GAS AND ARTILLERY ATTACKS. | Walter Noyes, of Signalling Corps, {Tells About Some of the 'Experi- ences at the"Front--Men Are Now| Well Prepared For Gas Attacks. j Walter Noyes, with. the Signalling Forge at the front, ras written an in- teresting letter under date .of Dec 18th to "Jack" North, of 240 Wel-: lington street, in which he says: 'It is a beautiful day. . The sun is shining, and it is not cold. Tlie worst 'part of-it is the mud. There is mud up to our knees where we are now, and it is a cdse of getting our feet wet every day, but it will have to dry up some day. Last night we had a gas and artidlery attack. The bombarding was about the, heaviest yet. It went on all through the night, and there was a continual rum- ble and crash, shaking everything. Once or twice it disturbed my sleep, ; but' not for long, as you soon get used to it. The gas was pretty heavy, but the Wind changed early in the morning and took it off quickly. "It is doubtful if the 'Germans g@®ined anything by it, because every one is pretty "well prepared for gas or anything. here were a couple of good. aerial five this morning. One took place directly above us, and we all had quite an exciting it.'
