Some were searching for Iron crosses among the dead. A sergeant came with hinds and mouth full. “Sir, they’s a bunch of this here black German bread and some atuff that looks like coffee, only ain’t—In that dugont—“ And the company found that Krlegsbrot and Kaffee Ersatz will sustain life, and even taste good If you’ve been long enough without food. . , .

I^ite In the afternoon the French brought up anti-aircraft guns on motor-trucks and the terror of the air abated somewhat As dusk fell, the French cavalry rode forward through the llnea. The lieutenant thoughtfully watched a blue squadron past— “If spirits walk, Murat and Marnhal Ney an* all the Emperor's cavalry are rldln* with those fellows . . ." In the early dawn of the next day the cavalry rode back. One squadron went through the company's position. It was a very small squadron. Indeed, this morning. Half the troopers led horses with empty saddles A tall young captain was In command. They were drawn and haggard from the night’s work, but the men carried their heads high, and even the horses looked triumphant. They had. It de veloped. been having a perfectly won derful time, riding around behind the German lines.
