Fires 1'msa :
Meyerode, Germany. Dec. 5. -More
than half our march yesterday was on
German soil. At 12.15 noon we parsed
the msignifcant-looking posts at the
frontier. on which the eyes of the world
were turned in August. 1914, and entered
upon the final pease of the advance •to
the Rtntte. The 1st Brigade were the
first Canadian Infantry over. and Gen.
Currie. with his staff, inspected the
troopsas they palsied through. Tne
1st
Battalion brass band played "The
Maple Leaf" as our headquarters crossed
the lute. then fell out at the saluting pxxnt
and played "God Save the King."

their hats to German officers in 1914, and
it is 005 required that German civilians

general policy laid down by the German

of Germany now. But I think there will

coffee, and with it his frau served fresh
milk, the first we had tasted in many a

papers -but it was hot. and bucked us
up quite a bit. Concurrently we con-
sumed half of the household's one loaf
of bitter brown bread. Then our own
