After the second tour in this sector we again made a slight change in the line, giving up the "F" trenches and taking instead "G3", "G4," "G4a," "H1," "H2" and "H5," again relieving the Sherwood Foresters, who extended their line to the left.
There are also lever, g, which opens the principal injection cock, H1, and the auxiliary injection cock, H2, the function of which is to assist in forming a speedy vacuum, when the engine has been standing for some time. The drum is 6.08 m. diameter, the breadth being 2.04 m., with a total weight of 33,000 kilos. The beams are of cast iron with balance weights cast on.
That fact is that when H2 and O, instead of keeping far apart, get into closer quarters, say into the position H-O-H, they affect surrounding bodies differently: they now wet our skin, dissolve sugar, put out fire, etc., which they didn't in their former positions. 'Water' is but our name for what acts thus peculiarly.
The starting gear consists of a hand-wheel, H, which controls the stop valve, A, and of another h, which opens the valves for the jackets of the cylinders and receiver. The hand-wheel, h1 and h2, govern the valves, which turn the steam direct into the two cylinders.
Many stories are told of the great pride and assurance of our visitors, one of the most amusing being of an incident which happened in trench "H2."
This, at least, is the most obvious way of understanding the doctrine, and is the way I understood it in the chapter in my psychology. Superficially looked at, this seems just like the combination of H2 and O into water, but looked at more closely, the analogy halts badly.
The right of our trenches here rested on the canal, and could go no further forward owing to a small marsh that lay in front. But about the centre of the position the line swooped forward into a small and dangerous salient known as the "Duck's Bill." It was opposite here we proposed to attack, the actual objective being the high ground between points H2 and H3 on the map.
And we never called anything by its right name in the chemistry classes, you know; that was part of the er trick. We called water H2 or something like that. We called you J.H.U, Herr Professor." "What does that mean, Fraeulein?" "Jolly hard up," returned Marguerite, with a laugh which suddenly gave place, with a bewildering rapidity, to a confidential gravity. "You were poor then, mein Herr."
