'"Now for the flrowor&ti, and I know
they'll lie good and plenty.' Tliey were.
"When we arrived nt the Run pits
the buttery cninnmwler. Hie Borxennt
iimjor and CtiR'ioll were UnltlnB for us.
Wo fell In line and the tuncrnl nmrch
to hrlKnde headquarter started.
'. "Arriving at headquarters the bat
tery commander win the first to be
Interviewed. ThlbA'M behind closed
doors. From tho ronrlni! and exp1o
'slons of Old I'epnrr It sounded as if
. rnw meat was being thrown: to the
Hons. CnsRell, Inter, described It s
soundlnfr liko a bombing raid. In about
two minutes; the officer reappeared.
The sweat was pouring from his forfr.
licnd, and his fnce wan the color of a
beet. . Ho was - enarchh.'i&i As he
pusscd the cnpialn he jerked his thumb
- in the direction, cf the lion's den anil
went out. Then the captain went In.
: nnd the Hons were once again fed.
The captain stayed uliout twenty mln
utes und cnino out. I couldn't see his
face, but the droop In Ills shoulders
was enough. lie looked like a wot hen.
"The door o( the genernl' room
. opened and Old Pepper Ntood In the
doorway. With a roar ho shouted:
"'Whlrti one. of ..you. .lei ,CnsseU3
. D n me, get your heels together
when I speak t Come In here !'
"CaRseli started to sny, 'Yes sir.
"Hilt Old Pepper roured, 'Shut up!'
"Cussell eimie out In live minutes.
He said nothing, but as ho passed me
lie put his tonguo into Ills check mill
winked, then, turning to the closed
door, he stuck his thumb to his nose
nnd left.
"Then the sergeant major's turn
came.: He .didn't come out our way.
Judging by the roaring,. Old Pepper
imiRt hnve eaten him.
, "When the door opened and the gen
eral beckoned to me, my knees started
to play 'Home, Sweet Home' agulnst
each other.
"My Interview whs very short.
'.'Old Pepper glared nt me when I
entered, and then let loose.
" 'Of course you don't know anything
uliout It. You're .tust llko the rest.
Ought to huvc n nursing bottle around
your neck nnd n nipple In your teeth.
Soldiers by gud, you turn my stom
ach to- look at you. Win this war,
when England semis out such snmplt'K
1 ns I have In ttiy brlgiidcl Not likely t
Now, sir, Itell me what yon don't know
about tills iiffnlr. Spenk up.out with
H. Don't be gaping nt me llko a llsh.
Spit It out.' ''
"I stammered, 'Sir, I know absolute
ly nothing.';
"'That's easy to see,' ho roared;
'that si upld fnce tells me that. Shut
up.-. Get out; hut I think you arc a
d d liar Just the same. Buck to
your buttery.'
"I suliited and mndc hiy exit.
"That night the cnptnln sent for 9.
With fear and trembling we went to
his dugout. He was alone. After sa
luting we stood nt attention In front
of him and waited. Ul say was short, i
"'Don't you two ever get 11 Into your I
heuds that Morse Is a dead language.
I've known It for years. The two of
yon hud better get rid of Hint nervous
tiiiblt of tipping triinmulttcrs; It's dun- ;
gerous. Tlmt's nil.' '. i
"We sultited, und were just going out '
tne door of the dugout when the cap- !
tain called up Imrk and sulci: I
"Smoke Goldllnkes? Yes? Well.
there are two tins of litem on my ilife. I
Uo buck to the Imttt-ry, ami keep your
tongues between your teeth. L'nder
etuiitlT "We understood.
"For five weeks afterwards our but
tery did nothing hut extra fatigues.
We were satlslled and so were, the
men. It was worth It to put one over
on Old Pepper, to say nothing of the
Injury caused to Krll' feelings."
When Wilson hud finished Ills story
I looked up nml the dugout was
Jammed. An artillery enptuia and two
officers had also entered' and stayed
for the tnlsh. Wilson spat out nn
enormous quid of tobacco, looked up,
miw tile captain, and got ns red ns u
carnation. The captain smiled and
left. Wilson whispered to me:
"Illltue me, Ynnk, I sec where I click
for ernclflilon. Thar eaptnln Is the
same ne that chucked us Ooldflakes
In his dugout and here I have been
chucking me weight about In his
hearing.' " "
Wllwm never clicked his rruclllxlnn.
Quite contrast to Wilson. w nn-

otner chai'iicler In our brigade named
Scott; we called lilin "old Siottj" on
account of his ago. He was fifty-seven,
although looking forly. "Old Scons''
hud been born In the Northwest and
had served in the Northwest Mounted
police, lie wits a typical cowpnurliei
and Indian fighter nnd was a dead shol
with the ride, ami took no pains It:
dlsgulso this fact from us. lie used U,
take euro of Ids rifle as if It wore a
huby. In his spare moments you could
nlways see him' cleaning It or polish
ing the vtock. Woe hillde the im'iti
who by mistake, happened to E'M hold
of this rlllc; he soon found out his
error. Scott wiis as deaf as u mule,
and It wiiB amusing ut pai-ndo to water,
him In the ninmtal of urms, slyly
glancing out of the corner of ids eye
nt the 1111111 nc?U to him 1o see what
the order was. llow he passed the
doctor vim u mystery to us ; he nuiit
have blulTeil his way through, because
he certainly was Itul -pendent. Beside
III Ul the Foiirlb of July looked like
Good Friday. Uo wore at the time ri.
large sombrero, hail 11 Mexican stock
saddle over his tdnmldcr, a lariat 011
his nriii, and 11 "fort.v-lhv" liniiglng
from his hip. Dumping this pnraplier
nalin on the floor he went up to the
recruiting officer nnd shouted: "I'm
from 'America, west of the Rockies,'
nnd want to join your il d army.
I've got no use for a (lei-man and can
shoot some. .At Scotland Yard (bey
turned me down; said I was deaf and
so 1 am. I don't hunker to ship In with
a d d iiiud-crunelilug outfit, but the
cavulry's full, so I guess this regi
ment's better than none, so trot out
your papers and I'll sign 'em." He told
them he was forty nod slipped by. 1
wus on recruiting servlco at the time
he applied for enlistment.
It was Old ftootty's great ambition
to be a sniper or "body sitatcher," as
Mr. Atkhis. calls It. The day that lie
was detailed as brigade sniper be cele
brated his appointment b. blowing the
whole platoon to fags.
Being a Ynnk. Old Scottv took n lik
ing to tne und used In spin some great
yarns about the plains-, and the whole
pluHHin would drink these In and ask
for liioro. Ananliis was a rookie com
pared with liliu.
he evpliilnsinutt and discipline
could Jot agree,- lint the officers all
liked lilin. cyn If he was hard to uain
nge, so when he was detailed us a
sniper a sigh of relief went up from
tho unicorn' loess.

The $5000 5-ton truck isn't any better than a Maxwell.
It's merely bigger. That's all. And you can own 5
Maxwells for the price of one reliable 5-ton truck.
The five Maxwells will do more work, carry more
goods, carry them faster, serve more uses at less cost.
How good these Maxwells are is shown by this great
figure: 99.6 perfect a verdict taken from service
records covering 6600 .Maxwells now in use. -$100
less than any other truck of similar capacity
in tlie world.
