Over the Top.
On my second trip In tho trendies
nur ofllcrr wns limiting hi round of
Itmpcctlnn, mid we received Hie eliror
til now Hint nt four In the morning
wo went to go over the top nnd lake
tint Ocrinnn front-linn trench. .My lienrt
turned to lend. Then the olllcer cur
ried on ullli IiIn Instructions. To tliu
liest of my memory I reciill them ns
follows : "At eluven n wiring pnrty will
o out In front nud nit Iiuich through
nir lutrlied wlro for lint piiNKngo of
troopN In the morning. At two o'clock
our nrtlllery will open up with nu In
tense hoinhitrdiiicnt, which will hint un
til four. Upon tho lifting of th bur
rnuo the first of tho three waves will
go over." Then ho left. Homo of the
ToiiiiuleN, flmt getting permission from
Ihn aurgennt, went Into the miichlnii
gunners' dugout nud wrote letter
'lionr", nnylng thnt tn tho morning they
at ere going over tho top, nnd nlso thnt
If tho letter renched their dcstlnntlou
It would tnrnn thnt tho writer hud been
killed.
These Icttern wero turned over to
tho cnptnln with Instructions to mnll
nnino In th event of tho writer's being
hilled. Homo of the men mndo out
their will In their pny books, under
tho cnpllou, "Will and Lust Testa
ment." Then tho nerve-racking wnlt com
menced. Every now nnd then I would
glance at tho dlnl of tny wrist wntch
nnd wnn surprised to seo how fnut the
ml nu tea pained by. About flvn minuted
to two I cot nervous uniting for our
gun to open up. I could not tnkit my
ye from my wnttdi. I crouched
ngnlnst the pnrnpet nnd strained my
tuusclcs In n dentlillko crip upon my
rifle. Ai tho hand on my wntch
allowed two o'clock n blinding red flnro
Hunted up tho sky In our renr, then
thunder, Intermixed with n iihnrp. whit
tling Round In tho nlr over our heads.
Tho shells from our guns were speed
ing on their wny townrd tho Oermnn
line. With ono accord tho men
aprnng up on tho flro step nnd looked
over tho top In tho direction of tho
Oermnn trenches. A lino of bursting
holt lighted up No Man' T.nnd. Tho
lln was terrific nnd tbv ground trcm
Med. Ttien, hlnti nbovo our head wo
could henr a sighing tnonn. Our big
toy behind tho lino had opened up
nnd 0.2 nnd IMnch kTicIIh commenced
dropping Into tho Ocrinnn linen. Tho
flash of tho gunii behind tho linen, tho
nerenrn of tho shell through tho nlr.
' nnd tho flnro of them, bunding, wax n
upectaclo thnt put Pain' grenteiit din
play Into tho shade Tho constant
pup, pup, of Oermnn tnnchtno guns nnd
nn occasional rnttlo of rifle tiring gnvo
mo tho Impression of n hugo nudlenco
npidnudlng tho work of tho batteries.
Our IB-pounders wcro destroying tho
Oermnn bnrbed wire, whllo tho heavier
ntuff wnn demolishing their trenchen
and bashing In dugouta or funk holes.
Then Frltx got busy.
Their shells went nercnmlng over
tiend, nlmed In tho direction of tho
Hart from our hnttorlcs. Trench mor
tnrn started dropping "Minnies" In
our front line. Wo clicked sevcrnl ens
unltlo. Then they nuddcnly conned.
Our nrtlllery had taped or silenced
tlicm.
During tho bombnrdment you could
almost rend a nowspupor In our trench,
tiometlmca In tho flnro of u shell-burst
tt mnn'fl body would bo nllhouctted
against tho pnrndoa of tho trench nnd
It appeared llko a hugo monster. You
could hardly hear yourself think. When
nn order wna to bo panned down tho
trench you had to yell It, using your
linnda nn a funnel Into tho enr of tho
man sitting next to yon on tho flro atop.
In about twenty mlnutea a gcneroui
rum lasuo wna doled out. Aftor drink
ing tho rum, which tasted llko varnish
and acnt a shudder through your
frame, you wondered why they mndo
you wnlt until tho HftlngW tho bnr
rago beforo going over. At ten min
ute to four word waa pnsscd down,
Ten mlnutea,to goP Ton minute
to live I We wero shivering nil over.
My lega felt aa If thoy wero asleep.
Then word wna passed down: "First
vrnvo get on and near tho sailing lad
ders." Thcso wero amnll wooden Inddcra
which wo hnd plnccd ngnlnNt tho pnru
tot to ennblo us to go over tho top on
tho lifting of tho bnncngo. "Lnddirs of
Jcnth" wo called thorn, nnd veritably
thoy were.
Beforo a chnrgo Tommy la tho po
litest of men. There la novcr any push
ing or crowding to bo first up thcso
ladders. Wo crouched nround tho bnao
of tho Inddcra wnltlng for tho word
to go over. I wna sick nnd faint, nnd
wna pulling nwny nt nn unllghtcd fag.
Thon enmo tho word, "Throo nilnutefl
to go; upon th lifting of tho bnrrngo
nnd on tho blast of tho whistles, 'Over
tho top with tho best o' luck nnd give
thotn hell.'" Tho famous phrnao of
tho western front. '-N'0 Jonah plirnso

iiioous If you are lucky enough to como
back you will bo minus nn arm or a
leg. Tommy bates to bo wished tho
best of luck; so, when peace Is de
clared, If It over Is, and you moot a
Tommy on the street, Just wish him the
best ef luck nnd duck tho brick that
follows,
I glanced again at my wrist wntch.
