The little Belgian soldier Who climbed
Into th" 'ompnrtniiit was dead Hied: ha
trailed Ids rlllo behind lilln, threw litnifulf
Into the seat and fell round asleep. Ho
wnb ieady to talk when ho awoke an
hour later,
"Yes. I was up till tilsht with Gorman
prisoners," he wild. "It was u bad Job.
There wore only sixteen ot us to handle
loo Germans. We had tour lio.cars, and
wo nut 15 prisoners In one end of the
tar and C5 at the other, olid then four
of ua with 'IHcs sat ctiard by the cardoor.
"Wo rode IHo hours that wai. and I
expected every minute that the whole 50
Germans In the ear would Jump on 113

I'dds. Hut we havo lo do 11. You see
tli'ro ai-ti't enough soldiers In IUIrIuih
to Oo all tin- work, o wo hnie to main,
out the bctt wo can."
That's the plucky llttlo Bclslan soldier
nil over. In the first place he's different
lrom mo soldiers, becuuso he Is willing
to flehl when ho knows he's going to
lose.
"We hao to mako out the best wo
can," I3 his motto. In the second place,
liu's a common senso llttlo fellow. Even
whllo he's righting he's doing It coolly,
und there Is no blind hatred In bin heart
that causes him to waste any effort. He
gets down to the why and wherefore of
things.
"1 really felt sorr for those German
prisoners," said a comrade of the first
soldier. "They were all decent fellow a.
They told me their officers had fooled
them. They ."aid the olllcers gave them
I'rench money on the German frontier
and then yelled to them: 'On to France"
They went on for three days and got to
Liege before they know they were In
Belgium Instead of Trance.
" 'We didn't want to hurt Belgium.'
they told ui, "because we're from Alsace
Lorraine ourselves.'
"You se" continued the logical llttlo
Belgian, "It wasn't their fault, so wo
couldn't be mad at them."
That Is the Belgian idea-cool logic.
"Why did you light the Germans?" a
high Government oftlclal was ajked.
"Because civilization can't e:lst with
out treaties and It Is the duty that a
nation owes to civilization to light to the
death when written treaties are broken,"
was the reply. "It mu.it be a rule among
nations that to break a treaty means, to
fight. The Germans broke the neutrality
with Belgium and we had to tight."
"But did you expect to whip the Ger
mans'."' "Hom, zaA we? We knew that hordes
"J. G4fmans wou'd follow tho first comers,
but hp had no right to worry about who
would be whipped: all wo had to do was
to fight, and we've done It tho best we
could."
It has been a cool-headed, logical mat
ter with the Belt-Inns, from the start.
Treaties are umde with Ir.k. they're
broken with blood, and Just as naturally
and coolly as the Belgian diplomats used
Ink In signing th treaties with Germany,
so the Belgian soldiers have used their
blood In trying to maintain the agreements.
