The system worked pretty wel The boys could smoke all they wante* 0 on deck in the daytime. After th ights were out our sleeping quarter vere absolutely dark, and there was i evere penalty for lighting even i natch. The portholes were open t ;eep the men from suffocating. Before dark I carefully located m; lusband's bunk since I knew I wouli lave to travel by dead reckoning, am couldn't afford to stumble over some bins, because that would get Smither ind my husband in bad and lead to m; liscovery. Before going to bed I tool iff tny heavy shoes and carefully hi< hem. I was going to make the trip L ay stocking feet. Shortly after lights out I felt a gen !e push on my arm, and Smither whispered : "All right, kiddie. Go up forward." 1 sneaked out of the bunk am eacLied my husband's berth withou aishap. He was glad to see me, am or awhile we forgot the ship and th vnr and the dangers and were our elves. But, soldier-like, he suddenl; ame down to cases. "I've got to report you, kiddle," hi aid. "You can't go on or you will ge is all in bad." 1 pleaded with him. He Insisted tha le owed it to his country and his unl orm to report me. "Korget you have seen me," I urged 'aud.let me go along. I will join th< led Cross as soon as I get ashore ii France." Alarm Interrupts Talk. He finally agreed he would not re ort me until just before we arrived f I got away with it that long, but hi isisted he must do It then. However re agreed to see each other the nex ight to have another talk, and bought, with the whole Atlantic be ween us and France, I could persuadi im in the meantime. Just as I wa: etting ready to go back the submarini larm sounded which broke all the boy nt nf thpir hunks seasick as most o hem were. I ran back to my place Just In tim* o hear the rookie quartered over m< rguing with the sergeant. "Get up out of there!" shouted thi non com." "That's the D boat alarm.' "I don't care whether we sink o ot." answered the poor boy. "I hop he does. Don't bother me." The sergeant routed out the rooki* i-ithout much ceremony, and I follow d along to a place assigned to me 01 life raft, putting on my life belt as rent. All the men had orders to doi heir life preservers first and then g< a an orderly manner to their places Lireaay mere uau ueeu iwu ur uiiv rills In the daytime, and the disci ilined man soon catches on. When I reached the deck there wa io confusion and no excitement in tb Itch block darkness.' The men wer iroceeding quietly to their places, fas ening on their life belts, although mos t them bad been wakened out of snoi ag sleeps, and I was proud of the be lavior of the soldiers Uncle Sam wa ending to the trenches. If all our boys who are going t France obey Instructions as well a hat shipload did there will be no ex use for the loss of a life. It all move* iKe cJocsworK. i\o one iosc nis neau. My seasick rookie, however, elimbei nto the wrong boat and got a call fror he corporal. "Don't you know," bellowed the coi )oral, "that lifeboat is reserved for ?1 leers? Get out of there!" "I don't think this la a very demc ?ratie army." grumbled the youngstei 'if they're fussy what boat you get ii it such a time. I'm going to Russia t ;nlist, where there's some freedom, i hey don't drown me, and I don't car f they do." The alarm was only intended as i light drill, and we were soon orderet jack to quarters. I trailed along wit! he rest, almost boldly, ^because ther vas little danger of detection in tha nkj darkness. I rolled into my bunl ind was soon as sound asleep as any jody. As I dozed off I knew I was no ifraid of submarines, for the alarr - ^ ?- -i. T JUU DOC suureu xut? at an, auu a uiuu^u ?ve bad sighted a sure enough U boal After that we had many of thes Irills at all hours. Most of the me soon became calloused to the danger o submarines, and some of them got s :hey would sleep through the alarm?at Is; they would sleep until the sei ?eant, whose duty it was to see tha svery one was out, came along an stirred them none too gently froi slumber. A few began to think the wouljl miss of the sights. Qt tb Disappointed Through Failure to I See TJ Boats. However, these optimists were doomI ed to disappointment, for our ship did | not see a "German porpoise" tke wkole voyage, nor did we hear a gun flred. Since returning to the United States I have beard of the attack on some of the ships of the transport fleet, but it was not on the part of it we were with. It wouid have been impossible for us to have been attacked and not to have 1 known of it As I say, lots of the boys were disappointed because they could not write borne to tbe folks about the narrow escape frosa tbe subs, and the doughboys are great letter writers. Perhaps some of them did, anyway, so as to let those at home know they i, weren't missing anything. r By this time I felt almost like a sole dler and had learned to smoke "tailor made" cigarettes, although I bad tried e it