HOW TO TAKE A TRENCH.

Consor's Comments on Amunë ng Lotter.

ACorporal in France, writing to his brother, who is training in England ways— We have been working fine slut a week, so wa sro going back to the trenches “fur

a zest.

Wo are quite ready to meet the Germans again; we bare scrubbed our entranching tool handles and polished out bayonot scabbarda, cleaned our equipment," dubbined our boute, and all o' us have our cap badges in rat caps. Wo have been inspected by all the generals in the Army, and Sir John French is linging soms more to inspect us on Monday. Wo are giving our entranching tool handles au extra scrub for this.

You'll be surprised when you get out bere, but I don't think you will be wanted. We shall most likely haink the jub this next week. We es presens nms by numbers well enough now to take a really serious part in the fighting.

There is going to be some keen work done next week; only yesterday one of par bomb throwers put three of our men in an excess of zeal. That's only practising Heaven knows what will happen when he really gets to work.

You don't know how to take a tranch, do you? Quite simple. Sumalody goes in front-and cuts the barbod wits, than the bomb throwers throw a lot of bombs into the trench, and then the rest advance and tako the trench. It's best to select an anocoupied trench for this pastime.

It is Sunday to-morrow, and we de ant have pack drill, so I shall du a bit of washing I read the 4ther day, "Toning can march better with his pack on than without." Our C. O. must have read this also. It will be a bad day for the writer of aam when I drop across hita. It will be Ava rounda mpid. By the way, for your own good, practise rapid landing and firing. 1 am going on writing a I don't know

and whether it will go through. Our own officers censor the letters. (We'd like some mors like this.-Censor) Das way of gut- ting our own backy They give us plenty | of parades wa, write a lot letters to Bad them something to de. (Thanks we sing "do" poraden.—Cenent.) They must get plenty of fan out of it. judging by a few I've helped to write. I'm the dictionary -for-mg-section.--
