together by stiff spade-work. At this
period of the year the rrequeni raina and wet mists drench them to the skin, while the mud In which they lie soon changes their uniforms from light blue to a color which is indistinguishedable from the fiefd-gray of the Germans or the khaki of the Brit
ish. At the same time, the"ir food, which, of course, has to be eaten cold, is often spoilt by the foul water penetrating their haversacks, and their small supply of water or other drink, is often exhausted long before they are relieved. DRIVE BACK TEUTONS
