Could he but march between Ypres and Roulers his im pression would be lasting. Here for months and years enemy fought enemy without either side gaining an inch. Night after night and day after day tons of steel and lead was hurled back and. forth over the ground that at one time had been the garden spot of Bel gium.

Many of these never re turned, but it was -- always the op ponent who was responsible; perhaps they would fall Into the stagnant pools, in shell holes to drown, or sink into the mud to die without aid.

The little farm housesare gone as completely as though a tornado had torn them from their foundations and carried them away. "We messed at noontime by the road side. Two old Belgian women came down the way and stojiped upon a mound not far from us. Their hands moved in making the eign of the cross and their lips murmured prayers. I went to their side and found thatthey were gazing upon a broken crucifix of Christ. Th mound upon which we stood had been a church. They spoke little English. Surely w? -re there had been a church there was also a town, but where was it? In answer to the question the wom en gazed out over the shell holes. " 'Yes," said one, "before the war there was a town cf 500 people here, but it is gone.' She paused for a mo ment and gazed around, then pointed to a spot a hundred yards away. 'There was our home.' 'There wa? nothing to identify the spot that was now a mass of shell holes as formerly the home of these people. The little town had sunk into the ground as did many of its neigh bors.

I managed to get away with it until August when I was relieved to take charge of the tracing of lost and missent shipments In the property branch of the depot quartermaster's office. "The system of shipping supplies at first was based on a daily automatic olan whereby each division would re ceive each day the same number of rations and the same amount of sup plies, according to the strength of the various divisions. Tho greatest obstacle overcome by this system was the transportation of the supplies. Trains made up each day were for warded to the different destinations. These trains were composed of a cer tain number of cars or rations, medical. engineer, ordnance and signal corps supplies and several cars of miscella neous supplies, principally organiza tion property and personal bapeage of the officers of organizations attached to the divisions. "This system was effective for 20 divisions, but the number of fighting men was constantly increasing, so this system had to be abandoned. It was replaced by the installing of railheads and divisional areas, one railhead for each area. The supplies were shipped to these railheads and distributed by the officers In charge to the various divisions and organizations. Supply officers knew exactly where to go for their supplies and each railhead officer knew what organizations were to be supplied by his railroad. Supplies were distributed by truck or narrow guage railroad. The supplies were taken as near to the trenches as practical and healthy. Fritz some time would blow up the boys' dinner, but it was not an every day occurrence. -"Today the mess sergeant bought three hogs, each weighing around 150 pounds, which we will have for our Thanksgiving dinner. We have no butchers In the company, so the cooks, the company mechanic, top sergeant, company clerk and bugler proceeded to kill, scrape and clean the big item for the dinner on Thursday. The ac counts of the slaughter are sidesplit ting. First, the hogs were strung up by the hind logs in regular slaughter style. They stuck each pig and hit it on the head with an ax. Of course, all three pigs died, but gee whiz, what a hard death. Then they undertook to scrape them. The water was scalding hot. which was tiptop. The first pig was doused in and left in tho water for about five minutes. When they tried to scrape him, they found he was almost cooked and he wouldn't scrape worth a cent. The top sergeant came to the rescue by salvaging several straight edged razors and Mr. Pig was given a nice close shave, leaA'ing the roots in the hide. (The boys will cuss at dinner when they strike those bristles). Then they held a council of war and decided not to leave the next one In so long. That process proved more successful.
