RICHMOND MAN

Continued From Page One. the firing of the "French 75's," and the sounding of the siren by fire trucks, and in passing I might add that tke firemen over here wear fancy blue and red shirts and large brass helmets. I'll tell you more about them at some other time. "One morning as I was leaving the hotel where three of us fellows were staying, the "Grand Kannon" opened up and after three or four shells had landed, I walked across to the main boulevard. Just as I was nearing the corner where I turned into this wonderful street I heard the beat of a drum. At first I thoukht it was a regiment just in or returning to the front. But as I turned into the boulevard I saw a solitary policeman, dressed In his fancy blue uniform, beating this drum that I had heard. Behind him came a gang of boys all yelling as loud as they could and making this new work of the policeman very embarrasing indeed. Behind a blushing countenance, Mr. Policeman wore a broad grin and he too was beginning to see the funny side of the situation, when he stopped on the corner to give a "drum solo" he burst out into a hearty laugh. Here is where the gang of boys had their fun'. More Shells Coming. "But what was he doing? He was merely announcing that a few more shells were on their way from Hun territory and for us to be on the look out. While he was performing on the drum, two shells dropped less than 4 blocks away. I rather think that Mr. Policeman was right. During the entire performance a crowd of men and women were gathering near by at a small newspaper stand, eager to grasp

a bit of news. It was at this particu

lar time that the big Boche Push was on business at the paper stand was

halted for a moment or so, while we

all enjoyed this unexpected recital on

behalf of the Police department. As

the entire crowd was enjoying a good laugh, the policeman, drum, and boys

all went down the street; to "entertain" the people farther down the street.

"My experience, and I think that it Is the same with all others, with the exception of the hysterical classes of people, is that in my first air raid I went right out into the middle of th street and 3tarted to look up to see if I could see anything. "That night the Zepp' raid was on and after getting 'picked' on the head by a piece of glass I 'took cover.' My next raid I was less inquisitive, and I let the Hun air men alone. But after you have been in a few you don't pay any attention to them. "Of course the old people always 'take cover but business goes on 'as usual.' in the most of instances, when the first warning of .an air raid is given the managers of the Grand

Opera ask the audienec to leave and I have been there when the same was done. A murmur of disapproval runs over the great crowd of several thousand, but in a few minutes the strains of a wonderful opera have died away and the spacious building is darkened. In regard to the other theatres in town it is optional with the people whether they leave or not. It is indeed a rare case when a person leaves the theatre. I shall never forget one night in London during an air raid when bombs ldnded on both sides of a theatre in which I happened to he at the time. After the second bomb

had found its mark, some Tommle away up near the roof yelled out, 'Try it again Fritz. The entire audience enjoyed a good laugh and the show continued. . . "One night four of us fellows walked over to the Latin quarter of Paris, to a little restaurant that is noted for ita 'American Cook.' We has just f inished our -meal and as we were leaving the place we heard the '75's' and we knew that 'Old Fritz was on the way over. It was a beautiful moonlight night almost as clear as day

and here we were nearly four miles

from 'home.' As we walked alon? those world famous boulevards, we passed a little group of people sitting on the stone benches along the sidewalks singing or humming some old familiar tune. Our 'journey' took U3 through a park.' Here and there were boys just out of the trenches, sitting around singing some trench ditty, and hundreds of people out strolling around, and all the time the '75's' were putting up a terrible barrage and hundreds of shells were bursting in the air. The French aeroplanes were on the job and . the whirr of dozens of machines could be heard as we continued on our way. Old Fritz finally succeeded in getting two or three of his large Gothas over the barrage fire, but on their return they were 'picked off. Spirit is Wonderful. "The spirit of the French people is wonderful, and the spirit in which they look at the Big Gun was best illustrated I think by the little drum incident -to which I have already referred. When the present 'Big Push was just starting the majority of the people wore a look of seriousness, but when the initial drive failed to break the British front, that look changed from one of seriousness to one expressing complete confidence. And then within 48 hours from this time the news reached Paris that the

French 'Poilu' were fighting side by side of the British 'Tommies,' and thj

people in the great French capital 'carried on as usual.' -The people believe in their army and its leaders, and even now after nearly four years of war the people salute on street with uncovered head every time a regiment or company of French 'Poilu' march down the street. "I shall never forget a little incident that happened one morning not so long ago. It occurred in Paris and as I walked down one of the principal avenues I heard the roll of army drums. Down the street a little distance marched a complete regiment of French soldiers, with the Tricolor

floating in the breeze. Here they were with full equipment a five set of boys, the defenders of France and the world. They had passed by and an old Frenchman who had been standing next to me as we had watched the boys go by, said to me, 'I have lost my fifth boy but gladly would I

give five more if I bad them.' The tears were starting to trickle down his face when he said, 'They shall not Pass, and this, today is the watch work of all France. 'They shall not Pass," meaning that the Huns shall not break through. "From what I have seen of . France, she is far from being 'bled white and the spirit ot our sister republic is wonderful, and as Clemenceau said the other day, "With France, it is a war to the finish, and bo it is. "Must close for this time, I am feel

ing fine, getting good food and plenty of sleep, and at the present time

'safe.' "LELAND FISHBACK, Air Service, Hdq. A. S. S. 0. S.. U. S. A. P. O. No. 717. A. E. E. France. Lieutenant Leland Fishback."
