But his great advantage lies in this, that he is independent both of main roads and paths, since for him *toute contree east battue"; and that he can travel fast and casily over marshes, Jakes, and rivers, even when they are but slightly frozen. For this reason the ski ranner has no equal in winter at soont ing, at carrying messages, or at harrying a flying foe..
With the passage of the years the milk tary ski-runner bas, no doubt, had to change his tactics. In the days of muzzle Jondors he had little to fear from bullets. With the advent of modern rifles he must be more circumspect, for any patch of colour on his clothes and equipment makes him a &ae target against a background of
