THEY HAVE LOST ALL

fmaii, April 27.—Thwt't a new phil
osophy of death In the American army
la K ran re It's "hard to daAne, but
U'a aa intangible .omething" that
ha* taken hold at tha miada of oar
fighting roan. Thay no longar faar
death. U'a ualy vary racontly that I
myself raught lha pirit of tha ihing.
K»ma pa«|il« would rail it fatalUm.
but tha average toldlar expraeaea It
thua: "I'm not Uaad yat and I won't
ilia until my lima comm."
Whatever it ia, it killa worry.
".Since our hoyx have c|ult worrying
ao much about their proa per ta of get
ting kill«d they have more time and
energy for fighting and enjoy the
Tame more," 'aid u high general who
»*.< commenting ua hi- mental change
that had rome over hi* trrMipa.
Our boy* ilid not ipiit worrying
about death until they actually got
in the trenchea. In their training
•nipp*. many mile* Ixuk of the line*,
t often found lads worrying over poa>
iblc danger* tlui» might co> front
them later.
On< a* in die trenches however their
it11<littlt* hi.- v r"nged completely.
The f»i-* <>( tWmiu* Mlunk illuntrates

a certain potfit bncfc in the training
"imp P'-nn.i WW in 'hp guardhou.ie
squad foe mi.condtirt; and when I
nnlced h;m t'c <lav why he didn't he
hav« him null tie said:
My iiwivu' . ai'iw completely, gue:.»
I'm a natural horn . oward. I've been
tryinir either to (ret kicked nut of the
army or he <unt to the rear."
'-n iii rajriinent '.vent to the
front he ir:»rrhed along. l-ater I
a.sked bin captain how he waa doing.
"Absolutely the bout soldier I've
got." the captain ileclared with tome
pride. "He's now the only lad in the
entire reglemnt who has been recom
mended for a medal for galantry un
der Are.
"Just before the (Jermiiii : attimpt
aid on u:i one night ihey helled
us for nearly an hour and all our tel
ephone wire* were cut. We were up
against it.
"Five boy* .stepped out. liennie
was one of them. When he saw my
urpri«e he «aid, almont pleadingly:
" "I.et me go, captain! I want to
show you I'm all right."
"Bennie took the message. A little
later a lieutenant came up to me and
naid:
*" fnptain. T'm ijoinrr to file cfci-pc
a»ra n t one of your men. I mc him
hack there and he wan bent on going
right through that barrage. I com
manded him to wait until it ..I.
and all he said was "You go to hell
and mind your own buaine**," and
went right on through." "
Bennie a few day* Iftter. wm.s the
hero of hU outfit.
"The flrit night we went into the
trenches I was cured of my cold feet,"
he explained to me. "Two of us were
in a dugout when a piece of German
shell came through the roof. The
other fellow waa killed. I didn't get
a scratch. How can you explain that?
I told myself I woundn't and I haven't
worried about death since."
Every hour of the day. almoet the
soldier has jjnpresaed on him that it'a
useless to worry. A company waa
coming out of the trenches the other
morning and every man, though worn
anil sleepy, was happy in the thought
of quiet days ahead with shave* and
baths and good things to eat and rec
reation.
n • »ik jwvi». scuiu 3auK -
"Well, gooifhve, trenches that much
i* over for awhile. Boys well all be
; -eeing the Statue of Liberty yet."
Just at that instant a shell ex
I ploded ami a piece uf shrapnel struck
he • rgennt in the head anil killed
J him.

] •■ihellinjf f»r ilay> and who had li -t
evernl of his men, fell fr m hi* 'no> •'
ard died from a fracture*! skull the
first day he got hack to rest camp.
Personally. I also have lost my
fears of getting killed. My regular
billet in in a particular demolished
old stone house just back of the line*
and hundred* of shells pass over it
every day.
Nothing ever happened to the plar<j
when I was in it but the other day
when I was some miles away, a piece
of shell came throught the roof leav
ing a hole as big as a washtuh. Why
didn't that shell call when I was at
home ?
With every American outfit over
here are Kren h officer' attached a
j instructor*. Thoy have spread s
't cheerful philosophy araonp our troops
j One of them, in a little speevh t«
I American troops the other day, pul
the "don't worry" proposition thi«
way:
"Why worry? If a 'hell or a bullet
comes over, two things might happen:
you might get hit and you might not
get hit. If it doesn't hit you you
have absolutely nothing to worsj
about. If it kills you you Have m
cause for worry. In fact you cant
worry. U It wounda jm, than yarn

on the subject of 1918 style formen
A REVIEW of the spring
style situation for men
and young men reveals a
decided tendency toward
severity of design.
Belts, are no more — and
many other features ap
proved in the past are no
longer in evidence.
The result is that nothing
but superlative tailoring
can lend to the more severe
new styles that air of finish
and fit essential to tjhe well
dressed man and young
man.
