The Mills bomb Is made of steel, the
outside Of which is corrugated into 4S,
small squares, which, upon the explo
sion of the bomb, scatter in a wide
area, wounding or killing any Fritz
who is unfortunate enough to be hit
by one Of the flying fragments.
Although very destructive and eff
ficient bomb the Mills" has the con-
f1dence of the thrower, in that he
knows it will not explode until re-
leased from his grip.
1t Is a mechanical device, with a
lever, fitted into a slot at the top,
which extends half way around the
circumference and is held in place at
the bottom by fixing pin. In this pin
there is a small metal ring, for the
purpose Of extracting the pin when
ready to throw.
You do not throw bomb the way
baseball is thrown, because, when in
narrow TRENCH your hand is liable
to strike against the parados, traverse
or parapet, and then down goes the
bomb, and, in couple of seconds or
so, up goes Tommy.
graspcd In the right hand, the left foot
Is advanced, knee stiff, about one and
n half its length to the front, while
the right leg, knee bent, is carried
slightly to the right. The left arm is
extended at an angle of 45 degrees,
pointing in the direction the bomb Is to
be thrown. This position is similar
to that of shot putting, only that the
right arm Is extended downward. Then
you hurl the bomb from you with an
overhead bowling motion, the same as
in cricket, throwing 1t fairly high In
the air, this in order to give the fuse
chance to burn down so that when
the bomb lands, 1t Immediately ex-
plodes and gives the Germans no time
to scamper out Of its range or to re-
turn 1t. f aE Ha-
AS the bomb leaves your hand, the
lever, by means Of spring. Is projected
into the air and falls harmlessly to
the ground a few feet in front Of the
bomber. .Na
When the lever flies off it releases
q strong spring, which forces the firing
pin into percussion cap. This ignites
the fuse, which burns down and sets
of the detonator. charged with fulmi-
nate Of mercury, which explodes the
main charge of ammonal.
The average British soldier is not an
expert at throwing; 1t is n new game
to him, therefore the Canadians and
Americans, who have played baseball
from the kindergarten up, take natu-
rally to bomb throwing and excel in
this act. A six-foot English bomber
will stand In awed silence when he
sees little five-foot-nothing Canadian
outdistance his throw by several yards.
l have read few war stories of bomb
ing, where baseball pitchers curved
their bombs when throwing them, but
a pitcher who can do this would make

CHAPTER I-Fired by the news Of the
sinking of the Lusitania by German
submarine, Arthur Guy Empey, an Amert-
can. leaves his office in Jersey City and
goes to England where he enlists in tho
British army.
CHAPTER II-After a period Of train
ing, Empey volunteers for Immediate serv-
ice and soon finds himself in rest billets
makes the acquaintance of the ever-pres-
ent "cooties."
CHAPTER III-Empey attends his first
church services at the front while Ger
man Fokker circles over the congregation.
CHAPTER Iv-Empey's command goes
into the front-line trenches and Is under
Ore for the first time.
CHAPTER v-Empey learns to adopt
the motto of the British Tommy, If you
are going to get it. you'll get 1t. SO never
worry"
CHAPTER vI-Back in rest billets EN-
pey gets his first experience as mess
CHAPTER v1I-Empey learns how the
British soldiers are fed.
CHAPTER VIII-Back in the front-line
trench. Empey sees his first friend OF the
trenches Ego West"
CHAPTER Ix-Empey makes his nrst
visit to a dugout in Suicide Ditch"
CHAPTER X-Empey learns what con-
stitutes days work" in the front-lino
trench
CHAPTER xI-Empey goes lover the
top" for the first time In a charge on the
German trenches and is wounded by
bayonet thrust.
CHAPTER XII-Empey joins the sui
eide club as the bombing squad is called.
Lots of times in bombing the "jam
tin" would be picked up by the Ger
mans, before it exploded, and thrown
back at Tommy with dire results.
After lot of men went West in this
~
something like this:
ITO all ranks in the British army |:
After igniting the fuse and before
throwing the jam-tn bomb, count
slowly one! two! three!"
This in order to give the fuse time
enough to burn down. so that the bomb
would explode before the Germans
could throw It back.
Tommy read the order-he reads
them all, but after he ignited the fuse
and 1t began to smoke-orders were
forgotten. and away she went in record
time and back she came to the further
discomfort of the thrower.
Then another order was issued to
count, zone hundred! two hundred
three hundred |" But Tommy didn't
care If the order read to count up to
. thousand by quarters, he was going
to get rid Of that "jam tln," because
from experience he had learned not
to trust It.
When the powers that be reaiized
that they could not change Tommy
they decided to change the type Of
bomb and did so-substltutlng the
'"hair brush," the "cricket ball." and
later the Mills bomb.
The standard bomb used in the Brit
ish army is the "Mills." It is about the
shape and size of a large lemon. Al
though not actually lemon, Fritz in
slsts that 1t is; perhaps he judges it
by the havoc caused By its explosion.
The Glenwood post., 1918-05-04

