WAR IS CRUMBLING THE WALL OF CASTE THAT HAS
STOOD SO LONG IN BRITISH ARMY.
8ynopsia>—Fired by the sinking ot the Lusitanla, with the loss of
American Uvea, Arthur Guy Empey, au American living in Jersey City,
goes to England and enlists as a private in the British army. After a
abort experience as a recruiting officer in London, he is sent to, training quarters in France, where he first hears the sound of big guns and
makes the acquaintance of "cooties." After a brief period of training
Empey'8 company is sent into the f&nt-Une trenches, where he takes
bis first turn on the Are step while the bullets whiz overhead. Empey
learns, as comrade falls, that death lurks always in the trenches.
Chaplain distinguishes himself by rescuing wounded men under hot
fire. With pick and shovel Empey has experience as a trench digger,
in *Jo Man's Land. Exciting experience on listening post detail. Exciting work on observation post duty. Back to rest billets Empey
writes and stages a successful play.

CHAPTER XIX—Continued.
—15—
The game is honest and quite enjjoyable, Sometimes you have fourteen
[numbers on your card covered and
lyou are waiting for the fifteenth to be
called. In an Imploring voice you call
out, "Come on, Watkins, chum, I'm
sweating on 'Kelly's Eye.'"
Watkins generally replies, "Well,
ikeep out of a draft, you'll catch cold."
Another game is "Pontoon," played
I with cards; It is the same as our
[••Bluck Jack." or "Twenty-one."
j A card game called "Brag" Is also
|popular. Using a casino deck, the
dealer deals each player three cards.
It is similar to our poker,- except for
the fact that you only use three cards
and cannot draw. The deck la_never
shuffled until a man shows three of a
kind or a "prile" as it is called. The
value of the hands are, high card, a
pair, a run, a flush or three of a kind
jor "prile." The limit is generally a
[penny, so it is hard to win a fortune.
The next in popularity Is a card
igame called "Nap." It is well named.
'Every time I played it I went to sleep.
Whist and solo whist are played by
the highbrows of the company.
When the gamblers tire of all other
igames they try "Banker and Broker."
1 spent a week tryipg to teach some
of the Tommies how to play poker, but
because I won thirty-flve francs they
declared that they didn't "fawncy" the
game.
Tommy plays few card games; the
^general run never heard of poker, euchre, seven up, or pinochle. They have
a game similar to pinochle called
M
ItoyaI Bezique," but few know how to
play It
Generally there are two decks ot
cards in a section, and In a ehort time
I they ore so dog-eared and greasy, you
I can hardly tell the ace of spades from
the ace of hearts. The owners of these
i decks sometimes condescend to lend
them after much coaxing.
So you see, Mr. Atkins has his fun
mixed in with his hardships and, contrary to popular belief, the rank and
ifiie of the British army in the trenches
is one big happy family. Now in Virjginrk, at school, I was fed on old Mo
Guffy's primary reffder, which gave me
an opinion of an Englishman about
'equal to a 76 Minute Man's backed up
by a Sinn Fetner's. But I found Tommy to be the best of mates and a gentleman through and through. He never
thinks of knocking his officers. If one
makes a costly mistake and Tommy
pays with his blood, there is no general condemnation of the officer. He
Is Just pitied. It is exactly the same
as It was with the Light Brigade at
Balaclava, to say nothing of Galllpoll,
Neuve Chapelle and Loos, Personally
I remember a little incident where
twenty of us were sent on a trench
raid, only two of us returning, but I
will tell this story later on.
I said it was a big happy family, and
so it is, but as in all happy families,
there are servants, so in the British
army there are also servants, officers'
servants, or "0. S." as they are termed.
In the American army the common
name for them is "dog robbers." From
a controversy in the English papers,
Winston Churchill made the statement, as far as I can remember, that
the officers' servants in the British
forces totaled nearly two hundred
thousand. He claimed that this removed two hundred'thousand exceptionally good and well-trained fighters
from the actual firing line, claiming
that the officers, when selectipg a man
for servant's duty, generally picked the
man who had been out the longest and
knew the ropes.
But from my observation I find that
a large percentage of the servants do
go over the top, but behind the lines
they very seldom engage in ('igging
parties, fatigues, parades or drills.
This work is as necessary as actually
engaging In an attack, therefore I think
it would be safe to say that the allround work of the two hundred thousand is about equal to fifty thousand
men who are on straight military duties. In numerous instances, officers'
servants hold the rank of lance-corporals and they assume the same duties
and authority of a butler, the one
stripe giving him precedence over the
other servants.
There are lots of amusing stories
told of "O. S."
One day one ot our majors west into
the servants' billet and commenced
"blinding" at them, saying that his
horse had no straw and that he personally knew that straw had been Issued for this purpose. He called the
lance-corporal to account The corporal answered, "Bllme me. air, the
straw was issued, but there wasn't
enough left over from the servants'
beds; in fact, we had to use some, of
the 'ay to 'elp oat, sir."
*
It is needless to say that the servants dispensed with their soft beds
that particular night
Nevertheless it is not the fault of