only once before this trip as an eia periment when I was at school and had e abandoned it after a couple of puffs. In the privacy of my bunk I devoted J a whole lot of time to trying to roll them with as much carelessness and real economy of tobacco as are shown I by the U. S. soldier. I had acquired the "matin's" and spent hours at the j task. e About tbe third or fourth day out 1 I felt I was pretty proficient and got out t my brown papers and tobacco on deck L and went to it Near me was a sailor 3 off one of our biggest battleships who e was in the gun crew assigned to defend s tbe transport from attack. He was * off duty, and i saw him watching me >1 eloselv as I rolled the pill. Finally be 0 sidled up. "Say," he asked, "you're a Jane, ain't y you?" 3 "What are you doin'?kid din' me?' I j asked him. f- "I guess you're kiddin' me," h* ans swered. "I pegged you by the way 7 you wrap ap one of those pills. No re1 cralt Is so raw he can't roll one better 1 than that They wouldn't let him In 3 the army If be couldn't But what you're doing on this Joy ride is nona of i- my business, sis. Don't be afraid I'll s tip you off. I'm in the nary, and what the army does ain't my affair so long as we get you over there all O. K." 1 I didn't admit I was a girl, but he t knew. He was a nice boy. who had 1 come from Iowa originally, and I got e real well acquainted with him later. He was one of the few people on the F transport on the way back, a sad and lonesome trip for me, and we became e quite chummy. I saw him only the t other night here in Hoboken. "Well," he remarked, "it's hard luck t they got you. The other two girls - aboard could roll them better than you and slipped through all right" 1, "More power to them if they did," I a answered. "I hope they made It" i Of course there were no more girls on board. He was trying to kid me and get my goat Life on Shipboard. It I was pretty happy and contented for 9 the next couple of days, and I guess I became too sure of myself. Moat of t the boys were getting over their seaI sickness by this time, and the inev itable crap game that follows the army b was In progress. You could hear the 9 men calling for "Little Joe" and "Jime my Hicks" after they got out the "hot s and colds." and they made plenty of f noise. The officers were not rery strict e aboard ship and let the crap game run i with all the noise necessary to the successful playing of this national pase time. One of the boys had been in par" tlcularly hard luck and had only a thin r dime- left to put up for a future margin e when he copped a big pot Just then the submarine alarm sounded. We i knew we were near the danger zone. "Hurry up!" shouted one of the play1 ers as we all broke away from our I places. i The winner calmly collected the pot. o "They may shoot me, and I will tell i. the world so," he announced, "before e I will leave this 'sugar' for a blooming * Dutchman to put a torpedo Into. That would be Just my luck. If It ever rains s soup I will be caught with a fork." e It was another drill alarm, so the e calamltist returned to the game only i- to be "taken" for his rolL t "It would have been better for me if " we had been torpedoed." he said after !- be had been cleaned. s And don't think the doughboy is a piker. Many a time I've seen $1,000 in 0 a single pot 9 Besides craps, the men sang and - played Black Jack, a favorite card 1 game of campaigners and one in which they win and lose big. It wasn't long i before a few of them bad all the monQ ey. The youngsters wrote letters until * m ? l tnuugut burnt; ui uieiu yyuiliu uctu ue ' able to handle a gun on account of " writer's cramp. One young fellow lldn't slight a girl In the state of Texh us, and I suppose be told each she was ' the only one. He ought to get lots of i mail "over there." 9 Because of the breaks in the sleep on f account of submarine drills and for e other reasons I am ordered not to discuss some of the boys slept in the daya time a good deal. There were not 1 many duties aboard ship, and the offl- < cers let all bands take it as easy as e they could. They knew there would be t plenty to do in France. k That is why the American soldier is - fighting for bis captain and not to t make the world safe for democracy Q He knows his captain as the fellow t who looks out for bim. I speak of the t. regular, the neat, soldierly looking fele low you can always tell from a guardsQ mac, when I say this. And I don't >f mean that as a reflection. Soldiering is o the regular's business. In the daytime I saw little or my > husband, but with the aid of Cupid it Private Smlthers I sneaked up to his d berth often at night. He still Insisted n he would report me. The old timers y who knew me covered me up, and all e the iQen were very decent. Wheue_ver 9 t an" officer came along they would fliid an excuse to gather around me, and they did very little swearing. If a fellow