Graduates to Act as Instructors to New Arrivals. 1 I "With the American Army in France.? i The "graduation exercises" of the large j bayonet school were watched by sev- j oral generals and their staffs. The { men, who had been trained in the British system by British instructors, gave a demonstration of energy, speed and accuracy which was truly American. They are?ready to go over the top. A British sergeant major put the j men inrougn ine arm so vigorously uuu j more than one man was hurt. But their ! wounds were not serious. The instruc- | tor himself so narrowly escaped a bay-: onet point that his tunic was cut. "Now, then," the sergeant would say, holding a heavy, long stick in his hand, "when I tell you men to turn, try to get the point to me. Now, turn! Yeah! Yeah! Give 'em hell! That's good!" They "Go Over the Top." The Americans worked like football players, every nerve and every har- j dened muscle straining. The sergeant, | by reason of long practice, was abia I +r? wnr/1 nff snmp thrusts with the I point pr butt, but from many he had to jump." Even more vigor was shown by the men as they occupied the trench line and, with their officers, went over the top in a charge.. The operations began by firing from tne trench at the dummies in the enemy trenches. Some of [ the men made perfect scores, while! only three of the whole class fell be-! low 80 in a possible 100. The men went furiously at tne j charge, urged on by the most emphatic j language that a British sergeant major j' might be credited with having at his j command. He shouted to his men: j "Give it to 'em?in the,heart, in the j throat! That's the way. If you don't' i get them they'll get you! On your toes i all the time! Quick! Quick! Quick!" The urging was unnecessary. The Jhen knew what to do and did it, and thpv were so well trained that orders i * were anticipated. I : The French and British officers were 11 enthusiastic, especially at the speed < and energy of the Americans. Some of the graduates will be sent immedi- ; ately to newly arrived units as instructors. Training New Contingent A division of American troops, recently arrived in France, will begin regmieiuui iiiaueuvtris at uulc anu : will be trained in barrage fire, the i American ajtillery wofking with Amer-! ican aviators. The site picked for the j practice is rolling ground. The artillery will lay a barrage up ! to the first objective, over theoretical ; German trenches. The infantry, fol- j < lowing up the fire, will occupy the : trenches and then execute a flank , movement. The signal corps will get the benefit of the maneuvers, for they will be car- j ried out as if an actual attack were ; being launched. ymMmmmrnmammmuMmmmmmmmmmaumm \ 490 CHEVE ? I $635 F. O.
