THE LAST OUNCE NEEDED
"We are so sick here of our reading—* the tramway strike, the cry for mora money, the lack of ammunition, the short hours on Army work—wo who in our little way lmow that it is only more" work, more men, millions of sheils, the' last ounce that tlie nation can give in everything -wanted, that is going to break through the , defences of these Hell-begotten Germans. I am writing this within a few yards of them, ana ' do you know that the bit of ground we are holding now has changed hands nine times since, the beginning, of the war. It is surprising how the men have " changed towards the Germans. At first. they spoke almost kindly of them, new they' simply hate them with a terriiio and devilish hatred."—An English offi-. cer's letter home from Flanders.
