LUCKY FOR HIM.
Sin Douglas Haig loves a good story, and one of his favourites has just been related by one of the staff officers home from the" front. Sir Douglas has a habit of wandering about the camps at odd times to see that everything is in order, and on one occasion as lie was strolling past a tent lie -heard the angry voice of a sergeant threatening what he would do to; an.unfortunate private who had disobeyed orders. "It's lucky for you, my lad," roared the NC.O-, "that I'm not sure how to spell 'insubordination/ or else I'd report you! "
