I hated all our Teuton foes, their hearts, their whisk ers and their toes; I hated Hindenburg and Bill, and Ludendorff, with right good will. From 10 o’clock till half past one! hated every lieastly Hun, and hoped his name might yet lie Mud; I ground my teeth and sweated blood. And so to- day«l'm feeling punk; there’s lassitude throughout my trunk; my head aches in a horrid way, 1 have no appetite for hay; a shooting pain is in my lung, and I have moss upon tongue, tlie gripes dis turb my ample waist,*my mouth is full of dark green taste, I don't suppose a Teu ton knew that f was bating, long hours through. And IO I realised today that all my hate was thrown away; alas, to waste a hundred weight of ail-wool-and- a-yard-wids hate I The Teutons have for many year iwoaked in hatred to their ears; they lapped up hatred from their birth; It fattened them, increased their girth; their kultnr has it for a base, it thrives in every Prussian place. Ho they can hate the hours away, and not be crumpled up next day. But hatred here eseme coarse and rude, for kindness was our infant food; it makes us billious,stick and sore, and life liecotnes the dreary bore.— Walt Mason.
