At Bonn, General Currie, the Corps considerable d stance from home, counting Commander took up a position at the by miles, but thanks to your paper and al centre of the -bridge and took the salute as continuous stream of letters I feel as if t the boys marched across with fixed bayo• nets. The old German song "The. Watch on the Rhine" has come true, but it is Canada, through her troops, who is doing the Watch, Our boys guard both ends of the bridges. Along the western bank heavy guns are drawn up in lines. We were stationed in Cologne for a week during which time I was fortunate in as tanning a lank through the central part of there was a high wall separating me from the town, When I was on leave in Lon- don last January, 1 encountered a home lad at Marble Arch, and he informed me that he had ready letter of mine in "The Advance." I was quite surprised at the time. I trust you will refrain from pub- lishing Ietter or at least my name. This time last year we had just return- ed from a strenuous experience Passchan- t the city. The cathedral is of course the A section of one of the large bridges across the Rhine and the famous Cathedral. This bridge is known as the Hohenzollern Bridge. Cologne dalle, we were packed in a big mine -yard at Berlin in front of Lens. A fine big slag heap stood between us and the line at that timeeo that we enjoyed total im- munity from shell fire, The Germans were aware of our exactposition, however, -and this knowlegde proved disastrous lat- er on, for most of the houses on one street were totally demolished by heavy shells. At that time we simply abhorred a fine evening. A moonlight night meant nol sleep on account of the persistent bomb- zng.y A great change has taken p• lace since then. Here we are on the Rhine, guests of the Germans, There are no dangers from shells and bombs and our objective has been gained. W& had a hard journey before we readied the Rhine Valley. We crossed the border at Namur on the Meuse river. The hills made our advance very difficult. The roads were soft with continuous rains. I frequently hitched a cable onto the horse transport wagons to give them a tow over the top of a particu- larly steep hill, From the 'time we left the Meuse in Belgium, till we reached Euskirchen, a big town about twenty miles south west of Cologne, we were con- stantly climbing and descending hills The country was very sparsely settled The Main object of interest. It is a very fine building but one is obliged to admire it with a certain reserve for this is the build- ing which the British agreed that they would not bomb during the "Carpus Christi" festival. The same day the Ger- mans shelled Paris With"their long range guns, and helpless women and children were killed and maimed whilst they were celebrating the same festival. The station opposite the cathedral is a fine building too, but that only recalls the beautiful "Gare du Nord" at Arras, which is a hopeless wreck. I sincerely hope that all these things are not forgotten when the Allied peace terms are presented I think the Germans are beginning to realize their great mistake. I had a slight indication of this whilst purchasing some post cards in a shop. We were parked in a suburb known as Marienburg. Along the waterfront there is a small park and in' the centre is a monument dedicated to Bismark. It is one of the most grotesque monuments I have ever seen, and most effectively symbolizes the old German motto that "Might is Right." The lady who was serving us spoke English fairly well and I asked her for a post card of this monument. She was greatly surpris- ed and remarked that it would not be a The bridge across the Rhine at Bonn. Ceneral Currie took up a post on the cer ;ttre of this bridge to take the salute as the boys marched over with fixed bayonets, hillsides were coveredwith vt 1 h forests whit are known as Ardennes. On the Germy side of the frontier the trees had evidentl been carefully grown as they were arrang in regular rows. I Iearned after that in previous days the owner of a forest was ob liged to gain permission from the Gover ment to cut down a single tree. When one tree was removed another was immed- iately planted in its place. We halted a few days at Euskerchen which Was the fir et German town of any size we had entered. The people were far from hostile towards us, Our mesa was arranged a large cafe and theladiesgave our cook every assistance possible, The scarcity of food was very apparent here, When our lorries arrived with the rations great crowds ds of ci'' vih Ens gathered at the dumps. They seemed mostly interested in the fresh meat and bread. Fresh meat was unknown to them for two years -end. their bread is elruoat almoet entirely made ftp from substitutes, In the $hope there were great stocks of manufactured articles such as books and toys, In the shoe stored I noted that there weft plenty of boots on exhibition but they were tl11 h . nice card to send to Canada. At any rate n I couldn't obtain a view of it. The civilians Y ivihans have received a great stir- - prise since the Canadians entered this sec- tor.

They are evi- dently - not accustomed to this frons sol- diers. 1 am enclosing a few post cards of prominent points which may be of interest to you.
