Sergeant Payne enlisted in Sydney

famous landing at Gallipoli, and was
wounded. .Later he was blown up by

i board; he says. Many of these na-
tives had never seen the sea, and very
few had ever sailed upon it. They
believed most things their officers told
then, but it was of no use to tell
them that men built this great float-
ing town. No. Allah must have made
it! Pointing to the two steam tugs
lying side by side in the harbor, they
asked how soon it would take these
lessee ,craf1 to grow to the size of the
transport, which must be their moth-
er. The tables and benches on the
troop deck of the -ship were an un-
necessary eneunebrance to'the black
men, whoIknew not whether to sit on
the tables and rest their feet on the
benches, or to sit on the benches, us-
ing the tables as a support for their
basks. When the officers began to
issue the usual hammocks there wad'
the wild excitement of children with
a new and wonderful toy. Climbing
in at one side the black men fell out
at the' other, and thought it all the
greatest fun in the world.
The navigation of the ship was a
mystery to the Africans. - The popu-
lat' theory was that tine were pulled
along by"a wire under the sea. Many;
attached considerable importance to
the log line on the stern of the ship,
supposing that it somehow enabled
the skipper to find his way across the
aeeen, ;while a'few maintained that
it .was a means of catching fish. Our
many endeavors to convince the Afri-
cans that the earth is round were in-
variably -met with ribald laughter. In
vain did we ..expound the principles of
wireless. They thought it all capital •
sport, and roared with laughter at
these jokes of their officers.
When we -readied Durban the peo-
ple .invited the Africans to a moving
picture show. The two hours,,, we spent
in that theatre are beyond my des-.;
cription. Frornvbeginriing to end, no
matter whether the screen was blank
or displayeelt the most stirring scenes;
the men gave themselves up to one
frenzied tumult of laughter. The dig -
tilled inspection' of a 'wrecked Zep-
pelin by Mr. Balfour and Mr, Lloyd
George rovbl
g p o .ed as great an outburst
of Mirth as the most extravagant
Charlie Chaplin farce. The blank that
follows the completion of a film was

The actuaries have got the soldiers'

point. Based on the mortality ste-
ed tistics of the Allied armlet the fight-
ing man's chances are as follows: 29
se • chances of coming; hone to 1 of be -
1 ing killed; 49 chances of recovering
from wounds to 1 chalice of dying
j.from them; 1 chance in 500 of losing
a limb. And the soldier's life even
1makes for longevity. It is estimated
that the average. Tommy who sur-
vives the r sk of battle adds five

A lady, who had a very slow servant
girl, noticed- that it took the girl ,al-
most half the day to scrub the .kit-,
chen, a piece of work that should
have been accomplished in an hour.
The servant always accompanied her
scrubbing with a song, and one day
the mistress was alarmed at the slow
progress she made.
" 'Mid pleasures" (scrub) "an' pal-
aces" (scrub) "tho' we may" (scrub)
`roam—"
"Jane!";called the mistress, stern-
ly, "I ain tired of hearing 'Home,
Sweet Home.' Sing 'The Campbells
are Coming'."
Nothing loath, `Jane did so, and fell
into the trap so cleverly laid for her.
Her scrubbing brush flew over the
boards with lightning rapidity.
The poetry of notion had made
swift work.
