Moving heavy nun on crowded roads at night when it is raining is anything but easy. We had to move at night so the German. air planes would not see us. As long as wc went ahead though we could stand it- It would have been a whole lot harder to retreat. We moved up once Jn the day time during the drive and that night German bombing (lanes dropped a few bomufe at us. They didn't get anyone but came close enough to make some of the fellows glad they haa. plenty of In su ranee. They tried us out another time with bombs but missed again. IC is quite an experience to have bomb ing planes flying around over you. Yuu can hear them but can't see them so naturally a person believes the ma chines are right over his head and the bombs meant for him. We had lots of fun though and everybody gathered plenty of souvenirs- We had German guns, helmets, buttons and belts. The belt buckles have a crown and the words, "Gott mit Una,'' on them. Gott seems to have deserted them and come over to our side ai present. The allies have them on the run how and will never let up until Jt is' aver.5.. :i .

The first time we came to the front we usually had two or three gas alarms every night to give us some thing to talk about We didn't use very mild language, either- Frita would drop a shell or two some where In our neighborhood and about that time some automobile would start honking, trying to get through on a blocked road.

Nearly 1.600 messages carried by pigoons have passed through head quarters of the naval pigeon service. A British seaplane sent the follow ing message In duplicate by two pige ons at 7.24 a. m. one day: "Am down off . Rough sea." Both pigeons brought the message in at 8 a. in. and by 8. SO a. m. a ves sel had been sent to the plane's as sistance. On another occasion the crew of a flying boat found Itself In difficulties at sea and sent a pigeon with an ap peal for help. There was a strong head-wind against which the bird had to battle. He fought his way homeward until he had crossed the coastline; but hie ex ertions proved too much for him, and he fell dead within a fonr miles of home. The message was delivered, however, and the crew of the flying boat was saved. Naval statistics .show pigeons suc ceed In delivering 95 per cent of mes sages entrusted to them.
