At. nine o clock that night the crowd was still pour- ing through. ~ ' . years to get together, and now in ruins, sobbed with a sob of a broken heart, and. imprinted on their faces was the look of despair of lost souls, whilst clinging to them were the little children wondering what it -was all about. Some of the less strong were hustled out of the throng and forced-to sit by the roadside. Here. it was that ` Tommy Atkins showed the manliness, and humanity which is part of the British nature. With a. kindly word and a pat on the shoulder, `Tommy carefully lifted the babe in arms, eased the women ` cf their bundles and gave his` arm l to_ the old and feeble. What a pic- ture that would have made! At . this point it` is impossible for me to I go further without saying that 1 what French troops _ were passing 1 through the town did not show the same manlyspirit as did the British. . What I` say below can be corrobor- 1 ated by thousands of `Canadians 1 who witnessed the scene. The French infantry were totally disor- . ganized; they poured . through the town mixed up with the refugees, without ries, side-arms or equip- ment. They had thrown all away . and ed. One could easily tell ; which was the party that was ying. 3 The `British transport drivers rode! . their limbers through the town at _ `their usual pace, perhaps stopping. . where possible to pick up _Women and children. The French hurried through the town, jossling anyone . who happened to get in their way _ and having that `excited look on their faces that denotes ight. If nothing more than the . ahpve had . happened, I .would have said nothing as when all is said and done it is ` terrible to be gassed in the way the : French troops had been, but I do indite the French troops with show- ing at this time a total lack of that humanity displayed` by Tommy At- T kins. I never saw a single French . soldier assist in any way any of the 3] refugees. I have seen French sol- diers going through the towns on farm wagons, whilst old men, wo- men and children vtottered beside them. I have seen wagons on which - French `infantrymen were, ` and on :1 which room couid have been made }' for six women, refuse to stop to pick them up. They had absolute- .30 ly- no thought but to save their own as miserable skins-. It was then that or I thanked God I was British born. Iwill say this much that they were ' not soldiers belonging to the regular c French army and from the Way the French have fought at other parts m` nf flip lino T 4-Lin]; "1\n`- LL..L .~._.

"At that time the" -French F ` call to leave their homes; as they W had been warned by the authorities f _to get out three months before that, _ From the `time the Batt. arrived in Vlamintington, it ' was under Stand to orders. Nothing hap- , of what I actually saw myself and then give an account of the: Battle ,who took part in it. My two assist- hnts, Jack. Fraser and Bill Atkinson `and myself were billeted in the farm- house along with the brigade bomb- throwers. Thursday afternoon .in- termittent heavy gun re could be heard, gradually .increasing in vol- nme, until it was just one contin- l {nous roar. None of us knew wheth- ' _'er it was the British or the Germans ' attacking. About 5 o clock the re feased slightly; at that time, seeing a number .of men outside the farm- house looking and pointing towards the sky I also went out to invest- ,where the trenches would be situat- `ed, three German aeroplanes circling them sent up three rockets, giving the range to the German artillery, which had been awaiting. the signal. .The roar of the guns was then `sim- ply deafening. You could almost feel the ground rock. I have never heard anything like itasince and sup- ._ pose never Will. About six p.m., a few transports and refugees pas- sed through the town. We" still did not think things were so serious "as they were until about seven `drove through the town minus their `guns. They had left 50 guns in the German s hands; behind the num- `hers of refugees swelled into a `crowd. . A continuous stream of French and British transports of all kinds were also making their way through the town, owing to their bil- lets being untenantable by shell re. The staff ofcers were at this time trying to keep the multitude of refugees from blocking A the trans- ports. Several times the crowd had to be diverted into the elds to pre- yent congestion, although it was `I partly the refugees own fault that t led to their getting the hurry-up P yet it was a pitiful sight. The more 1) prosperous of the ~ inhabitants utili- m zed their farm wagons to convey the women folks and children and 1 what household goods they could 11 manage to get away in time, but the F3 vast majority had to walk. In that F3 crowd could be found beings of all 0} ages from the babe in arms to the t1` feeble old couple on the brink of the be grave. Most of the refugees came from the country around Ypres and 1". ' on reaching Vlamintington the female part of the multitude were dead beat, but there was `no resting for "chem. The- roar of the guns kept `ever before their minds that death pu was behind them.

It" has a net paid circulation fully 25 per cent. greater than any other farm paper in the Dominion. ' Just now` the installation of a printing press costing $32,000 (the only machine of its kind in a Canadian publishing house) .is making possible "a substantial. increase in the size of the Coun- tryman. During the next year the minimum size will be 32 pages weekly, with 36 pages during ve winter months. This has opened up the way to a new program of editorial features that will put The" Countryman in a class by itself. well illustrated, dealing with -the outstanding timely problems of the Ontario farmer. Figuring five such articles, of a paare or more, to the issue, gives fully 300 pages of feature articles in the course of a year, with upwards of 500 to 700 selected illus- trations. The Week s Reminder is to present practical hints for every--week in the year, written by a well known manager of -a large farm. Under the heading of -` `A Dollar for a Good Idea will be published descriptions of practical ideas sent in _by Countryman readers, $1 being paid for each idea accepted. `. `Practical Discussions by Practical Farmers, is a department in which will be given the experiences and views of good farm- ers on the most important seasonable subjects.