the individual officer, it is just the survival of a quaint old English custom.
You know an Englishman cannot be
changed in a day.
But the average English officer is a
good sport. He" will sit on a fire step
and listen respectfully to Private
Jones' theory of the way the war
should be conducted. . This war is
gradually crumbling the once insurmountable wall of caste.
You would be convinced of this if
you could see King George go among
his men on an inspecting tour under
fire, or pause before a little wooden
cross in some shell-tossed field with
tes/s in his eyes as he reads the Inscription. And a little later perhaps
bend over a wounded man on a stretcher, patting him on the head.
More than once in a hospital I have
seen a titled Red Cross nurse fetching
and carrying for a wounded Boldler,
perhaps the one who in civil life delivered the coal at her back door. Today she does not shrink from lighting
his fag or even washing his grimy
body.
Tommy admires Albert of Belgium hecause he is not a pusher of men; he
leads them. With him it's not a case
of "take that trench," it is "come on
and we will take it."
It is amusing to notice the different
characteristics of the Irish, Scotch and
English soldiers. The Irish and Scotch
are very impetuous, especially when it
comes to bayonet fighting, while the
Englishman, though a trifle slower,
thoroughly does his bit; he is more
methodical and has the grip of a bulldog on a captured position. He is
slower to think; Hut is the reason why
he -never knows when he Is licked.
Twenty minutes before going over
the top the English Tommy will sit on
the fire step and thoroughly examine
the mechanism of his rifle to see that it
is in working order and will fire properly. After this examination he is satisfied and ready to meet the Boches.
But the Irishman or Scotchman sits
on the fire step, his rifle with bayonet
fixed between his knees, the butt of
which perhaps is sinking into the mud
—the bolt couldn't be opened with a
team of horses it is so rusty—but he
spits on his sleeve and slowly polishes
his bayonet; when this is done he also
is ready to argue with Fritz.
It is not ""necessary to mention the
colonials (the Canadians,.Australians
and New ZealandeiS), the whole world
knows what they have done for England.
The Australian ai<d New Zealander
is termed the "Abtac," taking the
name from the first letters of their official designation, Australian and New
Zealand army corps.
Tommy divides the German army
into three classes according to their
fighting abilities. They rank as follows: Prussians, Bavarians aad Saxons.
When up against a Prussian regiment it is a case of keep your napper
below the parapet and duck. A bangbang all the time and a war is on. The
Bavarians are little better, but the
Saxons are fairly good sports and are
willing occasionally to behave as genBritlah Geological Photos.
A committee of the British Association for the Advancement of Science
has been engaged for many years In
forming a national collection of photographs Illustrating the geology of the
British Isles. According to the last
report the collection now includes opward of 5,600 pictures. More than a
thousand of these were taken in
Yorkshire. A collectiod-of the same,
character has been made by the geological survey of Great Britain, which
has recently published a list of Its
Scottish pictures. Both the B. A. committee and the geological surrey offer
prints and lantern slides for sale. The
Toubridge Wells Natural History society offers prizes for photographs of
scenery Illustrating geological features.
—Scientific American.
tlemen and take it easy, but yon cannot trust any of them over long.
At one point of the line the trenches
were about thirty-two yards apart
This sounds horrible, but in fact it was
easy, because neither aide could shell
the enemy's front-line trench for fear
shells vwould drop into their own. This
eliminated artillery fire.
In these trenches when up against
the Prussians and Bavarians, Tommy
had a hot time of it, but when the Saxons "took over".it was a picnic; they
would yell across that they were Saxons and would not fire. Both aides
would ait on the parapet and carry on
a conversation. This generally consisted of Tommy telling them how much
he loved the kaiser, while the Saxons
informed Tommy that King George
was a particular friend of theirs and
hoped that be was doing nicely.
When the Saxons were to be relieved?
by Prussians or Bavarians, they would
yell this Information across No Man's
Land and Tommy would immediately
tumble into his trench and keep his
bead down.
If an English regiment was to be relieved by the wild Irish, Tommy would
tel] the Saxons, and immediately a volley of "Donner und Blitzens" could
be heard and it was Fritz's turn to get
a crick in his back from stooping, and
the people in Berlin would close their
windows.
Usually when an Irishman takes over
a trench, jusFbefore "stand down" In
the morning, he sticks his rifle over
the top, aimed in the direction of Berlin, and engages in what is known as
the "mad minute." This consists of
firing fifteen shots in a minute. He
Is not aiming at anything in particular
—just sends over each shot with a
prayer, hoping that one of his strays
will get some poor unsuspecting Frit*
in the napper hundreds of yards behind the lines. It generally does; that's
the reason the Boches hate the man
from Erin's isle.
The Saxons, though better than the
Prussians and. Bavarians, have a nasty
trait of treachery in their makeup.
Empey, questioning a German
prisoner, finds he's from New
York. The interesting Interview
is related in the next installment

