A French band was here and many notible officers. The ceremonies were very impressive. The U. C. Corps drilled in grand style, and showed up the other units. U. C. quartet sang. U.C. unit sang. Band gave concert. The greatest picnic I ever hope to attend. A man of other units broke arm while driving. Boxed Homes.

Another good day. Practiced rifle shooting in the morning In the afternoon went to Novron-Vingre where the Germans were driven out last March. The place is in absolute ruins. Not a single building of any kind left standing. Went through the old German trenches, dugouts, underground passages, and out to the first line trenches and noman's land. Got home at 9 o'clock. Lost the road
