Sometimes a sumy sheti falls in the mikils of one of these guriens. and then it is the saucepan in the vegetables instead of the vegetables in the saucepan. [The French have nick-mined big shölla "marmites,” which cans saucepans.] Happily there is better manure to be had than the Gerninn shells.

At the spot where the headquarters of this divisions are established there in a little huta sentry-box, rather to shelter the man on sentry duty, This entry box was found 21 the JORN D. BUMPHREYS & SON attic at the Mairie. It was painted with the Geman colours hick, wishened, and dated from the Chur- sun ocupation, 1971. It was re- painted with the French colours, and is now sheltering a brave French sol. dier. However, the inscription writ ten thereon by a German sentry forty-four years ago haa not been as
