With the British-American Armies
German deviltry seemed to know nc
bounds in the last days Of fighting on
the British front, after the linden.
burg line had been shattered. They
attached grenades to the bodies OF
dead Huns left behind in the German
retreat, so that when the bodies were
lifted the grenades exploded, killing
or wounding the bearers.
Near the town of lie Cateau, num-
Der Of Australian stretcher bearers
were killed by these grenades in at
tempting to remove some German
dead from the field from in front
Of an American machine-gun position.
Thereafter, no Australian would put
hand on dead German. In some
cases the bodies were dragged to their
burial places by means of a long
rope, which allowed the stretchef
bearers to keep out Of range of any
exploding hand grenades. --~
The Americans, on the other hand,
hit upon plan of making the Ger
man prisoners bury their Own dead,
In one instance a Boche prisoner was
summariiy shot Because he refused to
remove the body of one of his dead
companions. An examination of the
body later led to the discovery that
it was mined. The German was aware
of this fact and refused to touch 1t.
In one small town evacuated by the
Germans, many of the beds were
found to be mined. An American off,
Ger, tired and worn by hard fighting,
sought rest on lounge in room pre-
viously occupied by a German officer.
The lounge blew up and he was in

Another officer picked, up pair Of
field glasses, left by the Germans, and
was adjusting the focus when the
glasses exploded in his hands and
blew away part of his face.
The Huns had become adept in the
nefarious business of making Internal
machines, mines and time fuses, and
there was scarcely an area where the
electrical and engineering experts OF
the allies did not find some new form
Of their fiendiSh ingenuity.

WE NEED BETTER ROADS.

| One of the great problems confronting
| the American people now is to get back
| to normal conditions after having been
on war basis so long and SO thorough
| ". From five to ten million men will
be released from the employment they
have had, soldering, ship building, ma
king guns or ammunition, building air
planes and other work that belongs ex-
clusively to war These men must have
employment in other lines. We cannot
afford to have several million idle men
i'll the United States. We must keep
them busy for Satan finds some mis-
chief still for idle hands to do If
these men are not given profitable en-
ployment by which they can earn a live
lihood we may look for such scenes
as are being enacted in Europe where
soldiers return to their homes to find
no employment and no food and they
start revolutionary movements.
The federal government is urging
the states. countries and commemorative
everywhere to start some kind of work
that will furnish employment for these
men. In the west the building OF roads
81 being advocated. 1t should become
popular. If Idaho would raise by pop
ular subscription as much money as
she has given to the Red Cross and
other organizations for the relief of the
soldiers and invest it in good roads, en-
ploying men thrown out of employment
by the ending of the war to do the
work, it would be one of the best invest
neHt the state ever made.
If Latail county were to raise as much
money for road building as she has rails
ed for the organizations mentioned and
expend it wisely, it would mean much
to the county and every town i'll it. Let
us give this matter careful consideration
There must be work for all who want
