On his first trip over the top he was

.. ' "Rehearsal
In September, 1917, when I was in
a .hospital in England recovering from
an overdose of German mustard gas
which I had inhaled before Passchen
daele, someone sent me a copy of
the Boston Post That paper was
sure fine reading, although it was
neafly three months old. It was
dated June 8 and spread across the
frbnf page in big letters wgs the an
nouncement of the beginning of the
bartle of Messines Ridge and the
blowing up of Hill 60 with 1,000,000
pounds of explosive, t
Perbajs I read the account of the
Hill 60 episode with more interest be
cause I had been concerned in the
preparations for the battle of which
it was me opening gun. i
There had never been,' I suppose,
up to that time, and, of course, there
has not been since, such elaborate
preparation for a battle. Fore more
than two years, or ever since the
spring of 1915, the Germans and. the
British had been facing each other
along the Hill 60 sector and neither
side had gained a yard.
My division had ben holding Hill
60 and the Bluff sector to the right
of the hill since October. 1916. We
had been in and out during all that
time, , taking over for ten days, or,
sometimes, a week, 'and then for a
liko time in supports, and after that
in billets to the rear. We had got
to know the place pretty well Too
well I I fancy, that the general staff
had come to hate the sight and name
of Hill 60. Anyhow, when the big
attack, known as the battle of Mes-
lines Ride, was planned,, the most
important point in . the line to be
taken was i Jlyl 60i ,
The situation at the hill was unique.
The German and British trenches
paralleled each other, with British
front line cutting into the west side
of the hill. . . .
.The surrounding terrain close up
was fairly level and the hill stuck
un like & Riant wart perhaps 100 feet
high, nearly round, and perhaps 500
yards across. The hill was, then, in
No Man's land, with the Hun trenches
on the other side. Hut strangel
O 7
enough the hill was occupied by the
Germans that is to say, they did not
occupy it on the surface of the ground;
hut thev had run tunnels into the
Ufde of the hill and had fairly honey
combed the whole place with galleries
and shafts. Thousands of their sol
diers lived hv these tunnels. On the
top of the hill there had been a for
est, but all the trees had been stripped
of branches and were now merely
splintered posts and stumps. The
German snipers used to crawl up On
the -side ot the hill and hide in the
long grass and behind the wreckage
that had been the wood' and pick uf
off. This was one of the things tljat
made the sector especially dangerous!
Just to the right of the hill the lines
bent together, and at one point were
no more thin 30 yards apart. Some
thing more than a mile to the right
the Vser canal crossed both lines and
No Man's land at right angles. Along
the bank of the canal ran a low ridge,
also at right angles to the trenches.
This ridge had been tunneled length
wise by our forces and was used as
a support trench and for sleeping
quarters. It accommodated 3.000
men. , . ' . p
Now. here was the situation. At
.. a ar nrevinu. to the battle
of Messines Ridge our sappers had
begun to run tunnels under Hill 60.
The preparation for blowing it up had
begun as far Dacic as mat.
the other hand the Germans had sunk
deep shafts aid had Hin under the
lines to the long tunnel which we
were using as a support, nnu w
time was approaching in June wnen
they would be r.eady to touch us oft
and send us up in the air. These min
ing operations were tne mosi exten
sive in the history oi wanare.
The rehearsals of the men began in
March and they were as elaborate as
the mining. ; , ,
About 30 miles to the rear there
had been prepared a great field which
was an exact replica of the German,
front Also a large number of pho
tographs had been collected by our
airmen, showing evjry detail of the
German positions. ...
During April and May our division
had two goes at this rehearsal busi
ness. 1 rememDer tnat wnen we went
out for the first one there was a good
deal of excitement among the men, as
it was clear to anyone that something
big"was coming off. " - '
We were marched for 15 miles back.
of the lines and were there loaded
on the match boxcars funny little
freieht cars about half as big as ours
and after a bit we brought up in a
little town in northern France, where
the trainintr field was located, lhis
field of ours was, only one of I dont
know how many. When you consider
that the Messines Ridge battle ex
tended over a' 10-fiile front perhaps
morel and' that every man on that
front was ascareful rehearsed as
he would have been as an actor in a
drama, it will ; be understood a that
there must have been score of these
fields. There must have 'been thou
sands of carefully instructed officers
as teachers. '
I know that we were duly impressed
with the importance of what was com
ing off before we began.. Thebillets
at X were better than usual ''As a
rule the billets of a batt are selected
by advance agents, the quartermas
ter sergeants, who go ahead when the
troops are on he march and' secure
the quarters necessary. There is air
ways keen rivalry for the best quar
ters to be had in any town, as it is
necessary to use farm buildings, and
someone always has to put up in old
chicken coons and sometimes in a
lately used stable. At X our whole
batt was extra comfortable. We had
our sleeping quarters in big, clean
barns, full of hay. Most of us made
ft practice of going into the mows
and burying ourselves for the night.
The roofs were tight and we slept dry
ancP clean and there didn't seem to
be as many cooties as usual. Ihe
cootie, as everybody known by now,
is tne common ooay louse, tne sol
dier's worst enemy. ..
There were a good many orchards
all over the place and we spent a
good deal of the time when we were
on our own, loafing in th j shade. On
warm, dry nights it was a comon
thing for whole companies to sleep
under the apple trees, sheltered only
by little tents made of our water
proof sheets.

Government Asks Estimate on
Number of Alien Enemy Women
United States Marshal Flynn has re
ceived a telegram from the Depart
ment of Justice in Washington asking
him to send an estimate of the num
bir of German alien women over 14
years old in Nebraska.
About 7,000 German alien men are
registered in Nebraska and Mr. Flynn
believes there are about the same
number of women.
The request for this information in
dicates ihat German alien women will
be registered.

But women who know tbemjervwi have learned that head

'What is needed is a remedy to move the bowel and stir
up the torpid liver. An ever-inereasing number of sensible
women take a small dose of a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known as Dr. Caldwell' Syrup Pepsin and
old by draggists under that name.
It will save a woman from the habitual use of headache
remedies, f1" lotions and similar makeshifts. Once the
bowel are emptied and regulated, the headache -and the
pimples and blotches disappear. It is the rational, natural
