FRIDAY. 14th Jan.
January 5, 7.10 am.. According to Bexter's correspondent at the British Headquarters in France, the British are asizing every opportunity of securing wastage in the enemy ranks because it is realised that Germany, is rapidly approaching, if she has not already reached, the stage when she cannos replace losses. Therefore Kill se many Germans as Japanvia you can is now the slogan n the trenches. This was not always swatow, so in the game sense. For instance, Obristmas, 1914, was marked by a mutual trace, but during Christmasa, 1915, every enemy over- tore in the direction of fraternising was answered by a scream- ing shower of higa explosives. Mine, bomb, serial and artillery warfare are incessant, the trench weapons are seldom silent and the big gane never thoroughly cold. Of course the Germans reply, but wholly on the defensive, and as soon as we cease they cease. correspondent mentions that one of the party of bluejackets who recently visited the trenches was a petty officer from HMS. Natal, and he possibly owes his life to his visit to the trenches.
