“ Poor kid!” Charlie Brown ex­
claimed.
It was a grim business—
war!
"Sad— very sad!" the captain agreed.
"Hut perhaps he’ll pull through; and If
he doesn't— well! forgive me, Mr.
Brown. If I seem heartless— but re­

The captain thanked him; and they
said good-hy.
Charlie lingered for one last look
at the wounded Guy.
"I hope you pull through, old boy!"
he said; he knew, though, that Guy
could uot hear him. “ Do what you can

"B y then It may tie too late.” the

"Indeed!” the English officer ex­

One o f the privates on guard sud­

"Somethin’ crawlin' out there, cap­

The sergeant faced to the front,

"H e's cornin' this w ay!” another sol­
