SOLDIER'S LETTER
(Continued from page six)
form of a vicious, cruol, devastat
ing super-creature.
The army still had many soldiers
stationed at various places along the
road. At every place where we had
a chance to stop and talk with any
of the fellows, tha knly topic of
general Interest was the date of our
return to the U. S. A. I can assure
lou that It looked good to see so
much army, and U. S. Army at that.
I waa so sick of Navy blue that I
wanted to stay a week at every place
I saw a bunch of khaki congregated. !
Tbe nearer we got to Verdun the
more numerous the evidences of
American occupation becamfe. One
of the soldiers I was with called our
attention to what appeared to be a
frame building away over on the
countryside, "It was a Red Cross
building, hospital, you know," he
said, "and it was just finished when
a shell came thru the roof and simp
ly lifted the whole thing up. It was
just a chance shot, and could have
fallen any place else, but It happen
ed to pick that one particular spot."
We got Into Verdun sometime
about noon and asked some soldler3
where we could get something to eat.
They invited us to go over to the
enginetera' camp. "There were half
a dozen sailors out here a short time
ago, and stayed a week with us,"
one of them said. I should like to
hare done the sanfa, for wjjlle I'm
not keen on soldiering, I can have a
better time with the army than with
any other crowd I know of.
Nevertheless, Inasmuch as four of
the fellows wanted to go into the
city at once (for the station Ilea out
side the waifs) we all stayed togeth
er, and got a good meal at the Y. M.
C A. It was quite a good "Y" and
I was more favorably impressed with
the organization there than I had
been at any time before In France.
There was a curious exhileration
in being in Verdun. Tho in no wise
so badly destroyed as Rhelms it
waa more redolent of war. It was

still under military law and it Is
only a short time ago that it was
returned to Us civil status. Out of
Its prewar population of twenty or
thirty thousand, hardly moral than
a hundred remained. I cannot re-
memlier having seen a civilian.
Tt Is a true medieval city, built on
a hill, surrounded by a wall, divid
ed by a river Already an old town
In the 9th century, it was the birth
place of the French kingdom. Here
the three grandsons of Charlemagne
nret In A. D. 843 and divided their
father's empire among them, and
Charles II became the first king of
France. On tho low-lying hills that
at a distance of a few miles sur
round the city, the sam'e gtent of
whom I have spoken, has been at
work on, a bizarre scheme of land
scape gardening. He has used zig
zags and curves and angles until the
iwhole resembles a masterpiece of
Futurist art. Literally It is a fascl
nating exhibition of military con
Btmctlng. Here one can find things,
too. I am no collector of souvenirs;
hence I burdened not myself with
helmets, not even with a camouflag
ed one, mottled with yellow and
grefen; nor with German rifles, nor
shells, nor gas masks, nor boots with
feet still In them. Those last were
a temptation, I will admit There
was but one thing I wanted, but at
the last moment I did not have nerve
enough to take; that was a gold
tooth. A soldier I met at Verdun
had a couple. One can paw around
in almost any shell hole and find one
or more bodies whose sole sepu!

succeeding shell had scattered over
them. But when it came to picking
the dirt away from teeth to see
whether they were gold or not. I
balked. A grisly ghost story of
Marlon Crawford's called "Tho
Screaming Bkull" kept recurring to
me, and whether it was latent super
Btltlon or, inherent delicacy, neither
of which I had been aware of pos
sessing. I did not attempt any ama
teur dentistry.
I had promised the fellows at the
office to bring them some souvenirs
so 1 got a few coins and half a dozen
buttons off some German prisoners
who were clearing up barbed wire
entanglements In one of the fields
outsMe of Verdun. Thtore were eight
or nine of us including the soldier
with the German teeth, whom we had
picked up somehow and who had ap
pointed himself our unofficial guide.

pains to provide himself with plenty
of free cigarettes from the K. of C,

Well, we went thru that' crowd
like a flock of crows picking up the
final shrevta of what had been a fine
feast. The French guards looked on
with llstDose Interest. It was not an
edifying spectacle, but it added an
other souvenir to several others that
I have of things as thoy really hap

Following this we walked back to
the railroad station, and those of us
who were starting back for Paris
shook hands with those who were
staying, wished each other a speedy
release from sorvlce, or as one fol
low wittily termed It, from "serfloe,"
and said good-bye.
All this has been very poorly