We all wore thorn and you could hardly
CftUjU "aMM" for doing ao. jt waa
mlnnfn A four. I could seo tfio mind
tnuvo to tho twelve, then n dead si
lence, It hurt. ISveryono looked up
to noo what hnd happened, but not for
long. Hhnrp whlntlo blasts rung out
nlong Iho trench, nnd with n cheer tho
men Ncnimliled up tho bidders. Tho
bullets wero cradling ovnrhend, nnd
occasionally n miirhlno gun would rip
and tear tho top of tho Handling para
pet. How I got up thnt bidder I will
never know. Tho first ten feet out In
front wiih iigony. Then wo pnssed
through limes In our bnrbed wlro. I
know I wiim running, but could feel no
motion below tho wnlst. Patches on
tho ground seemed to Hunt to tho rear
an If I were on n treadmill nnd iiccu
ery wns rushing pnst me. The Our
miins bad put n bnrrngo of shrapnel
across No Mini's I.aud, nnd you could
henr tho pieces nlnp tho ground about
you.
After I had passed our barbed wlro
nml irotten Into No Man's Land a
Tommy nbout fifteen feet to my right
front turned nround nnd looking In my
direction, put tits hand to his mouth
nnd yelled something which I could not
mnkn out on account of tho notno from
tho bursting shells, Then hn coughed,
Mumbled, pitched forward nnd lay still.
Ills body seemed to float to tho renr
of me. I could henr shniti crocks In
tho nlr nbout inc. Thcso wero cnused
by pnsslng rlllo bullets. Frequently,
to my right nnd left, little spurt of
dirt would rlno Into the nlr nnd n rico
chet bullet would whl no on Itn wny.
If n Tommy should seo one of these
little sinirts In front of him, ho would
tell the nurso nbout It Inter. Tho
crossing of No Mun'n Innd remains n
blnnk to mo.
Men on my right nnd left would
atumblo nnd fall. Homo would try to
get up, while others remnlned huddled
nnd motionless. Then smnnhed-up
barbed wlro enmo Into view nnd
seemed curried on n tide to the renr.
Huddenly, In front of mo 'loomed n
bnshed-ln trench nbout four feet wide.
Queer-looking forms llko mud turtles
wero SoHinbllng up Its wall. One of
these forms seemed to slip nnd then
rolled to tho bottom of the trench. I
Men pod across this Intervening npnee.
tiio man to my icu seemed io pnuso in
midair, then pitched bend down Into
tho Oermnn trench. I Inughed out loud
In my delirium. Upon nllghtlng on tho
other sldo of tho trench I enmo to with
a sudden Jolt. Illght In front of mo
loomed n glnnt form with a rifle which
looked nbout ten feet long, on the end
of which seemed seven bnyoncts. Theso
flashed In tho nlr In front of mo. Then
through my mind flnshed tho admoni
tion of our bnyonot Instructor back In
Illlghty. lie had snld, "whenever you
get In n chnrgo nnd run your bayonet
up to tho hilt Intoen Oermnn tho Fritz
will fall. Pcrhups your rlflo will bo
wrenched from your grnsp. Do not
wnsto tlmo, If tho bnyonot Is fouled
In his equipment, by putting your foot
on his stomach nnd tugging ut tho rlflo
to extricate tho bayonet. Hlmply
press tho trigger nnd tho bullet will
freo It.; In my present situation this
wns the logic, but for tho llfo of mo
I could not remember how ho hnd tojd
mo to get my bnyonet Into tho Oer
mnn. To mo this wns tho pnrnmount
Issue. I closed my eyes nnd lunged
forwnrd. My rlflo wns torn from my
hands, I must hnvo gotten tho Oer
mnn been ii so ho hud dlnnppcnred.
About twenty feet to my left front
wan n hugo l'nisstnn nenrly six feet
four Inches In height, n fine specimen
of physical mnnhood. Tho bnyonet
from his rlflo wns missing, but ho
clutched tho barrel In both hands nnd
wns swinging the butt nround Ids bond.
I could almost henr tho swish of tho
butt passing through tho nlr. Threo
llttlo Tommies wero cngnged with him.
They looked llko pigmies nlongiddo of
tho Prussian. Tho Tommy on tho left
was gradually circling to tho renr of
his opponent. It wns a funny sight to
seo them duck tho swinging butt nnd
try to Jab blm nt tho snino tlmo. Tho
Tommy nearest mo received tho butt
of tho Ocrmnn's rlflo In n smashing
blow below tho right tcmplo. It
smashed his hend llko nn eggshell. Ho
'pitched forward on his sldo and n con
vulsive shudder run through his body.
Meanwhile tho other Tommy hnd
gained tlio rear of tho Prussian. Sud
denly about four Inches of bnyonot
protrudod from tho throat of tho Prus
sian soldier, who etaggored forward
and fell. I will never forget tho look
of blank astontshment that caino over
his face.
Then something hit mo In the left
shoulder nnd my left sldo wont numb.
It felt ns If n hot poker wns being
driven through me. I felt no pnln
Just a sort of nervous shock. A bny
onet hod pierced mo from the rear, I
foil backward on tho ground, but wna
not unconscious, bocnuso I could seo
dim objects moving nround mo. Then
a flush of light In front of my eyes nnd
unconsciousness. Something hnd hit
mo on tho hend. I hnvo novor found
out whnt It wno.
I dreamed I wna being tossed nbout
In nu open boat on n heavlug sea and
oponcd my oyes, Tho moon was shin
ing. I was on a stretcher being enr
rlpd down ono of our communication
trenches. At tho ndvnnccd flrst-ntd
post my wounds wcro dressed, nnd
then I wns put Into nn amb'ulnnco nnd
sent to ono of tho bnso liosnltnls. Tho
