From his converitalon we lenrned that he had recently come from England with a draft and had never been under fire, hence his nervousness. We convinced him that there was not much danger, and he appeared greatly relieved. , When we at last turned into the open road we were not so confident. On each side there had been a line of trees, but now, all that was left of them were torn and battered stumps. The fields on each aide of the road were dotted with recent shell holes, and we passed several In the road itself. We had gone about half a mile when a shell came whistling through the air and burst In a field about three hundred yards to our right Another soon followed this one and burst on the edge of the rood about four hundred yards In front of us.

Ills equipment,1 which he had taken off upon getting into the ambulance, was o strung out on the ground, and his rifle was in the ditch. -- duty as a member of Installment (TO BE CONTINUED) Traits of Bird Lovers.
