I expect- ed to see worse conditions The people are well dressed, have good leather shoes and look to be well fed All the store windows are decorated for Xmas and look Very pretty. Some things are very scarce especially in the eat line, certain articles none at all. In a recent letter from Thorsdorf. Ger- many. w. read the following : "We had a very stiff march but I would have been disapp.oittted. had I mined it If they had carried out the schedule we were to follow --rnareh two days and rest two-it would have been much easier but we marched five andrested one and then at it again. We got along Me considering the amount of troop. and tame that were on the move ind very seldom had to wait. We had a certain time to fall in, rest 10 min. utes in every hour. stop for dinner at 11._50 and moveoff at l, so yousee we had a time-table to go by. The okra of 1918 intend limiting the Bed Own work. You have no idea the conditions the Germans left the railroads in between Valenciennes and Mons. Every bridge we: blown up and a charge of gun cotton had been placed under every other joint on both rails. The rails were twisted in all shapes and blown even on the tops of houses but now everything is fixed up and trains running on time. There were some very costly bridges blown up-such a shame ! Even after the armistice was signed and we had passed over, off would go the delayed mines and up would go the bridges. The Canadian Engineers exam- ined them but could not always find the mines as they were carefully concealed. For about tive days there was one crash after another " munition dumps, mines, &c.. went up. A great many civilians were killed or injured.
