Portland, Oregon, July 30 (United
Press) No Man's Land is no place
for a nervous man.
To the frightened soldier in a shell
pit, every bush is an enemy, every
noise an attack.
Such are the conclusions of W. D.
Sidebottom, now on the battlefront
of France. Judge George J. Cameron,
of Portland, today has a letter from
Sidebottom discribing his front line
experiences. .
"So far 1 am alive and well, al
though I have had two or three ex
citing nights in No Man's Land. This
game at hide and seek in the dark
with life at stake is rather uncanny
and a great strain on your nerves.,
especially if you are selected to be an
advance man for a raiding party.
"It makes the hair curl and the
pulse beat - If one is imaginative it
is fatal, for every bush appears to be
art enemy. . When they see you first
bombs and shells come thick and fast
'Causalties are light however, and a
few always unfortunate.
' Sidebottom says the British soldiers
'are anxiously awaiting the arrival of
VI United States troops 'on' the battle
3, .front The Americans will get an en
ju fthuaiastic welcome Jie added.- .
