Mr. Balfour Peace Conference Feb 14 1919 [Illustration: Blue denims for the trip home] S.S. Canada 1919 [Illustration: Outpost at Molsberg...] Outpost at Molsberg, Germany, an ancient castle which stands just on the edge of the American occupied area and the Neutral Zone. NOVEMBER ELEVENTH We stood up and we didn't say a word, It felt just like when you have dropped your pack After a hike, and straightened out your back And seem just twice as light as any bird. We stood up straight and, God! but it was good! When you have crouched like that for months, to stand Straight up and look right out toward No-Man's-Land And feel the way you never thought you could. |
