He was web known, and is one of those bright, breezy fellows who is a general favor- ite. His Bret words were, 'Hellos, fellows, Gee, isn't this one—of a night?'

After a little he noticed the piano and made for tt , sat down and beganan • playing R nothing in particular. Then he play- ed some rag time in which some of the buys joined, singing and whistling. Then he passed on to some of those old time songs, you know the kind, those we sing in our homes and in our camps. "Gradually I could see the other fellows' stop writing, some bite their fingernails, others 'swallow hard, and others resting their chins on their hands and gazing into space, would think of home, As I stood there, I confess, a tear stood in my own eye and my heart rose to, my wouth as that pianist played eome of those old Scotch songs which will never die. Many of us developed colds during that time. I can tell you I have heardomagreat musicians in my day, but they all seemed as nothing compared with what I heard to -night, That old piano lacks a lot of strings and some o1 those it does possess ere no good; some of the keys stick, whilst it suffers from more general ailments than ever 1 thought a piano could possess, but in that little room up in Aix Moulette, played by' that young fellow, it sounded Sweetly. "Tho Chaplain came in to see me and I drew his attention to the men, He moved over to the piano and sug- gested a hymn. The pianist struck up 'Abide With Me.' We eaug two verses, then the Padre prayed, and we all joined in the Lord's prayer, and then the pianist played 'In the Street,' whilst the men melted away. e "It was great, great to have seen, just to have been there, great to have had a share in it, "That is Y, IRI, C.
