THE CANTONIANQ C. HS l I I l l I for service somewhere and may never see you again, it seems foolish to bother your mind with my affairs. Pray for the freedom and victory of France as I shall do myself until my last breath. Foshae read the note over and over and ended it with the following sentence: Care for yourself and should you see fit, please care for Char. A train whistle was heard and Foshae hurriedly sealed the letter. In ten minutes Foshae with the rest of the volunteers from the village were bound for their destination. After several days of impatient waiting for his master's return, Char decided to set out in search of him. For four days Char wandered on, not knowing when or where to stop. His old home. not being far from the border of France, he was soon in hostile territory. It was early in the morning on the fourth day of his search when he reached a small German C'E'lH'lP. The soldiers at once decided to keep the dog with the intention of training him to search for wounded. Though Char was not a valuable dog, he was intelligent and soon learned and per- formed his duties skillfully. A year and a half passed and Char learned to enjoy his work for the enemy. One day after a battle, Char was sent on a searching trip as he had often been done before. However, he was not successful in finding the battlefield of the previous day and was returning to the camp when he heard a low moan. He hurried in the direction of the sound and found in a little hollow a man in a French uniform. Though his face was distigured and covered with blood, Char recognized the man as his old master. He seemed to realize that his master was dying, for he jumped from side to side, barking and howling like a mad dog. The noise attracted the attention of a soldier in a German uniform, who immediately hurried to find the cause of the disturbance. VVith great difficulty he quieted Char, lifted the Frenchman and asked his name. Foshae only pointed to his pocket from which the German soldier drew a letter addressed to Mr. Guy Foshae. Foshae! he shouted, Guy Foshae! VVhy, I have a brother by that name. You are my brother ! The wounded brother smiled sadly and tried to speak. Opvopenfit, he gasped. The German soldier then discovered that the letter had not yet been opened and that he was to read it to his brother. It is from Hilma, he began. You probably know her. She says that she will never forgive herself for the treatment that she gave you that night. Since that time she has learned the cause of your hesitationg that is, that you had three brothers in the German army. She fully realizes that you are not a coward and asks your forgiveness if that is possible. Guy Foshae heaved a sigh of relief. Nothing was said for several seconds, then the dying man said, Answer! , Surely, old chap,', replied the brother. Do you want me to say that she is forgiven? Guy nodded his assent and the brother promised to write to her. The French soldier said no more and died in a few minutes, leaving his partner in business and a brother enemy to mourn. Guy Foshae was never called a hero, and still he was never again spoken of as a coward. RUBY BATI-I, '19 VVhen the clouds all seem like black ones And the world turns upside down, When you sit on thrones of thistles, And you wear a thorny crown, Vifhen you see no glimpse of sunlight, Through the clouds before your eyes, Can a fellow be real happy If he grits his teeth and tries? If the clouds would turn to white ones -And the earth turn right side to, If acquaintances were friendly, And the word of each were true. If but one streak of sunlight VVere seen once in a while, It then would be no great task For a guy to sing and smile. RUBY BATH, ,157 - 1 ' Ill lll Ili!! 146
