WORK AT THE FRONT 89 



to where our men are bearing the real burden and dangers of war, you think 

 of our \^•ar beasts of burden that night after night traverse that foul and

 their share in " carrying on." Can you wonder that there is real affection 

 for the horse and mule, and that they are indeed the friends of man at this 

 tremendous crisis ?
