Supplement to LlNS «ND WiTCK. March 23. 1916. 
Another fine tribute to the 
World s best Fountain Pen 
This one is from a Gunner Subaltern 
B.E.F., France. 6.3.16. 
Gentlemen, 
The enclosed souvenir may interest you. It is my faithful 
old Waterman, now alas laid low. This pen has been in daily use 
since October 21st, igog, until a week or two ago, when it met with 
an untimely and sudden end. In addition to daily use, it has been 
on active service with me in France and Belgium for nearly eleven 
nionths^in the front Hne trenches — at the Normal Battery O.P. 
in the Battery itself, and back at rest. Last December 1 was sent 
as adjutant D.A.C., and I thought that the pen and I would end 
our days in peace, for normally the D.A.C.'s are for tactical reasons 
placed well back. Unfortunately I love my horses even better 
than my pen — and go to see them last thing every night. One 
morning my pen was missing, and later in the day my groom 
brought me the enclosed relic, trodden on by my favourite charger. 
Well, it is all the fortune of war, but I cannot do without a 
Waterman, so please send me another as soon as possible.

lished itself supreme for comfort, warmth and service. 
Up to February 29th, 1916, »ix thousand BritUh Military 
Officer* have purchased genuine " Thresher " Trench Coats. 
This fact alone makes it unnecessary to publish even a few of 
the many generous and extraordinary testimonials that have 
been received. 
SPRING WEAR. Even until the end of April the sheepskin 
lining provides the best protection against weather, and after 
then the lighter Kamelcott makes the Trench Coat the best 
all-round garment for Summer wear.