When the trench had reached a
depth Of two feet we felt safer, be-
cause 1t would afford US cover in case
we We're discovered and fired on.
The digging had been in progress
As soon as It was dark, Wheeler and
I crawled to our post which was about
halfway between the lines. 1t was
raining bucketfuls, the ground was a
sea of sticky mud and clung to US like
glue.
We took turns in listening with our
ears to the ground. 1 would listen for
twenty minutes while Wheeler would
be on the qui vive for German patrols.
We each wore wristwatch, and be-
lieve me, neither one of us did over
twenty minutes. The rain soaked US
to the skin and our ears were full Of
mud. d
Every few minutes bullet would
crack overhead or n machine gun would
traverse back and forth.
Then all firing suddenly ceased.
whispered to Wheeler, Keep your eye
skinned, mate; most likely Fritz has
patrol out-that's why the Boches
have stopped firing
We were each armed with rifle and
bayonet and three Mills bombs to be
used for defense only.
l had my ear to the ground. All Of
a sudden I heard faint dull thuds.
In low but excited voice l whispered
to Wheeler, 81 think they are mining,
listen"
He put his ear to the ground and
in an unsteady voice spoke into my
ear:
"Yank, that's patrol and it's head
ing our way. For Gods sake keep
STILL"
was rs still as mouse and was
scared stiff.
Hardly breathing and with eyes try
ing to pierce the inky blackness, we
waited. 1 would have given thou
sand pounds to have been safely in
my dugout.
Then we plainly heard footsteps and
our hearts stood still.
A dark form suddenly loomed up in
front of me: it looked as big as the
Woolworth building. I could hear
the blood rushing through my veins
and 1t sounded as loud as Niagara
falls.
Forms seemed to emerge from the
darkness. There were seven of them
in all. I tried to wish them away I
never wished harder in my life. They
muttered a few words In German and
melted into the blackness. 1 didn't
stop wishing either.
All Of sudden we heard stumble,
muddy splash, and muttered "Don-
ner und BlitZen." One of the Boches
had tumbled into shell hole. Neither
of us laughed. At that time-it didn't
strike us as funny.
About twenty minutes after the Ger
mans had disappeared something from
the rear grabbed me by the foot 1
nearly tainted with fright. Then
welcome whisper in cockney accent.
81 s'y, myte, we've come to relieve
you"
Wheeler and I crawled back to our
trench; we looked like wet hens and
felt worse. After swig of rum we
were soon fast asleep on the fire step
in our wet clothes.
The next morning I was as stiff as a
poker and every Joint ached like q
bad TOOTH but was still alive so It
did not matter.

AGENTS ARE PUT TO WORK
INSURANCE co. LIOUIDATES

Austin. Tex. Aug. 16.-Officials OF
the Royal Mutual Assessment 1nsur-
snco Co. Of Fort Wcrtn. 4 mutual. as
sessmsnt, accident concern organized
under the laws Of Texas. have official
y notified the department OF insur-
ance and banking Of their desire to
stop business AMI liquidate the affairs
OF the company. The following state
ment was made by the officials OF the
company as the reason for liquida-
ton:
The war seems to have had a de-
pressing effect upon the company and
its income at this time is negligible.
II seems that the local authorities
have decided. in the different commu-
mites, to put all agents 10 work or
have suggested that they enlist in the
army. all Of which is perhaps due to
the fact that the said agents remain
in the shade during the heat Of the
day and attend TO the affairs OF the
company in the evening and early
morning"
