Rainstorms, very heavy while they
last, between short spells of wind
swept sunshine, have fallen along the
front and our men are having a wet
time on those old battlefields which
again stretch for miles behind our
lines-our recovered ground; good to
US not because of any beauty, for
there is none, but because it is the
wide area for which our men fought
through these years Of war.
Their chief labor now is to mend
the roads which strike across that
desolation and to make easy the
lines OF communication which are
the arteries Of our material body of
war, and TO make some form of habi.
tation in this wilderness so that men
may get shelter from wind and the
headquarters staffs of divisions and
battalions may have dry places in
which to spread their maps and
write their orders 1t is an enor-
nous labor, and our engineers and
the pioneers and labor battalions
are hard at work in the rain and
mud that a ready is forming a sludge
over all this ground, making old dug
outs habitable again, draining old
trenches putting up new huts in
place Of those which have been
murned or destroyed by shellfre.
Here and there the enemy's re-
treat has been too hurried for him
to indulge in elaborate destruction
We found large numbers of new Ger
man dugouts, very deep and well
timbered Recent captured orders
from army Generals forbid German
4 officers to let their men use dugouts
more than eight steps down, and in
structipg them to board up or other
wise destroy the deeper kind, in
which their men have been too Otter
| trapped by our attacks.
The rain that is falling will in
crease the discomfort of our men il
