YPRES INTACT AT ENDOF JUNE

Thonrout. No one knows what they
live on and the British soldiers have
been unable to capture them.
The dead silence that has fallen
here is broken only by the occasional
shell that stirs up the ruins, by the
German guns firing over the town at
Poperinghe, and by the musketry and
machine gun fire from the trenches
close by to the south. The silence is
oppressive toward dusk when the artil-
lery fire becomes desultory.
Get Close to Trenches.
Protected by the ruins, one may APP
proach so close to the first line as to
get a vivid auricular impression of
what is going on in the trenches. The
"Pang, Pangi Pang!" of the rifles
with intervals of the "Pang-a-pang-a-
pang-a-pang" of the machine guns be-
come more intermittent as night falls,
and then comes from the trenches the
surprising contrast of the refrain Its
q Long Way to Tipperary," with the
accompaniment of piano that the
Tommies dug out of the ruins and
reouisitioned for evening diversion.
The final destruction of Ypres fol-
lowed the attack with asphyxiating
gas. 1t is the common belief in Bel
GUM that the wiping cut of the town
was a premeditated revenge for the
failure of the effort to occupy it.

or for the batteries in the rear might
easily stray into the town. but. they
say, tie aim of the Germans is good
enough not to waste in that way the
thousands of tons of ammunition re
quired to reduce the place to stone
heap and the only military importance
of the town is its proximity to the bat
tie front.
Counting the shots that went wide
of any structure, it is estimated that
more than 100000 shells of different
calibers were spent on Ypres. Thou
sands more were used during the gas
attack along the route from Ypres to
Fumes by which the Allies were ex-
pected to send reinforcements. All
along the road for a few miles, deep
funnel shaped holes. sometimes on one
side, sometimes en- the other and ostcn
full in the center, still show how Sc
ricusly the operation was organized.
The eventual restoration OF Ypres
raises conflicting views, all of which
originate from sentiment, for the town
had long ago lost all commercial inn
portance The attachment of the in
habitants to the soil calls for restora-
ton and to this is opposed the feel
ing that Ypres must remain as it is
Ia monument to the suffering of
Flanders. If the town is rebuilt, say
many OF those who loved it for its
traditions. let it be farther on along
the banks of the User, while the ruins
of the ancient town remain enclosed
within monumental walls for the world
to see in ages to come.
