DEVICES ARE
USED IN HUN Retreat

With the American Army. Aug.
1S.-As our engineers clean up the
territory from which the Germans
have retreated they continue to find
hundreds OF Internal machines Of all
sorts. The favorite brand is to ar
range branches of trees looking like
camouflage in the door Of dugout
so that when they are brushed aside
1t sets off mines. Bombs of great
strength have been found In rubbish
piles which were to be burned.
Boards were arranged on area
ways so that the step Of man would
detonate the charge. In a number
of instances large number Of big
shells had been placed in pockets
under the roads arranged so that the
weight Of a passing cannon would
explode them. The most novel in
fernal device was to arranged barbed
wire entanglements so that attacking
troops would explode mines.
Not only did the Germans leave
their internal machines behind, but
poisoned food and water also marked
the departing of the hating Hun.
These methods of Hun warfare
were fortunately discovered early,
thanks largely to the previous exper-
ience of the French fighters, and
such effective methods have been
taken against them that little losses
have been caused to the Americans.
The following is a warning bulle-
tin to all our soldiers on this front:
Fuses. traps and internal devices
are employed by the enemy during
his retreat"