forgot and cut loose he got a ciill from somebody. The loyalty of the:>e boys I had known on the border pleased me very much and flattered me a little, I guess. My headquarters were the kitchen, where I was rated as one of the cooks and did my share. Here they called me "Silent Joe" because I talked so little ?afraid my voice would betray me. Glad that they gave me this reputation. I was ready to live up to it Fools Husband. One day I was folding up my blanket when I saw mv husband comine down between the tiers of bunks. "What are you doing there, rookie?" he demanded. "Don't you know there Is drill on deck?" My back had been half turned toward him. I swung around and tore off my hat My hair had been clipped short, but he recognized me and laughed. The joke was on him. "You fooled me, kiddle," he said. "You'd better go up to drilL" But the best I could do was to help myself to a good cry on his chest There was no one who could see us. He was gentle with me as always, and I was happy. I had needed that cry a long time. I think he was a little proud, too, to know his wife would risk so much and follow him so far just to be near him. I enjoyed that moment I didn't care if all the officers on board saw me, but none did. It was easy for me to go through the simple drills on shipboard, for I was familiar enough with the army to show up a lot of the rookies at It Some of the men who did not know I was aboard were curious about my shaving. "When do you get out your razor?" a youngster asked me one day. "I don't have to use it except once - ? a irr? - 1.1 a ween, i answereu. i m a uu ;cu You go to It every day to look manly." Once I did try to shave to play my part. i Of course there were always the sol- . dier songs, and we had quite a collec- , tion of musical instruments aboard, manned by amateurs. One doughboy who had recently returned from service In Hawaii had brought a ukelele along, and he went big, for the boys 1 liked those dreamy tunes. It Is a strange thing about a soldier 1 that he does not sing the stuff written i for him, but prefers the tear Jerkers ,< and sentimental biillads. The soldier songs In France *rill be about back home and not about beating the boches. Tet these boys were going to th9 trenches and that hall with a smile and ( a song. If any reformer kicks cm that crap game he ought to go himself. The men are gambling their lives. Why not i their money? ] The Rookie Who Talked Too Much. 1 Most of the soldiers knew and had ' served with and seen General Persh'?

He seemed to be a sort of distant; person who spent his time in some indefinite place. The captain is the soldier's friend There was much speculation as to what they would do when they reached . France, and all were eager to get into action. They wanted to try it anyway. "We may be fed up on it a year from now," declared one fellow who had been watchfully waiting several ] months In Mexico, "but I hope we get some action soon." ' J I was beginning to think I would see the trenches myself and half hoped 1 so. I knew I wouldn't be scared, and I felt I was part of the expedition by i this time. Nothing would have suited ] me better than to Lave climbed into a ditch" beside Corporal John Carter, U. , S. A. ]( had caught the spirit of the i crowd and bad half got my husband , to consent to let me go along as far as I could make It I was happy. Then one morning without any warn- 1 lug a talkative rookie, who bad been I seasick, but was now better and fresh, said: J "Did you hear there Is a woman ; aboard?" ] "You don't sayf I answered. "Where the devil Is she?" "I don't know. I can't make her," he answered. "I've been looking every- ' body over. All the boys on the ship are talking about it." "Some men would make better old maids than women," I replied and turned on my heel and walked away. There was a lump In my throat The old timers knew enough to keep their mouths shut, but these rookies were natural gossips. The officers would . hear sure and begin a search. Had I come all this way In vain? CHAPTER IV. The Jigfi Up! WHEN a rookie told me all the boy* were talking about there ] being a woman on board the transport I knew things wero getting j mlehtv shaky for me. Bookies like nothing better than to 1 crack wise, as the old timers call it, on 1 anything connected with their troop. 1 They have a keener sense for Inside ] news than ? bird dog lias for a flock of < prairie chickens. This recruit was a ( specially busy one of the breed. He j was as pleased oyer the prospect of a , new thrill as a Mexican Is over a plate ei redhot chlli? con carni. It would be red hot for me, all right, if they found ' me out. By this time Smithers was proud of < me as if I was his own private idea. He used to chuckle an much when an ( officer hove In sight and I stood at attention and saluted an 1 got away with It as h? did when th<> "bones" rolled him ? good pot 1m a crap game.
