monies were over anil talked with the
Inhabitants. They hat been badly
treated. They were full of the stories
of their legitimate woes. One old num
said to nie: '

"I saw him. He was n major In
clinrge of a Canadian Held ambulance.
When I found him, In tile lingo build
ing which he had transformed Into a
hospital, he was busy superintending
the treatment of women and pitiful lit
tle children who had been gassed by
the Hoches In dellaueo of nil the laws
of humnnlty. There was one little fcl
low howling with terror. lie did not
wish to remain with the military, lie
had only known the German soldier!
V'Well. then tnkc him away, poor
little chap,' said the major, 'Ilrlng him
back three, times a tiny to be dressed.'
"Then thp major and I talked, of the
successful Canadian nttnek and of the
condition of the town when It had been
tnken. I( was not u pretty story. II
was. In fact, a terrible Indictment
against the lioche.
" They starved the civilians. The
only meat they gave then! In three-i
years was three dead unites. And nil
tho time their own olllcers were living
on the best,-'
"Then there was shortago7'
. " 'Oh. ye.-j, there was a shortngo; but
the German olllcers did Hot feel It.'
"'And their gther supplies? Your
line, fdr Instance medical supplies?'
"The major laughed,
" Come with me,' he snlil, 'and I'll
show you a field medical cart tlmt we
captured Just as they were driving It
off. It Is otlo of the piost wonderful
things I have ever seen.'
"Wc went l(i to the transport i,r''
and here we found something like n
Scotch cart with a eloscd-ln top, bear
ing the Itcd Cross on Its Mdes. The
major let down the back llap untl we
saw n series qf drawers, like nn en
larged dud-Index lllc cabinet. He
pulled one out.
"'Look nt that,' he said. 'There you
have most of the drugs we hove heen
