ORGAN-GRINDING OFFICER. i i • An extraordinary story comes from London, where, according to the Westminster Gazette, two ex-officers have taken to organ-grinding. When seen by a representative of the journal' both men wore officers' tunics (on which were wound stripes), flannel trousers, and soft hats. He who turned.the handle wore also the ribbon of the Military Cross and tho silver badge and carried gloves. From the organ came the cheerful strains of a -Spusa march. On tho back of it. was this placard—"l9l4, I—Not1 —Not too", proud to fight. 1919—Not too proud to ask a 'gratuity." ' In- f a*dditk>n to gloves, . the organgrinder carried, a stick,-as he was limping rather badly. It. was for his benefit, his-companion said, that this desperate" adventure had been undertaken. ■ "I-am not'at the last gasp myself," he,.added, -"but I couldn't see my friend'go,-into the street by himself. He decided ;oir v this step''last night, and 'we took' oltf :hh& barrel-organ this afternoonr! Something had to'bo done. He cannot get .work, and he cannot get his gratuity. And he cannot live on a pension r of £20 'a .yeari" He" and the Organ-grinder joined up in .1914, rand-fought in Gallipoli. Afterwards they,, both-,.received... commissions in 'the.-same'regiment',-'-and fought in Fraiice. Both:"'were.wounded "at Passcheiidaele,? on October 26, 1917, and both;;.were; invalided- out of the Army .'through* wounds.: The ..organ-grinder was 21 years of age,l he, added, and .was at Malvern School--when war broke out, He did j notrwarit to leanon-his !'people." "And j how*>we're taking, the. orgamback," he &hc|udpd. :^W« idea the ex-. perience; would "hei'^q mjnpliating. All -the; moneyPwe haye"f;receiy'ed has- come from and%'poor :women.' One -poor ;f-woma.n,f. gave:, üb v a shillingr^-a woman who : 'worked in a laundry. Theise are the people who hand out., ijFrom the well-tordo... we .have not had Sixpence." But the job is too much ; fdr ?us,;.and now we're taking the organ back." • >