Had 'Erri Framed.
On the wall in the president's office
at the Hotel Sever-in, there hang three
handsome framed personal letters addressed to the head of the Institution.
"Received them all in one day," said A.
Bennett Gates, "and they are so rare
that I have had them framed, for I
wish to preserve them. Such as these
do not come often to the hotel man."
The writer of each of the three
framed letters was grateful for some
courtesy or favor, or this or that,
which-pleased him during his stay as
a guest. None had a "kick" to register, which struck Mr. Gates as rather
odd, since half the rime of a hotel manager Is occupied in hearing the complaints of someone who feels himself
slighted in some particular. Three
thankful epistles in a day were almost
too much for the hotel president—In*

Use for Hemlock Bark.
Spent hemlock bark, which has been
used chiefly for fuel, may soon be important In felt manufacture. Experiments have shown that this bark can
be substituted for 80 per cent of the
basic material, now chiefly rag stock,
used in roofing felts. If the bark is
used for the 200,000 tons of felt made
in this country, annually, there will
be a saving, it is thought, of about
11,000,000 a year.

French Continue Nibbling.
-The French are continuing their
"nibbling" tactics along the line running northward from the Marne. Friday they swept the Germans back
from the environs of Villers-Cotterets
forest, southwest of Soissons, and held
by American troops in that sector.
A long ridge between the villages of
Mosley and Paesy-en-Valois was occupied and 265 prisoners were taken.
Further north near St. Pierre Algle,
the French positions we/e improved
by a local attack.
British Repulse Enemy Assault.
The British have repulsed an enemy
assault in the neighborhood of Merris,
near where Germans were driven back
e v t of Nleppe forest on Friday. The
British official statement mentions
heavy German artillery fire before
Amiens, near Albert north of the
Scarpa, near Arras, and in the region
of Festubert, northwest of Lens.
The official statement issued at Berlin says artillery firing has increased
between the Yser and the Marne,
which Includes virtually all of the active battle zone.

Unnecessary Intestines.
The human intestine seems to b e
partly a relic of prehistoric times,
largely useless in this modern day and
age.
The nselessness of the vermiform appendix, which is simply the
stump of what was once an important and functioning branch of the
alimentary canal, is well knowa. Recent operations in a London hospital
seem to indicate that a large part of

A third of a century ago the Firm of W. J. Dancer and Co. was founded. At the bottom of all the
plans which were laid at that time were certain
ideals of business^ administration, a certain sound
faith in the principle that honesty was the best and
only foundation upon which to buiid a successful retail business.
Thirty-three years ago the average merchant
was like a horse trader he got what he could sell
We believed then as surely as we believe now, that
there should be one price for all—and that a fair
profit only should be expected on what we had to
sell.
}#:
Coupled and interwoven with this principle, we
had in our hearts an unbounded faith in the future
of Stockbridge and its people. We believed in them.
We were convinced that they were highminded-intellegent people—who would know and appreciate
the value of honest merchan disc, fair prices and good
service.
Upon this basis we decided to cast our lot with
Stockbridge—to rise or fall with it and its people^"
but to give up not one iota of the principles with
which we started.
T h a i our confidence has not been misplaced—
and t h a t our ideas of honest methods were ri^ht
has been proven time and time again, For a business does not, a store does not grow and expand
fear after year on wrong principles.
However, we realize that without YOUR cooperation—without your hearty approval and si>pport-^we could not have grown and prospered as
we have. To you and your.faith in us is due the
greater measure of our success.
Realizing these things, in an effort to show our
appreciation, we are going to celebrate this anniversary of ouropening. You, our good friends, are
surely entitled to share in a celebration of this kind.

It is the B E S T
Newberry and Preparedness
.
Truman H, Newberry is no new convert to Preparedness.
He has preached it for twenty years,—he has practised what
he preached.
He stood for preparedness away back in 1896, when he
helped organize the Michigan Naval Brigade.
Aa Assistant Secretary of the Navy under Roosevelt he
urged preparedness. Speaking in New Orleans In 1907, he said:
"You can put It in the biggest type you have that we
must have a bigger navy, and I hope such enlargement
will come soon. It is for you people here to use your influence for more appropriations for the building of battleships and cruisers. There it no doubt that we shall
need them and the sooner they are built the better."
While Secretary of the Navy, Newberry contended for a
Merchant Marine at a preparedness measure.
"A latge number of merchant vessels will be required
in the event cf a aerious war," he pleaded.
He not only talked preparedness, but hs prepared.
He put the Navy on a sure foundation. On our entry Into
the war ft was the one branch of our national defense which
wee prepared.
He backs up his belief in preparedness by being in the service himself. His sons are in the service. His whole family is
serving.
i
Newberry and Preparedness mean the same thing.
Truman H. Newberry is prepared to give Michigan and the
nation wonderfully able service in the United States Senate.
