be- fore it struck the ground, and they laid him tenderly upon the 'dirt floor of Trench 27. \They've got him. . . . ile's not dead. though.\ . . . Captain Monta- gue kneeled beside the lad and bent over him. And a corporal with aome knowledge of first-ald pmeedure un- dertook to stop Guy's bleeding. He was seriously wounded -that much Wn-; clear. And he was unconscious. \Beastly dull\ --so Guy bad been writing Georgy Wagstaff. \Awfully hot -no excitement. Flaven't seen a German or any decent food. But that -- doesn't matter. Tell mother I'm being careful.\ wa \ r P l oor kid!\ Charlie Brown ex- claimed. It was a grim business -- \Sad -very sad!\ the captain agreed. \PO perhaps he'll pull through; and if he doesn't -well! forgive me, Mr. Brown, if I seetn heartiess-but re- member! this is new to you and he's only one, and I've seen so many!\ Captain Niontague noticed that the American correspondent was white and somewhat unsteady. \I feel a bit shaken. Do yen mind if I go back now?\ Charlie asked. \Certainly not!\ \If I come across the surgeortar any of the Red Cross. you don't milikif I send them ban, do you?\ Charlie wanted to do what he could to help his friend. The captain readily gave his assent. \I'm through with war,\ Charlie Brown said as he shook hands with 'Montague. \I'm off to London. I'll see his mother there, and that kid girl of his -and then go to New York, where there's no war, thank God! And you know.
