With your left hand reach inside your oppoaent's crotch and get a firm hold on his further leg. Thrust your right arm under his neck, taking hold of his further shoulder. Then, with as much force as you have at your command, pull the arm and leg toward you. At the same time press forward against your 'op- ponent's body so that your weight helps to force him over on his left side. From the position you get him into you should have little difficulty in ob- taining another hold that will result in a fall The further arm and further leg MEYER 178 Pound and Heavyweight Champion Amateur Wrestler of United States hold is a difficult one to break from and the wisest thing for a wrestler to 20 to avoid it is to be so shifty and quick of movement that it is impos- sible for his opponent to secure the hold. Another effective hold which may be secured from the hands-and-knees positian is illustrated on the right side of the pitrure. It is called the bar and further arm hold. Both you and your opponent are on your hands and knees. Slip your right hand under his left arm near the shoulder. Get your arm over his back and secure a firm grip on the right side of his body. Thrust your left arm under your oppenent's chin, and take hold of his right shoulder. With the bar hold, which you have secured with your right arm, force your man's left shoulder and arm up and over his back. At the same time, pull his further arm under toward you. This will throw him off balance. Use your weight to push him over on his side. By bracing yourself your lef leg as the wrestler i8 1g in the picture, you are less likely to fall over with your opponent as he rolls, which is the chief danger In this hold. Incorrect?

When we had left Fes- tubert and got to the neighborhood of Bethune, I took two young privates one day to lunch with me in a French hotel We were just begin- ning our meal when to my astonishment the spspected spy, accompanied, by a French interpreter, sat down at an op< posite table. He ked towards me, but made no sign of recognition--a cir cumstance which I regarded as being decidedly suspscious. I naturally did not look for any demonstrations of af- fection from him, but I thought he might have shown, if he were an honest man, that he remembered one who had caused him so much inconvenience. Once more the call 6 duty came to my soul. I felt that this man had dodged the British authorities and was now giving his information to a French in- terpreter to transmit it at the earliest possible moment to the Germans, I told my young friends to carry on as if no- thing had happened, and excusing my- self, said I would come back in a few minutes. I Went out and inquired my way to the Town Major's office. There, very your enjoyment of the trip.

When the officer and the interpreter, at the conclusion of their meal, went out into the passage, I followed and asked for their identification. The officer made no attempt to disguise or check his temper. ' He said that there must be an end to this sort of work. But the ar- rival of the two policemen in the pass- age showed that he had to do what I asked him. This he did, and the inter- preter also, and the police took their names 'and addresses. Then I let my friends go, and heard them depart into the street hurling denunciations and tineals of vengeance upon my devoted and loyal head. It was about a week or ten days after- wards that I was called into our own Brigadier's office. He held a bundle of letters in his hand stamped with all sorts of official seals. The gist of it all was that the G.O.C. of the Indian Division in France had reported to General Al derson the extraordinary and eccentric conduct of a Canadian Chaplain, who persisted in arresting a certain British officer whenever they happened to meet. He wound up with this cutting com- ment, "The conduct of this chaplain seems to fit him rather for a lunatic asylum than for the theatre of a great war." Of course explanations were sent back. It was explained to the General that reports had reached us of the presence in our lines of a German spy in British uniform, who from the description given, resembled the Indian officer in all particulars. It is needless to say that every one was immensely amused at the Canon's spy story, and I mentally resolved that I would be more careful in the future about being éarried away by my sus- picions. I told people, however, that I would rather 'run the risk of being laughed at over making a mistake than to let one real spy escape. Festubert made a heavy toll upon our numbers, and we were not sorry when we were ordered out of the line and found ourselves quattered in the neigh- bourhood of Bethune. Bethune at that time was a delightful place. It was full of people. The shops were well provided with articles for sale, and a restaurant in the quaint Grande Place, with its Spanish tower and Spanish houses, was the common meeting place of friends. The gardens behind private residences brought back memories of pre-war days. The church was a beauti- ful one, built in the 16th century. The colors of the windows were especially rich, It was always delightful to enter it and think how it-had stood the shock and turmoil of the centuries. One day when { was there the organ was being played most beautifully, "it. '{ting next to me in a pew, was a Can- adian Highlander clad in a very dirty uniform, He told me that a friend of his had beer killed beside him, drench- mg him in blood. The Highlander was e grandson of a British Prime Mini- ster. We listened to the music till the recital was over, and then I went up to the gallery and made myself known to the organist. He was a delicate young fellow, quite blind, and was in a state of nervous excitement over his recent efforts. I made a bargain with him to give us a recital on the following even- ing. At the time appointed, therefore, "}1 brought some of our lads with me. The poor organist met us at the ch band I led him over to a monas- ters in which a British ambulance was making its headquarters. There, in the chapel, 'the blind man 'out his soul in the strains of a most beautiful instrument. 