We were in the trenches, and the Germans began to make merry on Christmas eve, shout ing at us to come out and meet them. They sang songs (very well); ouv men answered by singing "Who were you with last night?"' and of, course "Tipperal-y (very tadly). I wis horrified at discovering somo oi out men actually had gone out, imbueii more with the idea of seeing the Ger man trenches than anything: else; they met half-way, and there ensued the giving of cigarettes and receiv ing of cigars, and they arranged (the private soldiers of one army and the private, soldiers of the other) at 48 hours' armistice.'- It was1 all most ir regular, but the Penisular and other wars will ; furnish . many ' such ex amples; eventually both sides were induced to return to their respective ISelgium Helpless Anyway Till Spring, 1,jTays Commission Haed oi Relief Still Very Urgent, According to Laiest Reports From Stricken Land How ?1 Americans Can Send Their Mite 'By ' W ILL IKUJlJSf ... :.( - l.

All Belgium depends ou Ameri can t'timl. Half of UeleJum Is never more than a week ahead of starvation. Often It has eome closer than that. Once tho province of Limbourg, remote and hilly, was Ktai'vlnu. In some communities the people had not eaten for two days, when one of our United States consuls managed to borrow from the Germans enough bread to keep the Hople alive until mi American shipment arrived to repay tho loau. Once Captain Lucey. the shipping agent In Holland, bud to borrow 10.000 tons of wheat from the Dutch government. . Uege and Hainuie nud historic Ghent were crying for bread, mid It was still several days before the next American ship was due at Rotterdam. This was a noble thing for Holland to do since the Dutch themselves are short on food. Yes; It la a race with hunger, and America, now that she has faced the starter, must win! This Is America's great and glorious part in the world war of 1914-13. That every American may have a personal chance to help some Belgian the Commission Kor Relief In Belgium has arranged its "parcel (lost plan." Any one who wants to send a package containing between twenty and tlfty pounds of nonpciishable food need only put a tag on tho package, address the tag to the nearest collection depot of the commission, stamp It In the regnlar way and drop it In the mail chute. If the giver puts ou the package tag his name and address, TOGETHER WITH THE LETTER "R," the money he has spent for stamps will be refunded.

K is iust the foam of old ocnu sons who are now living in 'tempera- trenches, but the enemy sang al! night, and during my watch they played "Home, Sweet Home,", and "God Save the King," at 2:30 a. m. : It was rather wonderful; the night was clear, cold, and frosty, and acror.s ' to our lines at this usually miserable hour of night came the sound of such tunes very well played, espacially by la man. with a cornet who is probnb- ly well known. Christmas day was very misty, and out came' those Germans to wish, us "A IJpapy Day," we 'wc.it out, told ; -thjin wa were :.t war with them, and that really they must play the game arm pretend to fight; they went back, but again attempted to come towards u.4, so we urea over ineir ncaas, me; fired a shot back to show they under stood, and the rest of the day paased quietly in this part , of the line, b-.ic ir. others a deal of fraternizing Tvent on.

It is really a great triumph for the church. It is a great hope for future peace when two great na tions, hating each other as foes have seldom hated, one side vowing eternal hate and vengeance and setting theiv venon to music, should on Christmns Day, and for all that the word im plies, lay down their arms, exchange smokes, and wish each other hap piness! Beyond all, this, the day it self was rendered impossible for wa.- by mist.
