Hut' wip Canadians are contemptuous of the clement!., apparently indifferent. They reply to commiserating remants but Fritz has it Just as bad as wo do." Utterly unemotional, the Canadians accept orders for rest and rr.frv 1,1 ' f. FO oer the parapet.

It was after the' Canadians had stormed and cap tured the German trenches. A staff captain stopped and questioned the serceant. rwnlin ). t.. - was direct from a hot action, and:' wounded and tired, he answered an Jt questions with the same careful pre' t ciMon that might be observed in a courtroom when a star witness was on the stand. f "Did the Germans quit?" was asked. "No, sir." "Did they put up a hard fight?" "No. they rough r.iirly well. sur rendering w hen cornened." "Were the prisoners glad to be enp- fured?" "I'd hardly say that." With group of officers I stood by the roadside while relief was going; on. One column was going in, one coming out. The fresh column was fairly immaculate as to uniforms and equipment. The other was covered with mud from bead to foot. But the 'Spirit in both was identical. Jokes passed from one column to the other. "Hello, Mickey." yelled an outgoing Xlaple Leafer to one of his brothers going into action as they came abreast, "were'ye going?" "I dunno, Bill," was the reply, "but I think there's a war on somewhere." The condition of the foreign troops is most splendid. They are certainly well fed. The Canadian field forces not only have the best staples but they have also plenty of "palate teasers," In the shape of sauces, .pickles and other dainties to break the monotony ofj regular fare. The relation bet wen the Canadian officers and men is similar to that so often marked In. "the French army. There is a cordial understanding between both. Everywhere I found the Canadians confident of the outcome and expres sion of the Vancouver boys summing up the common belief "It's merely a question of time. We've got Fritz's number."
