They had served their term in the tront trench {down on the Somme and Alex was disgus- ted at everything being so quiet that par- i, ticular week. He did not have occasion; to fire a single shot.

He had just come in from a rather 1trenyousi piece of work, which consisted in buying a I supply of beer for the wet canteen at a, neighboring town. From this do not judge that Ernest has forsaken temperance prin- iciples or will proceed to violate the Cana- ‘da Temperance Act when he returns to Ontario.
