DESCRIBES TRENCH LI EE.
Lieut. Percy Woi UiingtOii, Young
American, l ornici Oxford Sliuloni,
Writes, of Experiences With Allies.
Baltimore Sur..
Lieut. Percy Wort hingt?n, a form?
er student at Oxford aud son of an
American physician residing in Paris
before the war, has written interest?
ing letters of his experience at th*
"front." Ueutenant Worthington re?
ceived his early education at Harrow
end hud completed his second year at
Oxford when the war broke out. Ho
eillsted in the Br.tlsh army one
month later. At the request of a
friend in Baltimore he has given an
account of his expeiiences from that
time until his return to England, af
iter being wounded at Loos, tho bat?
tle in which John P. Poe was killed,
j Lieutenant Worthington Is hardly
more than 21 years old. His expe
rlencea arc probably similar to those
o>' many other Oxford undergraduates,
who, though little more than boys and
without previous military training, of?
fered their servicos in answer to Lord
Kitchener's call for volunteers. The
letter follows:
"Tunbrldge Weils,
Dec. 1?, 1916.
"You suy that any personal docu?
ment of the war Interests you; so, at
the risk of being tcdlour, I will try
to give you some Ide.t.of my own sen?
sations and experiences.
"I was in Wales when tho war
broke out and at flr.t *as merely an
Interested spectator, but by the end of
August all my English friends had
Joined/ and* indeed, many of r*y
scheel "frleflds wert already dead.
Sunday. September 1, 1914, I enlisted
as private in an infantry battalion, the
Public School Pattg?on of the
Regiment.
*We went Into, training at once at
? race course, though we had neith?
er arms nor uniform*. It was a pret?
ty rough life at first. We slept on
straw, 10 in a loose box. Knives,
forks and plates weio conspicuous by
their absence. Few ->f us, had been in
the army and food tfas at tlrst a
scramble* and ho. lodged best who loot?
ed'flrsrV but we gradually settled
down to the routine of the line soldier.
A life In which hard physical ejcerclsc
and food ,Were the chief constituents
was not very intellectual, though wo
Were al\ supposed to be public school
men; ergo, people o! (oducation.
"It soon became apparent it hat ev?
eryone of officer class would be
needed In that capacity, for In the
British army tho ex-ranker, despite
experience of war, a not altogether
satisfactory as an officer, and the
Tommies do not like him. Consequent?
ly about the end of October I applied
for a commission u nl was gazetted
second lieutenant in the ? Regiment
at the end of November.
"My new regiment was one of
Kitchener's army an 1 was then In
tents on the south coast. They were,
In an overwhelming majority, civilians,
mostly London artlsnns and laborers;
a very keen, cheery and Intelligent
crowd, but without the remotest Idea
of discipline and quite unused to
marching or shooting.
"The conditions were very trying
on the morale; Insufficient clothing,
poor food, continual ruin* and mud
Inches deep and no way to get things
dry, yet they stood it like bricks and
graiually developed into soldiers in
stei.d of civilians in uniform. In De?
cember we moved lr.to billets und
there we stayed till March, busy ill
the tlmo drilling, marching and shoot?
ing and maneuvering. Then back to
eamp on the coast, where huts had
now been built lor us Instead of tents.
In June we moved to-, near Alder
shot, and .sleu with our service rilles
and put on the finis!ting touches by
hiK-scale maneuvers.
' Till April I had had command of
a platoon: that Is to say. I was par?
ent, spiritual and temporal guide, and
pastor to some ?U men, and a nicer set
of fellows 1 never expect to meet. My
sergeant was the foreman of ? big
photographic vvorks, my corporal an
electrical engineer in tne Uogdog un?
derground; my orderly had driven en?
gines on railways In Kurland and even
in Buenos Aires, w hi e my chronic
drunkard was an elisicd parson.
"After April I became for some
time a machine gun officer and had
charge of a section of four of these
particular Inventions of Satan. It was
very Interesting both mechanically and
tnetleally; for, ll ho far as dsfSilM i>
concerned, thlH war has ,in France,
become largely a war of the machine
gun.
".\t ia?t. on Pent ember t. Iiis, we
got ulir long-awaited orders mid cm
hgrhed for France. it was an un?
eventful gight journey, though the
Mghm of tjie gnldS ships and tttC
shadows of our sssoTtlng destroyers
added a touch of realism to the men?
ace of submarines.
"We spent a pleasant three weeks In
|hg heart of the Bhard. country do?
ing further training aid I, personally,
had a meat time. As unotficlal Inter?
preter I ruled the villi go (Lieutenant
Worthington speaks French fluently)
ind tho feeding of the mess, was in
m| knndn \w worin i hard nil daj
41*4 played poker a good part of tlo
night, whereby sume of us acquired
Wisdom and other* debts.
"oi the twentieth we got orders to
move up to the front. We knew that
there was something on and as wo got
closer to the front it became quite ob?
vious, for the artillery was thunder?
ing all day and on our last night's
march wo camo over a bridge from
which we could see half a dozen burn?
ing villages.
"O i tho morning of the twenty
fifth, tho day of tho assault at Loos,
wo were some live miles from tho fir?
ing line, and though moved up early
in the day as supports, we were kept
Wgittng till nightfall behind V. vil?
lage. It was pretty gruesome march?
ing up and mooting tho dozens of
wounded men limping back, or every
now and then a batch of sullen, de?
jected German prisoners;, and above
and through and over all the ever?
lasting roar of tho guns.
"At. night we moved up and occu?
pied ' he German trenches taken that
morning by the - Division in
front of the Hohenzollern Redoubt.
Tho next four days were absolute hell.
From Friday morning ttll Tuesday
morning we got no food or drink and
all the time we were shelled and to?
ward the end, bombed. Wc could not
gut our wounded away and got little
rest and rain added to our sorrows.
"I* knew what really physical fear
of tho most compelling sort meant;
but by the mercy of God, managed to
avoid running away. * I can't hope to
give you an idea of what that life was
like. I was in charge of my company,
for my brother officers were wound?
ed. *
"Without orders or knowledge of
exactly what had happened on cith?
er Hank or in front, it became a hid?
eous nightmare on which even now
I don't cane to. dwell. At last, on
Tuosday afternoon, It becamo neces?
sary to charge a party of Gorman
bombers with the bayonet. Starting
was like the start of the eights (boat
races at Oxford), perhaps worso. Af?
ter 60 yards I was Mopped by> a bul?
let through my life shoulder. I man?
aged to regain our trench and got fo
the dressing station and, after ages,
back to Dublin hospital and finally
joined my* people here. The hone ia
mended and tho wound healed, but
I am still unfit for service, though
perhaps by the time you get this. T
shall be out there again add I doubt
Whether this time X stiall como back."

Your Own Little Town.
There are fancier towns than your
own little town,
There are towns that are bigger
than this;
And the people who live in the tinier
towns,
Don't know what excitement they
miss.
There are things you can see in a
wealthier town.
That you can't In the town that is
small;
And yet, up and down, there Is BO
other t<?wn,
Like your own little town, after all.
