But It was wrong to be a soldier in two armies at the same time. 4 ’ These were juvenile armies in my home town, a long time! ago. Each army was headed by a boy who called himself a “general.” Since both generals were friends of mine, I agreed to ‘enlist in both services when they asked me. Neither as far as IT can recall, exacted a loy- “a= general : whether I was in the ‘|: alty oath. Neither asked ‘serviee of a foreign power. One army had its headquar- ters on the hill and the other on the townsite. The two arm- . jes were not massed on cach others borders. There didn’t seem to be any possibility of conflict. So I attended parades of both armies. These were not frequent. In one army I was a corporal, In the other, remember rightly, ] was a ma- jor. * As a corporal, 1 was often as | ‘ not the only man on parade. - who | r except for the general, pub me through some drill.

But: they. lived anout 10 miles : away, sa the army — seldom mustered full strength, The general, who was ad- vanced for his age, sometimes set me tothe unmilitary task of pasting cut-out pictures of - girls in a serap-book, I didn't. think much of that.
