along the German front. The pelt-

Of dust before them to mingle with
the smoke OF the bursting shells. AT
times while sections OF the German
lines we're blotted out by the slow
moving curtain OF dust and smoke,
and through the haze could be seen
the vivid orange fame Of still more
bursting shells and springing clouds
and pillars of still denser smoke and
dust.
THE believing thunder Of the
guns. the shrleks and screams and
whistlings and rumble Of passing
shells. the crash and growl and
thump OF the bursts have never ceas-
ed all day. Even now. after dark, a
steady volume of FIRE descends on
the German lines. the long roll Of
distant guns. the sharper kicked-bis-
cuit-tin bangs Of the nearer batter
les, the 'r-r-rump" and boom of the
shrapnel still continue.
The dark sky fiickers and winks
all round the horizon from the gum
flashes. As far as we can see TO the
north these flashes tell the story OF
the artillery's ceaseless activity along
the battle front; as far as the ear
can catch them to the south. the roll
and mutter and rumble of the guns
tell the same tale.