'W, evening light. sat entranced in the e transportéd ws intd ver to repeated requests, i Headquar cured me a horse, I am told that the one sent to me came by mistake and was not that which they {intended me tO have. The one I was to I heard, was the traditional {padre's horses heavy, slow, unemotional, land with knees ready at sink in prayer. The animal sent to me, however, was a high-spirited chestnut thoroughbred, very pretty, very lively and neck-reined. It had once belonged to an Indian general and was partly Arab. Poor Dandy was my constant companion to the end. After the Armis- tice, to prevent his being sold to the Belgian army, he was mercifully shot, by orders of our A.D.V.S. Dandy cer- | tainly was a beauty, and his lively dis- position made him interesting to ride. I was able now to do much more parish visiting, and I was rather amused at the way in which my mount was in- spected by the different grooms in our units. I had to stand the fire of much criticism. Evil and covetous eyes were set upon\Dandy. I was told that he was "gone" in the knees. I was told he had a hump on the back--he had what is known as the "Jumper's bump." Men | tickled his back and, because he wrig- gled, told me he was "gone" in the kid- neys. I was told he was no proper horse for a padre, but that a fair exchange was always-open to me. I was offered many an old transport hack for Dandy, and once was even asked if I would change him for a pair of mules. I took all the criticisms under consideration, and then when -tiey were repeated I told the men that really I loved a horse with a hump on his back. It was so Biblical, just like riding a camel. As for' weak kidneys, both Dandy and I were teetoltallers and weé could arrest disease by our temperance habits. The weakfess of knees too was no objection in my eyes. [In fact, I had so long, as a parson, sat bver weak-kneed congrega- tions that [ felt quite at home sitting on a weak-kneed horse. Poor dear old Dandy, many were the rides we had together. Many were the jumps we took. Many were the ditches we tumbled into. Many were the un- seen barbed wires and over-hanging telephone wires which we broke, you with your chest and I with my nose and forehead. Many were the risks we ran in front of batteries in action whica neither of us had observed till we found jourselves deafened with a hideous ex- | plosion and wrapped in flame. I loved all times to | pull down your soft face towards mine once again, and talk of the times when you took me down Hill 63 and alo Hyde Park Corner at Poegsteert. Hag I not been wounded and sent back to England at the end of the war, I would have brought you home with me to {show to my family--a friend that not merely uncomplainingly but cheerfully, with prancing feet and arching meck and well groomed skin, bore me safely through ' dangers and\ darkness, on crowded roads and uhtracked flelds. What dances we have had together, Dandy, when I have got the bands to play a waltz and you have gone through the twists and turns of a performance in which you took an evident delight! I nd tell the boys that Dahdy and I always came home together. Some- times I was on his back and sometimes he was gn mine, but we always came home together, tte I Get a Curate. A few'days later "my establishment | was increased by the purchase of a well- bred little white fox-terrier. He rejoic- {ed in the name of Philo and became my inseparable compansion. The men called him my curate. Dandy, Philo and I made a family party which was bound | together by very close ties 'of affection. Though none of us could speak the language of the others, yet the sym- pathy of each enabled us to understand and appreciate one another's opinions. I always knew what Dandy thought and what he would do. I always knew too what Philo was thinking about. Philo had a great horror of shells. I put this down to the fact that he was born at Beuvrry, a place which had been long under shell-fire. When he heard a sheli coming in his direction, Philo used to go to the door of the dugout and listen for the explosion, and then come back to me in a state of whining terror. He could not even stand the sound of our own guns. It made him run round und round barking and howling furiously. It was while we were out in rest at Bethune that I was told I could go on a week's leave to London. I was glad of this, not only for the change of scene, but for the sake of getting new clothes. I awoke in the early morning and listened to the French guns pound- ing away wearily near Souchez. At noon I started with a staff officer in a motor for Boulogne. It was a lovely day, and: as we sped down the road through little white unspoilt villages, and saw peaceful fields once again, it seemed as if 1 were waking from a hideous dream. That evening we pulled in to Victoria Station, and heard the Westminster chimes ringing out half- past eight. (Copyrighted in Canada by F. G. Scot!; book rights reserved.) i (To be Continued.)
