THE ALL-FOURS RECORD.

A correspondent, of Collier's, who was shell fire on Hill 212 in the battle Of the Ourcq. says: “I think it was the ninth or tenth shell that for the fraction of an instpnt fully convinced

me that I was through. The explosion turned me quite over where I lay flat, all huddled up. At the end of 45 or 50 minutes the captain decided that we might duck, one at a time. We rolled out of the shell hole on all fours for an old wall 100 yards away. I don’t know what the all-four record for 1(X) yards is, but I think I hold it."—Outlook. ,
